My wife and I ordered door dash from this location because we both put in 12 hour shifts at work and didn't want to leave the house to get food. They completely forgot to bag her food and only bagged mine. She called, spoke to someone and they said "yeah we have your food here." We went and picked it up, MILES from our house. It was COLD, not fresh, and the employee handed it to here and said "here you go" not an apology, not fresh food, not a refund, not a credit for a future visit. Totally rude, uncaring and disrespectful staff. We will NEVER eat here again. Such a shame that this place is supposed to be the premier wing spot... they don't show it with how they treat their customers. We will get our wings from Applebees next time, at least it will be fresh. This place blows chunks. read more

After order a mean for myself and my husband for delivery through DoorDash, my chicken Caesar wrap was not bagged with the rest of our food and not given to our DoorDash driver. I called and they still had it at the restaurant so I drove to pick it up. I did not get any sort of apology or acknowledgement from the business. My food was disgusting. It was cold and they threw a pickle in there which got juice all over my wrap making it soggy. There was no dressing on the wrap. I drove all the way over there and wasn't even offered an apology. Save your money for a business that cares! read more

The hostess sat us outside which was fine. Lovely day. 15 minutes later, no waiter, no waitress, no one walked by to ask if we have been helped. Bye bye. We got up and left and spent our money elsewhere. Too bad. Looked like a nice place from the street. read more

Can't make an old fashioned at all. Dirty bar, sub par service. Not enough bar tenders or wait staff. I was there at 430pm on a Thursday.

I went during the second week they were open. They were clearly still working out the kinks. The beer was tasty but took a while for service. The service despite still clearly learning the menu and system was very friendly and hard working. The wings were great and we were able to try many different flavors within one order. They have about 10 flavors but they are all good. The inside is beautiful. I'll be back. read more

Food was good, not busy when we were there. Sat in the dining room, it's definitely loud in there, lots of TV'S, but do they all have to be on so loud when we were the only ones in the dining room? Typical bar. I have been to the anchor bar in Buffalo and their original restaurant is set up very differently. They have a bar area with TV'S, but then they have a dining room free of TV'S and you can enjoy your food and hear your dining partner talk. This anchor bar would benefit from that arrangement. read more

Very nice location. Parking is available in the garage a couple of blocks away. The bar is very bright and clean. Service was good and the food was great. You've got to try the pizza logs. read more

I know this is Loudoun but the beer prices were crazy high and the food tasted like typical bar food, wings were tasty but nothing I couldn't make myself. Expectations are low in Loudoun, but the prices make it unreasonable for me to be a repeat customer. I wish them well. read more

After thinking about it some more and taking the owner's rude response to my review into consideration, I'm dropping this down to one star. The food was bad, they had like four or five beers in their inventory when I was there, and I think they overcharged me. That's got "one star" written all over it. read more

Given that this place is the namesake of the mother of all chicken wings, I would have expected something more. It's not that the wings were bad. Au contraire, the wings were good. But they weren't I have died and gone to heaven good. They were just good. We got all drumettes and they were nicely sauced -- although I would have liked a little more bite to them. The atmosphere is very much like a neighborhood joint. And their beer selection is great. The service was quick and efficient. I will certainly go back, but I don't think Anchor is any better -- or worse-- than other local wing spots. read more

Eh! Ok but not crispy like I like my wings. Maybe that's me. And slightly better than the Leesburg buffalo wing factory but that doesn't take much because that place is awful compared to the other buffalo chicken wing factory places. read more

Ok. Just got a coupon in the mail for these folks. To any manager at Anchor, please tell me why a waffle breakfast + sausage + two eggs + home fries costs $23.48 when the same meal at IHOP costs $12.69? You charge 2x what IHOP does? Your ambiance can't POSSIBLY be that good. If it included bottomless mimosas then, yeah, maybe. But double? And why don't you open for breakfast until 9 am? Anyone with kids will be up by 7 am. read more

