Spotted Octopus Brewing Co. - Buffalo Brewery •
500 Seneca Street Suite 119, Buffalo

“Great first day at Spotted Octopus in Rochester! Loved the beer, food and especially the service. The new systems threw the team a few curveballs, but the staff kept their cool and made customer satisfaction the #1 focus. Opening on parade day proved to be the perfect pressure test and they definitely succeeded.“

Mortalis Brewing Company Buffalo Brewery • $$
1250 Niagara Street Ste 130, Buffalo

“I finally got to explore more of Buffalo on a family trip and seek out the best brewery. I may have found it here.

Not in the best or easiest part of town but there are a few other shops right there, including a beer garden around the corner. Small parking lot a few steps away.

The menu is big, but the focus is on beefy IPAs, Sours (smoothie especially), and Stouts. I would’ve liked to get a lager but I’m not complaining because everything I had was so tasty. I sampled 10 beers total (including what I took home) and nothing was below excellent. Some were borderline elite level beers.

I absolutely will be back next time I’m visiting my family“

“Party of 6. Drinks are fantastic. Food not so much and here is why. If you are in the large lounge where we were, your tables are low round coffee tables, so you eat hunched over for something like a beet salad which ended up more on the floor than in our mouths. Charcuterie tray is scant and feeds 2 at best. The oysters were watery and the taste was slightly off. We ordered 8 small plates and everyone said we are gonna need an ABV run for dinner. So I recommend small parties - no more than 4, else you will collide with the next group of tables. Great place for drinks but plan as pre or post dinner stop over like you would Savoy.“
