    Located across the street from the LECOM Harborcenter, this is a great choice for bar food and great beers. Known for their beers (so many choices), wings, and beef on weck. There have a ton of seating, and it is a fantastic place for groups (we went with 45 hockey players and parents). The Poutine was ok (good gravy but not so good cheese curds). The Beef on Weck was very good, tender, flavor packed, but very salty (those with high blood pressure be warned). The staff were friendly and efficient. Enjoy.

    It is a good option to stop in the vicinity of the arena, or if you're out there and don't know where else to go. I am not specifically going out of my way to come to this restaurant. A group of us walked over after a Bandits game. We were seated at a long table. Although it was crowded in there, there was no issue in hearing our group talk. I liked the space and there were some bar games, including darts. I wasn't feeling the best and had fries and water. The fries were super good. I wish they provided some sort of dipping sauce to go along with it. My boyfriend had the chicken fingers. He said they were good, but just ordinary frozen fingers. My friends had a chicken sandwich, which they enjoyed, and the hot pretzels, which were good, but greasy. The atmosphere is great. This could be amazing. They need to step up their game on the menu and food offerings and the drinks. I wanted a cocktail menu and there are just beers and seltzers. I get this is a brewery, but you'd think it would provide more. Our server was magnificent. They were peppy, attentive, and friendly. Highly recommend the server and service, that was five stars.

    This place reopened a second time and feels completely different. The beer menu contains nearly all guest taps rather than including a variety of labatt brewed beers. I stopped in post Sabres game and the place was packed. It's a cool hang out spot if you can find a seat, otherwise feels like a regular bar rather than a "tasting bar"

    This is a must see spot. A restaurant and full bar right in the heart of the city. The vibe is off the hook. Large parking garage across the way, also next door and street parking available with lots of lighting close to the venue. Very hometown friendly neighborhood atmosphere. Clean, smells good, and fun. Amazing bartenders and shout out to the cook. Loved the QR codes around the restaurant for access to the food and drink menu. The burgers were Soooooooooooooo gooooooooood we sat at the bar, heard stories , and enjoyed being in the presence of the locals. The drinks were cold, the food was hot and the service was spot on. If you are in the area please do yourself a favor and stop in. It definitely is a HIDDEN GEM big shout out to Jason for making the day special. Jeff is a big Labatt Blue fan and being at the USA mother ship was a moment in time he will never forget. Melts my heart that people like Jason still exist.

    We have only been here a couple times and only for Drinks so far. On this visit back in February we came after attending a show at Helium, Jay from Jay and Silent Bob. We had a couple of rounds and played a game at the bar. Their beer selection was much better than the last time we came so that was a big plus for my friends that are all into craft beers. It wasn't super busy so we got a seat at the bar which is always a plus!

    Really cool atmosphere and great for groups! Large open space with big tables, including community seating. Each table has a drink and food menu on it. Big beer list - 4 for $10 flights. If you want a flight you write down the numbers onto the small slip of paper located in the box with the menus. Small food list but quality items. All the food we ordered came out very quickly! Their ordering system was weird though. If you want a drink, you're encouraged to sit at a table and let the waitstaff take your order. However if you want food, you can't order at the table, you must go to the bar or to a kiosk to order food. Food was good but not many shareable options. We ordered the meatballs, candied bacon, and artichoke dip to share amongst a group. Meatballs - 2 giant juicy meatballs served in tomato sauce. Great for 2 people, but messy if cutting up to share with a group. The candied bacon was good too, it came out as 4 long strips. People split them in half so we could all try them. The dip was the most shareable, and when we ran out of bread, a waitress brought more which was nice. Deducting a star because the service was confusing, a different waitress came by every time someone new came to our table, but not for refills. I had my tab with one waiter, but he never came back the rest of the night. Because all the staff help all tables, it seems like it would be efficient in theory but instead it seemed unorganized. I encourage you to check them out, but if you want good service, don't go immediately before events at the arena.

    Labatt Brew House opened recently in the Buffalo Cobble Stone district. Beer is brewed at this location, mostly smaller batches of beers you don't usually see with the Labatt name on it. They also have many beers of other craft breweries on tap or in bottles. Walking in gives you right away that industrial feeling: pipes, a (not working) transport belt over head and the brewery tanks are right there. The bar area is roomy and offers plenty of seating room. There is also a bigger space for private parties etc. I just had some beers with friends and did not try their food menu. Behind the bar is a big collection of beer cans.

    Great find! All the food was great. Wings have great flavor, the ropa vieja empanada and turkey club are great! Even the French fries were amazing very crispy and a crust. Service was great and very attentive. I had a flight to try some different beers out. The stouts were pretty decent but the flavor of the Buck Star Porter was the best! If it's there definitely get it. Why they didn't get 5-stars: To be honest, his place is actually a 4.5, so I had to lower them to a 4. I demoted them because most of the wings ended up a little soggy, I only found a few crispy ones. They should try a plate instead of a basket so the bottom wings don't get steamed. The flavor of the hot was great though.

