I was going out to dinner before heading to hear friends at Open Mic night. The place I started at…read morehad at least a 45 min wait. So we decided to go somewhere else, but where? As we turned the corner we saw a sign in front of A.T. Walley's for $5 burger and chips or 2 Hoffman Hots with chips. Well, the price was right! The guy was outside on the sidewalk grilling them and it smelled really good. So even though I was in the mood for wings, we decided to give the food here a try. We went in and got a table with no problem. Waitress said that along with the regular Wednesday night specials they also had $4 Beef on Weck for $4. We were really hungry so we ordered 2 Beef on Weck sandwiches and the hot dog special. It was amazing! The beef and au jus was fabulous! They each came with kettle chips and pickles. Yum!!!! And who does not love a Hoffman Hot, right?! Then we saw that they had 11 menu items for just $5 on Thursday nights from 4-10 pm. We had to be downtown again the next night so we went back! I got the grilled chicken Caesar Salad and he got the NYS Fair beef and Lamb Gyro. Once again, full portions for only $5! What a find!! We had always just gone there for drinks and music prior to this. They have a great bar selection and have $3 drinks on Monday nights....including their signature cocktails! It is a great place to go, have a drink, hang out with friends, listen to music on occasion and now I will be stopping in to check out more on their menu as well!

I was in Auburn and looking for a place to have a good cup of coffee. I pulled up Roast & Toast…read morewithout realizing it was Simple Roast's new shop. I am going to be honest, I have had coffee over the years from their standalone kiosks and have found most of their drinks to be overly sweet with barely a taste of coffee. I did have their regular coffee several times and it was good. I know they have a good following and this is just my preferrence to have flavor but still a good coffee taste. I walked in and noticed how clean and comfortable looking everything was. It's not huge inside but there's a decent amount of seating if you want to sit down and enjoy your coffee. I didn't realize they had food as well so I will definitely try some next visit. I asked the barista about any homemade syrups, because I like to find interesting flavors and some unusually delicious combinations. They have a full selection of bottled syrups but the barista pointed out that if there are homemade syrups they will be featured on the drink specials. I selected the special Matcha Latte with espresso, homemade fig syrup and homemade plum bitters.....WOW!! It hit every note for me. The employees were friendly and the barista who helped me... thank you for being patient with my questions. This lovely spot is also open in the evening for cocktails! I will definitely be back.

It can get rather cramped so take a peek in and make sure you'll have a spot to perch should you want to stop in for a drink! I've also been here during the day, you just have to go all the way down to the end to order a coffee. I've had mixed service experiences, mostly super attentive and friendly but one barista during the day wasn't the most customer friendly. I'd still gladly go back, the vibes are mostly great and I bet it's a nice spot to bring friends visiting!

We had a group of twelve, and about seven of us really enjoyed our entrees. The macaroni dish, fried chicken, and salads were the favorites of the night. I'm a bit tough on fried chicken (being from the Deep South!), and while it was a little too salty and the skin crispier than I prefer, two others at the table thought it was great. Thank you, Prison City, for a fun evening with my lady friends!

But as time has passed it's thinned out as my check list is vast and a lot of breweries are closing due to industry challenges and headaches. So it was time for Prison City. We had the Earth, Wind & Foeder which is a lager. It was pretty good, no complaints. Perhaps lacking just a tad in personality but not enough to ward away. Flavor highlights with this beer are hoppy, crisp, balanced and subtle which is maybe where I had the idea of the personality comment without realizing at the time it was purposeful. Also the beer is very light bodied like a light lager should be.

We were seated immediately when we walked in. As expected we got chips and salsa. First thing we noticed was that the chips were warm. Usually they are straight from the bag to the table but these were not. The salsa was thick and tasty. I ordered the Santa Fe burrito. The server said it was the most ordered burrito and I could see why. It was filled with steak, chicken and veggies with a corn salsa on top. I do not like beans and rice in my burrito, I asked if I could get it on the side instead and they were quick to accommodate. I really enjoyed this meal.

Really nice bar and restaurant with great food and good prices…read more It's a two page menu with a nice amount of options for vegetarians, although they made my inner-Buffalonian happy when I saw Beef on Weck on the menu. I had a veggie burger and it was pretty tasty! A good meatiness - if that's what you're after. The real star was the fried cheese curds from the specials menu - salty, a hint of sweet from the light glaze on them, crunchy fried outside, and ooey gooey cheesiness. The drink prices weren't listed on the but turned out to be very reasonable. I was at Parker's with a large group and they handled us really well. We happened to be there on night with live music and the two brothers they had playing were great and part of my group kept half singing along while the rest could carry on conversation just fine. The decor is nice- old wood and gorgeous stained glass ceiling lamps that are all different. Everyone had their own favorite. The bar has a patio area that can be opened up in nice weather. Car parking is in on the street. I didn't spot any bike racks nearby but there are sign posts that could serve. It's in a very walkable downtown.

It definitely is like stepping back in time and there's no Wi-Fi service so guests are enjoying the live music or socializing! We ordered pretty quickly at the bar, we were not offered menus so I'm not sure what their signature cocktails are. Ordered a martini requested fruity, I believe it was raspberry not sure and a dark red for my friend. We sat in some cozy velvet purple chairs in the lounge area enjoying live Jazz music. My friend recalls this was a downstairs dining area for Burger King in the 80's-early 90's. The bar and Bath Room could be a bit tidier, but otherwise fun retro vibe. There is an historical piston machine on display that was used to run the building's original elevator utilizing steam! And now serves as decor and remanence of past decades.
