We had a really late lunch Saturday and decided it was a good opportunity to try their late night menu for dinner...and opting to takeout makes it even more our speed. It worked out perfectly!! The late night menu starts at 10 pm. It offers most of their starters from the dinner menu, a small plate or two also on their regular menu, several different pizzas and a couple handhelds...and two desserts. There's plenty to choose from! We ordered the fig and prosciutto pizza, pork belly banh mi (star of the show), fries and the chocolate hazelnut torte. Everything was perfection! Possibly the best restaurant food I've had since moving here six years ago. The prices reflect the quality of the ingredients, the care that they put into preparing everything, and how delicious it is! I'm always griping about restaurant prices and quality of food here in Buffalo...that didn't even come close to being an issue with Beacon Grille. Everything was worth every penny! I want to go into great detail about each dish, but I don't want a TLDR situation. But trust me, it is worth it. Sampling the late night menu definitely inspired us to save up to actually eat in for dinner. I know we won't be disappointed! It's very exciting!

I'm not much a beer drinker but I might go back and try some next time I get a hankering for a sandwich :) 2 thumbs up!

You are welcomed as soon as you walk in and they make you feel like family right away. More than 30 unique sauces for your wings and chicken fingers. Ended up staying for several hours. Great conversation and you can tell the regulars that come here keep coming for a reason. The location is right in the heart of downtown Buffalo and plenty of on street parking. The music was good and the atmosphere is great. Prices are significantly better than most every other place I've been to, and the options are plentiful and unique. Highly recommend this place for drinks and food. A+! Check it out guys. You won't regret it.

Our waitress Kelsey was very friendly and sat down with us while taking our order. She also gave us some extra input of the wing choices. I started with a Kringle Juice, a very nice hazy Holiday IPA. Shortly after, our wings arrived; 1 order of mild Hayburner and 1 of Hot Honey. Both were very good. The hot honey are definitely my favorite, sticky but with a very tasty kick. Sorry, no wings picture. They looked so good we attacked them before taking a picture.

We ordered 10 of the Hayburner wings, medium heat, and 10 of the Hot Honey wings. We liked them both, but liked the Hot Honey ones more.

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.

I'm so happy they have vegan food, so I believe that everything here can be vegan, I was so excited…read morewhen I saw pretzels and vegan cheese but sad when they said they ran out so I'll be back for that. I got the vegan Mac n cheese and the chicken tenders with fries. Everything I got wasn't good, the breading on the 'chicken' was disappointing and tasted like old oil. The vegan blue cheese was good surprisingly cuz I don't care for the real thing at all. The fries were fine but the Mac n cheese had absolutely no flavor, my kids said to me that mine was better and they aren't that picky with food elsewhere unless it doesn't taste like anything. For that I'll still be back to try other things cuz I appreciate the effort in making vegan food for us vegans out there.
