Mammoser's

Our server was great. The atmosphere however was fine as a old time tavern but the only problem I had was the bathrooms were not very accessible as well as smelly, but clean enough to use. We ordered salad to start and was immediately disappointed! 2 slices of tomatos , 2 slice of cucumber and 2 slices of onion (not exaggerating) The special house sauce wings were very spicy (the menu does state that it is spicy) even tho we ordered mild, I only ate 1/2 wings and couldn’t risk a stomach surgery! My husband ordered citrus BBQ and he enjoyed it. The side vegetables were very very sad and looked like the were picked up at the back of a fridge and put on our plates. Bottom line will not be returning nor recommend to visit just for the reasons above!

Be prepared for a wait. However if you go with good company and the right expectations you won't be disappointed! Great wings and their hot and medium sauce are really different and very good. The wings were large and the perfect combination of saucy and crunchy. Mild is very dry though, don't bother. My wife enjoyed their roast beef sandwich and the fries were generous portions. Our waitress was serving too many tables and assisting as a bartender as well but honestly as a group of 8 we really didn't notice too much. Don't go on a weekend if you're in a hurry.

We had a wonderful experience at the bar, great service with a very attentive bartender, and the food was very delicious! The wings were excellent and well cooked the beef on weck did not disappoint! Hand cut fries were a nice touch too.

This place. I think they have the best wings on the planet. I drive more than 2 hours to get here just to have wings, buy a jar of sauce, and head back home. I have never had anything like their wings. The heat and the flavor are just perfect. And the fries. Omg the fries.

There were 7 of us. My husband and I had the fish fry. Three people had the chicken fingers, two had shrimp dinners and one had a fish sandwich. I can deal with, and accept slow service, especially if there’s only one waitress. However, mine and my husband’s fish was awful. I could barely cut the fish with my knife it was so tough. It actually tasted like it had sat around for a while then reheated. I chose a salad as one of my sides. That was fine but the ranch dressing wasn’t even cold and it was lumpy. We weren’t going to not leave a tip because it’s not the waitresses’ fault that the food wasn’t fit for public consumption. We decided to add this place to the very short list of places we won’t go back to.

If you find yourself in Hamburg, New York—not Germany—you should try Mammoser’s. A wood-paneled, sticky-floored, Midwest house-style bar, this place has made a name for itself with its wings. The Buffalo resident is a fickle consumer of wings. They can be neither soggy nor too dry. The sauce can't be too hot or too vinegary. God help you if a wing joint assumes you wanted ranch. But in true Buffalo fashion, they’re too nice to ever put a place down. Mammoser’s is a dark, calm corner of the world I feel I could retreat to anytime. The wings aren’t saucy in the traditional way, but instead rubbed with a mostly dry seasoning. I can see whole pepper flakes coating the wings. I bite into one and rejoice at the flavors and textures from the crispy skin and perfectly cooked chicken. I tear the bones out of the flat as I continue to eat like a Bills-loving caveman. Before I know it, the wings are reduced to a bowl full of bones, and I'm leaning back in my chair, wiping my hands clean with a moist towelette. It’s like I just remembered I live in 2025 instead of 2000 BC. Buffalo wings are food for any occasion. I've eaten them after breakups, graduations, Super Bowl parties, and at funerals. And if you have something going on in your life—good or bad—you should sit down at this place, drink a beer, and eat some wings in multiples of ten. Make a stupid joke to the bartender, and for a moment, just think about how nice life can be.

An ok place. I found my fish fry really oily, which is really not acceptable in the Buffalo, NY area. Nice location in the village, but atmosphere definitely is "dive bar" (which has it's own charms). Not a place that I'd say, "don't ever go there!" But there are multiple better options within only a few hundred feet walking distance. I would hope to improve this review next time I go there, but I just don't know when that will be. 🤷‍♂️

Clam shower was good. Wings took almost 30 minutes to come out, I asked for extra crispy, they were not crispy and the wings had a Chilli power and red pepper flakes on them. No sauce at all!!! Drinks were cheap.

