Buffalo Chicken Wrap:  romaine, bleu cheese, cheddar croutons, carrot ribbons, tomato, red onion, celery, bleu cheese or ranch dressing Edit: No cheese, chose ranch dressing instead

Oh wow, yum! Will definitely be going back for this one, it was FANTASTIC! Really great chicken, excellent distribution. All around quality BCW. Best BCW I’ve had in quite some time.

THE SCORECARD:

Overall: 9/10

Chicken: fantastic, crispy

Sauce: their famous sauce 

Chicken to vegetable ratio: heavy chicken, well balanced

Wrap: panini’d perfectly crisp

Temperature: room

Spicy Chicken Wrap: buffalo chicken strips, lettuce, tomato, & ranch dressing

I had high expectations for this one for absolutely no reason other than the vibe of the local watering hole, and it did turn out to be delicious. They also serve Shake by Boulder Beer on draft, which is a winter favorite. Cozy AF.

THE SCORECARD:

Overall: 8/10

Chicken: so well fried, so much 

Sauce: excellent flavor and the right amount 

Chicken to vegetable ratio: the only “complaint” is that the wrap was basically all chicken. A BCW should be a heavy chicken skew, but not entirely chicken

Wrap: Thick at the ends but held together well

Temperature: room

THE SCORECARD:

Chicken: Chicken was good but not plentiful

Sauce: Ranch dressing which dominated the flavors, not much buffalo spiciness

Chicken to vegetable ratio: lots of lettuce and tomato, along with the Ranch made it more like a salad

Wrap: substantial and held up to the end which I appreciate
