McTighe’s Award Winning Wings
When you need to kick back and relax, treat yourself to an icy cold brew and a huge plate of McTighe’s Award Winning Wings. Their wings are made either fried up crispy or grilled and baked just right. They come in servings of 10, 20, and 50 and covered in your sauce of choice. You can select between tiger, garlic teriyaki, mild, medium, and hot sauce or mix it up with several selections.
Philly Cheese Steak
When nothing but steak and cheese will do, you absolutely need to try their Philly Cheese Steak. They build this classic sandwich on an Amoroso Roll, adding shredded steak and white American cheese by the boatload. Although it’s an extra charge for each one, you’ll definitely want to add the sauteed peppers, onions, mushrooms, and hot peppers.
Authentic Irish Calzone
If everyone wants a different kind of pizza, get a few Authentic Irish Calzones instead. They are made using hand-tossed pizza dough that’s filled with mozzarella, parmesan cheese, and ricotta. You can then customize them with your favorite pizza toppings for an extra fee.
Don’t worry about getting good and full-on all their savory creations because they don’t have dessert. That’s right, not a sweet treat in sight. But you won’t likely care since there are so many delicious things ready to order on the menu. If you stick around for a while after your meal and find your hunger growing, just go for another round of wings or other starters to satisfy your cravings.
