Hadn't been to The Delaware in quite some time. The patio had been enlarged, which was a pleasant surprise on the cool afternoon that we visited for lunch. Our wait staff was perfectly attentive, the nicest ladies ever, and of course helpful with our menu choices. The menu still has something for everyone, and the food is always delicious, comforting, and well-priced. As usual, I had leftovers for lunch the following day. read more

Absolutely loved this place I had to go twice in a week! I tried the Delaware Cajun wings the first time and it was amazing. Second time around, I got more appetizers along with a salad. Super pleased with everything and the service was great. Thank you! I will be coming back for more read more

Upon arrival I was pleasantly surprised. Upscale but down to earth hard working men eating their lunch while on break. The restaurant was inviting, comfortable and friendly. The presentation of the food was lovely. Both woman I dined with were pleased with their food. I however was disappointed with the lack of flavor with my chicken pita. I almost never reach for "salt or pepper," but not the case today. Hopefully it was a one time "off" on taste. read more

My first time here and it was an interesting experience. The atmosphere is part sports bar, part high-end restaurant. I was surprised to see the booth seats were all cracked and peeling. I was grateful to be in sturdy jeans rather than linen pants or a delicate skirt that could have been snagged on the broken fabric. Eddie, our server, was friendly and offered recommendations when we couldn't decide. Sadly, he was the only server working on a Sunday night and while the restaurant wasn't packed, it was busy enough that we waited longer than we should have for our food and our payment to be processed. I ordered the truffle fries which was the best decision of the evening. The malt vinegar aioli was an interesting accompaniment. I also ordered the gouda bacon burger. The brioche bun was fluffy and buttery, the burger (which I was not asked my cooking preference, med, well, etc) had a crispy char on the outside and was nicely pink throughout. I specifically asked for no chips, because if I was eating truffle fries, I was not eating homemade chips and I didn't want them going to waste. I did get 3 pickle spears instead, so the rest of the plate didn't look bare. My friend ordered the Walnut Brussel Sprouts and Pumpkin Risotto. The sprouts were undercooked and the risotto was cold and overcooked. The food options were pleasantly varied and I would have loved the opportunity to try dessert (I love creme brulée) but perhaps going another day when there are more staff. Sorry all, no pictures this time. read more

Food was excellent, came out quickly and seemed appropriately priced. Service was impeccable, professional, kept checking on us, including the manager to make sure we were enjoying everything. The ambiance is nice, clean, not too loud, just slightly chilly since we were near the front door, but that is literally my only criticism. Wonderful place! read more

Food was not fit to eat. We were overbilled . Staff was so busy they were short with us. Atmosphere wasn't bad. Not going back.

Service was good, food was good. Nice location and set-up of a restaurant. Prices a bit high for the portions. Highly would suggest that more restaurants remember what most people want from a local restaurant. Good food, at a reasonable price. Again, we enjoyed our dinners. Will we be back? Maybe. Prices are high for limited choices for a "pub and grill." read more

Everything was great, food,service by Ed was very enjoyable. We'll definitely be coming back.

Haven't eaten here in a long time but we do come for the Tom and Jerry's in the winter! It's a great stop on the trail. The bartenders are so nice and explain their detailed process which is amazing during the holiday time! read more

The Delaware Pub & Grill - Tom and Jerry season! - Bars Near Me - Kenmore, New York

We had a 5:30 reservation. We were seated promptly. It took 25 minutes for a waitress to come and take our drink order. Once she got there and we placed our drink order we asked to order our food as well. We had tickets for Shea's at 7:30. Our food was good. I had the Pasta Armando with chicken. The pasta was very good but the chicken was burnt. My friend had the chicken bomber and she said that was good as well. The service was very slow, especially when we told our waitress we had tickets for a show. Other customers who came in after us were served long before we were. Disappointed with the service but the food was fairly good. read more

Great service, the bartender Jerry is great, engaging and friendly. Makes great drinks, going back for another Tom &Jerry - to cap off the holiday season. read more

Sat down at 6, ordered at 6:15. Dinner served at 730. Restaurant had roughly 20 people. Ordered the Mahi. Tasted like it was microwaved

