My dad and I eat here twice a week. We both tend to be picky and expect good service. Buffalo Brewpub has NEVER let us down! All of the servers are excellent!!! A rare thing to find these days. We always feel welcome and all are attentive and friendly. Their pricing is also excellent and they have a couple of reward programs that allows you to save even more. They brew several beers in-house. You will find one you will enjoy. Of all the places we could go, we always go here. They have a very diversified menu. Give it a try, you'll be happy you did. read more

It was spare of the moment dinner as my son came to visit. We were told a half hour wait on a Friday night and it was more like 10 minutes. Which was a nice surprise. Employees are very welcoming and courteous. Helped us with choosing beers. The food was delivered quickly and cooked perfectly. With the amount of people service was great and wonderful. We will be back! read more

Started out with the complimentary peanuts and popcorn. So many excellent choices for dinner, drinks and dessert. With fast and friendly service I received my appetizer of the veggie Quesadilla, it was a Lil wet for my liking with soggy veggies. Next came the Impossible burger which was very over cooked, bitter to the taste. Lots of full bodied beers .A nice size bar and plenty of on site parking. read more

With speedy service and a smile I received the veggie quesadilla which was soggy .Next up was the cheese pizza very thin with too much oil and not tasty.Also ordered the impossible burger which was completely burnt , like eating charcoal.Huge bar if you just want to come in and have a cocktail. Lots of free parking in their lot. read more

Very cute and cozy spot. It's pretty dark and the vibes are good. They have popcorn and peanuts to snack on which I loved. The popcorn was a bit stale. I had the chopped salad which was really good. It came with a Caesar vinaigrette which was really tasty. I think my salad was supposed to have egg but they forgot it lol it's okay. Good service and I imagine it gets super busy for games. Really nice. read more

Such a fun place to hit up after a Bills game. It's cozy and feels like home. Fun food creations kept it interesting for us as it was our 4th day in town trying local fare. A great place to thaw out and fill up, we'll be back! read more

My husband and I came here with our baby. Our friends with their baby came as well. It was super crowded since it was a Friday night, but we were able to get a table. The first table was too small and cramped close to others, so they kindly moved us to a booth that was bigger and in a less crowded area, which we appreciated the accommodation. Our server was great and had a friendly and upbeat personality. He gave us all the time we needed to get settled and look at menus before ordering. I got the chicken quesadillas, and they were great. It was a huge portion, so I wasn't able to finish them and took it home with me which was nice. Highly recommend! read more

One of the early pioneers of the brew bars (multiple taps ala McGregors in Rochester). I really like the wood interior, plenty of seats to watch the Bills, complimentary peanuts you can eat and chuck the shells anywhere, plus Utica Club on tap. Two stars for Uncle Charlie alone. Fun place and food is good too... read more

I have steak and fries for steak was at a nice chair on. It was cooked medium just how I ordered it. The fries were hot and crispy. Service was awesome. Very attentive bartenders. I'll definitely be back. They also offer free, help yourself, popcorn and peanuts in the shell. Something in the munch and while you're waiting for your food to come out. read more

Had to have a great buffalo style fish fry. The only thing missing was potato salad, but everything else was there. I would say that the macaroni salad lacked a little seasoning, but other than that everything was excellent nice big chunk of haddock. read more

I'm a rewards member so I came to get $10 off my meal at the end of my birthday month. We had a 15 minute wait for a table so I went for some free popcorn when we sat. It's quite loud in the dining room when it's full. The boyfriend got chicken fingers and I got the Santa Fe chicken salad. I would have liked to see the chicken tossed in the bbq prior to plating instead of the drizzle that was on my actual salad. Pretty light on the cheese and lots of green onions for me to pick off, as I don't like them and they weren't listed. I'd order it again though and ask for no green onion and chicken tossed. The chicken fingers were basic frozen tenders with thin battered style fries. I'd go back for happy hour dinner at the bar. read more