An hour and a half. It was an hour and a half from when we placed our orders for dinner (wings and salads) to when we received them. When we asked our (accommodating, sweet, and helpful) waiter to bring out the manager so we could speak to them, the manager came out FULL of attitude. He was extremely combative, sarcastic and rude, saying "thanks for your opinion" when we mentioned how long our food was taking. He was holed up in his office not helping his staff whatsoever. In addition, there were dirty dishes stacked at the bar so high it was attracting flies and was terrible to sit next to. Not professional at all. Tables weren't clean, they ran out of silverware, napkins, food, etc. Overall, the food was good, but the negligence and attitude from the manager made us not want to go back. When there's a group spending ~$300, you may want to hear their complaints... read more

Great spot and amazing wings! So many tvs too so you'll be able to watch your game easily. Overall great sports bar and service!

I've been to the Anchor Bar in Buffalo and this one in Leesburg is not at all the same. Ordered the signature Buffalo Wings and what came out was an abomination. When I picked the first one up the skin was rubbery almost steamed and virtually no sauce on the wing itself. These resembled bad hotel, baked from frozen wings. I could barely eat one and all of them had the same horrid consistency. They do not in any way resemble the wings on the website or the menu. Frankly for all the hype I was hoping for something out of the park. What I quickly realized was that there are at least a dozen places in the area that actually have much better wings than Anchor Bar. In fact, I would describe these as bottom of the barrel. These shouldn't be served to anyone. Also tried the Philly Steak and Cheese which couldn't have been more boring and executed with less skill. Boring was a theme as we tried the Anchor Bar Dip which was tasteless, looked congealed and the tortilla chips bordered on stale. I have no idea who's running this location but they are seriously damaging the Anchor Bar brand and should get their heads out of the proverbial place we all know. So disappointing. The only bright spot was our young server Hannah, she was a gem. read more

See all

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS SPOT WAITED 45 MINUTES AND THEY FORGOT TO INCLUDE THE WINGS!!!! Ordered earlier in the day for 20 wings and some tots. Showed up at 5:25 for a 5:30 pickup. Waited 45 minutes. Finally got the order and it didn't have the wings. Asked for a manager and a refund. They "took down my information". Called back to speak to a manager... still couldn't get one on the phone. They said they would refund us at the "end of the night" This isn't the first time this location has botched my order. Go to Buffalo Wing Factory or Buffalo Wild Wings instead. This place over charges for mediocre wings. Plus, apparently they have no manager to refund you when they forget the main part of their order. I never post reviews one way or another but this is now over an hour of my Saturday night devoted to trying to get money back for an order I never got after waiting for 45 minutes. Save your time and money and go ANYWHERE ELSE. read more

Had a wonderful time and great food during their opening week! The service was excellent and the food tasted great. Really awesome atmosphere inside and extensive menu. Will have to try other things besides the wings, which were quite tasty. read more

Food is awesome and the service was good. Great ambiance, wings, pizza and beef on deck.

Original buffalo wings? Is so, our grandparents are rolling over in their graves. Came specifically for the original medium bone in wings. Left wishing I went to Chiii's or another crappy chain instead. Don't waste your time on the wings. A very not Merry Christmas at Anchor Bar indeed.... read more

Weck & Wings! Portion size of the Beef on Weck was on the small side, but the quality was incredible! Both the beef and wings were perfect, not fatty at all and melted in your mouth! Only critique is they need Labatt Blue on tap to be a real Buffalo bar. The Bloody Mary with the chicken wing garnish was also delicious! Three Buffalonians in our group of four, and everyone thought the food was great. Possibly still a bit understaffed, but they'll work that out soon I'm sure. read more

Anchor Bar Leesburg - Bloody Mary - Chicken Wings Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

The best wings in the area! We tried several flavors. Great place to watch the game, celebrate.. or just grab a great meal. Well done!

