5 Best Gastropubs near Lewiston

“Excellent location right on the Niagara River, and If you've never been to the Griffon then you should definitely check it out! All the food is good, but their specialty is the chicken fingers..gotta get those when you come here! Plenty of outdoor seating too!“

“We went here for dinner one night, and liked it so much we came back for lunch the next day! The service is great, our waitress (got lucky and had her both times) was so sweet and she gave absolutely killer recommendations. Everything we ordered was incredible, drinks and food. I'm gluten free, but intolerant not allergic. They have a great selection of fully GF options (no cross contamination/shared fryer), but also have a bunch of stuff that is technically GF if cross contamination isn't an issue for you, the staff was really knowledgeable about the menu and allergens and was able to answer all my questions. So if you can handle cross contamination/shared fryers, ask them what dishes would be okay for you!We tried:The Game Burger: it was Lamb when we went, we both got it and absolutely loved it.The Bacon Jam Burger: my boyfriend absolutely loved thisThe pot roast sandwich: super tender meat, delishThe calamari: this is so good, I can't describe it. Super buttery, and served with a little bit of spicy peppers. It is divine.The sweet potato fries: crispy and delish, and the honey butter is next levelThe Chocolate Oblivion: it's their only gluten free dessert, but it is so good. I was nervous when they described it was a "dense" flour free torte, but it has an amazing smooth texture almost like a mousse and a cheesecake had a baby. It is rich and decadent, we split it and CRUSHED it. ?Drinks:My bf enjoyed a few beers, and their beer list is HUGE. great selection.Bourbon maple smash: strong, but super tasty. Not very sweet, but I prefer thatVanilla Chai White Russian: this was my favorite, not super sweet but absolutely incredible. It's very well balanced, and just so freaking good.Cranberry Gin Fizz: Made with my favorite gin (the botanist) and it is SO tasty, perfectly sweet and tart and just a refreshing easy sipper.Just go here, it'll be worth it!Dietary restrictions: So many allergen and dietary preference options, and the staff knows their stuff on all of the above! You can probably be accommodated here, and won't have to guess if your dietary restrictions are understood or if what you're eating is okay for you.“

“A neighborhood watering hole. It felt like I walked into a scene in Cheers, someone knew someone. An authentic bar, what ya see is what ya get. The food was ok, but definitely filling. The owner, I guess he is, talked a lot of s#!+, funny guy.“

“Very good food. This restaurant is a hidden gem. When you first walk in, it is a pleasant surprise. It has an awesome menu with quite a few options. I got the Vietnamese Brussels sprouts and the Garrison burger, both of which were amazing. Overall I highly recommend.“

“The Cubanos sandwich will blow your balls off, even the salad was somehow incredible. For dessert we had the banoffee banana toffee thing, I wish I had some left to rub on my nipples, you can tell the Chefs love what they do, absolutely amazing food experience overall, will be back 100%.“
