Excellent brewery!We came in with friends and had a great meal with some good beers.My wife and I tried a flight and liked everything we tried. Our server (Carson) was awesome. The vibe is very cool.We had their poutine appetizer - amazing! My wife had their French onion soup - amazing! I had their meatloaf sandwich and you guessed it…AMAZING!! It has cheese and bacon and was just out of this world.I would highly recommend both the food and beer. The one drawback is that it is not an inexpensive meal. Quality food often isn’t, but I might even say it pricey for the atmosphere.I’ve updated my review because I bought a specialty release from them and just recently drank it. It was their 4-8-24 (eclipse) beer aged in wine barrels and it was TERRIBLE!! So had I couldn’t even finish it. The wine taste totally overwhelmed it and it was very disappointing. The real kicker was it was over $31 for a 22 oz. beer. They really missed on this release.

First time here, I would definitely come back. The fish fry I'd HUGE!! We also tried the wood fire pizza, very good. The staff was very attentive and friendly.

Woodcock has come up with some of the best local breweries for me in WNY. Their food menu offers a lot of quality food to pair with their beer options as well. A lot of quality and hard work goes into their beer and food, and it shows.

Very good food but very slow and barely attentive service, especially at the bar, almost every time we go. Go for the good food and beer, but give yourself some extra time.

The beer is all solid. Very enjoyable and well executed. The food and service is good. However, it is absolutely infested with fruit flies. They’re everywhere, including my beer. They flew around us the entire time. Kills the vibe. I have been in over 100 breweries across the US and Canada and not dealt with a swarm like this so I know it’s not a brewery thing.

I’m a local business owner. We too fell victim to “G’s” one star review. “G” is a serial 1 star reviewer. I have made it my mission to right his wrongs with 5 star reviews on every business he has bashed locally. We have also been to this brewery several times - once with a very large noisy group from work. Everything was amazing!

Place is average. Wouldn't go out of my way to come here. A decent weekday spot if you live nearby. I know it's a brewery but their mixed drinks are bad and one was extremely strong. Wings are small but the pizza is pretty good.
Definitely order the beef on weck pizza. Also, get a few flights to try all of their beers. This is an awesome place for a quick lunch or a large get together.

We ordered stuffed pepper pizza and it was very bland. We had previously tried it at the Wilson location and it was fantastic so this was a bit disappointing. Chicken fingers and burgers were a hit with others in our party.

I NEVER leave reviews, but the fact that this has now happened on multiple occasions, I am fed up. My family is sat well before any other party and I have to go up to the hostess station to notify the staff that we have not had any service yet all the other tables and people that have arrived after us have received drinks and appetizers. Not cool, annoying AF. Doubt we will return to this location as frequent patron's. Being that I work in the industry of food service it’s really a bummer to experience this at a place my family and I really enjoy to visit.

Both woodcock brothers locations are amazing. North tonawanda and Wilson. Each has a few things different on the menu. I am sad they don't serve the Poutine again though.
Tasty local beers
