A group of friends and I recently enjoyed a wonderful outdoor lunch at The Fargo. This place is really a treasure! There was a small issue and management promptly resolved it for us! It is such a friendly place. It always reminds me of the bar at Cheers, only those steps went down. read more

The food here was decent and we really liked the space. However, our service was a little iffy and everyone had something in their order incorrect. Our server was very friendly, and it did get a little busy, so we are just chalking it up to that. I did like that they had a GF flatbread option instead of your usual cruddy GF white bread alternative! read more

Fargo Bar & Grill - Caesar salad Sweet Potato Fries - Pubs Near Me - Aurora, New York

Such a homey place! I forgot to take pictures as I was with family, but this is a wonderful place to go to eat with family, friends, and id you wanted, a cozy date. The food has home cooked feeling, and just as delicious as if your nearest and dearest family member just cooked you a hardy meal. They have great food options for those looking for an american style menu. Love That my burger had the moose stamped into it! It is a little bit smaller inside, but thats what gives the cozy feel! They do have a patio as well. Their prices are very affordable for the delicious food you get hot and fresh. Its on street parking so make sure youre okay with a walk incase you go during busier hours, but it is well worth the adventure of finding parking! The inside is an old fashioned restaurant feel, again, as though visiting a family members home! The service is absolutely wonderful. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, as well as recommending favorites! Worth the stop! read more

Walked in and loved the vibe of the place. Not sure if they were short staffed, but our drinks sat at the bar for forever before we got them. Our waitress didnt really check on us. I had to get my own refills. Had the cran apple margarita, delicious, but would have had another if we saw our server. Started with the wings and they were rubbery. Got the fish fry and it was very oily.... Almost seemed undercooked inside but burned outside. Maybe the oil needs to be changed.. Fries were also bland and not salted. My friend got the soup in the bread bowl and raved anout Ithaca bakery sourdough. Other friend got the chicken sangwhich and said chicken was like a frozen manufactured patty.... kind of unfortunate. read more

Very nice place. Kids had bbq pork spouses Mac and cheese me burger with jalapenos and bacon. Drinks good.

Spend all day tubing on the lake came to this place at the recommendation of our boat loaner. First off- there is a Hugo spritz on the menu that is not a huge spritz at all, they should renamed it honestly. Secondly- flies everywhere, downstairs (where we sat), bathroom, everywhere However I got the BBQ pulled pork sandwich and it was fucking spectacular. Get the sweet potato fries and everyone was jealous. read more

Loved the vibe here, visiting on a cold winter weekend--seems like a fun bar with cool decor, ample space and seating and TVs for your sports viewing needs. We had a fun time here watching playoff football (sadly not the bills--I expect that would have been a real experience) and hanging at the bar with a few locals. Definitely enjoyed the beer selections as well--impressive draft list with some quality local options, including from the excellent local Aurora Brewery. Where they really fell down for us, unfortunately, was the food. I had a Bacon Blue cheese burger that was quite overcooked and a watery and bland chicken soup. My girlfriend got the hot turkey applejack which was ok, but she didn't feel well afterwards pretty much all night with digestive issues and what not. Not too many similar food options in the area, but unfortunately would recommend coming for the drinks but not necessarily staying for the food. read more

Today we took a trip out to visit my husband's aunt and uncle, and they suggested and wanted to bring us here for awhile to grab a bite to eat. It was a cozy restaurant, as you walk in one side with the bar and table top seating and the other side a few tables with one side booth seating. One of the waitress turned on the fireplace which made a nice and cozy. We ordered our drinks and entrees(I'll list them below), our waitress was friendly and attentive since it was my family's first time. All our drinks and entrees came out in very timely manner. My burger was cooked perfectly, I love the burger glad I chose sweet potato fries they were good. Everyone else enjoyed their meals, I saw they had a cider vinaigrette and it sounded good so I order a side salad with my meal. It was good but very sweet, wish it had a little more vinegar balance, I added just a little to my salad. If you're in the Aurora area stop in. I saw pictures they have outdoor seating/patio so that'll be nice in the summer . . . . Drinks: Blueberry Crush, unsweetened iced tea, Diet Pepsi, lemonade and water . . Entrees: Jalapeño Crunch Burger Pot Roast Poutine(regular size) Firecracker Naan(house made black bean patty) Side Salad w/ Cider Vinaigrette Kid's tender and fries (not pictured) read more

Love the Fargo for delicious, casual, reasonably priced meals! Great selection and service.

Loved this place! We stopped here while in town for the spa and enjoyed watching football and the delicious food. Seating upstairs and down, casual style. Our server was so nice and helpful taking time to make recommendations and talk about the dishes. As a Buffalo girl I was so pleasantly surprised and happy with the wings! Delicious. read more

Great little bar/Restraurant in Aurora. Kind of a woodsy golf theme. I got the zucchini Parmesan bread and some grilled vegetables. Nice, yummy fresh food. I would've loved to have sampled some of the cocktails as they sounded amazing but I'm driving so it's a safety thing. Prompt friendly service at the bar. I enjoyed it totally read more

We love the Fargo! Great food and a fun atmosphere. We especially enjoy going by boat to the Aurora town dock and eating outside on Fargo's back patio. read more

Very good food and service. A touch too pricey for what you get but still worth it. I'll go again when I'm that area.

