Went here for Thursday Burger special. Got the popper burger which was a deconstructed jalepeno popper. It was one of the best burgers I had anywhere in a long time. The combo of the cream cheese, bacon, juicy burger and heat from the jalepeno really came together. Fries are like the battered style. Not my go to fry but you get a good amount and they were tasty. Got the brussel sprouts special which was put together like a Caesar salad. It was huge! And the sprouts were awesome. Atmosphere is always good here and service was excellent as usual. One of my favorite spots! read more

This review is for their special events. The team was great to work with, everyone was so helpful and hard working. I would recommend going in person for any important questions or talk anything through because they did not respond to emails very well. We rented out the mezzanine for our wedding rehearsal dinner and decided to go with the build your own package. Fry flight 10/10 Loved the different flavors or fries and the dips to go with each one. Pretzel bites 8/10 Definitely not as good as their usually pretzel sticks but it's ok. Shrimp cocktail 10/10 Fresh, good. House salad 10/10 Fresh. They gave us both ranch and Italian dressings. Mac & cheese 7/10 Not my favorite. I don't typically like Mac and cheese made in restaurants anyways though. Pulled pork sandwich 9/10 Good. Wasn't as much of a hit as I thought it would be. They do give you a ton of pork. Taco & Nacho bar - chicken 10/10 Chicken was amazing. And all the toppings were perfect to build exactly what you wanted. Some of the best tacos ever. Pepperoni pizza 10/10 Really good pizza. Margherita pizza 10/10 Again, really good. Everyone just raved about the food. Even some of the most picky people in my family loved it. Everything turned out so delicious. We would definitely recommend Brazen for any special events. read more

Pizza was not bad and I enjoyed the crust. The appetizer was fire and my favorite was the pretzel bites and fries. The website advertised the food making it look very good but it didn't match the photos. Despite that, since I came got a company dinner, this was pretty good. The service was excellent and attentive. Overall, a pretty good spot with lots of parking. read more

Went to dinner for my friend's 40th birthday and I will be back for sure. Wow the pizzas were mouth watering delicious. The southwest chicken salad is amazing. Next time I must try the fish tacos or a burger. The service was great and we were very happy. I love the pretty lights hanging from the ceiling and the big openness of the restaurant. read more

Signed up for a drink mix class and one of the owners ran the class, Ashley. She was super nice and we made 3 different cocktails. We also were able to order food for the event and I ordered a Detroit style deep dish pizza, it was delicious! We had a lot of fun at the class and look forward to the next one! read more

I've heard great things about Brazen so I was excited to try them out. The restaurant is pretty large with indoor seating as well as a nice patio with a fire. There were a lot of different beers, sours, IPAs on tap. I wish they had more cider options. I ordered the Goat'chella pizza which had goat cheese, candied pecans, caramelized onion jam, and topped with honey cinnamon arugula and it really hit the spot! The service was spectacular. Our waitress came around pretty frequent and made sure we were doing ok. read more

Good beer, great food, excellent service, and loved the atmosphere. I was deciding between two of the beers that I hadn't tried before and was able to get a little sample of both to make my choice easier! Love this! Flights are also available if there are more than two you want to try. The menu includes some go-to standbys and some creative options that appeal to my foodie side. I got one of the current specials - a grilled cheese sandwich with brie, apricot jam, pumpkin spiced bacon, and arugula. It was sweet and gooey and tasty. Fries were a bit overly salted to me and had a weird flavor that I couldn't place. My beer choice was the Señor Hefe (a Hefeweizen, probably easy to guess), nice and light for the summer. The parking lot is not large so if you're going on a busy night, go early. Indoor seating is at comfortable spacious tables or at the bar - sit at the bar if you're here to watch a game, as the tvs can be a bit hard to see from further back. One of the tvs had closed captions on (hooray!). There is plenty of outdoor seating available too, to take advantage of the times we have perfect weather. This is a family friendly place too, I saw a lot of families come in with young kids. Noise level felt like... medium-high. Loud-ish but still very comfortable to hang out and read a book while enjoying my beer and food. The large list of beers on tap is up on the wall and easy to read even from across the room - thank you for this! Pricing is on par with similar breweries. Overall I had a great afternoon here and would happily recommend this place. read more

Queso tastes like it's from the jar, but the beer and service are great. Definitely worth a try!!