Offering freshly prepared, classic American cuisine. The staff is exceptional and committed to delivering top notch service, ensuring guest feel valued and well attended to. When seeking menu recommendations, the attentive and knowledgeable staff is always prepared to assist. On a recent visit we indulged in fantastic cocktails and dined on asparagus fries, tot poutine, and banana pepper dip. Every dish was delightfully made with fresh ingredients. The menu offered something for everyone's taste. A welcoming locale to indulge in appetizers and beverages, showcasing exceptional service, a relaxed ambiance, and a notably upscale yet casual vibe. read more

The Delaware Pub & Grill - Asparagus Fries, Stuffed Poblano Peppers, Banana Pepper Dip, and Tot Poutine - Bars Near Me - Kenmore, New York

Open while under renovation, very ample bar menu and the food menu offered a great variety of. My fiancé ordered the meatloaf and I had a grilled burger with ghost pepper cheese, spicy without being overwhelming. Traded up for sweet potato fries with honey butter, outstanding. Price was comparable with other establishments. Will definitely return read more

There is a nice atmosphere at this restaurant with a great upstairs area... no elevator, though They have a full bar and many wines... no free refills on soda pop... one glass of soda is $3.95 We ordered lots of different items and it took a looong time for our party of five to get out food...40 minutes after we ordered... Here's the life down on the food... menu is totally a la carte... sides are a minimum of $5.00 The food was very tasty! Everybody enjoyed their meal and had enough to take some home... the Delaware Cajun wings were good, not overly hot, and not very saucy... the Monte Cristo was a generous sized Faneuil and tasted just as y you would expect slightly sweet and dairy... the burgers were cooked just as ordered one pink, the other well dine and were juicy and flavorful... the side of Mashed potatoes was good, but the real show stopper at our table was the caramel set cries.... set patio waffle fries with a little dish of caramel sauce... yummmerific!!! I think this place is pricey and the service was not a attentive as it could be, but overall a decent place to eat read more

It was just ok for the price .. expected more like when i moved here 2 yrs ago! They stopped serving this summer and for $22 i got fish .. some rather hard coated fries and seriously the smallest thimble of coleslaw.. tiny little ! Very disappointed since others serve large sides with large fish and good fries uncoated and a choice of several different good portion sides . read more

Food delish. Lovely place. Service was poor. Two waitresses but they seemed to hide in the back corner.

I went there for dinner and had a huge burger !! It was soon good!! Perfectly cooked and juicy.

The atmosphere is one of the nicer, trendier ones we've been at within Kenmore. It's well lit outside with patio and has a parking lot. Interior has a large centered bar surrounded by a nice mix of tables and high backed fancier booths. There were a couple small private areas and an upstairs floor. Should have come on a Saturday or Monday for karaoke or live music. We started with tot poutine and deep fried asparagus for appetizers. While the tots were delicious, we all wished they were crispier as they all fell apart when you tried to eat them with your fork. The asparagus was a unique option and came with a couple dipping sauces. For the main course we went with an asiago Ceasar salad, Nashville Chicken Sandwich, Meatloaf wrapped in bacon with mashed potatoes and snap peas, Mac & Cheese, a side of parm risotto, and a side of spaetzle (which was a special tonight). The salad was loaded with cheese and dressing with large crunchy croutons. Mac and Cheese was way too rich as a single meal....glad we did family style. Parm risotto was a favorite. No time for dessert as we had to get kids to dance. But, didn't even see dessert options on the menu. So, unsure if it is offered. read more

I grew up in this neighborhood as a child, this restaurant used to be a carvel ice cream shop which kinda brought me back. We were looking for somewhere to have a drink and some app's. We entered the bar area to be greeted very cheerfully by Jamie our bartender. What an amazing personality, she was helpful with every question we had. We had a couple of Mules and some pretzel bites. Amy the other bartender also checked in on us a few times. We were very impressed with the decor and location. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Jamie for being an amazing bartender! You have an amazing employee! read more

My friend and I came here just to check out a spot we have not been to, and this place did not disappoint! We walked into live music. He was playing some good tunes, so we decided to sit at the bar. Jaimie was our bartender, and she was AWESOME!!! We started with the banana pepper dip and a French onion soup. The banana pepper dip had a good flavor but wasn't super spicy. The French onion soup was piping hot and had great flavor. For our meal, I got the pork chop, which came with mashed potatoes and snap peas (seasonal veggie). My friend got the garlic steak tips, which came over a bead of noodles, some spinach and cream sauce. I highly recommend asking what comes with the entree as the menu does not fully disclose everything. The pork chop was awesome. Great flavor, very juicy, didn't need a steak knife to cut it. The glaze flavored the mashed potatoes perfectly. The snap peas were well made. The garlic steak tips are very garlicky. Jaimie did tell us you have to love garlic to get this, and she was right. Overall, we enjoyed every bit of our food. We didn't have any room for dessert, but Jaimie made us a lovely espresso martini to end our experience. I'm not a vodka person, so she made mine with tequila, and it was THE BEST MARTINI I HAVE EVER HAD! Great restaurant, great service, chill vibe, very casual. They have booths that can be very romantic. It's an all-around great place that I highly suggest going to. read more

