Buffalo's two sandwiches of record

Buffalo wings are fried chicken wings tossed in hot sauce and butter, served with blue cheese and celery. Beef on weck is thin-sliced roast beef, often rare, piled on a kummelweck roll crusted with coarse salt and caraway, with horseradish on the side. Many places on this list serve both.

The 19 on this list

15 wing places and 9 beef on weck stops, some of them more than one. They're in 1 region of the state. The longest at the same address: Eagle House Restaurant in Williamsville, there since 1827; Glen Park Tavern in Williamsville, there since 1887; Schwabl's in West Seneca, there since 1942; Duff's Famous Wings in Eggertsville, there since 1946. 234 other places in the app's directory have “wings” in their name; they're in the directory and the web search, but not on this list until we check them.

How the list was built: In October 2026 we looked up every place here in a 2025 or 2026 source (the shop's own site or menu, a dated post, local reporting, or a tourism listing) and matched its address. No current source, no listing. Review sites played no part, and the order is by region and city, not by anyone's rating. Menus and hours move, so call first.

A New York City place carries the Health Department's letter grade and the date it was given, wherever we matched one; elsewhere in the state, the latest state or county inspection, where one is published. In the app, this list puts the nearest places first, with Apple Maps' live card a tap away for hours and photos.
