“Really enjoyed the fried pickles(great batter) and cheese fries. Good American Menu. The band was WAY too loud and the sounds were very unbalanced, couldn't hear or understand anything. We had to wear ear plugs.Vegetarian options: Really good veggie wrap.“
“Been there numerous times. Food is very good and prices reasonable. The place is clean and well maintained. Service varies from very good to somewhat slow, depending on who is working. All in all, this is a really good place to come and eat.“
“Raffs is my favorite local bar. The drinks are cheap the food is awesome. The atmosphere is very laid back and a tad on the older side. Pool and darts are cheap and everyone is very ready for a little competition, maybe even a gambler or two in the bar every now and again as well.“
“Good spot. Would recommend if you’re looking for a place to hang during the game. Food was good. Service was great. Lots of different options on their menu. They even made something that wasn’t currently listed for us.Kid-friendliness: They brought out the kids meal early so our 1 year old didn’t have to wait.“
“This is a great reason to support local businesses. Pizza is very good and priced right, $5-8 less than the other guys. And it's a solid pie. Wings are another strong point: great sauces, cooked perfectly and a good size.Service is as warm and inviting as it gets, one person nicer than the next. Love taking the kids on the weekends because it's not going to cost you an arm and a leg. This is what a neighborhood local should be.“
“Clean, worn but cared for. CASH ONLY, atm on site.Highlight- consistent high quality simple food with a rotating special menu at more than fair pricing, easily have a drink, and meal for $20-25 with a tip.Bar is cozy, restaurant roomy on the simple side.Parking: In front, and to the left of building NOT TO THE RIGHT, that is private parking for the business next door and may be ticketed or towed.“
“*EDIT 3/5/24*Been a few more time since my recent review and the wings have been absolute ? lately. The last 5 times I've been were right on par with some of the best wings around town. Sauces are spot on, big fan of the hot-cajun and bbq-cajun. Service has been exceptional as well. Boosting up to a 5 star now since the last 5+ times I've been have all been perfectBeen to this place twice now since Ive been told best wings in WNY. My first time was a major letdown, I did the Double Dip with Cajun and Honey Mustard, the wings were so overcooked that all I tasted was other leftover food from the char marks. I wanted to give them another try because I always feel like these types of bars have mediocre food during the days and then they step up at night when the rush comes in so I went in again on a wknd night and ordered the Cajun-Medium Double Dipped. Once again, I ran into 3-4 of the wings extremely overcooked but the other ones were 100% spot-on, flavor was killer and the chicken was on point. Only if I could get a full order of decently cooked wings then my review would be higher. Also docking a bit of a point because I was told their top shelf whiskey was Seagrams 7... I mean, I get its a local bar but really?Positives were that the bartenders were all super friendly and were flying around the bar. There was a large wait for bigger groups to get tables but that is expected on a Friday night in a smaller location like this. Parking lot was a zoo with people trying to find spots. Ample televisions on to watch the game and overall seems like a fun local spot.All in all, Id recommend stopping in if you are in the area. Its a good group of people but the Wings just haven't left their mark on me (yet). Im hoping that changes though.Overall 3.5/5“
“they've always had great burgers I tried the lobster bisque it was great and our waitress was awesome I got to speak with the manager he really knows what he's doing been in the business almost as long as I have great job everyone I will be “
“we didn't go to eat, we went for the music. it must have been a while since I've been there. i had no clue they had an outside venue with outside bar. I had a great time, no wait for a drink either... I'll be back. always liked the place. now even better...“
“The peanut butter bacon burger was fantastic. I requested med rare and it was perfectly cooked. The staff was great, I actually parked in the lot next door and it turns out the mosque there has late night services and double parks so I got blocked in. The bartender was super hospitable and let me chill without feeling bad I wasn't buying more. He offered water and apologized he didn't have more entertainment. If you visit my only recommendation is don't park next-door, I was in a far corner with plenty of open spaces in the Walgreens parking that was attached. There are also no signs prohibiting parking.Parking: Don't park near the mosque next-door they will block you in.“
“Drinks are great! Bartenders know what they're doing! Don't screw around, get the rosettes or a pizza! Amazing! Awesome service EVERY TIME!Parking: Small, tight lot especially trucks. But, there are sidewalks so street parking isn't too bad and Lancaster is a safe place.“