We came here for drinks and appetizers on a weeknight. There was live music, but the singer had no light on her. She was in absolute darkness, which was really disturbing. The bar had very bright lights, but the rest of the place was dark. This place has a weird vibe. We had to get our own silverware and napkins for our apps. Not planning on returning any time soon. read more

I'm still just perplexed by the pricing here. It's kind of outrageous to me- $5 for French fries? So you want a burger and fries you will pay over $20. The Mac and cheese is almost $20 alone it better be the best Mac and cheese ever- didn't try it. I can't wrap my head around it. The service is always good though. And the food is good. Just over priced. read more

We came in for a bite in between lunch and dinner and were very pleased. The risotto and gouda mac and cheese were fantastic, sweet potato fries phenomenal and even the tomato soup was good, and I am picky about a good tomato soup. The pub burger was served fresh right off the grill on a pretzel bun... uh, yum????! Unfortunately for us, Happy Hour is only on weekdays, but the servings were reasonably priced for their sizes. Would definitely come back! read more

This is a rustic bar restaurant with a simple menu. Food was OK. nothing to complain about, but nothing to rave about either. The food came out hot. The waitress was not the best. She never returned until we were ready for bill. Their menu doesn't cater to alternate diets AT ALL. read more

We dined in. The setting was nice and service was good. They had a nice menu. We ordered cocktails, my cocktail sounded exciting and had edible glitter in it, but it was really nothing special in regards to taste. We had the artichoke and asiago fritters as an app, which didn't really have any flavor, but the dipping sauce was good. For dinner I had a grain bowl which had lots of good items in it, but also didn't have much flavor, even after I asked for a different sauce. No, I didn't have Covid-19! I had plenty of leftovers which I warmed up at home and seasoned to my liking, which was then very yummy! The food ideas were good, they just need to figure out how to give it flavor!!! We need flavor!!! The fries with dip were good. read more

Tonight was my first time back at a The Delaware in maybe a year. This used to be one of my favorite restaurants but sadly I was left very disappointed this time around. We came for dinner on a Saturday and were promptly seated in the patio. My husband and I started off with the asparagus fries which were always our favorite, veal meatballs and French onion soup. The French onion soup was insanely salty and the asparagus fries had way too much batter, although the dipping sauces were tasty. The veal meatballs were okay, nothing too special. My husband got a cocktail and I a simple pop which was flat. For my entree I got the turkey melt. Their turkey sandwich used to be my go to, but the turkey melt was just awful. The bread was burned, and for some reason the turkey itself was grilled? It was so odd. Sadly this was a simple sandwich for $16. The dish also came with a side of pasta salad although this wasn't mentioned on the menu nor was I offered another option by the server so I didn't end up eating it. I really miss the house made chips and dip which I always used to pair with my entree but I didn't see it on the menu anymore. The fact that it came with a mass-produced tasting pasta salad was so disappointing. Unfortunately every dish and even the pop was a disappointment and not like The Delaware I remember. Sadly I don't think I will return. read more

After all of these years of driving by I finally stopped for dinner. The atmosphere was great and the staff was very attentive. I wasn't looking for anything heavy and decided to go with the chicken wings which turned out to be cooked just right. The flavor was excellent and the texture was great. My test of a restaurant is if they can make an old drink called a sidecar. They were right on the money and I didn't have to explain how to make it. I will be back to try more items on the menu very soon. read more

