The fish fries were outstanding and the salads were homemade and tasty. Are server was friendly and attentive. They are little on the expensive side compared to other restaurants

I love coming here when I'm in Buffalo. Had the Fish Fry on 7/22/25, and it was great as usual. A heck of a plate of food for $20. Had a couple of Genny beers, and Gimlet to round it out, and wash it down, and including tax, my total was about $32. A very good deal for a great lunch.
Getting harder to find these good old neighborhood corner bars in Buffalo.
Hope they keep it up, and never close.
I sat at the bar. But they have a large dining area with bigger tables. So group seating shouldn't be a problem. They don't have much Parking though. So it may take a little time to find a spot on the street if you get here at a busy time.

I am not going to sugarcoat it — this place is a dive bar/restaurant. That being said, it is one of the best in Buffalo & almost everyone in Buffalo knows about how good it is. If you’re recently relocated/around the area on a trip to Buffalo — ya gotta go. It’s like a rite of passage.

My family has brought me here since I was a kid…have always gone on Fridays and gotten the soup and fish fry. Never disappoints. That being said — I have been in Iowa away for work a bit and finally got the chance to stop by again today (Monday, 12/9/24). While the fish fry is Fridays only, they always have 4 soups on. Their chicken noodle soup is absolutely to die for & in my opinion the best in Buffalo by far. Always loaded up, filling to the point that 2 bowls could be your meal, and a great deal at $5.

Also wanted to say that the service here is always great. Ate my soup at the bar — bartender tonight who was a younger male (didn’t catch his name unfortunately) was A+. Better than any bartender you’ll find downtown, at chain restaurants, or pretty much any other local haunt in Buffalo.

Overall — this place is amazing. Having travelled all over the US with sports teams, it is one of those places you try to find that’s a local legend in whatever city you’re in. Try it out — you won’t be disappointed.

Parking: Park at the school across the street as long as it is after school hours. Nobody minds and you’re all good there. Other than that — very narrow parking lot to left side of restaurant and street parking. Would 100% recommend just parking at the school for convenience — you won’t be towed — nobody cares.

Kid-friendliness: Bar in the front and a restaurant with booths/tables in the back that are separated & have ample space between them. Not a rowdy crowd; mostly older people at the bar. Definitely kid friendly.

I don't know if it's because I was the last person to order or whatever but my fish was greasy as hell and the sides were bland. Wiechec's is definitely not worth the hype.
