Lounges in Buffalo, NY

“In the heart of Buffalo, soft lights aglow,
There’s a bar where the dreamers and night owls go.
Matinee—where the reel still spins,
And every quiet corner feels like a win.

With shadows flickering black and white,
Old films dancing in gentle light,
Each sip feels steeped in vintage grace—
A whiskeyed hush in a velvet place.

For lovers of theater, it’s perfectly cast—
A pre-show sip or a nightcap at last.
With curtains and cocktails, the timing’s just right,
To toast to the stage and the city’s bright lights.

Their menu's a marvel, a lover’s delight,
With bottles of bourbon aged just right.
But don’t overlook the star on the tray—
That flatbread pizza steals the play.

Crisped to perfection, with toppings divine,
And “Pizza of the Week” deserves its own sign.
Each slice a surprise, each bite a refrain,
Of flavor that sings and lingers like rain.

And oh—the bathrooms! What a surprise,
The cleanest in town, a joy for the eyes.
Stocked with the things you may have forgot—
From hairspray to gum, they’ve thought of the lot.

So here’s to the nights that drift and swell,
To stories on screen and cocktails that tell.
Matinee, my heart you keep—
A Buffalo gem where the spirits run deep.“

“The Moose Lodge 959/Chapter 2299 is NOT a BAR it’s a fraternity of MOOSE LODGE CHARITIES MOOSE HEART/MOOSE HAVEN and Moose International and should not be referred to as such“

“This bar on Hertel is a spacious low key place with a huge bar and great bartenders. They keep about 5 beers on tap and have a large rotating selection of craft beer in bottles and cans. They also serve a full liquor bar and wine. They do not serve food which is actually a plus because you can bring outside food in. The lighting is always low which makes it a perfect spot for a relaxing drink. There's a covered patio for summer nights and the crown jewel in my opinion is the full size shuffleboard table! It's easily one of my favorite bar atmospheres on Hertel Ave and a great place to make a new friend.“

“MILKIES 🥛 is my fav spot. Get milked“

“This place was in my hotel, Millennium, and it was a great experience!!! The food was actually tremendous. I had a drink, a shrimp cocktail, a couple of wines and the chicken parm. Everything was great!! My server, Hallie McKinnie, was absolutely the best and nicest server I can ever remember!!! Food, ambiance, service were again, top notch!!! This was better than a lot of restaurants I have eaten at. the shrimp cocktail was the best also!!!! Very cool place. they could up their wine list but that's not a big thing here in Buffalo...... IT was very good!!“

“We got fun pretty girls, amazing bartenders, good prices, and you can smoke inside! Bet you'll have a great time😚“

“I think it’s fine the way it is. I especially like that I can get a fish fry any day It’s very good to0. If there were one thing I would change is the parking situation. That’s it“

“Loved the atmosphere!!! Gabriel was our bartender and took such good care of us!! We will be back for sure!“

“Fun for a night out plus there’s weekly events and karaoke too, I love the wings and atmosphere it’s nice to chill. Definitely a good place to meet with friends. The wings here are not your average wings, I don’t know what they do but they’re sooo good the cajun is magical. The drinks are good. Definitely improved since the last time, I love how fast they are. Good music, good vibes.. There is security checking ID and making sure things are ok, it is a bar and restaurant so they do have all types of food including breakfast and dinner. Bathrooms are okay and clean, hit or miss with toilet paper thankfully I brought my own bc you never know sometimes.. lol“

“We attended the brunch today. The service was both friendly and accurate. The food was outstanding. We tried their famous cinnamon rolls, as well as other brunch items. We were pleased with all the food. The owners were present. They were very nice to their guests. We plan to go back to have their dinner soon.“
