Draconator Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 I'm at the Bar at Main and Hamlin. They are diagonally across the street from BarBill in East Aurora. The place is owned and operated by former BarBill employees. Ladies and Gentlemen, their wings here and 100% far superior than anything BarBill can serve. About a 10 minute wait for a seat. The hype is real. Go there and see for yourself 2 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Never heard of it. Did they open recently? I searched it after seeing the thread, and good lord the food looks good from the pictures.

When I went all of the wings were cooked at a central location and sauced at the stalls. Not a good time if you like crispy wings. I’ll never go again.

Never tried it though. 100% true. If you follow the home made recipe it’s more flavorful and creamy. I think it’s because if they made their authentic ranch it would sell less when healthy conscious buyers saw the fat content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know if he was just hyping it up a bit as it was "his" spot but now it is sounding legitimate. Will have to check it out as I love Bar Bill so if this place blows BB away those have gotta be some pretty damn amazing wings. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