Correction on my previous review. You order them Jimmy Carter style here. A bit messy and very hot so beware. But excellent. Service was fast and friendly. We sat out on the back patio. So quiet and relaxing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

I'm not gonna lie... it took every last bit of me not to order wings tonight. I ventured outside my comfort zone here and just got a fish sandwich. Hands down, the best fish sandwich ever had. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the wings here but this sandwich was AMAZING. Get it with Swiss, you won't be disappointed; lettuce , tomatoes and onion too. Tarter not required but it's like sprinkles on ice cream.

I came here last night with my boyfriend. This is a small dive bar in the heart of Hamburg. We each ordered a beer. I had a peach beer and he had a shandy. I hadn't been there in years. My boyfriend hadn't been there at all before, and knew they were on the wing trail, so he wanted to check them out. We had ordered onion rings as an appetizer. My boyfriend ordered their medium wings. He prefers hot but it stated on their menu that their wings were much hotter than most places. He's glad he ordered their medium wings. They were a little dry but he liked their heat level. They were still very good. I had ordered the burger, which came with fries. Both were very good, especially the fries, which were homemade. We each had another beer. Three of the four beers were comped by the waitress. She was nice but never told us when we sat down, that they were very short staffed in the kitchen. Our food took about an hour to come out. We weren't happy about that but devoured the onion rings when they came out. They were amazing!!! I was happy that the beers were comped, since the food took so long. The service was good too. I'll definitely be back in the future to try more of their fare.

Never been here before, as I do not live in the area. Met some friends here. Very low key and laid back atmosphere. From what I gathered, you just kind of seat yourself in the dining area. You can order from there or the bar area it does not matter. I got a burger which was very good. My friend got the chicken finger salad and other friends got the medium chicken wings and the bourbon wings. They said the medium was more hot, so if you want a medium, get the mild. The bourbon wings were a bit sticky but delicious and I would definitely get again. Parking is on the street and there is a parking lot across the street w limited parking. Spots are reserved for different things. If I'm in the area again I would definitely go back. Prices are decent. I recommend

I went on a Saturday night and service was pretty quick. Lots of options of local favorites like beef on weck and chicken wings!! The lighting was kind of low but we had a nice size table for our group. The dining room is outdated and I would consider it to be a dive bar but it has a nice size bar to sit at when you first walk in. I would say they need to change the fryer oil as the food was dark and didn't taste fresh as it should have been.

Horrible service, watered down drinks and restaurant is filthy. Wanted to try the wings but didn't have hours to spend waiting.

Driving through Hamburg, wanted some wings... so the obvious choice was Mammoser's. They didn't have an IPA, but they did have a pale ale, which is pretty much as good. Got us a couple of Bell's Two Hearted Pale Ale's. Ordered wings and they were able to split the 10 into two different sauces. My wings were pretty crispy but the mediums weren't. If you like crispy, you better ask for extra crispy. Their sauce is spicy and hot. Medium is hot and hot is extra hot!! The Beef on Weck was piled high with meat, the most I've had anywhere. I liked the finer ground salt on the bun. It was also very lean and tender. The rings were good as well. I would have liked something to dip them in, in a perfect world! I'd give Mammoser's an overall "pretty good".

Back to our hometown for visit #8 on the Wing King's tour. Known for their dry-cook style, Mammosers goes back a LONG way in this town. As fellow Hamburgers, it's really tough to throw shade at a village institution like Mammy's - so we will tread lightly with this review. Sauce: (4 / 5) BBQ flavors carried the day here. Great tangyness with both heat and sweet. This is where the dry rub style shines. Medium wings could have used some sauce, any sauce. "These pretzels are makin' me thirsty!" Meat (4 / 5) What is going on here? The plate of 50 had a bunch of weirdo shapes and many were very light on the meat content. Cook (4 / 5) Mammy's walks a fine line in this category. Their score, particularly in the category, is extremely subjective. Because of their dry rub, twice cooked style, these wings come across as quite dry. We felt they pushed the line between dry and chewy... a bit of controversy here. But we had unanimous agreement they didn't do a perfect, consistent job, regardless of the uniqueness of their cooking style. At the end of the day, love 'em or hate 'em, Mammy's wings are truly unique. The beer flows pretty good here and the proximity to home more than makes up for any shortcomings. Overall, Mammys appears destined for a middle-of-the-road grade. Final score (12 / 15)

My friend ordered the hot dry rub, which is what they are supposedly known for. Let me tell ya, they are HOT. I'm usually a medium-extra-crispy man myself, but these were great. I had to use an abundance of bleuch (bleu cheese), and it was great, wings were great. Very hot. Service was good, bartenders were fun. Ambiance is beautiful. Great, small tiny dive. I love it here.

