THE HUNTRESS whiskey n' wings
7.9
A whiskey-and-wings bar that leans into flavor options and late-afternoon drinking energy, making it a strong pregame stop when you want more than standard buffalo. Treat it as a happy-hour hang: split wings, keep the order focused, and let the bar program do the rest.
Must-Try Dishes:
Smoked wings, Jalapeño crema wings, Poutine-style fries
Scores:
Value: 7.1
Service: 7.6
Consistency: 7.7
Food Quality: 8.3
Atmosphere: 8.1
Cultural Relevance: 7.2
What makes it special: Wing flavors plus a whiskey-forward bar in a moody room.
Who should go: Friends who want wings and drinks
When to visit: Weekdays before dinner rush
What to order: Smoked wings, one specialty wing flavor, fries/poutine
Insider tip: Ask what’s actually on happy hour—details can be unclear.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Limited street parking in Court Square; metered spots nearby but fill up after 5pm. Garages within a few blocks are the safest bet.
Dress code: Smart casual leaning trendy—jeans and sneakers are fine, but many guests dress it up slightly for drinks.
Noise level: Moderate to lively during happy hour—conversation is easy early, louder once the bar fills.
Weekend wait: 30–45 minutes without a reservation, especially after 7pm
Weekday lunch: No lunch service; weekday happy hour typically no wait before 6pm
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited—fries, poutine-style sides, and a few bar snacks, but wings dominate the menu.
Vegan options: Very limited—mostly fries or basic sides; not a strong choice for vegan diners.
Gluten-free options: Some options possible (plain wings, certain sides), but cross-contamination is likely—ask the staff.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes, if you want casual chemistry over wings and drinks—less ideal if you’re looking for quiet or polished dining.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Usually yes during weekday happy hour; later evenings and weekends are easier if you’re flexible or willing to sit at the bar.
Is it kid-friendly? Not really—this is a bar-first spot with a drinking-focused crowd, best suited for adults.
Best For
Better for: More interesting wing flavors and a stronger whiskey program than standard sports bars nearby.
Skip if: You want a full dinner menu, vegetarian-friendly options, or a quiet place to linger.