To start off the outside looks pretty cool almost like an old hotel of sorts but when you walk in it's warm inviting ambiance. The service was good as well. I had the Fargo classic which was great grilled to order overall the food was great too. I recommend this place for lunch or dinner whether if it's with family or just yourself. It's not a bad place at all in a quite village read more

We LOVE the Fargo. We always stop here when we're on Cayuga! Really fresh food, amazing ambiance, we love sitting on the outdoor patio with their lovely greenery, those hydrangeas are stunning! Burger was so good, the bun is so fresh and delicious, love the little branding they put on it! The haddock special was great also! Service was great! read more

This restaurant does not disappoint. The side salad was decently sized but the real stars of lunch were the Rachel special and the smothered burger. The gravy they use was unbelievably great--thick and the right amount of saltiness. Burger was cooked perfectly and the serving of fries was large. Not one bad thing to say--great food, good service and nice atmosphere. read more

We were in the area for a day trip and decided to give this place a try based on the good reviews online and it did not disappoint. The service and food both were top notch. We called for the angus burger with fries and onion rings. Loved the onion rings. Also ordered their Arnold Palmer which was fantastic. Finished off with an apple pie which was superb. Enjoyed a few dart games. Very good burgers. read more

Casual place with good service and a standard menu for a bar and grill, except for one dish. This one dish on the menu I had never heard of, which I ordered and it provided a fun and interesting dinner. It was a staff pick named "Central NY Steak Bowl". It features Spiedie sirloin skewer, smashed salt potatoes, grilled corn salad, zucchini-garlic spread and luckily my friend who grew up in the area was able to decipher what it all was. It was delicious and the first time I ever enjoyed eating zucchini! I highly recommend it. read more

Generally stop a time or two on my way to Owasco Lake from Rochester, NY. The back patio is cozy and delightful. My family from Virginia loves the tater tots. I haven't found anything I don't like. Especially fond of the sweet potato fries. Sadly their specialty drinks are to die for. Don't hesitate to make the Fargo a destination. read more

The food is better than average pub fare. I had the burger as it is well known to be amazing and it did not disappoint. That char taste is perfect and so was the burger. Love the back patio area for outdoor dining. Access was a short walk up the hill from the dock, since we arrived by boat. Service was extremely friendly and efficient, and we had a wonderful lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Blue Moon should always be on tap in the summer IMO, bottled is just not the same, but they have a few options that would satisfy most tastes. read more

The food here is always fantastic - definitely one of the best pub-type restaurants in the area, hands down. They've got all upstate NY beer, but the cocktails are my personal fave!! Gluten-free options are great, they have such a great GF flatbread that is cut in half and used as a sandwich/wrap - not just those small slices of bread, or a wrap that breaks apart into a million pieces - A+ for that. read more

Great food, interesting menu, delicious drinks. Great service and very pleasant atmosphere. We will be back.

Not too bad for one of the few places you can choose from in Aurora. Came with a larger group so I'm giving some grace. There's a larger side room that they must use for overflow or larger groups. We were alone in this larger room which was fine because we can be a bit louder at times, but we felt a bit forgotten about there. The food was decent, not a ton of selection, but enough to keep the majority happy. The Mac and cheese was good but was a bit bland. The tots were pretty good. The beer list was just okay. If you're really big into craft beers you may find a couple but it may be a swing and a miss. Parking is tough, especially in the summer. There's a lot of cool memorabilia local to the restaurant on the walls, so if you like quirky history, this may be your place! I'd definitely go back, I'd expect the experience to be different with a party of two and they deserve a retry! read more

The back patio is really cute and spacious! The food options are great for such a small town in the area, it was also wonderful that they were open a little later in the evening. Service was also good and there's a billiards table. We enjoyed our meal. read more

This place is hit or miss. I've been here about a dozen times mainly for it's proximity to where I live. It's not the quality of the food that brings me back, or the sub par service. The ambiance is your average pub. The front sign with the 3 moose is the most unique thing about this place. I guess if you have nowhere else to go the food is edible. Their saving grace was the seasonal tuna tataki dish they had last summer which was delicious but is no longer offered and the portion was very small for $18. read more

Fargo Bar & Grill - Back patio. We ALL got the tuna tataki! It was so good! - Pubs Near Me - Aurora, New York