First off, I've probably eaten here at least 25 times over the years as my office used to be right up the street. I have not been here in several years. My son had to have an MRI so I took him and my Younger daughter to the brew pub to grab a burger because that's what we agreed upon for our meal. I would've thought after all these years, they would've washed the rugs in the entranceway and wiped down the floors. There has always been a musty smell. I can only describe it as a combination of flat beer and urine. But the food was always very good regardless of what you ate so you tolerated it. We got there probably at 7:30 on a Friday. The place was packed, which was good to see. I ordered a burger, my daughter had a chicken finger sandwich and my son had a steak. My kids wanted mozzarella sticks, which were nondescript. Right out of the Freezer and into the microwave, and then into a small basket. There were no side plates. When they brought the dinners, I noticed that the plates have become incredibly small! I mean, if you don't watch when you put your burger down, you'll miss the plate. Our waitresses name was Cassidy and she was fantastic. If I ever go back there, it would just to be seated at one of her tables. My daughter really liked her chicken fingers, my son thought his steak was OK, but my burger was horrible. I could barely eat it. I let Cassidy know that it tasted like it was spoiled. She said she would let the manager know. Approximately 5 to 10 minutes later some guy came up to our table, and wanted me to "explain what happened". I said you served me a burger with spoiled meat. Since I know how to cook, I told him that it seems, that when they ground the meat it was left out too long or it was yesterday's grind. The hamburger had a horrible smell to it. He informed me that they buy premade patties and they don't grind their beef! Are you kidding me? How can you primarily be a Burger place, and not have your own recipe. I'm sure places like this exist in Buffalo, but where are they? Whenever you watch a cooking show on TV, you see these restaurants, that make everything from scratch. All their own sauces, they bake their own bread, and they use a special blend when they make hamburgers, and they brine all their own meat products. Etc. I told the manager that would explain the rancid smell and taste of the burger. It was probably frozen and thawed and left too long before they cooked it. He offered me 20% off, which is kind of silly. I mean I did take a couple bites of it and I ate some of the fries. And I said do whatever you wanna do, but I'm never coming back. The waitress was embarrassed when she brought the check and the manager did take 50% off. But I ain't coming back. There are tons of choices around this restaurant on Main and Transit Road. Burger King is right around the corner and make a much better hamburger. I used to enjoy the food here, but hearing that they don't make their own hamburger patties is absolutely disgraceful. The fact that they were somewhat spoiled, it's even worse! read more

Good service, and great food. The popcorn and peanuts make it so you are never hungry, while you wait for your order. I am sad they took the pulled pork pizza off the menu but still plenty of good old American food to satisfy everyone. Warm and inviting atmosphere even if you wait at the bar for a table. read more

Stopped for lunch today with my cousin. As a much younger man this place was a crazy beer fueled place called Melanie's. I think I spent the whole year I was 18 there. Time has cleaned up the beer soaked floor although, the place looks remarkably the same. We were seated on the old dance floor and I half expected to hear some Bob Seager. The place is nicely decorated for Christmas. It took a couple of minutes to get a menu. I had the house blueberry beer which was tasty and cold. The server pointed us to a barrel of peanuts and a popcorn machine. You don't see that often anymore and I enjoyed the peanuts in the shell while trying not to get them everywhere. My mushroom burger could have used some more mushrooms or, at least don't cook them so they were unrecognizable. I like a rare burger. It's hard to get but this was better than most. The fries, which had an up charge, sat under a light too long and could have been hotter. I wouldn't grumble but, if I'm paying more, get it right. The fish hoagie looked good and was enjoyed. I enjoy stopping here for nostalgic reasons but something is missing to make it special. read more

Conveniently located near the airport-11minutes away! Great service and great food! Ate beef on weck for the first time it was delicious, but was not a fan of the salt so I dusted it off the bun lol! fresh bread and the beef was tender. I ordered the Buffalo sampler which comes with 6 wings and a mini beef on weck, and I cleared my plate!! I do not drink beer but the bar had a cider for me and it was also delicious. The service at the bar was wonderful. read more

How do you not respect a business model that has stood the test of time for 40 years? Wednesday afternoon and every table is filled with a lunch time crowd yet service was prompt and attentive. Portions are abundant. Prices are very reasonable. Quality of food (sandwiches, sides, bar food, soups) is right up there and certainly better than a chain. Peanuts and popcorn are helpy selfy. Buffalo Amber is still as delicious as the first glass I had in 1986. read more

