During my last visit to Buffalo Wild Wings, I was immersed in a fantastic experience filled with their signature wing sauces, traditional and boneless wings, accompanied by some great bar snacks and sides. Their sports bar atmosphere truly added to the overall fantastic feel.
Here's a fun fact about Buffalo Wild Wings, or as we fondly call it, B-Dubs. The original name of the restaurant, when it was founded in 1982 by two food enthusiasts, was "Buffalo Wild Wings and Neck". Imagine my surprise knowing this little trivia! From their humble beginnings, B-Dubs has grown into a massive franchise with a presence in all 50 states in the US! To learn more, I decided to visit the Buffalo Wild Wings website: https://www.buffalowildwings.com
The Hunt for Buffalo Wild Wings
Buffalo Wild Wings, this 1980s born franchise that spread its wings (literally) across the United States, has over 1,200 locations as of 2020.
