Passing through and I stop in here for a beer. Cramped little bar in an old train depot that seems like the townie spot in a town without much else going on. So, I'm looking around and notice they brand themselves as "best wings on the planet"... well, okay, I mean, there are a lot of holes in the wall that have some of the best stuff. Now I wasn't really hungry but I gotta at least try these-- so I get another beer and order a half-dozen. Get up to go the bathroom and come back to find some guy has helped himself to my seat. Whatever, I'm just waiting on the wings now. Should be out soon... right?
So I'm standing there for about 5 minutes when the bartender finally gets back around to me. She sees what happened and and tells me she'll get me another seat (How? Since te bar is pretty full) and sks me if I want another beer. I ask how much longer on the wings and she says they're coming right out. Okay, never mind I'll take the check.
Now I'm standing there another 5 minutes waiting on them to ring me out and waiting on the food still. Then the other bartender comes by and asks me if I need anything... well, how much longer are these gonna take? He says he doesn't know and walks away and suddenly this guy (the same one who took my seat) jumps and starts getting in my face over what, I have no idea. Some complete random who starts calling me all sorts of names and basically trying to start a fight. I'm just like... is this serious? Takes 10 seconds to figure out he's completely plastered. meanwhile, absolutely no staff are even trying to intervene from this clown basically accosting. Maybe they don't know what's going on.
Finally, I get away from him and move to other end of the bar. And, again, here we come "Do you want another beer?" At this point it's like-- mine as well. I'm starting to question whether these wings even exist. So the bartender comes back hands me the beer and says, "I don't know what that was all about." Oh so, they are aware that there was that this guy trying to start a brawl in their bar, they simply decided to do nothing but keep serving him. "He's sh*itfaced," I tell her and she walks away like she didn't hear me. Now mind you, this is only like 7 PM at this point.
As I'm finishing that beer, low and behold here are the wings... this is easily 30, maybe closer to 40 minutes from ordering! I pay and leave. Later that night, I warm them up a little and dig in to the most average, plain jane wings you could imagine. The kind that you'd get at just about any restaurant in the country. Nothing remotely special and nothing that it should take a ridiculous amount of...
Read moreInteresting place Casey’s is, especially for a first timer. Total townie bar. I personally had a horrible experience on a Thursday evening. Arrived at 8:50pm, went up to bar and asked if i could order a beer, the woman said sorry, no. If you’re sitting up top you’ll have a server. Okay, so we sit up top and wait. We waited 20 minutes before getting served a beverage. When we were all set to go & get our check, we went downstairs since our server was chatting with someone downstairs for 40 minutes to pay our tab. The woman at the bar downstairs told us that we had to pay with our server and could not pay with her. Mind you this woman was only tending to the bar and making the other woman take care of the whole rest of the place. The woman brings up another beer, my partner says no we do not want another beer, i asked for the check. This whole shenanigans that was supposed to be a quick stop for a beer turned into over an hour. To be fair, my beer was decent! I would not recommend Casey’s to anyone who is on a time restraint, or who is...
Read moreBest wings on Earth?! Not so much. If you are at the pub, drinking, and more likely a lot of alcohol needed, it is possible that these might not make you as hungry as you were.
I drove 20 miles just to try these wings. They barely had any taste. I ordered 3 types, Mable Bourbon, Garlic Parm, and Sweet and Spicy.
What a disappointment. They were small, had the black freezer burn, and they seemed baked where any amount of sauce would not stick on them. In fact, I had more sauce on the outside of the togo boxes than inside on the wings.
They have to do a lot better just to beat Market Basket's wings than to claim what they claim. There is no way they are in the conversation of good wings, never mind being even close to a contender to claim top prize.
I would happily pay $10 for 6 meaty, cooked well, meaning good crunch, and great tasting wings.
I paid $30 for 3 types of wings....
