I am not going to sugarcoat it — this place is a dive bar/restaurant. That being said, it is one of the best in Buffalo & almost everyone in Buffalo knows about how good it is. If you’re recently relocated/around the area on a trip to Buffalo — ya gotta go. It’s like a rite of passage.
My family has brought me here since I was a kid…have always gone on Fridays and gotten the soup and fish fry. Never disappoints. That being said — I have been in Iowa away for work a bit and finally got the chance to stop by again today (Monday, 12/9/24). While the fish fry is Fridays only, they always have 4 soups on. Their chicken noodle soup is absolutely to die for & in my opinion the best in Buffalo by far. Always loaded up, filling to the point that 2 bowls could be your meal, and a great deal at $5.
Also wanted to say that the service here is always great. Ate my soup at the bar — bartender tonight who was a younger male (didn’t catch his name unfortunately) was A+. Better than any bartender you’ll find downtown, at chain restaurants, or pretty much any other local haunt in Buffalo.
Overall — this place is amazing. Having travelled all over the US with sports teams, it is one of those places you try to find that’s a local legend in whatever city you’re in. Try it out — you won’t be disappointed.
Parking: Park at the school across the street as long as it is after school hours. Nobody minds and you’re all good there. Other than that — very narrow parking lot to left side of restaurant and street parking. Would 100% recommend just parking at the school for convenience — you won’t be towed — nobody cares.
Kid-friendliness: Bar in the front and a restaurant with booths/tables in the back that are separated & have ample space between them. Not a rowdy crowd; mostly older people at the bar. Definitely kid friendly.

I don't know if it's because I was the last person to order or whatever but my fish was greasy as hell and the sides were bland. Wiechec's is definitely not worth the hype.

Great food had the roast beef with wings. The wings are huge and cooked perfectly. The roast beef was amazing and the bun the roast beef is on is amazing. The rye seeds with salt on bum was honestly the perfect touch. If your going to Buffalo definitely recommend

Always have to make a trip to Wiechec's when we go to visit Buffalo. Last time, made a trip to Niagara Falls with my sister and nieces and had to take them all to Wiechec's. They loved it. Food was delicious, service was great and the atmosphere, while not posh, is certainly interesting. Besides the usual fish fry, I recommend the seafood gumbo and the pierogi.
