Alright my next blog as promised, my next place up on the list is Mammoser's Tavern and Restaurant on Buffalo Street in downtown Hamburg.

Mammoser's is set down off a little roundabout in downtown Hamburg, parking is a little tight with not many spaces in the lot across from the bar. The exterior is well kept and inviting, upon entering the lack of space is the first thing you confront with not much room between the patrons sitting at the bar and the wall to the left. It has a very nice and well stocked bar that stretches from one side of the room to the other, with plenty of stools to sit at. Aside from that the first thing I noticed was the greeting and hospitality from the bartender and the waitstaff, they were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Being a Saturday night we had to wait 45 minutes for a table in the dining room which was very cramped, but well furnished with plenty of televisions for watching the Sabres games. We had a few drinks while we waited and the bartender made sure to keep our drinks full and the conversation flowing, the service here is top-notch. The restrooms are located downstairs for the men and off the dining room for the women, so after a few drinks guys make sure you locate the handrail before attempting to relieve yourselves,lol.And for us somkers we unfortunately have to sit in the elements. 

We had ordered two double orders of mild and crispy, while my brother had ordered a single of barbeque. The excellent service continued aas we waited at our table for the wings to arrive, the waitstaff coming by every few minutes to make sure we didn't need anything or to just shoot the breeze.

Upon arrival the wings looked great, meaty, cooked to perfection and waiting to be devoured. The only suggestion I have for Mammoser's would be to add just a touch more sause to the wings, they were a touch on the dry side. The order of barbeque my brother had was perfect, rich and dark barbeque sauce glistening on the wings looked really great and according to him they tasted just as good. The mild was cooked to perfection, with a nice crispy exterior and juicy meat within, it didn't take us long to devour them all.

Overall I would definately recommend Mammoser's to any wing lover and bar lover, excellent service, great wings, ice cold beer, and a very uplifting and friendly atmosphere make Mammoser's a great place to spend a Saturday night.

Ok so as I mentioned we have three places so far that we have been to for wings, Limericks Bar on route 20 in Hamburg, Mammoser's in downtown Hamburg, and Riley's on Orchard Park Road in Orchard Park.

First off Limerick's, I had been going there for quite a while with my father up until three weeks ago when we decided to start this blog. The location is pretty good with off street parking right off route 20, and plenty of parking for 20+ cars. Upon entering it is a typical bar scene, it does have a feel of being slapped together with the pool table, dart board and digital jukebox crammed into one small area in the back of the bar. Seating at the bar is pretty cramped with tables right behind the patrons who like to sit at the bar, which can make getting to the restroom quite the adventure! They do have a decent sized dining area to the right of the entrance as you walk in, but in all my visits it was rarely if ever used. If you happen to be a smoker there isn't much options for you besides standing in the parking lot.
The service at Limericks is good, with the bartenders being friendly but slightly stressed seeing as they also do all the cooking. Even amidst this there is good communication between the bar staff and customers, there is minimal wait to get your drinks which is a definite plus in my book!
Now onto the wings, they were VERY dry, no sauce at all. I had ordered them mild and a little crispy, what I had recieved was a dried out wing that crackled when i picked it up, biting into it was worse than the visual. It tasted burnt, no hint of mild sauce whatsoever, and tasteless, I might as well have been eating a piece of drywall...thank god for the beer!
Overall it was cramped, with typical bar lighting, boring but not coma inducing. Basically a good place to go if you just want a quick beer after work, I would not recommend it for the chicken wings at all( but I hear they make a mean burger, which I will have to try in the near future)

Why I am doing this.

Well to start I think that chicken wings are a very integral part of being a Buffalonian, we have more bars and restaurants than cities twice our size. Everything from fast-food chains to family owned bars, diners and even five star restaurants, so I thought it to be a good idea to give a sort of guide to newcomers and lifers here, a go to guide for wings. Personally I like to go out for wings and beer with my father and brother every weekend as a sort of stress relief from the daily grind, so far we have three places we have analyzed for this blog. It breaks down into a few easy categories: location, establishment comfort, service, and bang for your buck.