This is a tricky one to rate. Atmosphere: 10/10. I love it here it's modern and clean and spacious both inside and outside. Just a great place to relax. Food is average brewery food, which I guess is to be expected. Nothing that stood out. But the cocktails, beer, and cider were all very good. This is both a great family outing and date night spot. The bar is huge and the outdoor patio with fireplaces is very nice. Will definitely be back, just don't expect a top level menu. Servers and staff were also great. Just a really enjoyable place to be. read more

We really enjoy coming here. From a nice break of cooking midweek to a relaxing Sunday brunch, we really feel comfortable here and especially like sitting on the covered patio that has heat bars for when it's chilly out. The lot can be packed, but they have a lot of seating options, so most times we haven't waited long for a seat, if at all. We love their variety of beers available and their wait staff is super friendly. Matt has been our server many times and is just wonderful! Their food is delicious and we usually walk away with leftovers for lunch the next day. The grounds are large and include outdoor game areas and plenty of places to let the kids roam while waiting for your meal. Overall, just a great place! read more

If you have gluten issues, please be extremely careful eating here. While this brewery offers gluten-free beverages, their food handling and staff knowledge regarding allergens are dangerously inconsistent. I specifically asked the bartender if the pork tacos were served on corn tortillas, and after pausing to think, he confirmed they were. Unfortunately, after taking a few bites, I realized I had actually been served flour tortillas. When I flagged down a different server, she informed me that those specific tacos "never" come on corn, revealing a serious lack of communication and training among the staff. The consequences of this mistake were significant. I suffered a severe reaction that resulted in two days of missed work. While the server provided extra chips so I could eat the taco fillings as nachos, the meal was still kept on our bill, and only the extra chips were complimentary. Most disappointing, however, has been the management's lack of accountability. I emailed them a week ago to share my experience and suggest better allergy training to prevent this from happening to someone else, but I have received no response. Because of the unreliable information and the total silence from management regarding a health incident, I cannot recommend this establishment to anyone with food sensitivities. read more

We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and were impressed with the size and structure of the building, with its high ceiling, wood beams, and small white lights. We went to the bar to check out the many offerings and were happy to see that beer, cider, and seltzers were available. We ordered a Tailgate Water Lager, which had a nutty flavor, and an Apricot Kumquat Cider. We sat down, and while we looked over the menu, our server, Robert, stopped by to answer our questions. We decided to order the Margherita pizza with a gluten free crust, and an order of cajun fries. The pizza was fair, and the fries were good, albeit salty. We loved the venue, and the outdoor patio seating, with heaters and fans. Dogs are welcome on the patio, which is awesome. read more

We enjoy coming to Brazen and have been many times but I'm a little concerned because the service has been off a bit lately. We had a few errors in our orders, like one beer in the flight being wrong, and minor things like that. The food is good but could use a few tweaks to take it the next level. The chomp wrap is ground beef in a tortilla. It needs some salsa and maybe some sour cream or something else to give it a step up. I often get a burger here but the burgers are overcooked by design and they don't offer options for how you would like it. I understand a few people like them well done but burger lovers certainly don't. The restaurant itself is spacious with a huge bar area and covered, heated outside seating. read more

We have been to Brazen on numerous occasions. The food I ordered was inedible this time and I had to send it back. The chicken fingers were very dry and hard and the fries were cold! I was shocked because we had never had a bad experience here. It was very busy. The service was good-our server put in another order for me. It was noisy. They will not do separate checks, which I find odd. My food arrived when everyone else was finished eating. I hope this is a one time bad experience. read more

I went to enjoy a nice outdoor experience and checked out this brewery and really enjoyed my burger and my brew. For my meal, I had the Brazen burger, which was delicious and was essentially the cheeseburger on the menu but with caramelized onions and house sauce added. Came with fries, of course, and those were yummy as well. I was going to get one of the cocktails, but since this was a brewery, I opted for a brew instead. I got the Super Basic Peach, which had the taste of those peach ring candies in a sour ale beer form. I got some to-go because this will likely be my summer drink this year, lol. Overall, it's a really nice space with a beautiful outdoor area as well. looking forward to my next visit out there, rain or shine. read more

