I love Southern Tier Brewing Company's beer, especially their Pumking (though their limited Rumking…read moreis even better...) but I've also fallen in love with their Bourbon Smash cocktail-in-a-can they sell. The Empty Bottle is STBC's distillery and, to be honest, I think was more fun to go to compared to their bar/restaurant, The Empty Pint! Some family and I were visiting Jamestown for a weekend and after we had a few drinks and some food at The Empty Pint, we stumbled over to The Empty Bottle to sample some of their harder spirits and maybe some cocktails. Plus, we needed to escape the incredibly loud live music playing at The Empty Pint... Right from the start, it's a more intimate setting and was much more relaxed. We grabbed a table inside with no trouble at all and ordered a flight of their "Draught Cocktails". The ladies working behind the bar were incredibly fun, friendly, and enthusiastic and really brightened up our night! We enjoyed all of these drinks but we really loved one called "Transfusion", which was their vodka, Welch's Grape Juice, lime juice, simple syrup, and ginger ale. We all wanted to buy a few bottles of this, if they made it, it was absolutely delicious! The price for the flight was very reasonable too and they gave you a nice pour for each. If you want food though, you'll need to take a short walk over to The Empty Pint, though I'd recommend just grabbing some appetizers, do a bigger meal elsewhere. My advice to anyone visiting Southern Tier Brewing Company would be to first come to The Empty Bottle and enjoy cocktails and the harder spirits then round out the evening, once it gets a little later, with a Pumking (while it's on draft) at The Empty Pint, up the road a few steps. I'm really looking forward to coming back to The Empty Bottle the next time I'm in the area!

For my drive back to Cleveland from skiing at Holiday Valley I was looking for a place along the…read moreroute to grab some fish and chips for dinner. Steener's Pub popped up and the reviews were good. Located in Bemus Point just a couple of miles from I 86 made for a convenient stop. Steener's is located a bit outside of the Bemus Point main drag, but there are a couple of other businesses nearby. The building looks modern from the outside, inside it looks like the original bar area has been there quite a while, they then added a dining room and later a second dining room. The decor is casual tavern style, lots of wood and mellow colors without much extra. The menu is a nice mix of typical bar food with a good selection of fish and seafood which makes sense for a place so near to Chautauqua Lake. Service was good, the waitress was friendly. I ordered the fish and chips since it was highlighted in the menu. The order came out quickly, a huge batter fried fish fillet on top of a load of fries with side cups of tarter sauce and coleslaw. The fries and coleslaw were just what you expect, good but nothing special. The fish was outstanding, mild flaky white fish in a perfectly crunchy coating; delicious and very satisfying. My only complaint was that while it was nicely presented on a square plate, having the huge fish fillet on top of the fries made it difficult to eat since I had to move the fish around to get to the fries and cutting the fish with the fries underneath did not work well. I appreciate attractive food presentation is important, but this was too much food for the size of the plate. I really liked my dinner at Steener's, if they could raise the level of the side dishes to match the fried fish this would be truly exceptional. Keep making great fish, just upgrade the rest of food to match.

Twice Disappointed…read more We have now dined at this restaurant on two separate occasions, and unfortunately, both experiences left us very unimpressed--especially for a restaurant located in such a nice hotel and charging these prices. Our first experience was lunch in the spring of 2026 while we were staying at the hotel. We were extremely impressed with the hotel itself--the room, staff, and location were wonderful--so naturally we expected the restaurant to be of comparable quality. Sadly, it was not. Our food came out fairly quickly, but it was cold, and several items we ordered were missing. We then had to wait quite a while for someone to return so we could ask for the missing items and condiments, which were definitely needed to help the already subpar flavor. We left disappointed but decided perhaps it was simply an off day. We gave the restaurant another chance in August 2026 while celebrating my father-in-law's 89th birthday. Since this was dinner service, we hoped for a much better experience. His prime rib was actually very good, with no complaints other than the mashed potatoes being served cold. I ordered the Charbroiled Frenched Pork Chop, and unfortunately, it was awful. It had very little flavor and was dry and badly overcooked. The three onion rings served with it were rock hard, overcooked, and cold. They tasted as though they had been deep-fried much earlier and left sitting rather than being prepared fresh. I did send the onion rings back, but I chose not to send the pork chop back because I didn't want my 89-year-old father-in-law, who tires easily, to have to sit and wait while my meal was remade on his birthday. The coffee was another disappointment. At $15, even with a carafe provided, I certainly expected it to at least be hot. It wasn't. Our waiter was adequate and did nothing particularly wrong, but the level of service simply didn't match what I would expect at this price point. The interaction lacked the warmth, attentiveness, and polish you would normally associate with a higher-end dining experience. After two visits with many of the same issues--cold food, poorly prepared food, missing items, and service that doesn't match the prices--I don't think we can chalk this up to one bad night. The hotel itself is lovely, which makes the restaurant even more disappointing. With its location and atmosphere, this restaurant has the potential to be very good, but the kitchen and service need considerable attention. At these prices, guests should be able to expect freshly prepared, properly cooked, hot food accompanied by attentive service. Sadly, twice disappointed.
