Archie Moore’s

188½ Willow Street, New Haven, CT - (203) 773-9870
This neighborhood bar, now with five branches around the state, was the first to bring Buffalo wings to the Nutmeg State. These wings are meaty, fried to perfection, and sauced without excess. Start with a plate of wings and pick another excellent appetizer, like their Pulled Pig Nachos or Bottlecap Sliders. Be sure to take home a bottle of Archie Moore’s wing sauce, original or extra hot, available in grocery stores across the state.

The Buffalo wings have been deemed “Best in the State” for good reason: meaty, crispy, and lip-smackingly spicy.

Archie Moore’s also serves a milder honey BBQ variety for those who can’t stand the heat of the originals.

Pecan pie with chocolate chips was not as delicious as it sounded, though we Roadfooders have very high pie standards to satisfy.