We stopped by for lunch around 2pm and there were about 20 people in the place. We hadn't been here since before the pandemic. We placed our order. I went to the restroom to wash my hands, which appeared clean, and grabbed some free peanuts and popcorn. Much to my amazement, our food was already at our table. We thought, wow that was fast! I bit into my chicken sandwich and it was burnt on the outside as if it was cooked on a grill with way too much heat. My friend's steak was also burnt on the outside. It was blood red on the inside. It was supposed to be medium-well. The cook apparently rushed the food, yet there was hardly anyone in the place. We mentioned it to the waitress, but we didn't want to make a big deal so we just ate it. We received the bill and I paid with an old $50 gift card I had from many years ago. The waitress brought back the bill for us to pay the balance, which should have been covered in full by the gift card. She only took off $41. We waited 10 minutes for her to come back. I said, "You only took off $41 instead of $50". She said, You had an old gift card and Buffalo Brew Pub takes off $1 per year for lack of use as an inactivity fee. I said, "that's illegal in NY state. Merchants aren't allowed to deduct any money from a gift card because the card is equivalent to cash. I explained to her, in the past decade, I've bought over $2000.00 in gift cards per year and I've never had a gift card lose value. Think of it this way, If I had placed a $50 bill in my safe 10 years ago and took it out today, it would still be a $50 bill. It wouldn't be a $41 bill. Furthermore, 10 years ago, when I was nice enough to give your restaurant $50 and buy that gift card, I could have bought lunch for 4 people. Now you're telling me, my same $50 can't even buy lunch for 2 people because the card's only worth $41. I want to speak to the manager. " She said, "I'm sorry, he just left 5 minutes ago and he won't be back for an hour." I said, so you're telling me there's no one I can escalate this to and speak to about this. She said no. I said, "do you realize that if I invested that $50 ten years ago, it would probably be worth $100 today? So your restaurant made money on that $50. They didn't lose money." I left some cash on the table to pay the bill and left disgusted. I will never ever ever go to Buffalo Brew Pub again! And, I will post this on social media and tell everyone I come across about how are food was burnt and Buffalo Brew Pub ripped me off. My friend and I talked about how much tip I left, while we drove away. How much tip would you have left? read more

Nice hometown brewery bar. Beers were good, all the peanuts you can eat. Wings were great!

We haven't been here since pre-Covid and decided to go for a weekend lunch. We were seated right away and got to pick out our booth! We had a great waitress named Lisa who was super attentive and gave us a great dining experience. The pretzel appetizer was so good, but sadly did limit our eating of the main foods. Damn carbs! Great burger, terrific Reuben, great service. We had to really restrain ourselves from getting their complimented peanuts and popcorn; you have no idea. You could tell that all the staff were genuinely trying to provide a nice experience and in recent times, that has been hard to find. Kudos to Buffalo Brew Pub for maintaining and thriving throughout all these years! We will be back soon! read more

WNY beer pass- only their house beers count for the pass deal. See ratings on untappd! Our server was great, friendly and attentive. Chicken Wing Soup 10/10 I love how thick this is. And it has a great hot saucy wing flavor. Plenty of chicken. Veggies cooked perfectly too! See previous photos! Mac and cheese: black & blue mushroom (todays special) 9/10. Based on the name I thought this was going to have hamburger chunks in it too, but it did not, just blue cheese crumbles and mushrooms. Pretty decent. It wasn't super cheesy but the flavor was really good. Not much blue cheese flavor from the crumbles, just a hint. It was mushroom-y, and peppery (little too much pepper in some bites). There was a good amount of sauce. It wasn't like plain wet noodles which I was thankful for. I'd order this again! read more

Stopped in Buffalo to see to a friend on our way home to Schenectady. He suggested we meet here. The menu drove me crazy. I wanted to order about 10 different things but I decided I needed to go with the "Buffalo Traditions". They have a sampler that has 6 wings and beef on weck. I got that. The wings were so crispy. Perfectly cooked, but no flavor. My fault for not saying anything but we were in a rush to get home. The beef on weck was good and it came with a side of horseradish. The pub is cute and clean and has free popcorn and peanuts and I would say the friendly staff I have ever seen! I'll go back and try them again. If the wings had enough sauce on them, they would be dynamite! read more