I came here with a friend recently and we had a good time. I arrived a little bit before her and was sat immediately. For my drink, I ordered sangria, which came in a delightful mason jar. Unfortunately, it was super pulpy and I was unable to get much liquid out of the straw. I asked our waiter if I could get something else, but he was actually able to fix the issue by remaking my drink with no pulp at all. I was glad to be able to enjoy my sangria. I was delighted to see that they had rice bowls. Being a gluten free individual, I'm always happy to see that sort of thing on a menu outside of an Asian fusion restaurant. You got to choose your protein and a sauce. I ended up going for a bacon sauce with steak because, if I'm remembering this correctly, it was the same price as the chicken. Unfortunately, there was a miscommunication and my meal came with chicken instead. I told the waiter, who had heard me say chicken, and he immediately got my new entree started in the kitchen. It didn't take too long before I had food in front of me again, and it was soooo good. My friend loved what she got too, so I was pretty happy. It was mostly a healthy meal too, apart from the sauce. The waiter even said he gave me the price for the chicken at the end of the meal. I know it cost the same, but he didn't, so it was still nice of him. The only problem I have with this restaurant is that the prices are high. It was $60 for two people without tip. I know we ordered alcohol, but wow. I do suggest it here for special occasions, but maybe not for girls night in the future. read more

Second time here and it was excellent! Fantastic service by our server Christine and delicious food. We were celebrating our birthdays (hubby and I share same bday week) and we will be back again. The wings are the best I've had in forever!!! So good. Hands down better than any of the usual wing places in this area. And, that's saying something for sure being in Buffalo New York. The fried calamari, again, the absolute best I've had anywhere in this area and serving it with the tomato cream sauce was absolutely perfect. Steak was cooked perfectly and the meatloaf so tender and not dry at all - it was wrapped in bacon - YUM. The pork was good but not great. Was slightly overdone but still tasty. My brother had the peanut butter bread pudding for dessert and it was lacking a strong peanut butter taste - he would have like more of that flavor. I'll be back for sure - this is a great spot and they were able to seat us in an off the beaten path area for my Dad who's hard of hearing. The interior is cozy and the bar area has a TV for sports. There's outside seating during the warmer months with a good sized parking lot. Get the wings and calamari !! I want to try the tomato soup with the grilled cheese points next. read more

I will start out by saying I have been here several times but more frequently in the past 2 weeks. The deviled eggs are a total must. It tastes like my homemade ones. 4 per order. I would not plate them on the sprouts, as that is not appealing. Try lettuce instead. Next, my smoke wedge salad. It is delicious and everything a wedge salad should be. My sister ordered the apple gorgonzola flat bread. It was supposed to have caramelized onions. They were literally raw. The Flatbread was also burnt along the edges. Service: I have to say it is subpar. The last 2 times, I had the same server. She NEVER asked how our food was (usually a few minutes after you are served-waitressing 101) or if we needed anything. The restaurant itself is very nice and welcoming inside. They also have an upstairs that was being used, but I have never seen it. I won't be going back anytime soon.... read more

We stated the issue and nothing done when we asked about manager said he wasn't coming over read more

We have been here a couple times and it's been great. The Sunday brunch buffet (now a thing of the past because of the pandemic) was always nice and the Bloody Mary is tasty enough. So when I was considering places to gather a few friends for a birthday brunch I decided to go back. The food was good (the Nutella and banana stuffed cornflake crusted French toast is quite something if you're looking for a carb-coma sugar high) but the options are limited and they were out of a couple things. Also if you want just a regular breakfast you have to order that stuff ala carte. So a couple of eggs, sausage, hash browns, and toast will set you back $12 and change. Our server was mostly nice, but he seemed to be having not the best day; his clothes were dirty and wrinkled, he seemed flustered, and gave off a vibe like he was over it. We've all been there, but maybe try to not sigh and roll your eyes when a customer asks for something like silverware. read more

In all the times I've come here, how have I never had a grain bowl before my most recent visit? It's going to be my go-to from now on! Not some dainty health-food dish, this is a delicious, filling healthy dish. I had salmon over farro with the parsley pesto sauce and it was absolutely delicious. Also, I don't think it's mentioned that the dish is also topped with julienned vegetables. There are lots of other delicious food options too, as well as a large dessert menu. My group ordered 4 desserts and split them so no-one had to choose which to eat. The first few times I visited The Delaware was at happy hour. They have a nice happy hour and a fun drink menu. The front porch is great in the summer and I think there is a fire pit for cooler weather. Live music happens on Saturdays and Mondays. There's also a second floor dining space that can be reserved for private events. Because of Covid, my group of 6 reserved the small semi-private space off to the side of the main dining area. It was perfect for us, so that we felt we had space to relax and enjoy our meal separate from the other guests. read more
