What that means for your kitchen

Anchor Bar — Birthplace of Buffalo wings — is not the same kind of operation as a counter-service kitchen, and it does not have the same technology needs. Formats that different — Wings, then Wings at Duff's Famous Wings — put very different demands on a menu, a ticket rail and a delivery hand-off. A menu covering Buffalo Regional, Polish and Italian puts real pressure on modifiers, prep stations and how orders reach the line. That is the case for owning your own ordering channel in Buffalo: the menu, the customer list and the margin stay with the restaurant instead of a marketplace.

Delivery and pickup zones in Buffalo tend to be drawn around areas like Elmwood Village, Allentown and Downtown Buffalo, plus 3 more across the city. Zones, fees and prep times are set per area, so a Buffalo restaurant can price a short hop differently from a run across town.
