Ames BWW opening March 21st

[RayShimley]

Yeah it's a bit over-priced. No they are not the best wings in town. I'll still go there to watch away games because I like the atmosphere and they always have top notch TV selections and are good about getting the games you want to see. If that place is not DECKED out in Cyclones gear I will be severely dissapointed. Even though it is a chain, this location needs to set itself apart as the "Iowa State BWW".

One other big benefit, the patio. Not enough patios in Ames. I frequent West Town Pub in the Summer just for the chance to sit outside on a nice day.

Getting excited over BWW is much like getting excited over your next bowel movement. Strangely enough, the two are connected.

You dont get excited for your bowel movements?

 

[mac4cy]

get there when the day they open and get in line early. They usally give the first 100 cutomers or so wings for a year.

This is true. The BWW that opened it Urbandale had people there at 11:00 that night before they opened to be the first 100 customers there. Crazy stuff. I do love their wings. I usually get them to go so I don't have to worry about the service. Plus the beer is cheaper at my house.

 

[Cytom5]

ahhh I could go for 18 traditional medium lightly sauced with ranch and an Ice cold coke.

I am trying to decide what is more overrated, BWW or Whole Foods. People get so darn excited about chains coming in, BWW is not that great.

I see what you're saying but I'll take Whole Foods every time.

I happen to be taking one as I type this.

Also, CARIBBEAN JERK BONELESS WINGS FTW

 

[ThatllDoCy]

I have never been impressed with BWW. Food is average at best.

 

[sunnysideup]

ahhh I could go for 18 traditional wild overly sauced with blue cheese and an ice cold beer.

Corrected

anyone tried BWW's new menu items? I think they added a couple big burgers and the Southwest Flip.

the SW Flip is a good time. basically one of their flatbread pizzas folded over on itself - but just plain good.

and my go to is the Boneless Honey BBQ - wet.

I'm extremely hesitent to try anything other than wings at BWW. I ventured away two time for ribs, and they were hands down the worst ribs I have ever had. I only tried a second time because the first time they were so awful I figured they just got messed up, but they were the same poor quality both times!

fool you twice?

not really a rib fan - so I've never tried them.

just order boneless, wet, in either Caribbian Jerk, Honey BBQ, or Mango Hab ... and enjoy heaven.

Best wings in Ames used to be at Peoples...nothing would beat going there on a monday to get wings cheap and stay for the cheap beer for the monday night game. Loved Peoples special sauce!

 

[huntt26]

Love the atmosphere and boneless wings at BWW, but I ordered off the menu once, and will never do it again. Yuck.

 

[Broodwich]

Cool. Good for Ames. It's almost a full-grown Big 12 community!

I just hope this doesn't imperil the HOT N ZESTY wings at West Cyde. Those are my local favorite.

 

[TruClone]

Only if west cyde wings can improve their service. I love their wings, just can't stand getting ignored while I am there.

Deodorant?

2 words: Fried Pickles!

 

[Naughtius]

I'm not a huge fan of the franchises either, but you can (usually) bank on what you get. I travel on business, and consistency can be attractive.
Beyond that, it's all about the staff.

Hells Yeah.

Give me 12 boneless wings with the Hot sauce, an order of fried pickles, a day full of football and keep the beers coming!

 

[Al_4_State]

Hells Yeah.

Can you keep that under $100?
