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!

Long have I seen Prison City Brewery as I do my brewery researching but never actually strived for…read moretrying them. There were so many options to try for years I guess. 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.

Granted he was no threat at all but we decided to leave to keep the peace. This was a very unprofessional way to run a business but I guess he may have a following with the bar so he still works there. lol. He was a joke honestly. I would not suggest going here at all. Very small town energy with out the small town energy vibes or welcoming energy. Stay clear of this shit hole.

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!

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.

Enjoyed another evening here in what has become an annual visit. the savory steak salad…read more(Char-grilled sirloin steak cooked to liking with spring greens, roasted red peppers, feta, onion, bacon bits, Kalamata olives and choice of dressing) was huge, loaded with steak done just the way it was requested.

We shared 2 desserts: the turtle cheese cake and the pbexplosion cake (layers of chocolate cake and pnut butter mousse); the cheesecake was the winner here although both were very good. Actually we each felt as if we had too much chocolate; who ever says that?!

Awesome beer, great ambiance, the food is amazing when it's good, sometimes a little hit or miss but you're really there for the beer. The beertenders are always so friendly and willing to give recommendations. The parking is their biggest downfall, I wish they'd find a way to expand, even when there's parking further down the road, you typically get so muddy that it impacts your experience. It's usually crazy parking-wise when there's an event which unfortunately deters me some.

Sold me a 16.99 set of coils that were the wrong size assuring they would fit. When going to change my burnt coil I realized they did not fit at all. Even tried them in my other mod. Going back to the store they pretty much say they can't do anything until prompted further. In the end i had to buy a "discounted" set of coils for 7$ (originally 13.99) that did fit or I would have had to have gone somewhere else and buy the right ones at full price. So lost $18 for the coils that are useless, and 7$ for the right ones. Won't be going back. Employees who don't know ecigs shouldn't be behind that counter.