Have given this place a few tries but will not be back. The servers never bring appetizer plates with appetizers, even after being asked multiple times. The wings are so-so. Last straw was a few weeks ago when I ordered a buffalo fried chicken salad. The chicken was literally fried to the consistency of rocks. It was not edible. We never saw our server again after our food order was placed, so I couldn't give feedback. She only showed up again to give our bill. A manager asked about our experience once we were paid and ready to leave, but didn't offer any remedy. I wanted to love it and gave several chances. read more

The location was really just getting settled, but we sampled a lot of the flavors without disappointment. The quality of the chicken was above average and that complimented the unique flavors. The service was very pleasing, providing everything you need and not bugging with updates. Will be returning, great new establishment and glad so close to us. read more

My son and I recently made a trip to Buffalo to see the Bills-Dolphins game last Sunday, where the Bills 'crushed the fish'. along with trying to visit as many Wing and and Beef on Weck Bars that we could, We were able to only visit 10 places as it is hard in to visit and eat wings and a Beef on Weck in all these places. So we visited 10 of the 20 best places. One of our first stops was the Original Anchor Bar in Buffalo, as I wanted to see if they were still as good as they were a long time ago when I lived in Buffalo. Well, I was disappointed as the wings were chewy, and soggy, but the sauce was still the same. (Do you know hard it is to eat an order of wings and the sandwich in 10 places in 2.5 days. Our Anchor Bar right here in Leesburg would have won the competition if we had included them in our rating. I didn't need to travel to Buffalo for wings, They are right here in Leesburg. Rated #1 in my book. Way to Go Anchor Bar Leesburg. Good wings, great service, and a Bills gathering place!! read more

Absolute disaster for the Super Bowl. We ordered Uber Eats at 4:45 and it said an hour. At 6 the food wasn't ready yet. We called the restaurant and they said it would be ready in 15 minutes. At 6:30 it still wasn't ready. I called again and they said "We are making your wings now but the rest of the food hasn't been started yet and we don't know when it will be." Why would you start part of an order? By 7 I just cancelled the order. read more

I want to start off by saying that I do not write reviews on businesses but I made an account just to say that this is one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. My boyfriend and I recently came in because he wanted to order wings and watch basketball for March Madness. Our bartender, Gianna, was not only funny and kind but extremely attentive and knowledgeable to whatever we needed. Our food was DELICIOUS and I have already made plans to come back with my girlfriends this weekend. If I could give more than five stars I would. read more

Blonde bartender is the best ... f whatever the other reviews say ... this place hits the food solid hard but sometimes you wait as they have awesome business ... the whole 'I waited tables before' attitude sucks ... like, hey Debbie, you're an f'ing stay at home mom now going to brunch on Tuesday' holy Christ relax a bit read more

We have been so excited to try this place. Sadly, we spent most of our time here waiting for service. The wings were good, yes, but everything else was sub standard, especially for this area. The staff was borderline cordial, drinks came out late and were poured unevenly, and we felt generally ignored out on the patio. A lot of potential here, though this place needs to focus on customer care. And maybe consider a happy hour during the week like other similar wing places. $120 for wings and drinks that we had to flag people down for is not something I will do again anytime soon. read more

This is my second time ordering carry out, first time the cheese steak couldve ysed more meat less cheese but today is the super bowl so i expected a long wait, after my ubereats driver informed me they were busy I called to see how much longer it would be and was met with a very RUDE female host, i can deal with bad food but not bad service. read more

The food was great and fantastic wings! Service was good for a restaurant opening. I highly recommend this place. This my definitely my favorite new wing spot. read more

I lived in Buffalo for 5 years and I thought the quality here was awesome! Service was excellent. Very nostalgic. This place has Buffalo heart. read more

My husband and I had dinner here last week. It's a cool place to hang out, watch a game, have a beer and some wings. Would also be a good place to go with the kids. Food is what you'd expect from a sports bar read more

