TooGoodToGo order

For context, "Too Good To Go" is an app used by stores to sell food at the end of the day that would have been thrown out, in order to reduce food waste. Today after a long day of work I was craving pizza, and good pizza not from a chain store, so I placed an order using this app, which was $4.99, and $5.43 after tax. The pickup window was from 8:00 to 9:00 pm and I came at 8:52. I tell the lady at the counter that I have a TooGoodToGo order, and she tells me, and a lady who came in a few seconds after me, to show her our phones and swipe for TooGoodToGo. Strange, I thought we were supposed to swipe that AS she was giving us our surprise bags. But I did so, and she told me to have a seat while they get it ready. Only in retrospect did I realize she probably made us swipe so we wouldn't back out after seeing/feeling how little food we would get. As soon as I picked up the bag, I knew something was terribly wrong. The bag was light as a feather, not even half a pound, and I work in a deli weighing meat constantly, so I KNOW. In my head i'm hoping there's at least TWO slices of pizza and not one.. I open it as I'm a few steps away from the restaurant and see that they gave me seven small pieces of dry, cold garlic bread. I didn't choose a PIZZA place for garlic bread, and now i wasted a combined 40 mins on the bus, $4 on bus fare, and $5.43 on seven pieces of not even cheese bread, but just a third of a flatbread with some garlic paste smeared on it. The strangest thing? A few minutes after I took a seat, and the bags were ready, I heard the lady at the counter say to the man who just prepared the food, "this is for him?" and the man said yeah, and then the lady gave me the bag. Me and the other woman got the exact same $5 bag, and I know that since i just checked the app and all they're selling for tomorrow are also $5 bags. So why did he specify that this bag was for me?? If they had no pizza they could have just told me and I would have asked for a refund then. But instead they threw a few pieces of garlic bread into a bag and thinks it's worth $5.43.. And I also don't understand why it took five minutes to "prepare" my order, but the bread was still cold so it's not as if he reheated them or anything. If this is how they treat TooGoodToGo customers then they shouldn't be using the app at all. Except they wouldn't do that because then who would they sell seven pieces of their cold garlic bread to for $5!! The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth and I will never be back here to spend another cent at all and I recommend you do the same.

Food was great, and service was excellent. My husband and I previously ate here on a date night, and most recently brought our 13 and 7 year olds. There was no kids' menu, which was fine because 7 year old enjoyed the spaghetti and meatballs and kiddie cocktail!

Service + Recovery = Not here I called this location from my downtown hotel, and asked did they sell pizza by the slice and how much was it. The young lady on the phone without hesitation answers and says, "Yes we do and it will be 4.25 per slice". I asked specifically did they have pepperoni slices and she indicated, "Yes, it's $4.25". I said thank you, I'm right up the street and hung up. I leave my hotel immediately, (The Embassy Suites which is less than a 10 min walk away). When I enter the Hearth + Press there is one man behind the counter. I walk to the iPad to place my order to-go for the slice. He says, "we dont have anymore slices". He never spoke to me when I walked in, and I never mentioned to him I wanted to order a slice. I explained to him I just spoke to someone about the single slices of pizza, and a young woman told me they had them 10 minutes ago. He said she's in the bathroom and will be out shortly. The young lady comes out and doesn't acknowledge me, or explain why she lied on the phone. The guy behind the counter about 5 mins after that says, "are you going to order something?" I respond that I did a want a slice of pizza, now I'm trying to warm up and find somewhere else to go eat. It's freezing outside, with flurries and high winds. The lack of service recovery was absolutely atrocious. No accountability for misinformation or apologies to be found. I didn't want anything for free, I came to pay for food and leave. Pro tip: Skip this place, and try Osteria 166. Very good wood fired pizza, and I got the chicken parm to go! Most importantly the customer service was top notch.

Pepperoni and Basil pizza

As far as pizza in Buffalo it's the most decent I've had. Good sauce. Good ingredients. Dough got a bit soggy toward the end so maybe the ovens gotta be warmer to get that nice crunch on the crust. The space is actually so nicely set next to the Main Street with steady foot traffic, giving the inside a more alive feel. Staff is friendly at the register but be sure to grab your own napkins and be prepared to be ignored if you ask for parmesan.

chicken + mushroom penne

Food was great! We ordered the white 4-cheese pizza and chicken + mushroom penne. Both were well made. Our server was very nice, and we appreciate having been fit in without a reservation and on a night before Shea's. Lovely restaurant, it feels nice without being intimidating.