We were lucky to be seated right away on a weeknight - it was very busy, & we saw a group get turned away the night before at the same hour. The decibels were loud, with people shooting pool & families with very lively kids. Though Yelp menu pictures from years ago showed some really great beer choices (Heady Topper from Vermont!!), the ones tonight were less exciting. The food was hit & miss: The hits: Loaded Tots! - suuuuper crunchy, melted cheese, crispy bacon chunks, green onions, w/a side of excellent ranch Black Bean Burger! - even though the order came out w/the wrong toppings, this was the best black bean burger I've ever had. Crispy deep fried edges, great texture, soft bun, ripe tomato. The misses: Seared Tuna Tacos - they looked so good, these 3 big soft tacos. But the tuna slices were freezer burned, the spicy sauce was not tasty, & the shredded veggies were underwhelming. These could be so much better. My friend liked her Peach Gobbler Melt, but didn't love it. It seems like this is the place to come to shoot some pool & have a beer & some fried things. If that's your mood, this is the place. You'll be super happy with those loaded tots! read more

I go to the Fargo on a weekly basis. The food and service is always amazing. I would recommend this place to anyone.

For a bar & grill, I'll give it 5. Had dinner after visiting local Wineries. I had the Cuban and my wife the club. Both very happy with the sandwich (the club could use more meat). The marguerita with fin ground hot pepper on the rim is a recipe I'm going to steal as my own. BEST FRIES I've had in 10 years. Most fries are meh, I don't bother ordering them. My wife ordered them and man did I finish them. CARB WORTHY. read more

Outstanding experience! We can't wait to go back! The steak we all ordered was cooked to perfection and was flavorful. The staff was so kind in helping with orchestrate the surprised for my fathers 70th birthday. Truly a beautiful spot in Aurora! We can't wait to come back! read more

Had a really nice lunch here. My wife had a wrap and fries and I had buffalo chicken. All came out really well. We definitely didn't feel rushed. The food came out in around about the time we would except, but some of the other service was a bit on the slower side. Great pub ambiance and a nice place to stop on your way around the lake. read more

WARNING: Do not trust the allergen labels on the menu. For example, the wings are most definitely not gluten-free even though the menu labels them as such. They are cooked in a shared fryer with gluten-containing menu items, are cross-contaminated, and not safe for anyone with Celiac disease or other gluten intolerance. read more

Went for the nostalgia. (Didn't count on the literal flies buzzing around and constantly interrupting our meal/visit with friends.) Food was good though. read more

I visit Fargo occasionally with my parents, and the food is always good. My recent visit was exceptional--I tried the street corn tacos and the corn jalapeño soup, and both were amazing. The flavors were perfectly balanced and delicious. I would come back and eat these dishes 10 million times if I could. Highly recommend! read more

I'm not sure what happened between the early summer and now, but my last experience at the Fargo was much less than pleasant. It took more than 30 minutes to get our appetizers, which consisted of pot stickers and fries. We then received our three sandwiches 20 minutes later. When we asked to get the sandwiches to go due to how long it took, our server was less than polite, and their parting Snide comments were less than appreciated. I bit into my Ruben within a few minutes of it coming out and was less than enthusiastic about the soggy bread, less so than I was about the tomato bisque that had hard curled pieces of tomato skin that was missed, two bites of the soup was all I could do, bland and watery. I feel bad about this experience, as it has always been a great place to eat. Hopefully it is not the new norm, and I can add a few stars when I inevitably stop in again in the future. read more

I'm glad we stopped here. Was a little skeptical when we found out it was attached to the hotels, but it was worth the risk. Really neat atmosphere and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. Seeing wings on the menu and being from buffalo we had to see if they measured up. They were incredible. Crispy but still juicy with a really good sauce (it was close to buffalo sauce, but more peppery). We also got the famous Fargo burger and the prime rib specia. The prime rib had incredible flavor and the burger with hand cut fries were out of this world. Neat selection of a couple of local beers to try too. Really good food and a cool place. Also they were incredibly Covid friendly. Felt very safe choosing to eat in. read more

This used to be the place to go for a good meal at reasonable prices. They have drifted away from tradition, which is fine if you like 'almost' gourmet taste that's quite overpriced. My advice, go across the road to the Inn and get a great meal for nearly the same price. read more

Have been many, many times with great food and customer service. Not tonight, appetizer cold, Parmesan not melted for spinach artichoke dip which manager says "it's not normally melted." That's strange. Needless to say sent back 3 times to even be warm enough to eat! Fast forward to dinner .... Ordered a chicken sandwich NOT a tender sandwich. Mac and cheese ordered ... COLD. ALSO ordered a haddock dinner .... Who breaks the haddock off to fit on plate ? Never had in 35 years of my life. Ever. Send Mac and cheese back to be warmed. NEVER COMES BACK. Asked to speak to manager.... Advised sent food to be boxed. Says waitress is "too busy to come back." Pay bill......still waiting for food I paid for to be boxed and the mystery Mac and cheese ? What has happened to this world and customer service? Used to be a favorite ... sad to see local restaurants go to the curbside. read more