    Great place to celebrate any Buffalo Sports! This place is jam packed for Sabres games but it's so much larger in there than you would expect from the outside. Plenty of bar service at each of the bars inside. There are plenty of TVs but I wish they were a bit bigger. Lots of seating area, and many, many beers available! When they are really busy they have a separate section of the bar that is reserved for food orders which is actually really smart. Food came quick and was delicious. We got bacon cheese fries and fish tacos. The real reason you come here though is for the atmosphere, it really is a blast being surrounded by buffalo fans everywhere!

    Such a fun spot for a large group to hang out! We visited from out of town and we were able to walk right in and find a table big enough for our group of 14. Beware, it does get really busy after a Lacrosse or Hockey game let out! You do have to order food and drinks at the bar, but they'll bring everything out to you when it's ready. The specialty wings were fantastic, I'm not a spice or heat person and I thought they were really good. The burgers were also a great size and come with chips!

    Fun bar/ restaurant with great beer selection. We love the outdoor patio, including games.

Hubs and I came for dinner with four friends a couple weeks back and though it was a splurge, I have no regrets. Everything I had was delicious. We had: Focaccia Roasted Carrots Wagyu strip Rhubarb Panna Cotta Pineapple Pavlova I also had a Freakin' Beacon mocktail. Everything was SO GOOD. That focaccia was like no other focaccia I'd ever had but was delicious; crisp on the outside, soft on the inside. The steak (med rare) was perfect to me, hubs thought it was a tiny bit too rare for him. It was super tender and easy to eat, perfect char. I couldn't eat the chimmichurri it came with as it has Thai basil (not usual in chimmichurri, but I'm allergic, and the server was very good about asking about allergies) but honestly, it didn't need it. That steak stood on its own. Both desserts were delicious, but to my surprise I think the pavlova was even better than the panna cotta (and I love panna cotta). The portions were very generous and I was pretty stuffed by the time I got home. Our portion of the bill was over $200 (hubs also had some cocktails and the steak alone was almost $90) but it was so good, we'll want to come back when we're in town for sure.

However, there was no popcorn, so they gave us some free nacho appetizers instead to share amongst everyone participating. They played the movie outside on their patio with a projector and blow up screen, which I wish it was advertised ahead of time that it was outside, so that we could be more prepared for the chilly weather. It also would have been better if they had their fire pit on and/or the space heater for those unprepared folks like us. Not your average Nachos 9/10 The corn tortilla chips were amazing by themselves. The queso, I was very surprised to taste homemade beer cheese (I didn't look at the menu before), it was really good and a little went a long way on those chips. I just wish the chips at the bottom had a teeeeny bit more. The only other topping was some shredded cheese. Salsa and sour cream were on the side, the salsa was good also.

    CBW is close to five stars but not quite there yet for me…read more The outdoor space is beautiful, with a brick fireplace and nicely spaced-out seating, and I'll certainly be back to spend some time on it. I like the building overall and the split-level upstairs arcade makes it feel that you're exploring different rooms, which is entertaining, even if some of the pinball games were out of order. The cartoon-and-movie-themed wall art adds to the fun, funky vibe. I've had friendly interactions with the staff both times that I've been, and I love that they sample the beers before having you commit to a pint. My thing is that the beer is all solid, but I've never had one that's among my favorites. This is really more a description of my palate than a knock on their brewers--everything seems true-to-style and the prices are reasonable, but something's just not doing it for me. But Community Beer Works is doing a lot right, and I've only scratched the surface of the veg-friendly menu, so I'll likely be back to give some things a try. Nice dogs are welcome on the patio. Some off-street parking is available across the street.

I ended up playing several funny rounds of ad-libs with strangers which totally made the evening. I felt welcomed and comfortable, like I immediately was one of the regulars even my first time there. The beer is great and they have a ton of options including stuff on tap and in cans. Look for the tv on the wall for the list of current beers on tap; it's on the far left side of the bar just above the large front windows. My curly fries and chicken strips were perfection - think of the best possible version of those things and that's what I got here. This came with sides of BBQ sauce, blue cheese dip, and ketchup. I greatly enjoyed my pumpkin ale and would happily drink this again. I appreciate that there are so many vegan options on the menu (not my thing but it's nice to have a place to bring vegan friends!). A surprising very cool thing was the restroom. There is great art all over the walls! Check it out even if you don't need to, you won't regret it. I sat at the bar; there is another room with tables and a pool table and I think I spotted some hidden booths in the back. There are also a few outdoor tables out front. Lighting is pretty dim so if you're going to read a book, choose your seat strategically. General volume is on the louder side. Parking is on the street. I saw that they do trivia on Monday nights; there are a ton of flyers for upcoming events in the front window. Overall this was a very easy place to give five stars to.
