    Harvest Host over night at the Rusty Nickel Brewery in West Seneca NY. Really enjoyed their Tropical Vapor Rocket IPA!! Rusty Nickel Brewing Co is a proud NYS Farm Brewery, crafting locally sourced beer and cider since it opened in 2015. The brewery has been awarded for several of its staple beers and has won multiple awards for each of their unique bloody marys. The Tasting Room provides a very comfortable, cabin-in-the-woods feel, with views of the brewery. The full bar features NYS spirits, wine, mead, and cider. Coined by many as a 'hidden gem', Rusty Nickel is nestled in the picturesque, wooded landscape of West Seneca, NY. The brewery's expansive outdoor space boasts one of WNY's most beautiful biergartens, a heated patio, and the perfect place to host any event. This family-friendly brewery with a focus on supporting local is a great place for great food and beverage while offering games, a fire pit to hang and make s'mores, and dozens of fun events year round.

    Keep in mind that the Rusty Nickel is a very rustic facility. If you like nature, this place is for you. In fact, a deer was grazing on the hill not 30 feet away from our table. The food menu is very limited but the beer was tasty. We had a reservation but couldn't find any staff members when we arrived so we just seated ourselves.

    Stopped by when we were traveling around Buffalo. Great staff. Super friendly and helpful when selecting beer. Definitely will be back when traveling through Buffalo again.

    Teddy and Joe, just a couple of fun guys serving beer.

    This was our first visit to Rusty Nickel Brewing Company and definitely won't be our last. The vibe is very relaxed and welcoming. The beer menu is quite diverse with multiple offerings in each category. The beer was very good and well brewed. There were three bartenders working and we received excellent service. We were able to taste a small sample of the beer before ordering a full pint. I loved The Half Slice Orange Vanilla, which tasted like a creamsicle. My husband's favorite was the I Remember, Buffalo. It was a great experience and a fun afternoon.

    Three of us stopped here after lunch at the Ebenezer Ale House. I was in the mood for something dessert-y/after dinner drink-ish, so I went with the Cafe Mocha Latte Nitro. I'm no beer expert, but I do love coffee and chocolate, so I did enjoy this. I like the creaminess of a nitro, and it also seems to bring out more sweetness. Their website claims "something for every taste", and that's true: beer (draft, bottles, cans), wine, cocktails, seltzers, ciders, mead. If you can't find a beverage that suits your fancy, that's on you. The atmosphere inside and out is fun and funky. The best part of our visit was sitting outside on a beautiful fall day, just relaxing and sipping a cold one.

    Nice place! Great outdoor patio and back yard area, also offered board games and outdoor games. Food menu was small but great pricing for what you get! Good drink menu as well. Got a charcuterie board for $12 and was impressed with all the food on the board!

    Cute patio

    Awesome beer and major vibes! Loved the seasonal decor on the patio and the hazy ipa was so bomb!

    Partial flight including cream ale, mead, and a stout

    Stopped here after visiting Niagara Falls. They have a nice selection of brews, and heated/covered outdoor space. No food available, but a restaurant next door

    I was so happy to stop by today and see Ted behind the bar. A Buffalo legend! So, obviously the service was the best in wny! There is a great selection of varieties of beers on tap, and with our group of 10, we tried a lot of them. I had the seltzer and the orange cream ale. Both are fantastic! Love the beer garden out back. There is a coy pond, gorgeous flowers, tons of patio furniture, and I'm told it is dog friendly too. Cheers!

    Lazy day stop for a few cold ones and some grub courtesy of Yankee bbq. Had a chance to try the bomb pop inspired blue raspberry, cherry, lime sour and a great session IPA. We were welcomed immediately by staff, she helped to decide on our beer choices with friendly input from who I assumed to be a regular at the bar. Since it was a bit small inside we opted to go outdoors. The space was very nice! It was raining this day but the covered patio was spacious and dry! We lucked out to have the Yankee Bbq food truck on-site. Loganberry glazed pool burnt ends and brisket nachos really made the visit complete.

