The pub in Ltown is pretty good.

I had Pizza hut wings the last week.......surprisingly very good buffalo flavored hot wings...

Old Town Pub in Leonardtown is Awesome in my opinion. I used to always get the Old Bay wings until I was introduced to the Steamed Crab wings...which are now my favorite with a tall Magic Hat #9. Great place, great people.

BWB leonardtown

Just to try to clear up the confusion about the name change from BWB to Mary's Place and some of the reasons for this change. We made the decision to change based on the cost of the franchise fees vs. the pluses of staying a franchise and felt that the benefits were not worth it.
We removed the pool tables, because as one of you posted, some our customers were turned off by the loudness and the language. Instead we have decided to carry interactive video activities that our customers can play for their entertainment such as Wii bowling, tennis, golf,etc. and guitar hero as well as the dance dance revolution video games.
We are also featuring daily happy hour food and draft beer specials, including $1.00 sliders (Mon) $.35 wings (Tues&Thurs) $1.00 tacos (Wed).
Monday is Military Night 10% with military ID (reg. menu items). Thursday is Teachers night 10% with school ID (reg Menu items)
Wings will remain our specialty, however our menu has changed. We have eliminated items that did not sell well, but have retained the those items that we were known for such as our subs, burgers, wraps, and our out of this world cream of crab soup. We will be adding some new items and for the most part are keeping most of our same suppliers since there were only a few items that the franchise supplied that we will no longer be able to get.
We are also in the process of bringing in live entertainment and would appreciate any feed back that you can give us on your thoughts about these changes.
Thank you your interest, and we look forward to you coming in to let us serve you and your family

Keep those XXX wings, or something similar. My friend can eat habaneros and remain sane, but those wings made him sweat and tear up. (Not that I want to see my friend in pain, but I know he and others have a hard time finding wings that are just killer hot)

Good luck, guys!

I won't miss it if it does shut down. Crappy wings and even crappier service the one time I tried it. Not to mention the $.50 charge for extra dipping sauce. Can anyone say ripoff?

somehow I don't think changing the games will change the language said when playing those games. but it sounds like you'll be offering something a little different so that could be interesting.

they could always charge you $.50 extra for the wings and give you the dipping sauce if it would make you happier. of course, the people who don't want that extra sauce probably wouldn't be too thrilled. why should you get extra for the same price? feeling a sense of entitlement, perhaps?

For the very same reason that a majority of restaurants offer free refills on their beverages.

Sorry you feel that way, but I appreciate your honesty. Most of our customers love the wings. If you can somehow verify that you are the author of this post, come in and try us again and I'll give you your choice of a free lb. of the wings or an appetizer, just for giving us another shot at your business.

I wonder how many people you are going to have coming in and saying 'Hi, I'm Glitch from the forums...'

Is a Buffalo Wild Wings really going up in the park? I thought it was just a rumor! I might cry!
