Change of Pace

I hadn’t been here in almost 20 years but remembered it as a place for great wings. I was in the neighborhood and figured it was worth a shot. It was like time had stood still there. Nothing looked any different which felt reassuring. We ordered wings and just like before, they were perfect. Perfect crispiness, lots of flavor and the perfect amount of sauce. Other places could learn a lesson or two here. Good to know there are restaurants smart enough not to change a good thing just to make a quick buck.

The place is a real deal nothing fancy just a good neighborhood bar, friendly service, God beers selection and great authentic Buffalo Wings.

We were on our way home from salmon fishing in Pulaski and were longing for some yummi wings and we found the perfect wings here at ‘change of pace’. Very good wings and excellent fries!

I go here a lot and I love their pizza and wings they’re amazing. All their food is good on the menu. This is a good bar to go to because they don’t have any trouble they don’t accept that it’s a nice atmosphere people are nice.

Very good wings and awesome white pizza. We got an order of garlic Parmesan and an order of hot, both extra crispy. While the hot could’ve been a little crispier both sauces were delicious and exactly what I would expect from a hot and garlic parm sauce. The white pizza was incredible. Greasy, thin crust, lots of garlic. Just how I like my white pizza. Also, the bartender, a middle aged gentleman whose name I can’t recall, was easily the best bartender I’ve had wait on me since moving to Syracuse. He’s friendly and funny without being overbearing. We will be back for the food and the service!!!

Stopped by last night with a group of friends for late night food and drinks after Taste of Syracuse (first time here).
Had some great drinks and ordered the wings and pizza special. Cant say enough about how great the pizza and wings were. Perfect «drunk food» too! Super friendly staff — we had a great time! (Also the steak and cheese the guy next to me was eating looked bangin!)
Will be back for sure when we come back up to Cuse next month!

The best wings in Syracuse. The only downfall is the location and the element. Not a great place to watch a game. All the TVs are out of date and on different feeds.

Hands down the best wings in Syracuse!!! Try the garlic Parmesan ones. They don’t disappoint!

This place has the best chicken wings that I’ve ever eaten. They are large, perfectly cooked (extra crispy), and creatively sauced.
The price has gone up at least twice in the past year, so that’s definitely not a great thing.

Get the wings. They actually are really good.
It’s a neighborhood bar. You park on the street.
Don’t be expecting TV’s «Cheers», just enjoy.

Best wings in Syracuse, and not very pricey. 2 beers and a dozen wings for 12 bucks. The ESPN announcer crowd has come here when they’re in town to call a ‘Cuse game — Tirico, McDonough, and the other SU Alums.
Owned by Steve Grilli — former MLB Blue Jays & Tigers pitcher.

I had heard good things about the garlic wings, and since it’s a 2 minute drive from my house, I thought I’d give it a shot.
It’s very unassuming from the outside. In fact, I lived in the neighborhood a while before I even noticed this place. Probably still would not have if it wasn’t for driving past on a Sunday and seeing a bunch of people in Bills’ jerseys outside. I actually never went in the place. I ordered the wings over the phone and the girlfriend picked them up. From what she told me, it’s a decent enough place on the inside.
I was surprised how long it took to make up 2 dozen wings. I was expecting 10, maybe 15 minutes. It took almost a half hour, which isn’t completely unreasonable, but much longer than I expected.
The wings themselves are pretty good. We got them extra crispy, which seems to be the most popular way to get them. While I was expecting more of a garlic flavor, they were really addicting. The crunch on them was really nice. I ate a significant amount of the 2 dozen.
I wouldn’t hesitate to get another dozen at some point. Maybe next time I’ll even go in.

Again home visiting family one day I was visiting my cousin and really wanted some chicken wings. I didn’t know much about this part of the city so she told me to try Change of Pace. I did and was very happy with the results the wings were hot and fresh when I received them. I ordered them over the phone and they were done in 15 minutes. I was kind of leery when I looked at the outside of the building, but once I got inside it was a normal looking bar. The staff was friendly and very helpful.
I am happy I came here for wings there were delicious.

Sign on the door says «sports bar» but the small TVs in the room with the bar say otherwise. Wings are good, although it seems like they can only fry up a dozen at a time, because they take forever to arrive. Beers are 3 – 4 bucks, shots all seemed to be around 4. People were fucking shitfaced in there at like 7:30 PM on a Monday.
It’s alright but unless you live within walking distance, go to Shifty’s.

Was named Schnitzel bank’s, but has been Change of Pace for 23 years. It’s a nice, friendly atmosphere with knotty pine walls and a back room with tables, chairs and a pool table. The bar has about a dozen of the usual drafts including Blue Moon and Yuengling. M-​F they offer a really nice lunch menu; some items change daily such as homemade soups. The Monday that we came here, the daily menu sheet had Stuffed Shells with Garlic Bread $ 5.95, Chili topped with cheddar in a bread bowl, etc. The reg. menu has Apps., Wraps, Pizza, Wings («voted best»), Burgers and Hot & Cold Sandwiches.
We tried the Philly Wrap with FF $ 5.95. Comes with a small cup of good marinara sauce and a mound of nice fries. It was great. A cup of Chili w/​o crackers was tomatoey (a new word?) with lots of so-​so ground beef, little onion and green pepper. But it had enough good, spicy kick.
Also, tried 4 nice stuffed shells in plenty of good homemade sauce, which came with 2 halves of a good 10″ sub roll as garlic bread — done right.