    A dear friend drove to Buffalo from NYC to volunteer at an event and after a long day volunteering,…read morethey were looking for a hearty meal and some good drink. Seeing as I'm a Yelp-er, they wanted me to find a spot I hadn't been to yet, even though I had eaten dinner already on my own. I had The Ridge West Seneca saved in my "Places to Try" collection so I said let's go. Overall, I cannot wait to go back and grab a meal here and try the food for myself! We arrive just before 8pm on a Saturday night to a large gravel parking lot that was pretty busy, but we still found a spot pretty easily. We walked in and the hostess was able to seat the two of us at a booth right away! Inside it was very spacious with plenty of TVs going, a bar on one side, music playing overhead. Indoor noise was elevated (it's a restaurant that has a bar, it's going to not be quiet haha) but the two of us could carry on a conversation fairly normally. Our waitress came over immediately to let us know she'd be a few minutes as there were a few other tables she was handling. Fine by us as that allowed my buddy ample time to look over the menu and figure out what he wanted. I saw the St. Patrick's Day-themed cocktail specials menu so I knew what I was ordering. Our waitress though - Absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, had great personality, and was really accommodating in splitting the check (I took care of all our drinks, my friend took care of his dinner). Our waitress did a great job checking in on us at the perfect time, we never felt pressured, rushed. I didn't order any food but my friend ordered their Steakhouse Strip off the "Large Plates" section of the menu, and boy oh boy, did that look amazing! The 12-ounce strip was cooked to a picture-perfect medium-rare with plenty of tobacco onions on top and around the plate, and served over a generous bed of mashed potatoes and asparagus, served with a small cup of their A1 aioli. After seeing that, I certainly want to come back and order food. My friend really enjoyed their meal, the plate was clean! As for me, I ordered two St. Patrick's Day -themed cocktails: "Sham Rocked Shake" and "Irish Good Bye". The "Sham Rocked Shake" was vanilla vodka, crème de menthe, cream, and chocolate syrup and curls - This was creamy, delicious, not overly minty. The "Irish Good Bye" was Three Chord bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and lemon juice with a lime wedge - There was so much flavor in this cocktail, the lemon juice added a pleasant fruity 'punch'. Looking at the prices for these cocktails, I felt they were in-line with most other places and they were made well so no complaints from me. The Ridge West Seneca really surprised me! I've driven past it a few times and wondered how good it was. From our friendly waitress and service, the delicious cocktails, to the fantastic-looking food, I am impressed. I'm looking forward to coming back soon for another night of drinks and to try some food!

    Went here for Mothers Day brunch. There were 12 of us so we sat at a long hightop table in the bar…read morearea. Have been here several times before and this was the first time seated in the bar. The bar area is not as loud as the back room but still loud. Our server was attentive and there was too much food to take any pics. We started with coffee and cocktails followed with nachos and tots. I had coffee a mule some of the appetizers followed by the fried green tomato blt. There were also 2 different pizza's a burger, waffles, stuffed French toast, vegetable frittata, chicken and waffles, sou & salads and so much more. Most of the food was good, a few said it was just ok. If I come back I would definitely sit in the bar area or outside. The parking lot is very large so I've always been able to find a space. They also had to put a deposit to hold the reservation , I'm only to assume it was because it was a holiday.

I'm also told they're partnering with revived hot dog brand Mister Sizzle to boost their food offerings in the near future. Not a whole lot to say, but they aren't trying to be much more. Not much of a nightlife in the outer exurbs of Buffalo, but this charming little brewpub certainly more than compensates for that.

Cool outdoor patio but if it's a hot day, the indoor space just doesn't provide comfort. I want to be on board with everyone else about this place, but I didn't like a single beer in the flight that I ordered & some aspects made me uncomfortable. It is definitely a local pub, with the 10 people that were already there. Everybody was watching when we came in, which, if you've ever experienced this you know it's uncomfortable and makes you feel like an outsider. The owner was nice, but he definitely was buzzed when he was trying to have conversations with us. This is just not a place. I would feel comfortable coming back to. The bartender was amazing though. She was super fun and friendly and made the whole experience worth going there.

They have an option for customers to pick a type of first line workers (nurse, police officer, etc.) and they can buy a drink for them that can be redeemed on their first visit. There is a tally board with the types of occupations and how many drinks are available to redeem when you first walk in. We are nurses so we each had a free drink! The beer was great! My favorite was the Flyin' Hawaiian which is a Swedish fish sour. Anywhere that offers flights has an amazing beer rating from me! The option of trying multiple drinks lets me figure out my favorite from the place and allows me to try ones that I do not want a full glass of. The food was delicious as well! Definitely smaller portions for the price, but the burger was properly cooked and seasoned. The fries were fresh and hot. To start we had jumbo stuffed tater kegs which were 10/10. They didn't give you many, but they were delicious. Definitely would come again!
