The view is worth it. Amazing. Go just for this. Add a cocktail and watch the sunset. Dont order the food, takes way too long to get. Bartenders were nice. Uber to and from here. Not safe to walk (per the employees) read more

The only saving grace of this restaurant was the view. Everything else was a huge disappointment. Our waitress, Olivia, seemed genuinely annoyed that we were there to order food. Three members of our party ordered shrimp tacos, only to be told they were out of shrimp and the tacos would be made with steak instead. Those three meals arrived nearly 30 minutes after the rest of our table had already been served, leaving part of our group eating while the others just waited. To make matters worse, while we were joking among ourselves about whether they were "still killing the cow back there," a male server walked by and responded, "Don't say sh*t." Completely unprofessional and unnecessary. At the end of the meal, we discovered a 20% gratuity had already been added because of our party size. While that's understandable if it's clearly disclosed, we couldn't find anything about it on the website. Even more concerning, our waitress did not provide an itemized receipt until we specifically asked for one and took an unusually long time to bring it over. Without an itemized bill, it would have been very easy to accidentally leave an additional 20% tip on top of the automatic gratuity. Between the poor service, long wait, inappropriate staff interaction, and lack of transparency with the bill, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had. We won't be returning. read more

Only came here for drinks, during the week around 8pm and had a good experience. It's a nice atmosphere with a variety of seating including some around a fire pit. When we were there, the crowd was a mix of people of all ages. Bartenders were friendly! Overall I'd come back for drinks again and would try apps too. read more

Went there for a specialty cocktail and was not disappointed! Bartender was very personable. Would recommend. read more

Nice spot with tasty wine and cocktail options with a fantastic view of the harbor. Perfect sunset location.

We enjoyed this beautiful sunset on a Thursday evening with food & cocktails! Drinks were amazing! Just a little disappointed that my bill for an order of wings, truffle fries and 2 lemon drop martinis came to $70!!! read more

Patricks Rooftop - Beautiful sunset on a Thursday evening! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Good drinks but the crowd is not it. One time I had my purse stolen from there and not much was done about it. A lot of weird older men there too. Service wasn't very quick but the views are what save this place. read more

Ordered: Strawberry Basil Smash (~$14): Woodford Reserve, lemon juice, simply syrup, strawberries, and basil Guava Cooler (~$12): Stoli vodka, guava nectar, lime juice, simply syrup Cheeseburger (~$17): with lettuce, tomato, onions, special sauce, house pickles, and frites Aya's take: Super cute and hip rooftop! Obviously not as high up as rooftops I'm used to in NYC. Despite this, the ambiance was amazing and the drinks were pretty good. After sitting for a while, we decided to grab food and the Cheeseburger with Frites really hit the spot. It was messy but super tasty! I recommend making a reservation prior to coming since it does get a bit busy. read more

Patrick's is my go-to when I want a good drink with a great view. The rooftop setup is amazing--perfect for sunset hangs or just feeling a little fancy without trying too hard. Cocktails are always on point, and the staff is cool and laid-back. It does get busy, but honestly, it's worth it. Great spot to bring out of towners or just treat yourself. read more

Yesterday I went to Patrick's rooftop for the first time for my friend's birthday. We got there around 4:30 after work. It was a little tough to find because there weren't many signs outside the hotel where it is located. Anyhow, we made our way to the top floor for the rooftop bar. The tables are first come first serve, so we tried to get there shortly after they opened, and it was already getting a little bit crowded. There were indoor and outdoor areas throughout to choose from. We snagged a spot near the overlook of a nice view of downtown. A server came over to take our order which is a nice touch. We started with a round of drinks which we got but didn't get our water until quite a bit a later even though we wanted to start with water. The drinks were pretty tasty but a little bit expensive at around $12 a cocktail. My favorite was the frose! With COVID restrictions we were required to order food. We ordered hummus, carnitas and shrimp cocktail. Honestly the appetizers were awful. The shrimp cocktail was brunt and were only four pieces of little shrimp. I didn't try the carnitas but I waited about a half an hour after my friends got their appetizers to get my hummus. The vegetables served with the hummus were beyond strange and it also came with some burnt baguettes. The appetizers were also served on plastic plates. Which ruined the upscale touch. Service was overall very slow. The other thing I did not like was that the inside was getting very very crowded and the bar did not appear to have any concerns for COVID which was a turn off. Luckily we were outside so we still felt somewhat safe. Overall the cocktails are a bit expensive, and you pay for the wonderful views. I would steer clear of any food and out of the inside as they do not adhere to any social distancing with COVID. I would come back solely for the views and a drink. read more

