BESTWINGSPERIOD. INTHEENTIREBUFFALOAREA. Sparky has a great place here, and I mean it when I say him and Deb can really cook up some great food! I don’t live in the area anymore, but this is one of the first places we stop to grab some wings. They just know how to cook them right! Everything else on the menu is delicious too, and the customer service is great! Smiling faces everywhere! If you are driving through the area make sure you stop by third base!

Great food and great prices. Friendly people, great service, and great bar food. The staff always make you feel welcome and you don’t have to be a regular to go here. You can eat in at the bar or tables/booths. You can order ahead and pick it up. The wings are the best and biggest in the area! There are many sauces to choose from. The sandwiches, burgers, and subs are delicious. The portions are plentiful! My favorite finger food is the breaded cauliflower with ranch! I love the chicken fingers and fish and chips. My hubby loves the Nasty Nate and the burgers. Drink prices are cheap. You must try 3rd Base!

Typical dive of Olean. Food is greasy, music played is way to loud for such a small place and not enough seating. The back door is open so while you’re there you get all the 2nd hand smoke one could ask for. Same thing when you walk in the front, a bunch of smokers blowing junk in your face. It’s a dump.

The best wings and vest slogan(stop here before going home) in town. Large variety of beer too.

Many sports bars are hit or miss as I have experienced on my plethora of travels. 3rd Base Bar & Grill is an exception. The burgers are great. The atmosphere is easy going. Glad That my friend Mike made the recommendation. Definitely worth a stop if you are in Olean.

There are lots of choices for burgers and bear around Olean. 3rd Base definitely wins the competition among Sports Bars. Look for me nursing a few beers during the Bills games at the end of the bar. The staff are friendly and helpful and the company’s pretty good too. More than your average dive bar, 3rd base is definitely my choice for sports bars in Olean, NY when I’m there.

Solid burgers and fries & plenty of TVs. I always enjoy coming here to watch the Sabres and Bills games — this place is definitely one of the best sports bars in Olean!

While in the area I stopped at 3rd Base Bar & Grill. It comes as described, a classic comfortable local Olean dive bar and on top of that it has to be one of the premier Olean NY sports bars. Really excellent wings, nice selection of beers, enough TV’s to easily watch games, and to top it off an opportunity to shoot pool. Put this dive bar/sports bar in my neighborhood and I’d be a regular. It would compete for best wings in the area!!!

I’m a big fan of their wings. Definitely get their wings of you decide to stop in. As far as dive bars go this one is top notch! I gave it 5 stars because it’s exactly what I look for in a place like this(not to be confused with fine dining, but exactly what it’s supposed to be). The service is great, it’s a chill environment,… What’s not to love?

A friend took me here while I was visiting. I’m not usually a fan of dive bars, not even in my own town, but was pleasantly surprised by the friendly staff and the overall vibe of 3rd Base Bar. Everyone says the wings are great. As an herbivore, I can’t vouch for that, but there were certainly a lot of people gobbling them up. Who knows, the good time I had may have had something to do with my friend being a regular, but if you’re ever in this neck of the woods, give it a whirl.

I have been traveling around New York looking for dive bars and fell in love with 3rd Base as soon as I saw it. Wings, pool, darts and beer. What more could you want?

Stopped here for a drink, kinda looked like a local dive from the outside, so I kinda knew I’d be @ home. For a wed it was busy! They had a 55 cent wing specials going on. It was a cool mix of old and young ppl. The bartenders were all friendly, fast & Hot. Ordered 12 wings and tried there base special sauce & honey bourbon. Both were good, and the wings were nice and crispy. A older guy I was sitting next to was a regular and said they were best wings in Olean, never trying anywhere else in town, I’d have to agree :)

A great place to eat, watch a game and listen to tunes. A good mixture of young and old, male and female. Dart boards and pool tables available. What this place is known for is the wings– may be the best in the area! Also popular is the prime rib steak sandwich– you gotta try it! The girls doing the cooking and bartending are HOT and take care of their customers with a heavy dose of skill and professionalism. I love going there and will certainly go back on a regular basis!

This place is bigger than it looks and the staff bust their butts to make sure you’re happy. We got there just before pool league began and watched it fill up fast. The wings looked so good– will definitely try them when we go back. One of few bars open in Olean and def. worth checking out. Two pool tables and a few craft beers from Ellicottville Brewing Company– I like it!
