We came in on Saturday afternoon with a group of 14 and had the best time! Service was incredible, everyone was so fun and kind and we had a blast. Cade and Amber were fantastic. Will definitely stop in again!

It was my first time going here, but I was obsessed with this place. It was intimate, clean, and had comfortable and cute decor. The drinks were on point, and the service was wonderful. Everyone was friendly, but Cayde the bartender was SUCH a vibe, he really made our afternoon. 10/10 recommend, say hi to Cayde if you go!

I just visited Hartman’s earlier today in order to check out what spirit selection they had to offer and hopefully get a bottle of tequila/agave spirit. The bartender who attempted to help was a white man with long hair. I did not catch his name. I asked if they sold any spirits to which he rudely pointed me towards a list of spirits. I asked him if they sold any tequila or agave spirits, and he then again rudely answered that you can only get Tequila made in Mexico, which is true. I misspoke and corrected myself to see if they had an agave spirit, which can be made outside of Mexico. He doubled down on me saying the wrong thing. I don’t care whether Hartman’s makes agave spirits or not. This was my first time visiting the establishment and the treatment I received makes me want to never come back. A little bit of customer service can go a long way, and the person that served me did not have any of it. I will probably stop by again in the future to see if the service is different than what I experienced. And I will update this review if that happens.

I’m here often enough. I came for drag brunch. They were not at all prepared (having singles available and staffing). Service was sub par. The drag community in Buffalo is amazing. You need to do better. I question supporting this establishment ever again.

It was our anniversary and the employees went out of their way to make the evening special. The barrel room is amazing. It is so cozy and private. We will definitely be back.

Just want to let you know that I had the opportunity to try Hartman’s Straight Bourbon at a Lisa’s Liquor Barn Tasting in Rochester. Ann Lambert who was representing your brand did an excellent job sharing her expertise in spirts and provided the rich history that runs deep in your family in the Black Rock neighborhood of Buffalo. Your attention to detail in distilling is notable. Looking forward to booking a tour the the near future on the last Saturday of the month.
Monica was so helpful and friendly!! Really enjoyed food and drinks. Will deff be back!

These drinks are great on their own. They are FANTASTIC for the price. Their vanilla chai bourbon is something special and I would've happily paid double for that drink.

Stepping into Hartman's Distilling Co. felt like walking into a piece of Buffalo's living history. Tucked away in the city's Old First Ward, the distillery occupies the historic Cooperage building—a site that's breathed new life into the neighborhood. From the moment I walked in, it was clear that Hartman's is more than a distillery; it's a celebration of community and craftsmanship.Owned and operated by Justin and Jennifer Hartman, along with their family partners Bob and Lisa Hobba, Hartman's Distilling isn't just about the spirits; it's about the experience. The distillery tours, offered on the last Saturday of every month, are a must. They're not only informative, providing a deep dive into the art of whiskey making and the rich history of bourbon, America's native spirit, but also immersive, concluding with a tasting of four of Hartman's famous whiskeys. The sense of history is palpable, especially learning that the building once housed a company integral to the barrel-making industry, underlining the importance of barrels in spirit aging (Hartman's Distilling Co. ) (Buffalo Rising).The story behind Hartman's is as compelling as the spirits they craft. Justin and Jennifer returned to Buffalo with a vision to slow down and enjoy life's finer moments, encapsulated in their fine spirits. Justin, the master distiller, has a passion that's not just about distilling but about creating moments and memories. This ethos is evident in every sip of their offerings, from their Straight Bourbon Whiskey to the unique Loganberry Flavored Vodka (Hartman's Distilling Co. ) (Hartman's Distilling Co. ).As someone who appreciates the craft behind a good drink, I was impressed by their selection. The American Dry Gin, Vodka, and Straight Rye Whiskey are standouts, each with a story and a smoothness that speaks to the meticulous process behind their creation. The Loganberry Vodka Seltzer was a refreshing surprise, a nod to local flavors that captures the essence of Buffalo in a bottle.Hartman's is a testament to Buffalo's spirit of innovation and community. It's a place where the drinks are rich in history and the atmosphere invites you to make new memories. As I left, I couldn't help but feel part of something bigger—a story of passion, heritage, and the simple pleasure of sharing a good drink with friends. Hartman's Distilling Co. isn't just a distillery; it's a beacon of Buffalo's vibrant culture and an experience I'll treasure.
