I went there Wednesday for Metal Night and it was my first time there and the atmosphere was great! It was a lot bigger than I thought and the staff was very friendly and they had a wide range of drinks and also NA drinks! Will definitely be returning!

This is one of the best places to go in Buffalo for summer patio hangs. They've got THC seltzers & a fantastic beer selection. More importantly I can bring my puppy here and he also is a huge fan!

The bartender (Emelia) cared way more about whatever she had to do on a Sunday night (after 11 PM) instead of making money at a bar that was full. Who calls last call then proceeds to get upset when people order more drinks directly after? That is quite literally the point of last call. The bartender then proceeds to serve like her boyfriend after he comes in after “last call” but not the other two groups of people who got turned away. There’s a reason it took me so long to get to this place, probably won’t be coming back especially if this chick is working. Selection of beers is average and underwhelming for a bottle shop and there’s several better bottle shops in the area.

I got together with friends for a beer and a bit of food. I ended up not eating, but LOVED the fact that all items could be made vegan. Good going Beer Keep! Loved the atmosphere and will make this place a regular stop with friends.

They seriously feature lagers and IPAs. One shelf for stouts and porters with none on tap. Server was nice enough but mostly hanging with her friends. On a chilly day, nobody took their coat off. Seems to cater to the area college crowd more than older beer folks

A great bar for craft beer enthusiasts. Everything can be ordered to go, have a small bottle shop, good menu of Buffalo area pub food classics that can be offered as vegan/vegetarian. Get a milk pour, a loaded plate and people watch in the Elmwood village.

Justine is goated (she's the best) that is literally all I have to say. Good beer, fantastic service.

Good beer variety including draft, cans and bottles. Good amount of seating with a couple of tvs over the bar. There is a dart board in the back.