“We gathered for a party. There were over 50 people, outside at there tiki bar area, and outdoor seating. The bar tender did her best to keep up with orders of food and drink. The roast beef was absolutely delicious. The prices for everything are very reasonable. The only downside is the conditions of the restroom. ~We'd return again, if invited to another gathering there.“
“Missed out on the kitchen but stayed to enjoy a couple brews. The bartender was attentive and made sure my beer selections were in alignment with my preferences. I like to start with a light blonde, enjoy the taste of a nice red, and end with a thick & sweet stout or lager.“
“First time in the area for a Bills game- From Toronto, Ontario..was trying to find a place that was open for some food for after the game. Stumbled upon Kettles. We called from the car asking if we could do an order for pick up. They initially said they usually don’t do that on game nights and prefer people to dine-in. We mentioned that we were driving back to Toronto that night- agreed to make the wings and could pick them up in 20minutes.Did not realize they were a cash only and explained that I didn’t know if my bank card would work in their atm being from Canada- the lady that I was dealing with offered that I could venmo her the amount (Canada doesn’t have venmo) ATM worked. Wings were paid for. Service was great. Staff was very friendly. Wings were AMAZING. Will be a for sure stop every time I’m back on American soil.“
“I keep asking myself why I don't come here more often. Over the years, I have never had a bad meal at this place. Plus, if you're just stopping for a drink, the bar has always been pretty fun - always a nice group of locals, down to earth folk here. The menu was a really good mix of options with plenty of choices for everyone, no matter what you're in the mood for. Located just a short hop outside of East Aurora, I always find it's worth my drive from Williamsville to do a little shopping in town and grab a lunch or dinner at Kodiak Jack's. My latest choice was the prime rib and stuffed hot pepper sandwich. It was some of the most tender prime rib I have ever had on a sandwich. Chicken wings were half price, so we started with wings as an appetizer to split between us. The wings had a nice light crisp on the outside, and were tender and juicy on the inside. Perfection. Portions are hardy, there's no skimping here. If you're looking for a new restaurant option and want to turn it into an afternoon, drive on out to East Aurora and see some of the most beautiful shops and have a lovely meal.“
“Brick House Tavern is one of the first places I think of when friends want to meet for drinks, casual dinner, or a late night snack. The food is always consistently good, especially the salmon, tater tots, and knockout shrimp, but you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The comfortable atmosphere and great staff welcome you to settle in and relax at the bar or a table by the fire. If you do choose to sit at the bar, you will likely have the good fortune of meeting Danny, who expertly presides over libations and spreads good will to everyone there. Danny takes the time to talk to each patron and easily makes connections with people, to the point where on return visits, he remembers what you usually order and suggests, or even designs new drinks for you, based on what he knows you’ll like. There is no better ambassador for Brick House than Danny, from his talent at mixology to his genuine interest in people and expertise in building relationships. Every time I go there, it’s like hanging out with a trusted friend or member of the family. Danny has bartended, served, and even has helped in planning several large gatherings that I have been a part of at Brick House. He truly gives his time and attention to every person in the party. Constantly in tune, drink refills seem to magically appear or he arrives to check in. Danny is an original and one of the reasons why Brick House Tavern and Tap is a regular spot for me!“
“Based on another review I just got a takeout fish fry from here on 3/3. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! The fish was cooked perfectly I loved all 3 of the salads especially the potato salad. It was well spiced. I liked the onion to potato ratio. The fries were crispy. All in All a home run.“
“Yes . I was greatly impressed on the local little Hot Spot or what may come of the future . I know what it's like to get 8t on track .I managed my own business, I it was more than I expected. Good Luck I'll be back soon .Smoked Wings ?“
“Talty's is a South Buffalo institution. Great place for multigenerational groups and families. Dennis is an authentic pub host/owner always making everyone feel at home and welcome. Junior does a great job of keeping your glass full even when the pub is crazy busy. Great local music and musicians. And Monday night open mic is a real treat. Wonderful Irish pub for any day of the year.“
“Sals is definitely an underrated hidden gem. My husband and I have been coming here for years for the honey Cajun wings, I’ll get legitimate cravings for specifically the honey Cajun lol full disclosure the seating isn’t the most comfortable but they definitely make up for it with the food and service“
