Buffalo Wild Wings

Awesome. I usually dont do chains, but I was super surprised how great the service and food were. Went with Caribbean Jerk and Thai Curry! Naked tenders and a salad were great.
My big gripe?! Garden Crasher…9 bucks?! CMON SON!!! ANYWAY, I would go here because Springfield has few great places right of I 55!!!

On a trek to my cousin’s wedding, my party found ourselves hungry and in Springfield, Illinois. We initially found 2 diners, but their menus had nothing besides the infamous ‘Horseshoes (Thick Toast, Hamburger, Gravy, etc…).’ We had no desire to chow down on gut bombs, so we drove a bit farther and found a few chain restaurants. We decided on BWW due to their menu diversity.
Although the menu is not huge, there is something for everyone. My mom ordered a buffalo chicken wrap, with chips and salsa on the side. She finished it with no problem! She said the salsa was ‘unique,’ which I think means she liked it.
My brother and I decided to split the Garden Crasher appetizer. Definitely not worth it. It comes with carrots, red peppers, celery, hummus, olives, and naan bread. I crunched on the first 4 items, and my brother hit the olives with the veggies. We did not touch the tzatziki or naan bread. This part of the meal was my only complaint… 9 dollars for 20 sticks of veggies and hummus. A huge ripoff! That’s what we deserve to attempting to be healthy.
Onto the positive… I (along with my brother) ordered 6 naked tenders with a side salad for our meals. He went with the Caribbean Jerk and Thai Curry for his sauces, while I opted for Mild and Parmesan Garlic. The naked tenders were excellent with the sauces. The Parmesan Garlic is my alltime favorite! I hadn’t been to BWW since boneless Thursdays in college (I’m old now… wow); The sauce is boss.
Being in the Chicagoland area, BWW gets lost in the shuffle due to all the great dining options around. I don’t think I will underestimate the quality of BWW again!
By the way, the staff was great. No complaints there. Same thing goes with the appearance of the restaurant. If you are in Springfield, or you need a break off of I-​55, head here!

I love the Asian Zing wing sauce. Service is usually great and the staff is friendly.

I love buffalo wild wings! Great service, friendly staff and filling food choices. The bartenders at the bar really know how to serve those drinks also. The bartender Wil is a mad scientist with alcohol and can practically make anything you ask for. Love love love this place :)

I’ve been to bee dubs all over the country and I’ve been consistently disappointed. This branch breaks the trend in a very good way. I’m here on a near-​weekly basis and I’m always met with friendly service and good food. This BWW is also the most popular place on the Northend, regardless of time-​of-​day or day-​of-​week.