The food here is ridiculously good. We get the four cheese honey pizza every time we go, and we are OBSESSED. The service is great and the ambiance too as it's right across from the Sheas Theatre!

This hidden gem has quickly turned into my go to place for lunch in downtown Buffalo. Their pizza has a thin airy crust and the ratio of cheese and sauce is perfect. They cook their pizza in wood burning stove which adds to the flavor.

Love that the crust is thin and the mushrooms were delicious! The service was super quick during the lunch hour.

We made a reservation for dinner at 7:45 and we were surprised when we walked in that we were the only people there. The food was delicious, albeit a bit pricey. The pizzas were really tasty and the crust was delicious. Our waiter said his favorite dishes were the pizza and pasta we were ordering (3 meat pasta and fungi pizza) and suggested we add salami or prosciutto to our pizza so we added salami and were glad for the recommendation. The appetizers were a bit small and pricey but everything was really tasty. The meatballs were really delicious. Our waiter was very attentive until it came time to get the check but we were in no hurry so it was fine. Then it pass

Grandma pie, so good forgot to snap a photo until it was almost gone! Yummy
Nicole L.

We stopped here for a bite to eat before seeing a Show at the Tralf. Was hands down the best old fashioned I have ever had. My boyfriend ordered a margarita and enjoyed it. We had the special grandmas pie and it was amazing. The olives were good and the roasted veggies were good albeit mushroom heavy. Great ambiance and friendly staff. I only Wish this place was closer, we be regulars.

I don't cue up in the inexplicable lines outside…read morethe mediocre national chains, burning now overpriced gas for an overpriced substandard cup of coffee that was rapidly put together without much regard next to the breakfast sandwiches being assembled as their components sadly spew out of the microwaves and turbochefs. If you are as adorably crumudgeonly on such matters, support local! The sisters that run Unapologetic Coffee are creating something special. My work schedule doesn't allow me to get there in person very much, but when it happens its worth it. I said what I said is a fine brew either hot or cold and I am sure Black Mixed with Black will class up my home brewer until I can pay my next visit. If you want a damn fine cup of coffee, latte, made with care and respect from some incredible people, swing by the Best Self building and pay them a visit. The sisters who run the place are creating something special. They have a passion and joy for building great drinks and it is worth the dollars to having something local, BETTER than the crappy chains. A great cup of coffee awaits, get you some.

It has a really unique taste that simply offers comfort and love in every sip. I've had it hot and iced, made by different baristas, and it slaps every time! I've also purchased their coffee grounds to make cold brew at home and it definitely gives me a good kickstart to my day! Don't be fooled by the buildings' exterior. Once you walk into the coffee shop on the lower level of the shared building space, you'll quickly realize it's a great spot to connect with friends, colleagues, or alone! Lots of space and a really nice community table as well. 10/10 would recommend you visit!

The staff is always so friendly and kind. Ive been to the location on Elmwood as well. Almost 2 , 3 times a week lol . And the staff in both locations are wonderful . Not the drinks and food. There is soooo much to choose from , and everything looks and smells equally delicious. Our first visit I landed on the Pastashio frappe, and my daughter the hot chocolate. For a bit to eat I ordered the Bee bits. Which is Toasted Bread with Cream cheese and Honey. So delicious!!!! Recommend 100%. My daughter ordered two Macaroons. She also enjoyed. Now my go to drink is there Pistachio Latte!!!! Order one next time. You'll thank me later. We've also tired the virual fruit desserts. So far only tried the lemon. Was good but not my favorite. To much cream for my taste. But still very delicious. If you like creamy desserts that would be a great pick. They have soooo much to choose from. I get excited to return everytime.

Fun coffee shop in the heart of downtown Buffalo, definitely worth a visit…read more I was staying at Hotel Lafayette for a couple of nights and right before I checked out I decided to swing by to grab a coffee. While you can enter from the street, it's also connected from inside the hotel, which is honestly how it caught my attention. The space is actually pretty big, bigger than I expected. It's open, colorful, there's a ton of natural light, cool murals all over the walls, luscious greenery, and a variety of seating options. The counter where you order is nice and open, with a big menu, and a sheet of glass between the customers and what I quickly came to know is their staple item, the cruller - a donut-like pastry that's super airy on the inside with a delicious icing glaze on the outside. Along with my oat milk latte, I had to try one... ok two. I got a seasonal Pride one and I can't remember the other one. Both were dreamy and it was easy to see why they are so popular. If I lived in the area this spot would totally be a go-to for working out of when I want to switch up my scenery.