Looking for a burger on a Friday night before heading to the movies, some family and I ended up coming to Buffalo Brew Pub and having a great time! I arrived around 5:30pm on a Friday to an absolutely PACKED parking lot, so I ended up parking across the street and walking over! Upon walking in, it was definitely bustling but I was able to find the table my family grabbed with ease. As soon as I sat down, our waitress Joelle came over and took my drink ordered and dropped off everyone else's (I was a bit behind everyone else getting here). She gave us the right amount of time to review the menu as we sipped on our drinks and caught up. She made sure to tell us the daily specials before we looked over the menu. She did a great job checking on us throughout our dining experience and made sure our drinks were never empty. All-in-all, Joelle was excellent! For dinner, I ordered the Bison Dip Burger adding bacon, cooked medium, with a side of their pub fries. The burger was cooked perfectly and tasted excellent with a little char taste on the end! I really liked their house-made chips on top, adding a crunchy texture, which paired so well with the creamy, savory Bison Dip, dolloped generously on top of the burger. The lettuce and tomato looked and tasted very fresh and the added slices of bacon added a little extra flavor, a solid addition I would totally get next time. The pub fries were dense and perfectly cooked and were a great way to finish off a tasty burger! As to the portions, they were perfect - I walked away full without being stuffed. As for the prices, compared to other nearby bars/restaurants, the prices were very much in-line with what you'd expect. We were going to grab burgers at another bar but I'm glad we wound up at Buffalo Brew Pub. A friendly waitress and a solid, filling burger with family and friends at Buffalo Brew Pub is a great way to wind down a busy work week. read more

A group of 4 us visited after the Buffalo Bills victory over the Steelers. We knew we would have to wait 45 min and that was fine. As a starter we chose the a Buffalo Chicken Wing Dip - I worked highly recommend this as an appetizer! I was not disappointed! Filled that up with a Beef on Weck w/steak fries and coleslaw. The coleslaw was quite bland and would not recommend. The fries were just fries take 'em or leave 'em. The Beef on Weck was good but I was disappointed in the bun as it was as soggy and hard to pick up. Don't worry though I managed to eat it all! This is a restaurant I would come back to try more of the menu items! read more

Went here for dinner tonight. This is one nice place inside with fireplaces and stone work everywhere. Seeing the beer vats where they make their house brews is very cool. We chose their amber ale and Buffalo lager, both tasting great with the ale having more of a bite to it, the lager has a nice light taste. They have complimentary popcorn and peanuts where you help yourself and scoop them into paper trays. Both tasted pretty good, especially the peanuts. Our server was a bit too fast in the ordering process. I felt really rushed. We ordered the small order of Wings ($18 for 10) and Beef on Weck ($15) and both came out in 20 minutes. The wings were nice and crispy and tasted really fresh, a good size too. The blue cheese was chunky but didn't have much flavor. The Beef on Weck had lots of beef on it and the bottom bun was dipped in au jus. It was pretty good. I liked the bun topped with caraway seeds and salt. The Chicken Wing soup was really good: thick, tasty, and spicy! read more

The food was delicious and I was very happy with the service. They were very accommodating for our group of eight.

In all my trips back to Buffalo, I've driven by BBP on numerous occasions and never stepped foot inside until my recent visit. What took me so long? We stopped by at the end of happy hour and it was a short wait for a table, so we stepped up to the bar for some beers. The beer menu is quite large, but I believe we all settled for their home brews. $13 for three beer? We all got another round of the same beers later, it was only a dollar or two more for all three...so quite a bit less than what I'm used to paying for a pint of beer. Nice! While waiting, we grabbed some popcorn and took a seat. The floor was covered with peanut shells, but I didn't see any peanuts around. Before we had a chance to get a few sips of beer in, we were notified a table was ready for us. We got some wings and burgers. The wings were good, as were the burgers. The burgers were HUGE...2/3 lb (I got the Bison Dip Burger). The menu had so many options, but a burger sounded like it'd hit the spot and they did. Food was solid. Beers were great. Service was outstanding. I can see myself going back during a follow up visit. read more

Updating after the "break". Lunch dates are back, this people pleasing venue has been the recent choice. There's something for everyone. Salad, soup, wings, burgers, wraps, a long list of appetizers but the popcorn and peanuts might be enough for you. Great beer selection or you can get a mixed drinks or wine. Lunch, dinner, happy hour at the bar whatever the occasion a satisfying time. read more

Buffalo Brew Pub is the best brew pub with free peanuts and popcorn. In all seriousness, my family has become regulars. It was my first visit. I had the California burger, cooked medium rare to order. It was excellent. My sons can always find something they want on the menu though one had to share my husband's double order of wings because they are currently unavailable on the kids menu due to the shortage/prices. No biggie. Service is great. read more

Still love Brew Pub but thought I should update. We have ordered to go a few times since the pandemic started and at some point a month or so ago their prices increased but they have not put those prices on the website, and some items not all are drastically higher than the website says. And as you will see from my photos, it seems like it depends on the day or the chef as to how your order will come. Chopped salad always different and fries sometimes you get a lot sometimes you don't (didn't take that pic) . Or it's because it was take out v sit down read more