I googled "Best wings in Hamburg," and ended up here. Just got takeout, so not really sure how the service is there, but the wings were GREAT. Good size, good crisp, plenty of sauce and HOT. Definitely need to go back and dine-in this time

Not really a super fan of their wings. We stopped by here on a recent group trip to continue our adventures on the Buffalo Wing Trail. Place was packed (which we assumed was a good sign) so we ended up eating while sitting / standing in the bar area. For the group, we ordered their hot "spiced" wings as well as the medium BBQ. Then for good measure, we got some pizza rolls (a favorite with this gang). We waited a pretty long time, and then all the food came out at once. The hot "spiced" wings were way too much heat for us, but more importantly they were served cold. The medium BBQ wings were much better and warmer, served with a tangy sauce and a kick. The pizza rolls had a weird pepperoni inside them and a thin marinara sauce for dipping. Overall compared to many of our other stops on the trail...not impressed.

Mammoser's has been on my list of places to try for wings for many years. My boyfriend and I stopped here before joining friends at a different location. It was a Friday around 6pm and we grabbed a table outside. The entire experience took about 45 minutes, which was great because we didn't have time to dilly dally, as we were already late for meeting my friends. The bartender was also our server, so he was working super hard, going back and forth from the inside to the outside. We each ordered 10 wings. I went with mild, extra crispy, he went with medium, extra crispy. The wings were absolutely delicious and I liked the sauce. My one gripe was that on my last wing, I found a hair fried into the wing, which was why this place went down two stars. The experience up until that point was really great though.

Wings were amazing. Medium was a bit spicier than we expected but great with blue cheese and carrots. Service was a bit slow.

Easily the worst chicken wings in WNY. These could possibly pass in Florida or other states, but not here. Chicken wings were 'dry rubbed' without sauce. The chicken fingers were worse. No flavor, just heat. I will not be returning.

Best wings in town. This place is frequented by mostly locals. I only say a bar seating but someone mentioned they have tables somewhere else. Now to the wings. This is a dry rub style (not buffalo sauce) which I enjoy more. I feel it allows the spice blend to matter more rather than just eating hot sauce on wings... They have a bunch of beers on tap, but fridges full of different bottles as well. Great spot!

Great wings, great people, great times. Staff is always friendly and welcoming. A Hamburg staple.

Checked another box on the chicken wing bucket list today We made the 30 minute drive out to Mammoser's today for some of their famous wings. The sauce isn't the typical franks mixture but more of a spicy pepper hot sauce and it was GOOD. Packed a ton of flavor. Their hot was some of the hottest wings I've had but the medium fell super short with like no sauce at all. I wish they had somewhere in between like an extra medium. Hot = 7/10 || Medium = 5/10 I will say I absolutely loved the feel of this bar. Total divey look. Dim lights, wooden everything, and the curtains from 1979 are still up. I love it.

Internet listed closing as 11pm. We arrived at 10:30pm after a Sabres game and the place was closed. What gives?

Omg- YUM. These wings are amazing. We got a mini beef on weck, and wings special. SO good. It also came with friends. The wings are just perfect. Nice nd crisp and sauced to perfection. The beef on weck is also always delicious. This is our favorite place to get wings in Hamburg!

Very much a dive bar but possibly the best wings I've ever had. There was almost no wait. The ambiance is that of an old time neighborhood bar. Definitely not a fancy place, but, at least for wings I highly recommend.

Stopped in with my son who is in from Lexington Kentucky. He always wants wings. This joint is on the wing trail and is highly recommended. No doubt that it is. Really good wings. Decent beer selection and the ambiance is, well, historic. Great service. We were happy with everything and I'd definitely return and recommend this establishment to everyone.

