I got the steak and pepper and cheese fries. It was right off the grill so it was nice and hot. Service was quick so I didn't have to wait long.

Solid place to eat, chat with friends, and get some delicious wings! Highly recommend the barbecue wings here! Great value

The wings were the best part and very good. I liked the sauce, I wish they had more options, but their only one was good. The blue cheese dip was excellent, and they used nice and crunchy celery. The hot dog was way too much bun for the dog. Its like a hoagie roll with a foot long hot dog lazily thrown in there. Maybe if I went chilli and they filled the entire thing it would make sense, but as a plain dog for a kid, no good. Jalapeno poppers were cream cheese, which I love. Curly fries were good. Onion rings... a few were over done but overall not bad. Chicken tenders were like tyson's out of a frozen bag- didn't care for those at all. Caesar salad came with the dressing poured over the top, which was a bummer, but since it wasn't mixed in the salad didn't get too wilted. The flavor was actually really good. The ribs were the worst part of this meal. Small, chewy, fatty, awful sauce, skip those at all costs.

2 words - buffalo wings. That's really their specialty here and they do it really well. They are the talk of the town for them so go give them a try! They come with ranch and celery, what more can you ask for?

This is local standard for Buffalo Chicken Wings PERIOD! I moved out of the area YEARS ago and always stop back when I'm in the area. They ARE as good as the Anchor Bar and Duffs (my favorite) in Buffalo, NY. I've tried the other two 'Chucks' locations in Ewing (serves the SMALLEST wings I have ever seen!!!) and in Hamilton but Princeton is the "O.G.". On top of EXCELLENT wings, they serve FRESH French Fries! Yes, if you follow my reviews and I say that the place is t-shirt buying worthy, then it is a mic drop joint! Go to Chucks in Princeton on Spring St. the next time you're jonesing for EXCELLENT wings!!
