Campfire Grill continues to be my favorite breakfast spot in Buffalo!…read more I walked in on Labor Day 2026 around 8:30am and the hostess said I could pick anywhere to sit as it wasn't very busy, so, I grabbed a stool at the bar so I could watch the magic in the kitchen. A waitress came over with a menu and took my drink order, an easy order - coffee. They gave me plenty of time to decide what I wanted. When I remember my last visit, the customer service was a little lacking but this time, everyone I interacted was incredibly pleasant and very nice! About 10-15 minutes later, my breakfast was brought over with a variety of syrups. For breakfast I went with an old favorite, "Hill" size (three) Cinnamon Roll Homemade Hot Cakes with whipped cream on top! They were nicely sized and made to perfection. I LOVE these pancakes so much that I scarf them down in what feels like two minutes, so I put A LOT of effort into pacing myself and enjoying, savoring them this time. I've been coming here for eight years now and I will say, the prices have gone up but it's not prohibitive and once in a while, you just have to treat yourself. Buffalo has several great breakfast spots and Campfire Grill is certainly one of them. I can not wait to come back for another plate of hot cakes or their crunchy French toast!

I'm beginning to feel like a regular here at Campfire Grill. I brought my brother with me after a…read moretrip to a nearby surgical center. There's something about medical appointments and going out to breakfast that is ingrained in my DNA. This was his first visit. He had no trouble finding enough breakfast items to build a custom carnivore plate with Polish sausage and eggs. I made sure to order the griddle logs with strawberries and whipped cream, after I ate a full plate of breakfast, of course. We were well taken care of by our waitress, who kept our coffees filled. Campfire Grill has a cozy diner feel to it. I'm always looking forward to my next visit.

Had time to kill, because my daughter had a nearby appointment. It was 3PM on a Friday…read more So I thought I would grab a cup of coffee at a diner. Googled diners, and Andy's showed up. [I did not see it in Yelp for some reason]. I called to see if they were open, and I was told yes. Hard to find, no real signage, and in a simple municipal building. Confusing entrance. I was sure it was a mistake. Only a few cars in the parking lot. Hard to believe there is a spotlessly clean, {nice} diner in there. Walked in, made a hard right, saw a large out-of-place crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, and thought I bet this will be good. It was! Sat at the counter in front. Waited for service, nice guy who's name I didn't catch. Nice menu. I ordered a Western Omelette, my go-to at a new diner), $14.95 and surprisingly didn't include hash browns or home fries [$1.50 more], cutting down on carbs so I didn't get them. Conclusion, great HOT omelette! Worth the money [owner is the chef/cook]. I will come back. Like the crystal chandelier, a newly discovered gem. You have to check it out!

So, we decided to check out this diner. No signs near the road or even an address number. Well we…read morefound the place by eliminating the buildings around it. Finally saw the big sign that said 'Andy's is Open'. Success! Or so we thought. We parked & went up to the door & saw the 2nd sign. This one saying they're closed for the month. Hummm, guess we'll have to come back next month, now that we know where they're located. Hopefully the food will be worth the effort. 2025- 10

We had a small work dinner here with a virtual presentation, and honestly, this was a pretty…read moreperfect setup. We had a nice little room toward the back that gave us some privacy, and the media/audio worked seamlessly, which, when you're trying to do a presentation over dinner, is basically a miracle. Our server was attentive and took great care of us all night. My gripes? The $4 bread service fee. We ordered plenty of appetizers and absolutely did not need the bread. And $16 for a house or Caesar salad? Definitely overpriced. My salad consisted of grape tomatoes, shredded carrots, a few chickpeas and some shredded Parmesan. For $16, I expected a whole lot more, it was nowhere near worth the price. Now, onto the good... There were so many pizzas that sounded good that making a decision was harder than it needed to be. We decided on the Michael as a group. Those caramelized onions brought SO much flavor. We also tried the prosciutto and melon special, which was a huge hit with one of our gluten-free guests. The zucchini fries were perfectly crispy, and the dipping sauce had just the right little kick. I could have kept eating those. Then came the filet mignon, which my partner and I basically inhaled. It came with roasted crispy red potatoes and a mix of green and red peppers, and everything was seasoned really well. One of the guests said the duck breast was absolutely delicious. I couldn't find the dessert menu online beforehand, which was a little disappointing because I like to mentally prepare for dessert. I ended up going with the brookie because cookies + brownies = obviously the correct answer. I skipped the chocolate and caramel sauces and swapped vanilla ice cream with pistachio gelato. Yum!! I also grabbed my daughter the seasonal cheesecake with the mixed berry topping, and she inhaled it when I got home. Overall, this was a fantastic spot for a work dinner. Great food, attentive service, a comfortable private space, and the presentation went off without a hitch. Aside from my $4 bread fee and overpriced salads, I have very little to complain about.