Place smelled like grease. I think there was no more than two employees because our bartender also served us our food. The wings and the chicken fingers were over cooked and petrified, they were also ordered Miles and we're way too hot in terms of spice. Our burgers came out, cold as well as the fries.. They ran out of blue cheese and had to run next-door to a restaurant to borrow some . And although the menu had a whole page of seafood options, we were told there was no seafood or chicken to order. Credit to the poor bartender, who did sweat his ass off and try his best to accommodate. If you took a trip to the bathroom, he would wonder if the health department has been in there at all to even check this place out.

Things have been going downhill here since Covid. Arrived on a Saturday night and the place was empty. Ordered the spicy bbq wings and chicken fingers. Wings came out barely hot and under cooked. Fingers were ok but had a strange oily taste. Very disappointed. I guess they can't get good help and based on the head count and food quality I see why. Won't be going back unless I hear they've turned things around.

These are not Buffalo wings unfortunately. They are frozen, over cooked and barely a 3 on a spicy scale. Staff is nice but they can't save this place.

I do love the vibe of this teeny dive bar/restaurant in the village of Hamburg . I heard they have good wings, so we decided to grab a bite after a wine tasting next door . Got a table early (later that evening we may not have been so lucky) and our server was cool and assisted us with their casual but extensive menu . Two beers were ordered. (one Oktoberfest, one stout) What really made me happy was that I could do a single order of wings with all flats ! No up charge either! My friend opted for their breaded fish Fry with fries and coleslaw. The food came up pretty quickly and the wings were tasty and ordered mild (tasted about medium ) with more of a dry rub (not really saucy) . I prefer a crispy but saucy wing (Bar bill excels at this) but I could see the appeal of their dry rub approach . My friend liked her fish Fry (with fresh cut fries) but prefers a beer battered fish. (they did not offer one ) The restroom downstairs was very cramped but clean (watch out all tall people to not bang your head or limbs) . Some of their chicken sandwiches sound appealing, so I would definitely come back to have a beer and try something else on the menu.

I've heard it said more than once - Mammoser's is the place for wings in Hamburg. So of course, I had to go try them! I have to say, they have perfected their wing frying. There was absolutely no grease on my plate. They were crispy on the outside and hot and delicious on the inside. I ordered mine as "hot", even though their signs say that their hot is hotter than most. It wasn't a lie, it surely was spicy. They make their own wing sauce and normally I really like thick wing sauce but I personally did not care for theirs. Personal preference. It reminded me alot of the sauce at Potter's field where there is a taste of nutmeg or clove that I don't care for. My husband loved the sauce though! I wish I would have gotten them as BBQ because the table next to me got it that way and they looked yummy!! My biggest grievance is that the menus say wings are $13/10...which is expensive on its own, but then the waiter told us that the menu is wrong and the price is actually $15/10 (temporarily, he said). The guy working behind the bar may have been the only guy working! Which is both sad for him but equally as impressive that he still managed to keep a smile on his face and work the entire restaurant. The drinks were decently priced.

Well as usual , out with friend and in Hamburg area looking for something different besides same ole restaurants we visit , i had heard of this place but never came to it . So I asked friend wanna check it out ? Sure they said so as we pull up to location I was thinking to myself ,Ooo Ooo! It didn't look like I had anticipated, hope I hadn't nDe wrong choice (dinner location / food wise ) walked in and loved the old type tavern nothing fancy ,but just the nostalgic feeling of who had lived there or what the location had been used for in early days ,, sat down around 4 pm place had one group eating ,, still skeptical, but after we ordered the fish fry , it was great ( seafood platter ) portions were huge and salad wasn't iceberg ,as most fish fry places serve and it was good size side salad . Definitely will return to try other foods . As we were almost done the dinner crowd started arriving perfect Timing . Place has like 8/10 tables seating like 4 to 6 people at each table , plus separate bar area and have specialty craft beers meal for two of us was 43$ fish fry's and tea definitely worth the price

As you scan down all the reviews you see "wonderful wings" at Mammoser's. They are also known for their fish frys. What happened to the Mammoser's known for their chicken wings & fish fry? It has been awhile since the last time I ate there, so for a Friday summer evening patio meal we decided to go to Mammoser's. We waited an hour for my fish fry. When it arrived, it was as hard as a rock. Breaking it open, you'd need glasses to see any fish. I sent it back. The second serving had the same cement (not just crunchy) coating, with a "bit" more fish that was as dry as cotton. I couldn't finish it. My dinner companions who recalled a really good Rueben sandwich in the past said tonight's was not very good either. (they tasted and thought the fish was lousy too) Between the long wait and bad food, Sorry this night has warned me from going there again. Sad

