davefan66 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Brother lives an hour away from Fredrick in Severn. Psyched to hear about this. Disappointing to hear other franchises failed, especially if they aren’t training at the original. Throwing beef-on-weck, Labatts, and “Buffalo” wings on a menu doesn’t make it good. Gotta do it right, expatriates know the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richmond_Bills Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 To chime in on the Richmond location - HORRIBLE. Went 1 time - service was AWFUL. Got some wings, beef on weck and some kind of other app. A few beers - $90!!!!!! Me my wife and 2 teenage sons. Had such high hopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiotAct Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 had Anchor Bar at the airport a couple of years ago with my wife. Decent wings, but WAY overpriced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owner, Kirk, was from Tonawanda. Then he sold it and it was never the same. The memories... ? Was that in a plaza off of independence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Thank you for all the critiques. When I’m back in town, Duffs is my preference. But being an out of Stater now, ANYWHERE that offers Beef on Weck with a Buffalo theme is a place I’ll visit. I hope they heed the critiques and up their game. I’m willing to pay a little more for the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Exit 31 A from the west Its all muscle memory for me. From Brunswick take 340 West to 70 / 270 cross a lane and take the latter of the first exit.

I used to travel and went to a lot of bills bars while on road and one in vegas was awesome. I'm pretty sure Naked City Pizza in Las Vegas opened up about 5 or so years ago, but not 100 percent sure. I don't think it's been there for 15 years so you're probably thinking of a different spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 9 hours ago, machine gun kelly said: I didn’t want people to think I’m an advertisement as I have no stake, but it is called Mothers, in zip code 33626 of Tampa. Not only BOW, but also phenomenal wings, and they use Prime Rib vs. Roast Beef for the sandwiches. Every friend I’ve brought there loved it. It’s not a cheap restaurant, but is a very fair price, i’ve moved away from beer these past years, so I would imagine they probably have Labatts, but again not sure. Their entire menu is great, and game day is really fun. So much fun that even though I have the Ticket, will often go there for the first half to hang with Buffalo transplants, and get my BOW. Can’t forget the Woodford Reserve on. The rocks, with two limes. The best is when you treat the glass like a Margherita, but instead of salt, you use raw sugar cane. Turn upside down, then add what I mentioned. Adding soda, or anything else to Woodford is blasphemy, Only one as driving, but great sipping whiskey. Not cheap anywhere as high end. As much as I’m Irish, I prefer it over Jameson’s. The only one better for you Irish Bills fans is Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey. It’s a tradition in my family for generations it is broken out after the funeral breakfast for a family member lost, and after all the crying, we honor them with a sip of the aforementioned, a toast, and telling funny stories about them. Sorry for the tangent, but if you ever get a chance for that drink, you will love it. BTW- I know where Fredrick, MA is located as I took my oldest son on recruiting trips to Mt. St. Mary’s as they were offering a full ride in lax, and Division 1. He declined, but a really nice place to visit. Although i am not irish i do like a tequila every once & again & thanks for the heads up on the place if i get there this yr maybe we can do a shot during aa Bills game with some wings or a BOW . GO BILLS !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the Beef on Weck is a hand carved slow roasted Top Round. As opposed to the food service sliced roast beef that some places use. I'm sure the wings will be fine... that's how the Frank and Theresa franchise rolls. If it's true buffalonian BOW....then they get it shipped down in sealed bags from JH Dodman Meats on Michigan St. Dodman is also the supplier for Andersons.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 (edited) The negatives here are unfortunate. Very few of these places survive. It's either because of the quality of the food, the lack of familiarity with the food, dearth of ex-Buffalonians in the area, location, or a combination of the above. But some of these places were sorta neat. For instance, there was a bar in Old Town Alexandria, VA called the Penalty Box. It was owned by a former Sabre who drew a lot of penalties during his career. It even had seating in penalty boxes. But it had negatives as well, such as the food and being on the second floor of a building. Charlie the Butcher should come to the DC vicinity (where Frederick, MD is) more than once a year. 17 hours ago, Hurricane said: Anchor Bar sucks... So does duffs... Give us some positives.

pennstate10 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I've lived in MD for the past 20 years. Best wings I've had here were from Shuckin Shack, a hole in the wall on Market Street in DT Frederick. As good as the ones we used to get at Lebros in Getzville.

Ironically enough, there was a sports bar in that location prior to Anchor Bar. You'd think they would've learned their lesson. Not visible from the road/no signage and at the back of Stony Point Fashion Park where nobody could see it was a bad idea. Hard to find unless you knew what you were looking for or have been to that mall before. A lot of people didn't even know it was there. That, coupled with the poor service, substandard food, and high prices sealed its fate from the start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
