New Anchor Bar (Frederick MD)

Recommended Posts

You have no idea how excited I am to see the inside wall of the new Anchor Bar opening in Frederick Maryland.

Beef on a Weck and no one will look at me like an alien when I order one!

That looks awesome! The coolest little Bills Bar I've visited is a place called Naked City Pizza when I took a vacation to Las Vegas. It was featured on Diners, Drive ins, and Dives. It's definitely a DIVE, but an awesome place with great pizza and an owner who's a die hard fan and a man of the people. I would recommend it to anyone visiting Vegas.

That’s awesome.  We have a restaurant/bar where you can get a tremendous b on week down here in Tampa and shocker the owners are from Buffalo.  There is also a place next to it that has real wings and I’m always skeptical.

 

i love seeing the Bills fans and games featured on the best TV’s even though I have the ticket.  Nice to have a small piece of Buffalo when you don’t live there anymore.

 

I’ll have to find it on my next business trip.

you should visit, Frederick was on someones top ten small towns in America list.  65k people, 40miles to Baltimore, 40 Miles to DC.  Nice San Antonio style canal walk, several breweries, nearby wineries, a new distillery.  Great place for a one night excursion.

You forgot to tell us the name of the place so if we go there we can wear our Bills gear & feel right at home when we order our BOW !!

 

I'm always looking for good restaurants because my job takes me on the road & i always dig finding a good Bills bar to go to ...

As a Buffalo Outpost: I wish them much success.

 

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.

The anchor sold out when they started franchising. 

 

Opened one in Rochester, it was so bad, it closed in less than a year. 

 

Product is terrible and unfortunately the emblems on the wall are the only thing that resembles Buffalo in the place. 

 

Not recomended. Not even the original.

It figures. I lived in Frederick 23 years and just moved to FL last year. It would have been great to have a local place to watch Bills games, although I expect the food might suck.  This is in the place that was the Tilted Kilt. 

 

 Frederick is a great little city. The historic downtown is special. Fabulous restaurants and bars.

Where in Florida are you? You may have some nice Bills options there. Bills Country South.

The one here in Richmond folded quickly, as well. It was delayed in opening...seemed like it took forever. Then, it was gone in the blink of an eye. They were overpriced which probably contributed to their quick demise, too.

Has it been there for at least 15 years? I used to travel and went to a lot of bills bars while on road and one in vegas was awesome.

They opened one in The Venetian in Vegas..............it was open less than a year............I asked one of the Casino managers about it..........they said they never paid a penny of rent!:lol:   

 

Yeah the one in Rochester.........slimy, undercooked wings.

 

I don't get it...........it's not that hard to make decent wings.

 

Maybe they will get better?   Or the ex-Buffalonians going to the Frederick one will help them get the wings right?

They opened one in Richmond VA.  It was awful.  The food wasn't even close, the service sucked, and it was way too antiseptic.  There were tons of Ex-NY'ers there when it opened.  And they failed from the jump.  It folded in less than a year.  Can't even say how disappointed I was.  Flat out terrible.

 

Poor manager was walking around getting feedback on opening weekend and was getting blasted with negativity from almost everyone from the Buffalo area.  We asked him if he had ever been to Buffalo, or even went up to see or train at the original, and he said no.

 

Brutal.

NOTHING will ever top the Township Grille in Matthews, NC... in the 90s, it was THE place to be for Buffalo sports with wings, beef on weck, the whole 9 yards. The owner, Kirk, was from Tonawanda. Then he sold it and it was never the same.

 

The memories...

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.