Mammoser's is a hole-in-the-wall dive bar. It is dark. It is dank. It has questionable cleanliness, with a few buzzing flies to corroborate this observation. But it embraces its hole-in-the-wall status, and isn't trying to be anything other than what it is. As long as you are okay with that, if you are a chicken wing eater, you should definitely give Mammoser's wings a try. I am no longer a wing eater, but on the night we stopped by my husband went for their signature dish. The price is reasonable for wings these days, at $11 for a single order of ten. They are served hot and crispy. Sauce choices are simple: mild, medium or hot of their own signature homemade sauce. The friendly barkeep warned us that hot is hotter than most hots, as it is a special recipe, not your typical Frank's and butter. So my husband went for medium, with a side of the hot sauce so he could dare-to-dip a few wings. The sauce has a darker, richer, grittier consistency. I took a small dip on a fry. And indeed the server was correct--hot is EXTRA hot here. But it was a curious hot, definitely a different heat profile from other hot sauces. My husband really enjoyed his wings, which were cooked just how he likes them, with some crisp on the outside, and soft and juicy on the inside. They weren't huge wings, but not tiny either. As for me, I went with a large garden salad and a side of fries. The salad was big, filling up a large oval plate, with lots of fresh cucumbers, chickpeas, radishes, and tomatoes tossed in mixed greens. The fries were really good too; they seemed home-cut and were soft, the way I prefer them. We ate in the dining room, which is small and scary. There are dead animal heads on the walls, which as a vegetarian is not my favorite scenery when dining. (FYI, I did see patio seating out front for warmer seasons.) After eating, we moved over to the bar for a while to watch the end of a hockey game. Plenty of TVs to enjoy a sporting event here, with a small bar that accommodates I'd say about 15 chairs, or so. I noticed at the bar you can purchase jars of Mammoser's signature hot wing sauce, which I may grab as a stocking stuffer for the hubbs the next time I'm nearby, as he did enjoy the unique heat of their blend. If you are in the quaint Village of Hamburg area, looking for a quality wing to enjoy in a local dive atmosphere, Mammoser's definitely lives up to those expectations.

I am a Hamburg local. I went to eat at mamosers and I want to preface with I have worked in the restaurant business for 10 years; I tip well and don't disrespect restaurant staff. I arrived at 9:15 pm and asked our server when the kitchen was open until and the server told us until 11pm. We ordered two single order of wings, a small fry, and a beer. While waiting for food the kitchen staff begins screaming "tell them to get the fuck out they are the last people here, here are their fucking fries." Them yelling about having to cook the food went on for around five minutes. After having enough, we told the bartender we want to leave and to cash us out for the beer. He asked us to stay and we went out on the patio so we did not have to continue listening to the kitchen staff be irate about frying a double order of wings. I've honestly never experienced something like this before in a restaurant. I've never felt So uncomfortable ordering food and then attempting to leave and the server asking us to stay. Here is the kicker I still tipped 20% . I'm sticking to the pour house where the beers and food are consistent & the staff are kind , attentive, and respectful. Cheers!

This place is amazing The wings are super crispy and delicious. The beef on weck is fantastic as well. The only negative is the underwhelming beer selection. But eat the wings, eat lots of them, they are great!!!

Best Wings in the area in my opinion, and yes i'm a big fan of bar bill. The BBQ wings at Mammosers are just different.. Love the dry rub medium as well.

Great food and even better service. Great local dive bar with incredible dry rub wings.

I had to stop in Mammy's as one of my old haunts from the 70s. It's expanded into additional space to the south......but, the original barroom is changed little. There's no Gus, but the worn bar and stools are as comfy as ever. So....nothing fancy. Just an old school, nostalgic slice of Hamburg. Wings have a different twist with a dry rub versus the traditional soak of Frank's hot sauce. Mediums were perfect. I spotted a local with the fish fry and it looked awesome. Nice selection of beers on tap - even a Mammoser's Oktoberfest.

