Buffalo's historic Anchor Bar to franchise

In partnership with the proprietors of the original Anchor Bar, the Anchor Bar Franchise Company will be offering three unique restaurant concepts. Full-service replicas of the original Anchor Bar will be the largest of the three. Each will feature the Anchor Bar's famous wings, sauces as well as a comprehensive upscale menu based on that of the original restaurant. With full bars and entertainment, these restaurants will recreate the fun atmosphere and experience enjoyed by thousands each year at the original Anchor Bar. Replica restaurants will provide a unique dining opportunity for patrons who have never had the opportunity to visit Buffalo. The restaurants' upscale menu has been designed to meet the American taste profile. Food offerings will be diverse, ranging from Buffalo wings to traditional American favorites such as meatloaf and pizza. From the menu to the decor and the audio and visual entertainment, each restaurant will offer a uniquely Buffalo experience.

Designed for locations with less space, the Anchor Bar Franchise Company will also offer a smaller version of the replica restaurant concept. Called Anchor Bar In-Line, they will be approximately 2,500 square feet and offer beer and wine, original wings and an upscale menu.

For the fast food market, the company has created the Anchor Bar To Go. A take out only location, customers will have the opportunity to enjoy the original, famous Buffalo wings and other menu items at malls, at sporting venues, on the road or at home. Anchor Bars To Go will be 900 to 1,200 square foot take out locations, perfectly designed for store fronts and walk away counters at malls. Original wings will be offered as well as an upscale take out menu.

"The Anchor Bar is known around the world as a place where people come to enjoy the original Buffalo wings, great food and be entertained," said Ivano Toscani, the Anchor Bar's Executive Chef and Manager. "Regular patrons and one-time guests alike can't get enough of our food and Anchor Bar atmosphere. We now have the foundation in place to start bringing our special approach to food and our uniquely Buffalo experience to the rest of the country."
