WOW Cafe

The wife and I stopped in for dinner after an all day athletic recruiting visit to Adrian College with our son. We weren’t expecting the food to be very good but wanted to check out the skybox view at the end of our day. They were just getting ready for a beer league hockey game when we sat down so it was really cool to see the glass sliding doors raised from one end of the ice to the other. The view of the rink is perfect from this perch. Surprisingly the food here was very good. I was an old fan of Buffalo Wild Wings from my college days but have noticed their food quality deteriorate to inedible status over the years. My burger and fries were excellent. Good service too. My wife also said her chicken wrap was very good. Our son inhaled his burger. How cool is it to have a fully functioning sports bar & grille in a luxury box area of your hockey rink on campus? I went to Michigan State and we didn’t even have something like this. Next time we eat here while visiting from California we were make it during one of the men’s NCAA hockey games. Normally I would give this 4 stars but given how crappy the food is at most sports bar places like this I think it deserves 5. Especially once the skybox hockey experience is factored in.

If greasy bar food is your thing. Ok. Been there three times. Three times and out. Very loud during a hockey game. If you are there to watch a game that would be part of it. Know what it is about. A college hangout.

Location is everything! Cannot duplicate eating on the ice! We had tenders, wings and a salad. Wings were very good. I would say as good as frickers. Salad and tenders were solid. Appetizer was potato skins which were a big hit. We will be back.

Great wings & burgers & homemade chips, all while watching hockey from the «Skybox» setting.
