There are many options for drinking in PB and The Local is a good choice.

Good music and friendly service. Need to let less people in though, too crowded can barely move, college boys will grope on you to get you to move instead of ask to excuse them , and the floor moves under you because of the extra overload. But the food was great!!

We went here for the Bills game on Sunday. The bar us very nice and our server was fantastic.They had a special menu of food native to Buffalo, NY. I must say this was the worst beef on weck sandwich attempt I have ever seen and the pizza logs were no bueno. Not even close to authentic Buffalo food.Still a nice experience though and I'll be back for drinks and the atmosphere only next time :)

We had 8 people and a baby so we sat outside because it was quieter so we could talk and we were glad to see heaters as the evening was getting cool. Turns out only one of the heaters had propane! Fortunately the party using the heater left soon after we arrived and it was moved over to our table. I had the Ahi Tuna Wrap and it was fantastic! Hubby had the Huli Chicken Bowl and though it was prepared well, the flavor was pretty bland. The Hummus plate was tasty and the pretzel balls were good.

Been here a few times and it’s pretty much always a fun time. I came here years ago, and just returned again and had equally as much fun. The drinks are cheap and it’s in an awesome location. It’s a bit of a younger crowd, but that’s to be expected in PB. All in all, good spot that I always try to hit up when I’m in the area

Went out for my friend’s bday. Got to the bar around 10pm, no line and security guy Todd was unnecessarily rude and disrespectful while check our IDs as if he was dealing with a long line of drunk adolescents. He was extremely unprofessional and spoke to us in a chauvinistic tone. The lack of manners was honestly appalling. As someone that used to work in the service industry, I suggest selecting someone else to greet your patrons at the door since that’s what set the tone for the night.

Came on Thursday Trivia night and it was SO fun! Our group sat upstairs and the views of the sunset over the waters was PHENOMENAL! Bring a jacket or blanket though if you get cold easily like me . They had happy hour so our food and drinks were discounted! Very fair prices. We got the popcorn chicken and nachos, both were yummy and had large portions.Tip: If you arrive early you get to enter into a "chugging" competition and if you win you get free drinks! (No, our group didn't win )

I was charged a 3.5% surcharge that I was not aware of when paying because the waiter just came with the POS displaying the final amount to be paid. I was only able to see it because I've requested a printed receipt. On top of that, the suggested additional tip stated on the receipt was lunch lower than what I left (again the POS prompting me to leave more). More transparency with billing would be appreciated.Otherwise everyone was nice and the atmosphere was good. Just check your bill before you pay.

Only been during college football, It’s the place for Sooners football. They have all the treats from Campus corner.Parking: Parking sucks. But that’s a city thing. Need more public parking garages.

Terrible service and communication from the manager Clayton with the yellow shirt. Had some weird rules out of nowhere and made this experience unenjoyable aboutZero rules