We had guests in from out of town & decided to have lunch & brews at Brazen. We got there when they were just opening their doors & were surprised to see how many others were there at that time. To me, it was a good sign. We started with drinks. Two Charlatan IPA's (do good!), a Midnight Society Stout, and an NA beer, not sure what it was called. We all enjoyed the beers. Our entrees included burgers, shrimp, and stuffed banana pepper mac & cheese (mine). The mac & cheese was creamy with the perfect kick from the pepper. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their meals. All of our beers and food were good, but the thing that was the topping on the cake was the service. Our server was knowledgeable about the beers, gave great suggestions on the food, and was super friendly. He was always there when we needed without being pushy. I wish I could remember his name! Check this place out. 2024-32 read more

The craft beer was good. The fish tacos were a notch above fish sticks. They give you a lot of chips which were bland and a teeny tiny container of salsa on the side. When I asked for more salsa the waitress said I would be charged for the extra salsa. $1.50 for another teeny tiny container. She said it was homemade and that's why it was so pricey. Come on Moe's salsa is homemade and you can help yourself to endless amounts. I won't be going back. My husband's chicken sandwich was just okay and his fries were delivered cold. They did replace them though. It is quite noisy on the main floor. We were upstairs which was less noisy. read more

Had a reservation this weekend. No parking. Asked host if I could park on the side lot. She said it's for employee's only. She was extremely rude and talked down to us. Treated me like a low grade idiot. Have been here about 15 times since opening. Will never go there again. Terrible miserable employee. Should be a prison. read more

This place is going down hill. Slow service. They don't honor the food specials that they advertise. Overpriced. Overall disappointed

*This review does not include bar service / alcohol* After driving by a few times and seeing this place packed, I thought I'd give it a try. It was not very busy the night we went. And it was nice out so we ate outside. Our experience wasn't worthwhile, unfortunately. We ordered food pretty quickly. And our beverages came out immediately. And then we sat 35 minutes without being checked on at all. Finally, our waitress came over and offered refills and apologized for our wait. It took 55 minutes total to get our order (I got fish tacos, which is served with tortilla chips and he got chicken tenders and fries). It was really a long wait and we weren't informed why. My friends food was average fried food. I wasn't impressed with the fish tacos. And the toppings were overwhelming versus complimentary. The "salsa" that came with the tortilla chips just seemed like a scoop out of a can of crushed tomatoes. There were no coasters so the condensation on our beverages created puddles of water on the table which dripped down to my leg and I had to watch where I put my forearms. I think it's a nice place to have some drinks outside ... there's cornhole and a giant connect 4 and plenty of heat for if it gets chilly. People also brought their dogs. The menu was nice but the food just didn't deliver and no one wants to wait almost an hour for food. Maybe it was an "off" night as most people seem to have nice experiences here but we drove out of our way to try this place and it unfortunately missed the mark for us. read more

My husband and I went for a dinner date yesterday for Valentines Day. The food we chose was amazing. We started with Mexican street corn nachos and we added pork. My husband got a flight of beers to try and I got a hard cider. I ordered the valentines special which was one small plate, a main course and a dessert. My small plate was heirloom carrots with feta and they were so good. For my main course I chose the 8oz steak which came with potatoes and Brussel sprouts with bacon. The steak was cooked so well I could cut it with a butter knife. For dessert I got the Marscapone strawberry torte my husband and I split and it was just enough. My husband had the angry burger with french fries. He also ordered tomato bisque. I did try it and wow it's was awesome! Our server was awesome and super knowledgeable. read more

Went to Brazen for the first time but it WON'T be the last! Honestly I was skeptical because of other reviews and when we first arrived it was a bit hectic as an event was going on, parking was a challenge but I'm glad we stayed. Yes it is loud, it's a bar and like all the other breweries we've been in the ceilings are high and acoustics aren't great. But they have a wonderful outdoor area that I can't wait to enjoy! Our server Brittany was hands down the best. She was attentive, fun, helpful, and overall her service was stellar. When we go back I will ask for her. We ordered the chip and dip trio as a starter, good guacamole, yummy queso, but the salsa-must of been homemade soo good. Chips were homemade not store bought, bonus. A party of 4 shared 2 pizzas and it was just enough. We had the classic Margarita and Buffalo Chicken, what a pleasant surprise that was -WOW. Highly recommend trying it. I don't drink beer but my husband and the other guy with us do, he said the stout (dark beer) was outstanding (he's a Guinness guy so must be good for him to say that!) The prices were reasonable, the staff were friendly, the place was clean, and the food was great. A+ read more

