Chicken Finger Sub

This page covers where to eat a chicken finger sub in Buffalo: breaded chicken tenders on a sub roll, plain or tossed in hot sauce, often with blue cheese, lettuce and melted sub cheese. Local food writers trace it to John's Pizza & Subs in the Town of Tonawanda, though Jim's Steakout has its own claim. Three places for one: John's on Niagara Falls Boulevard, Jim's Steakout's original Elmwood store and Cafe 59 on Allen Street.