Shaken not stirred! Here for the weekend and they didn't disappoint this first timer. I did go as aoon as they open because this is a popular place that has mixed reviews, but the menu was inviting. I wasn't expecting much, just some bar food and a few drinks. The lobster sandwich and wings were perfect. Service was great, they checked on us often since we were in the rooftop and others were inside. It's a little loud inside because it's a dj.((expected)).its rooftop season and I enjoyed sitting on the side viewing the lake. I would return of I was a local. Until next time! read more

Tried Patrick's for Sunday brunch. The pics and reviews were overall good but unfortunately aside from the view, my experience was not enjoyable. I got there around 1p and the first drink I ordered was a pineapple jalapeño drink. It was not good at all. It tasted watered down, and I couldn't taste the pineapple or jalapeño. Next we tried to order the bottomless mimosas. It was around 130 and we were told it was too late and wouldn't be worth the cost at that time. The bartender offered to make us a margarita which was really tasty. We were excited for mimosas so we decided to get a glass anyway. I ordered pineapple and my friend ordered peach. The bartender said ok but brought out a pineapple pitcher. We tried to explain that we each just wanted a glass but he seemed overwhelmed so we just took the pitcher. The brut they used was really strong so we had him add more pineapple and cranberry before we were able to actually enjoy the mimosas. As for the food, we were excited to try the waffle flight but they didn't have it so I ended up getting the omelette of the day and my friend got a crepe. Her crepe was cold but palatable. My omelette had feta, spinach and mushrooms and was just ok. I think it could've used a little salt. The potatoes were great! By far the best thing I had there. The ambiance is great and definitely worth going to just for the vibes and views. The outdoor rooftop has a fire pit and cute booths and seating. I think I went in with high expectations but would go back just to hang out with friends. read more

This spot is really hit or miss depending on the day you venture out here. The last time we came here was on a busy Friday. The waitress was non existent and we had to go up to the bar and ask for food and drink menus. Once we figured out what we wanted to order, we ended up just ordering drinks at the bar because our waitress was once again, no where to be seen. This last time we went on a Wednesday night for my birthday. As soon as we stepped off the elevator, we were immediately greeted by the hostess. We weren't able to see if it was busy or not but I asked the hostess if we could sit by the ledge if there was room. There was plenty of room and took us to a great spot. She also advised us that there was only one waitress and if it was okay if we just ordered drinks at the bar if we weren't ordering food. I loved this heads up! Of course, we ordered our drinks at the bar since we had just came from dinner. The view was amazing and the sunset was beautiful! Kudos to the hostess, security and head bartender on the night of July 5! They were top notch! read more

This was a great place to go have a drink and check out the view. It was a great atmosphere, DJ was spinning some nice mixes, people there was very friendly. Bartenders were busy but that was expected. The drinks were your typical upscale prices so not much I can say about that. There was lots places to sit and relax or stand with your friends and take in the view. Over all if your celebrating a fun night with your girls or guys this is the place to check out while in Buffalo. It's was kinda hard to find at first since you have to take two elevators to the top and you have to enter in from the hotel entrance. But once your in you don't want to leave ;) read more

Great views, service and food! Definitely returning! Highly recommended for a wonderful experience!