Went to Brazen last night for dinner. I got the spicy cheese curds, only one of them was spicy which was disappointing, but the flavor was great and the dipping sauces were awesome. I just don't think I got the ghost pepper habanero curds. The Dad Bod IpA was great, so was the Undershaker IPA I forgot to take a picture of. I had their wings which were nice and crispy and the Brazen Gold sauce was excellent. My fiance got the mac and cheese which she loves! The service was awesome despite it being busy. Their patio is one of the best in WNY and the overall building is awesome! I go to a lot of breweries and Brazen is a great one. read more

Learned about this place from a friend and I will definitely pay it forward by sharing with as many people as I can because the place is really cool. With all of their own beers on tap there is so much to choose from and being the beer geek that I am I wanted to try as many as I could so I went with a flight. I tried 2 IPA's and 2 stouts and all of them were really good. My one critique on the flight is that you only get 4 when many other places give you 5 and some 6. Giving more makes it a better deal so to speak (4x5oz each=20oz for $12 when a pint is $7 or $8). As for the food, we started with deep fried cauliflower that came with a spicy dipping sauce (and it was spicy!). I had to try a burger which did not disappoint! I had the rodeo burger which consisted of two patties. I was worried that it would be too filling but they were on the thinner side which was just right. Fries come with it and they were mediocre, nothing special. My wife had the fried chicken sandwich which had a very generous piece of chicken. Buns were fresh and tasty. The place had a very fresh open look with high ceilings and garage type doors that opened to an outdoor patio, definitely a great place to sit in the summer and fall. Hostess was very friendly and the server was awesome, very helpful and made sure to check on us a few times during our visit. Going to make this one of our regular places for our weekly date nights! read more

I had heard good things about Brazen Brewing but could not find a day to go so a Yelp event finally prompted me to make it out and them for myself. I am glad to say that I had a great experience and definitely want to come back! I pulled into their parking lot on a Thursday around 5:15pm and somehow got a parking spot right next to the front entrance. The parking lot itself is pretty large, but with its location being a little "off the beaten path", I certainly can see it filling up quickly during peak times. Upon walking in, I was impressed with the large dining area with plenty of tables/chairs and the long bar with plenty of stools to sit on. They also have a large side patio and back patio with plenty of tables, chairs, and great views - the outdoor patios were dog friendly. The hostess said I could sit and eat at the bar, so I went right over and the bartender, an incredibly friendly, bubbly woman, came right over with food and drink menus. She was incredibly fun and accommodating, letting me sample a couple of beers before I settled on one for dinner, and I appreciated the suggestions when I narrowed down what I was looking at for food. Another comment about the staff was how friendly everyone was, they all were genuinely happy to be there and got along very well. After I placed my food order, I received a number and soaked in the aesthetic, while sipping on the "Under Shaker" Cherry and Vanilla Milkshake IPA, a special collab with Buffalo Beer Geeks. At 6.1 % ABV, it has the alcohol content without the expected IPA-notes. It was creamy and full of flavor, but I was told it was a bit, divisive, among customers... I suppose I am in the minority that liked it! haha About 15-20 minutes later, my dinner arrived. I ordered their Angry Burger - two double chuck-blend beef patties, cooked medium/medium-well, topped with crispy onions, jalapeno, pepper jack cheese, sriracha aioli, lettuce, and tomato and served on a toasted brioche bun, with a side of sweet potato fries (a $2 upcharge) that comes with a sweet cinnamon cream dip. The burger was excellent! Burgers were cooked perfectly, and they did not skimp on toppings speaking in both quantity and quality! The sriracha aioli was creamy and delicious, a standout for me with this burger. I thought this burger had the right level of heat/spice as it does not burn the lips, but you will know the spice is there. Their sweet potato fries were cooked perfectly as well and that sweet cinnamon cream dip was phenomenal, inject that into my veins! haha The size of the burger and amount of sweet potato fries was excellent and left me nice and full! Honestly, this was one of the best burgers I have had in a bit, and those sweet potato fries could not have been served any better, so shoutout to the kitchen staff at Brazen, nice job and keep up the good work! I am so glad I finally made it to Brazen Brewing! Friendly, fun staff, a good-size beer list with a nice variety of beer-types, great food, and plenty of space to hang out. I cannot wait to come back to sample more of their beer and grab another burger. read more