Was in town for a family reunion and craved some wings . To say these were good is a colossal understatement . These are some of the best I've ever had and it turns out it's a local well known spot . Highly recommended

Wings used to be amazing here but, after the past few years, something happened. The actual wings seem like they aren't cooked all the way anymore. I'm not sure if it's something with the oil but, there's other places to spend money on for good wings.

So I had to do a complete rewrite on this place. I went to "the pour" across the street gps took me there... However I thought I was at this place. Once I left "the depression" I realized I had been at the wrong spot all night. I wanted to Pursue this place because I had heard it had the best buffalo wings in the area and brew selection! It definitely does! While I was there I met some really nice couple and had my dinner and drinks with them which they treated me to! I had the 10wings standard small size and I the sampler of tap choices all were amazing! This night definitely made my week in west New York one to remember Great wings! great environment! Great beer! Great people! Can't say the same about "the pour"

Situated in the heart of the village of Hamburg, this little place is serving up some of the best wings! My husband & I went in for lunch, right around the noon hour. It happened to be a Saturday, so we got the Saturday special: Buy a double, get a single. Great deal!! He ordered hot, I ordered medium. Fair warning, the hot is truly HOT! My hubs usually eats extra hot wings & struggled a little with these. He said the heat lingers a bit. I refused to try them. The medium, however were perfect! Great flavor, nice and crispy. It's not a sauce they use, more like a dry rub. But man, is it good!! The food came out quick and our server was very friendly. She gave us a little history of the place. The bathroom was an experience in and of itself. I'll leave it at that. I don't want to ruin it for you. Parking was a little difficult too, but the food was worth the hassle. In other words, if you happen to be in Hamburg, NY...stop by Mammoser's Tavern. You won't be disappointed!

Called for takeout wings. We visited a few years ago and my husband loved them. I was surprised at the total. I asked her to repeat it because I couldn't believe it. $24.50 for a double order of little, dried up wingsThis is our last time there unfortunately. And being hotter than normal wings...our 3year old are one no problem. Barely a spice to them. Kind of feel taken!

We thought would try Mammosers again . The bartender was quite rude .We used to come here quite often ,but this is the last time. This is just not the same place it used to be.

Really delicious dry rub wings with great service! This place has some of the best wings in buffalo !

The best wings in the greater Buffalo metropolitan. Well worth the trip! It can get a little crowded but it is worth the wait when the wings arrive.

Old fashioned village bar. Not my kind of place, it's basically the "corner tavern" from Cheers or something. But I'm sure people love this place for what it is. The only reason I go is to get wings for take out. They are (IMO) within the top 5 in WNY.

Rude , rude, rude ! We finished our wings and ordered a couple more pitchers of beer . The server brought them and told us they need the table so we had to get up and stand with our beers in the small bar area SMH . We were not lingering, we just finished and ordered pitchers of beer ... the bartenders were also rude only pouring for the obvious regulars at the bar . Two stars because wings were good.

People rave about the wings. We sat at the bar (the only place to sit in this small corner bar environment) and ordered fries and wings. The service was excellent and friendly. The fries were great and the wings were a good size. The wings have a very distinct flavor. They are not like traditional buffalo wings. They had a flavor of chili lime. I personally didn't enjoy the flavor as much as a traditional hot sauce wing. I'm not going to hold my personal taste against them so I gave 4 stars. If you looking for something different (that many people like) you should give this place a try.

Small hole in the wall bar/restaurant. Great wings and for a great price. Nice date night place, kind of a grungy vibe nice laid back place. Would definitely go back!

The wings are very good -- the sauce is original and really is spicy and the BBQ wings have a nice smoky flavor. One star off because I'm still partial to my favorite wings at the Bar Bill, but these are a fun alternative.

Best wings in town!! We ordered their chipotle BBQ wings, very tasty. The banana peppers are delicious! The cheese blend is perfect. They also have very good onion rings. Can't wait to go back.

Great wings but overpriced and service is a disgrace. People of Hamburg go hear for traditions more than what your getting it's more for people who really just are in routine. But I will say there hot sauce is best I. Ny won't find a better sauce. You can actually buy it. I would suggest that for sure.