Our order was incorrect. The Manager, Jason, handled the situation extremely well. He apologized and made sure that the order was corrected. In addition, I observed him in multiple interactions with customers and he was professional and engaging. Great manager! Patrick's is lucky to have him! The food was excellent too! read more

We headed up here for some drinks after stopping at WXYZ bar downstairs first for a drink. We are glad we made our way up here because it was a really cool bar. It was packed on a Saturday night as expected. There is a lot of bar seating as well as plenty of seating outside (although in a Buffalo winter, there weren't too many people outside). We did spend a decent amount of time outside though admiring the view of the city and huddling near the warm heat lamps. There was also a fireplace you could sit around. Very cool atmosphere here. I look forward to coming back when it is warm and we can truly enjoy the patio, but it was beautiful to watch the snow falling from here though. read more

Had reservations, seated late, waited 1/2 hour for waitress to take drink order, waited 1/2 hour for food order. Food was only ok. Hostess then come up while we were still eating and told us that we had to leave because they had other reservations. Then security came up and asked us to leave, again still eating. WTF!!! Asked to see Manager, only removed one round of drinks from bill. Not going there again. read more

The view of the city from here can't be beat! It was absolutely gorgeous at sunset. The drinks were tasty and definitely got our money's worth of booze! We also enjoyed the cheese board, a yummy treat before a full dinner. My favorite part was hands down the view!! read more

We ended up going out on a Monday night, not sure what or who we would find out. We ventured here and from the nice gentlemen worker cleaning that guided us to the rooftop to the Bartenders, everyone was very friendly, knowledgeable about their drinks offered and took great care of every customer. When you walk out of the elevator there is a beautiful scene of the city, the decor is lovely and there is a lot of seating and even decorative fires to sit by. I asked for a fruity drink and it was delicious. Prices are a little high, but there's a nice clientele, beautiful view and friendly people-what more could you ask for! read more

Wife and I went right when it opened (late afternoon) and not during prime time - so no waits or issues. Creative drinks, great views and another fun option when out in the city. I can see how this place can get crowded easily as it filled up quickly around happy hour time. Be sure to take the 3rd elevator and hit the rooftop button. read more

What a fun spot downtown! I'd never been to a rooftop bar until coming to Patrick's and I was pretty impressed! We were out as a group celebrating a friend's birthday, got there early-ish in the night (around 9:30 or so), so we didn't have to wait to get in. My biggest piece of advice is to go earlier, otherwise you'll wait in a long line and risk being turned down! The view was incredible. I will say that it's basically what you're paying for. Drinks are on the pricey side for sure, obviously because you're mostly paying to feel fancy on the roof of a hotel in Buffalo! That feeling has no price so I didn't mind paying a little more for a drink. Sad I only heard about this place later in the summer, since colder times are upon us. I'm sure it'll be back and better than ever next year! read more

Had reservations and got seated pretty quick, but never had someone come by to wait on us. We sat there as we kept seeing people that work there just walk by. Ended up just going to bar to order which took a while with 2 bartenders and everyone ordering around the bar. Drinks were pretty good and views nice at sunset, but if you're expecting anything more probably not the best place to go. read more

This is place has an absolute great atmosphere and as the sun set across the city, you get an indescribable view. The food was pretty good and long with the drinks. We got there before 8 so all the cocktails were half price which was a great steal. My favorite drink has to be the skinny senorita if you are looking for a cute, sweet drink read more

We booked a reservation based on the view and the view did not disappoint. The service and food was a bummer. We waited for over 15 minutes to be recognized. In spite of twice clarifying we wanted gin/soda/lime she brought us lemon drops. We ordered buffalo wings as we were starving after flying all day long. So gross we barely touched them. We found a better place down the street and left. Go for the view and order water. read more

I actually have not been here yet as I have been unable to get anyone to return my many calls, emails and reservation requests for 4 days. Today I am told that nobody will be available now for 2 more days because they are closed on Monday and Tuesday. I was told to make a reservation online, however, because we are a party of 9 I had to fill out an email request which was ignored - twice. Today I called one last time and was transferred to the managers voice mail. Surprise...(not really). That voice mail is full and cannot accept any more messages. So long Patrick's! We will take our business elsewhere. read more