Great beer selection and food. Had delicious nachos and the wings were spot on too. Service was excellent. Inside is fairly cavernous but not crowded when we went. Too cold for the patio but it looks lovely. Enjoyed a flight of beers and bought a bottle of the "Shadows of the Night" Imperial stout. Great experience. read more

Stopped in for an awesome yelp event! It was so fun we got to try beers and ice creams from living the cream and the pairings were delicious and good! Brazen hosted with some tasty beers. I especially enjoyed the rhubarb it was tart but sweet and very unique. We tried their goat cheese pizza as well which was cooked nicely and very tasty. They have a fantastic back patio with lots of seating, a water feature and plenty of open sunshine or shaded areas to sit. Lots of space inside as well! Great event thanks to Brandon, Brazen brewery, and living the cream for a fun and tasty event! read more

Food - 4 Price - 5 Atmosphere - 4 First off, we love Brazen. Its great addition to WNY breweries and we want to see them have unlimited success. That being said, let's get into the review. Service - Everyone's promote, polite and professional. They do a great job asking questions to learn about your preferences and then making suggestions on both your food and drinks. They have made space for us when we have a larger party. Food - There is something for everyone and everything that we have had tastes great. Our personal favorites are pretzels, Brazen Burger, Angry Burger, Crispy Chicken (get sauces on the side) and all the fries. All of them have been so good that we have yet to venture to the other items, but we have been told that the pizzas are amazing as well. They also have a kids' menu, which is great. We love how they allow you to get a fruit cup with the meal instead of the standard french fries. The grilled cheese was extra cheesy and looked good enough to eat ourselves. Also, they have great beers, sours and ciders. I loved Mochi. But now some nice ones are: Peach Rings, Superfluous and Precipice. One suggestion; it's Buffalo so I would like to see wings on the menu. I know that wings have been overdone in Buffalo but, it also presents an opportunity to differentiate yourself (I have the perfect idea so HMU). Price - Very fair prices. No complaints here, you get a lot for the price of things. Atmosphere - There isn't much to complain about here. The building and decor are modern, clean, inviting and filled with light. It gives off modern farmhouse vibes without leaning too much into the aesthetic. The only and only improvement we can think of is a playground for the kiddos. Every time we come here, the place is filled with families, FILLED. There are always little ones walking around looking to explore with a parent happily trailing behind.

We had a group of 12 go to Brazen, and for most of us, it was our first time. Interior decor is open & spacious. Overall, everyone enjoyed themselves and we had a very good time! First off, the beer selection & quality was good. Also, many of us tried and liked the ciders as well. Thankfully, the ability to get 'flights' allowed us to try 4 varieties per round :-) The food excelled at Brazen, which is not often the case at a brewery establishment. We had variety of burgers, pizzas (incl. GF), etc., and left satisfied. We will be back! read more

We had ice cream pairings from "Living the Cream" which were also extremely delicious! Our server Donna was a delight and this was the second time she's served me. She always seems to be very friendly and bubbly. She made our experience even better! The food we ordered for dinner included the deviled eggs, chicken tenders and truffle fries.

What a great place to hangout with friends, family. This place has an amazing outdoor seating patio! They have a pond in the back and seating to watch the woods and pretend your out of the city. Nothing better with a view of the woods WITH a beer.. or two.. I induldged in the Lancaster lager and 10 medium wings and also an appetizer of Bang Bang shrimp. Let me tell you the food did not disappoint! Lovely bar style saucy wings, for only $1.25 each! The bang bang shrimp was loaded with tons of spicyness and flavers. Our waitress was very friendly and always coming back to see if we needed anything else . Go check this place out and grab some beers! read more

I'm going against popular opinion on this but I absolutely did not like this place. The interior is beautiful, very clean and inviting. The service is a bit of a struggle which I can totally say is due to that they probably didn't expect such a busy time at 3pm on a Friday, but still. The food has no flavor and has the same taste & consistency as a freezer baked meal. The flight I ordered was all substandard. They don't warn you that their sweet heat pizza is so incredibly spicy that is hard to eat. I love spicy foods but this was spicy just to give you the hot factor - other than that it was tasteless. read more
