This was a laid-back, divey type of bar that supported the Packers as there was memorabilia throughout the inside. There were a few tables with mostly high tops surrounding the bar as well as outdoor seating with televisions. The menu had a few unique bar features along with over 140 wing flavors. Two types of wings and the special empanadas were ordered. The wings came eight to an order and seemed to be of good quality. They were meaty and large too. The sauces that were picked were awesome sauce ($14) and the Pickle Me Elmo Pickle Dressing ($15). The awesome sauce seemed to be a yum yum sauce but could not be exactly sure as the menu did not provide a description and just stated 'don't' ask - It's awesome." Regardless, it was very tasty. It was not spicy at all if unfamiliar with yum yum sauce. The pickle sauce was decent. I would have preferred more of the sauce present, but it was okay at best. The special empanada consisted of hot sausage and mozzarella. There were two to an order and they were big. The overall empanada was extremely crispy. There was plenty of filing and it seemed to be more of a chorizo texture than sausage, but it was still great. Will I go back? Definitely.

Chicken wings tasted like vomit

I went to Blue 42 on a Tuesday night for karaoke. I had such a great time. Everyone was so sweet from the waiters, security, bartenders, owner, the KJ (karaoke DJ) and the people there. I hope I get to go back soon. I had a Beyond Burger and Sweet Potato Fries and they were great!Vegetarian options: I had a Boeyond Burger and it was great.Dietary restrictions: They helped me with making sure I didn't have gluten. My sweet potato fries didn't have gluten. I wouldn't recommend it for someone with celiac. I have a strong sensitivity and did fine.

i want to give highest praises to Denise and her Team- a younger guy and girl who attended my husband and me. We were seated in the bubble out back with the high-top. The crew was welcoming, pleasant, efficient, informative and tidy. WE WILL BE BACK. The food was good, and the service was GREAT. Prices were reasonable. what more can you ask for???

My friends and I went here a couple of weeks ago for someone's birthday and had a terrific experience! Wings are out of this world! Could be the best I have ever had. Several dozen wing sauce flavors to choose from. Draft beer selection was good as well. I can't wait to come back again to try more wings. So good! And the service was fantastic. Our server was attentive, kind, and on top of everything.Vegetarian options: Limited vegetarian options. Known for their wings.Dietary restrictions: Limited dietary options.Parking: Only a few spots in front of the restaurant. Old bank parking lot nearby was where we parked.Kid-friendliness: More of an adult, bar, and drinking vibe.Wheelchair accessibility: Not very accessible.

I randomly came across Blue 42 one day when I saw they had wings and at least 100 different sauces. I noticed they also have happy hour food specials so my husband and I came in on a Friday at around 5:30. It was already packed at that time and they said it would be a half an hour wait for a table. Luckily, two seats shortly freed up at the bar, so we decided to just sit there. We ordered honey chipotle wings ($10) and the classic burger ($12). The wing sauce was good but some of the wings were a little over-fried. I honestly wasn't expecting much from the burger but it was actually really good. It was cooked to the medium rare we requested, and it came with battered fries (my fave). I wouldn't really say these are "happy hour" prices though. Even so, I'd still come back and try some other wing sauces. It'll just be tough to narrow it down to which one.Tip - street parking only

The bomb wings...144 flavors and only $14 for 8 wingettes. Dry rubs are my favorite!

This place was surprisingly small but very very cozy. The atmosphere was great and the staff was very friendly.I can't comment on the food since I didn't order any. But from what I saw, the food looked really tasty. If pick up orders were anything to go on, then people must have really enjoyed the food. It was non stop food pick up after pick up.All in all, a great bar if you're looking for a sports bar with game after game on TV. If you're a Packers fan, then you will love this Packers themed bar.

Fun little hole in the wall, nice for watching a game eating some wings and downing some drinks. Feels a bit local heavy but it's always a good vibe. Have a beer, eat some grub and catch a game.

These wings are to die for! Blue doriti inspired wings are my favorite!