Great music and view. The drinks are good, some of them can be a little sweet but I love the variety. The bar tenders are super friendly. However, I wish they would have a better way of waiting food. I was sitting by the balcony and had to wait at the bar for the fries instead of with the group of people I was with. I recommend this bar always! read more

Went here for the first time last night and can say the drinks were good and the music choices was hitting!! The only downside I had was the service. My boyfriend had a tab open and our server was Stephen(name on receipt). We stayed for 2 drinks because of the service we received. He was standing at the bar waiting to get the second round of drinks, but Stephen was taking care of those who came after him. When he was told from other customers that my boyfriend has been waiting, his response was well they(those he took care of) were here first, which was a lie. After 10 minutes, I go to the bar and sit next to him and he finally was able to order drinks then Stephen asked what I would like to drink, I guess he didn't think I was with him? We closed out the tab, I tipped of course, but am sad that this happened. I really wanted to let my friends and family know to come here since it's a rooftop bar overseeing buffalo but kinda is iffy with this experience. read more

We made reservations here last Saturday. It was a friends birthday and we all got Covid tested excited for a night together. We showed up after getting an email confirmation from the manager and a text for us to confirm yesterday, which we did. We show up to find out they are closed indefinitely. No warning, no phone, call nothing. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. read more

Tons of entitled white women who refuse to wear masks! These troglodytes were throwing a 30th birthday for their other troglodyte friend, and they wouldn't stop screaming for no reason. They just would not wear their mask when they moved around the place, and none of the employees did anything! I get that you can't keep checking on everyone, but like cmon it was a hoard of these awful people, you should be able to say something about them. Also the food was fine but the drinks were kinda butt cheeks for 13 dollars per. Wanted way more fries for the price. Save your money and just Doordash something, it'll be probably cheaper and definitely safer for both your health and your ears. Seriously those women need to grow up, how the heck do you get to 30 years old and not have the cognitive ability to go "hey maybe screaming loudly isn't that great for the other patrons of the bar". Stay clear of this place AND white women! read more

500 Pearl Love love love the view! Went here for Sunday brunch was really good! You have to have a reservation for brunch no walk ins. Not a huge food menu to choose from, but what I had to eat was really good. This place is hard to find it's inside of a hotel/loft building which has more than one restaurant/lounge/bar inside. Once you find the elevator it has a button for rooftop and it takes you right where you want to be. read more

On a Friday night out, after dinner me and cousin stopped for for some drinks and music, experience night life in Buffalo. The patio was limited because it was cold, so everyone was inside. We still could sit outside and check the view out! The DJ was playing some great mixes, overall was lit night! We got shots but they were very concentrated, therefore more green tea than alcohol and comparatively pricey, but not bad! read more

So, when the doors are closed it can be a bit tight, in the summer- lots more room! The drinks are very reasonably priced...but for some reason the wine seemed a bit pricey. Overall, great place to come after a show, relax and enjoy the view with a bit of style! read more

I have been here twice now and cannot get enough of the views. They are very new and I believe have only been open for roughly 2 weeks or so. Everyone is very friendly, and they have a decent amount of drink choices. I had one of their cocktails and it was absolutely delicious. Yes the price is a little steep, but thats expected for a roof top bar - so nothing too crazy. I do wish they had some more beer choices, but overall this place is very relaxing and an enjoyable place to go. The views are amazing, there is tons of seating, and I look forward to coming back again soon. read more

I was extremely disappointed with my visit here. The location is amazing, the views are incredible, and the potential is there. Shortly after being seated, our waitress brought us some menus and said she'd return shortly. About 20 or so minutes passed and she did finally took our drink orders. We returned with our drinks but then walked away. Never asked if we were getting food. That was the last we saw of her. I eventually asked the bar tender if we would order food. He replied that he would have a waitress over to our table momentarily. Said waitress never came and after being there for about an hour and a half, we left. read more