This establishment originated in Buffalo NY, home of the Buffalo Bills (as I'm sure most of you are well aware). The place is decorated with all kinds of Buffalo Bills memorabilia, nice looking place inside. In Western NY Labatt beer is a staple, stopped there today and they're out of both draft and bottles (it's on their beer menu). Tonight is a nationally televised game between the Bills and Giants, I'm sure a lot of Bills fans will be there and I'm sure many will be disappointed to know a Bills "bar" is out of the most popular beer Bills fans drink (Molson Canadian) is popular too, especially on game day. Asked for extra crispy wings, they came out rubbery (no exaggeration), asked if the pizza could be cooked well done and the middle was so soggy we had to eat it with a fork (again not exaggerating). I completely understand supply chain issues, missed orders, out of stocks.....etc. When in the mood for pizza and wings, we'll stick with ordering out from Badd pizza in Falls Church or McLean. The 2 bartenders were nice guys. read more

Their food gave me and my family severe food poisoning. We tried it for the first time yesterday and have been paying for it ever since. Never again. read more

Sadly another watered down franchise that has the Loudoun County curse of mediocre food and staff. My friend had been to the original Anchor Bar so we were excited to go on a Friday night for a Commanders game and sit on the patio. Our server was nice but he was way overwhelmed. We ordered margaritas, and a female bartender(?) brought them to our table. My friend politely said they forgot the salt on the rim she specifically told him THREE times. The girl made a face and goes "uh what are you serous you want me to take this back?" and continued to fight with my friend. After 20 or so minutes they finally took out food order. We saw at least 10 different food runners but hardly any servers which was very strange. She got wings and I got Mac and cheese, both were mediocre. Save yourself the trouble and just go to Wegmans the food is better and cheaper with no attitude. I run the local alumni club for my college football team we used to meet at Ten Spot but I won't be suggesting Anchor Bar. It's basically an over hyped BW3. read more

Amazing pizza and wings! Excellent service! Looking forward to football season watching games and enjoying great good and drinks!

First time at Anchor Bar. Nice waitress and the wings were good. Only negative I would give is don't serve stale tortilla chips. We ordered queso and chips and the chips were very stale. Queso was good but chips were clearly stale. Not what you want for first impressions. Hope they do better. Its nice to have a sports bar. read more

I really wanted to like this place but the wings were sub par. We had two orders of traditional chicken wings. The sauce on the wings was pretty good, however the wings were not crispy and had soggy skin making them hard to stomach. Clearly needed longer in the deep fryer. The wings came with celery and blue cheese. The celery seemed old and was also a ridiculously small portion for two orders of wings. It was half of one celery stick that was cut into 4 very skinny pieces. The blue cheese was not good, it was hard to tell if it was just a low end brand or if it had been sitting out for quite a while. To top it off, we each ordered a draft beer (different brands). Both of our beers tasted very stale - as if the keg was old or the lines had not been cleaned in a while. On a positive note the service was good, however they need to make adjustments on food quality and check their kegs and keg lines. read more

First off; You can NOT park anywhere close to the entrance to this place. The parking deck behind the restaurants building is a 200 yard walk and up to 3 levels of stairs. There is a elevator, but it was not working. Busy (non-Bills) NFL Sunday at 1:30PM. Seated quickly. Very loud atmosphere. Best TV views ever! [Me, Buffalo native] Traditional wings had the correct flavor, tender, just not crisp as they should be. Weck rolls were NOT. Wegmans is 100 yards away but the rolls here are soft hamburger rolls with salt and seeds. Beef was machine sliced with good flavor . Dip was flavorless no sodium brown water. Pizza; Sauce was too sweet and crust was dry, floury and had no chew. Pepperoni and cheese were up to a Buffalonians standards though. Beware; Every NFL jersey was on display by various patrons and we all go along and had an enjoyable one time experience. Sorry, we will not be back. Considering the price, we could fly to Buffalo for the best at Duffs. read more

Very much enjoyed the experience, service, and food. The wings are tasty and meaty, probably the most meaty in NOVA and I have been to A LOT of places with wings in the area. The beef on weck was very good as well, would say the only thing they need to work on with this is the amount of salt on the bun. Onion rings were not greasy and had very good flavor. Shelby gave exceptional service, never wanted for a thing and she even offered refills to go. Very happy we tried Anchor and will be back. read more
