Restaurants on Gamedays

Quick question. I have two season tickets this year and will be coming to Buffalo and back down to Maryland same-day each week. I'm pretty much bringing a new person with me to each game, and most of them have never been to Buffalo. Is there anywhere decent we can go after the game for traditional Buffalo fare (you know, wings and weck) without TOO much of a delay? Appreciate any insight.

That is a lot of driving. Be safe.

Bar Bill in East Aurora hands down best wings and good beef on weck as well, its not too far from the stadium just have to go east on Big Tree Rd/20A  about 9 miles but it is a smaller place and you could wait a while to get a table. Worth the drive though

This..

Schwabl's is ~6 miles from the stadium and has very good beef on weck.

 

Went there straight from the airport when I goi in yesterday. As good as I remembered! It’s not that big, so I don’t know what it looks like on a game day. Also not too far from the airport if you’re  flying.

Last time I went,  thought both the wings and beef were phenomenal.  Could be a wait to get in though.

Mighty Taco and Blasdell Pizza.  Schwabls is awesome, but this is other cheap options.  Unique to Buffalo.  

MIGHTY TACO? He said that he will be driving back to Maryland after the game. A meal at Mighty Taco will result in having to stop at every Sheetz in PA to use the facilities, because he and his friends will be suffering from "the sheetz".

He didn't specify driving or flying. They could take out a whole plane full of people locked in that flying tube of contained air! That should be on the FAA list of banned materials....but how do you test for it?  

 

I might hit there tomorrow....

 

What is wrong with me? I thought maybe stopping at the Mighty Taco on the way to Duffs tomorrow might be a good idea to check all my boxes, but I might not live till kickoff if I keep this up.

Beat me to it.... for beef on weck this is the best spot. No wings. But there's a Duff's a few miles from the stadium for that too.

 

Bar Bill is overrated and if heading to the airport, out of your way. 911 and Doc Sullivans in South Buffalo have great wings, 911 is a probably too long of a wait, notoriously slow.

This sounds like a crazy undertaking. That's leaving at like 5 to be safe every Sunday and getting home at 1? Am I wrong?

 

Hope you enjoy it, but wow that sounds like some long days. 

It's going to suck balls, no doubt. It's 4.5 hours one way.

Yessir, with the exception of the Monday night game

Bar Bill for sure. -Shortest drive of all of the top shelf possibilities.

Went to Bar Bill last year about a half hour after a home game. It was somewhat busy but not crazy like I’ve seen there during their regular prime time hours.

I used to drive College Park to Amherst, and it was more like 6 hours.  But that was 40 years ago. 

 

I drive 6.5 one way to games.  Drive there on Saturday, back after the game. 

 

I think i will try Bar Bill tomorrow.

 If Bar Bill is packed you can always get take out from their counter around back and walk into Aurora Brew Works next door for a craft beer to go with the food. They’re happy to let you do that.

Im 252 in NNY. Bot as bad as I thought. I do it for every game. I always turn it in 1 day and am home by 10ish after the games. Usually stop for a bite out of town.

 

Also download the Waze app if you have not yet. Works great for letting you know where the traffic is flowing best and any police/accidents /potholes/detention due to traffic.  It is a community like this and everyone on the road can warn you of the above. Best GPS money can buy and it is free on your smart phone.  Got me out of a ton of traffic jams by offering detours before I got to them.

Charlie the Butcher's (main location) was awful. The beef was room temperature, the bun had almost no caraway seed, and the sandwich was served without au jus on the side. Flabbergasted. MUCH better beef on weck at Duff's in Depew last month.

I never understood why people say Charlies beef on weck is the best, much less good. Way better off going to John & Mary's for a sub.
