This establishment is small in size but so comfortable to hang out with friends. The service is friendly and engaging. There is an outdoor yard available to sit under the stars that is very nice. From inside to outside this is your cosy go to place to hang with friends and meet new friends! I look forward to going there again very soon.

Loved this brewery! Ken was a gem and the location is warm and friendly. He gave my friend and I some really great local recommendations. I enjoyed the beers and the snacks he had also hit the spot! If you have time and are looking a unique brewery this is a must. I will always come back here and I hope it continues on for years and years!

Meet one of the co-owners and told him how much I enjoyed the brewery. Beer is super tasty. Great vibes and everyone who works there are super nice. Nice little outdoor area. Don't sleep on Spotted Octopus!

The beer was good, but the staff's morals are questionable. When going to get a beer, I saw a girl sitting in the floor, clearly unwell, her 'friends' sitting at the bar. I asked if she was ok, they told me she was fine and been drinking since 8 am and it was her birthday, it was 6:30 pm. A few minutes later my friend held her hair while she puked on the floor. The bartenders gave her friends supplies to clean up, allowed her to stay there, and kept serving her friends. I left 30 minutes later, and this poor girl was still on the floor, practically unconscious. Her friends were too busy drinking to care about her well-being, and the fact the bartenders let them stay is despicable.
I hope this girl, Lauren, spends her next birthday with some better friends.

Great beer, better people! They have a ton of options and trivia is always a blast with cool and interesting prizes!

The owners are fantastic. Great conversations and wonderful variety of beers. The seltzers are a hit and the sour is a must try. You all are fantastic?
Love this place. Always a great time. Amazing beers, cool little bites to eat. Service is always amazing, especially from Brett. We stopped in here as one of our stops on the WNY Beer Trail.We will ALWAYS come back. Great Place. ?

I came here for Trivia a few weeks ago. I loved the octopus themed aesthetic of the bar--painting, stuffed animals, you name it. There's all sorts of different games you can play at the tables in the upstairs area, and I believe the dart boards are free (although you do need to keep your own score). I went for Wednesday Trivia with "A Couple of Nerds"--we had a blast! The service was wonderful--there was only one bartender but he brought us our food when it was done even though we were upstairs. They don't have an expansive kitchen but they don't need one, in my opinion. They have enough hot snacks (pizza logs, etc.) that it can keep people there. Watch your step coming out--it almost got me last time!

After some sightseeing in Buffalo, we made a quick stop at Spotted Octopus to try some of Buffalo's beer scene. I had a flight of 4 beers, which was a hard choice, because they have a nice variety. I loved the Double Chocolate Stout, but the rice lager, sour, and hazy were excellent, too. Definitely worth a stop

Beer is great and love the owners! The ambiance is inviting and comfortable and lots of games to play.

Great selection of tasty beers, extremely friendly atmosphere, and a lovely two-storey space to chill out and hang out! Plus, the pub is in the close vicinity of a very interesting native American-owned K Gallery. Don't miss any of the two places!
