BuffaLouie’s created a niche in the Bloomington restaurant market when we opened our doors in 1987, bringing our family recipes and personal hands-on management to the forefront. Back then, buffalo-style chicken wings were considered an appetizer.

BuffaLouie’s fast became very popular among the athletic programs at Indiana University. Patrons include Basketball Coach, Mike Davis; Director of Basketball Operations & Trainer, Tim Garl; Football Coach, Gerry di Nardo and Assistant Football Coach, Anthony Thompson. As the restaurant industry evolved over the past 17 years, BuffaLouie’s has become well known to the students of I.U., along with the local residents of Bloomington.

We also had the pleasure to serve former coach Bob Knight and his coaching staff, as well as the basketball camps he ran each summer. Some speculate that former head coach Bill Mallory has returned to the IU football staff just so he can get his “Buffas” fix again. In the past, he and the staff would enjoy our wings every Sunday as they watched the previous day’s game in the coach’s film room.

It’s not surprising to see the IU basketball and football players in the restaurant each week to get their fix of “Buffas.” The walls are covered with an abundance of IU memorabilia. It has truly become an IU institution.

As we continue to expand throughout the state of Indiana, it’s gratifying to see how excited previous students are that BuffaLouie’s is opening a restaurant in their area. Our philosophy remains to continue serving the freshest, quality ingredients in the area. We take great pride in putting our name on our famous trademarked products. From our famous wings with 14 different sauces, to our chicken tenders, garden-fresh salads, and specialty sandwiches, we’ve become a multi-generational favorite.