There are 657 Cracker Barrel Old Country Stores operating across the United States. I visited one…read moreof them today. Why? These were unusual circumstances. I had some time between appointments and needed coffee and a bite to eat. Plus, I always wanted to check this place out. Now, I'm still debating with myself. Why would I say anything bad about this restaurant? Hello! It's a Cracker Barrel Old Country Store :). What did I expect? I even knew the coffee would be bad, but the price was a real shocker. The last time I had coffee like that, it cost maybe two dollars, no more, and that included refills. I never eat breakfast out. Never, unless I'm traveling. I ordered an Egg Sandwich, two farm fresh eggs served on seared sourdough bread with tomato slices and no mayo. It comes with one classic side. I chose Hashbrown Casserole. The eggs were delicious. The bread wasn't anything close to a 'real' sourdough, but it was actually seared with flavorful butter, and I enjoyed it. The tomato wasn't the best, but salt and pepper came to the rescue. I appreciated that everything was under-seasoned. It's much easier just to add more salt and pepper. It was a very basic type of food. My partner got a little bit wilder with his choices. How about Grandpa's Country Fried Breakfast :). Two eggs and country fried steak with sawmill gravy, served with biscuits and more sawmill gravy and one classic side. He chose Hashbrown Casserole as well. Do you know what sawmill gravy is? "Sawmill gravy is a hearty Southern white gravy made by creating a roux from pork sausage or bacon drippings and flour, then whisking in milk. The Origins: the name 'sawmill gravy' dates back to 19th-century logging and sawmill camps. Cooks needed to provide an inexpensive, calorie-dense breakfast for laborers". At first, we criticized the gravy thinking it was a skimpy white sausage gravy. We had no idea sawmill gravy is something different. Now we know. Our server was good. The dining rooms were heavily decorated. The choice of music was just like at the Cabela's store. All in all, two breakfasts (including a simple egg sandwich) and bad coffee for a total of 40 dollars with tip was definitely not worth it for me. I've heard their pancakes are the best, but pancakes are not really my thing. I'll never forget the blueberry pancakes that my Yelp Friend Dan B. shared a photo of a while back :). They looked sumptuous. There were a decent number of customers, so this place is a popular spot. I didn't care about the store, either.

Fast forward to present day, I still love the concept of the store with the restaurant connected in one spot. But I do remember the food being a little bit better. Now it has been awhile since I was last here. But we went this week in hopes that it was still as good as we remembered. I was a little disappointed. We had a water spill on the table. There were no napkins anywhere and we waited awhile before a server was able to bring some over. Not a big deal but like...why can't we have napkins on the table? The food was fine. The chicken and dumplings were the star of the show here. Always have been. The steak was a bold choice but I wanted to see how it turned out. Ordered it medium, came to the table well done. It had a good seasoning and the shrimp were good but definitely not how you want a steak. To be honest, the best part of the visit was the store. Everyone found something in there that they liked and we even ended up bringing home a peg game too. The vibe here feels good but the food and service were a little lacking. Definitely felt like we might be back just for the shop in the future.

This place is exactly what you would expect for a brewery restaurant. They have a beautiful view of…read morethe creek, lots of windows letting in the sunshine, I really like this location for outdoor seating as well. The hostess was a class act, server was great and checked in regularly. The food is good, everything is priced about what I expected except the coffee. They only offer French Pressed coffee for $10 (I was able to have 2.25 cups of coffee). I paid $15 for coffee last time I went so that my friend could have one cup and I had three. Lol I do like the creamer, it was creamy thick, complimented the coffee well. I just couldn't believe I paid that for coffee. Normally, I would only drink 2 cups but drank 3 because I couldn't let it go to waste. Don't judge me, this was for brunch at 11am. Lol I recommend sharing plates. Not because the portion sizes are large or anything but just because everything tastes great, why not sample as much as possible. My friends and I tried a pizza, the AMAZING Mac and Cheese, and another time, I tried the cinnamon roll and eggplant sandwich. The bread was amazing, flavor was good but needed more eggplant. It felt like I was eating more bread than anything hearty inside it. Probably wouldn't order that again next time but it was still good. Their seasoned fries are also very good. The frosting on the cinnamon roll made this treat worth getting, it was a little hard/dry on the outside but I imagine that was just a mistake for that day as maybe it could have came to the table sooner. It was still reallyyyy delicious. I'll be returning again to try some other items but definitely come and bring a date. This is a nice spot for brunch, lunch and dinner, with adult family, friends or a date.
