Staff continued to serve a woman who was clearly very intoxicated, which was uncomfortable and felt irresponsible. On top of that, there was obvious drug activity going on in the bathroom that seemed to be completely ignored. It didn't feel like a safe or well-managed environment. Disappointing, because the live music deserved better.

Yet I had an awesome time after all! Props to the woman working all jobs behind the bar because I don't know how she did it but we NEVER waited for a drink or shot! One friend was playing quick draw and had no problems paying or cashing in. And they ordered wings that did not go to waste. My allergies never bothered me despite the dog. We played darts all night which was really fun and no issues with cheap broken dart tips. I look forward to coming again when in the area.

Lock 34 was the choice for this week's family lunch on our way home from our adventures…read more We arrived and walking through the expansive patio/bar area I was thinking that this place is going to be something good. Within moments of walking in to the big dining area which gave off a high end feel the hostess had us seated and the waitress had the drinks coming in record time. By the time she came back we were ready to order. We asked for the kids finger meal, Well our waitress Maggie clearly knew what it's like to dine with kids, our little helpers food came first and in record time. Super crispy chicken and fries which were reviewed as "super awesome ". I got a cup of French onion soup, it had a good layer of cheese and was full of onions, even on a 80 degree day that soup satisfied. The misses got the chicken bacon ranch pizza, which came out with a seriously generous covering of chicken and bacon and a nice perfectly cooked cheese/dough. Fantastic flavor and very well made. The garlic parm wings were great, came out extra crispy and saucy....this was definitely a house made sauce, it was well made and worthy of a French fry sopping. I was pleasantly surprised they were also quite meaty. I'm also a bleu cheese fan, theirs was chunky and had a familiar tang to it. I'm a huge fan of great service and good food. Lock 34 delivered on both. Even though it's out of the way of our normal area we eagerly are looking forward to a return visit.

When you're heading there, you may think you're going the wrong way as it's in a more industrial area and the main restaurant is a storage container. Since my first visit, they have really expanded their area and their menu. They now have a large outdoor seating area with a fire pit and bocce ball courts. They have league bocce on certain nights. On this particular visit, I just ordered ahead for pick up. My order was hot and ready, waiting for me when I arrived. I ordered the chicken pizza rolls, which are juicy rotisserie chicken, rolled up in their homemade dough, then baked in a wood fire then brushed with garlic butter and Parmesan cheese. You are able to choose a dipping sauce as well as a wing sauce. I chose blue cheese and BBQ. The rolls were delicious and had big chunks of chicken in them. I would definitely order them again!

We hadn't tried this location of Big Ditch yet, so we chose Big Ditch for the evening. Having been to Big Ditch in Buffalo many, many.... many times before, the quality and service were no surprise. Food is good, service is good, beers (although I can't drink them anymore) I'm sure are good. One of the more pleasing parts of the evening is the location this Big Ditch was built into. Historic building in the middle of town; a lot for someone interested in history, architecture and art. The dinning and bar area is spacious. There is a separate downstairs area with a full bar and game room. Like the Buffalo Big Ditch, it is diverse and offers options for someone looking to host an event or party. Solid.
