“We ordered the loaded nachos with chicken, light on cheese, and a stinger sub and fries last night. Delicious. Loved the food and the cheerful young girl who served us at the Drive thru window.“

“Wow, this establishment is a far cry away from the pirate bar it used to be back five some odd years ago. We came here from Hamilton for a new years dinner. Had the place to ourselves, it was nice. A gentleman, by the name of Harmeet owns this establishment. Very friendly gentleman, very inviting, greeted us and told us about the food and displayed a passion for his food unlike any I've seen before. He makes most his food and all his sauces from scratch. Things like the fries and mozzarella sticks he gets in bulk, but he ensures a quality provider. The mozza sticks had that nice gooey stringy stretch to them. The fries were the first hint this meal was going to be good. Well seasoned and crunchy, done just right. My brother's girlfriend had them in a poutine and the serving was very generous, definitely fill you up to the max with one order. She was very happy with this dish. My brother had the parm chicken sandwich and I had the Nashville Chicken sandwich. The chicken patty was perfect, so juicy. The Nashville wasn't your traditional style sandwich (usually garnished with coleslaw, pickles, and tossed in Nashville sauce) it had the seasoning dry rubbed on, I think there was a sauce to it, but the chicken was so juicy it really didn't need much. It was topped with a slice cheddar, lettuce, onions, and I think there was tomato, but I'm not sure. It was so good it was gone before I had time to really analyze it lol. The key take away from this meal was my wifes chicken wings... Of anywhere we have ever had wings, these by far were the best we have ever had. The breading was thin and not overwhelming, good meat content too. Generous saucing (she got the honey hot), and they are also marinated to boot, absolutely phenomenal. Harneet has a skill for his homemade sauces, he let me try his dynamite sauce (which for most people I would say is at the top of their tolerance for hot sauce, he also has hotter), but the ballance of sweet to heat is perfect. I can not stay enough about how good this food was. The place doubles as a convenience store, so its very unassuming. This place is on the route for one of my favorite motorcycle routes, so I will be back 100%. Thank you for serving me, and the outstanding dining experience.“

“My wife and I were in town from Montreal and were looking for a rarity in the Falls, a real pub. We immediately felt at home there. The local beer on tap was great, the vibe in the room was chill and the music (with apologies...Paige ?) was excellent. Really cool spot.“

“One of our favourite bars , great owners, staff and friendly regulars. Great music and pizza. Excellent place for music“

“Went there for st. Patrick’s day. Couldn’t be more pleased. We had a reservation and got seated immediately. Service was fast and friendly and the food was out of this world. I think I’d sell my soul for more sticky toffee pudding. If you want an idea of their service I watched a man straight up slap a glass of beer out of the waitresses hands (he was a hand talker and it was an accident) and into the wall. She was super kind about it and someone (a manger or owner) came over and immediately changed out everything and cleaned everything up while the server got a new beer. Everyone was kind and quick about it and had I not happened to catch it out of the corner of my eye. they were so discrete Idt I would have. As a table we tried the Sheppards fries, the corned beef and cabbage, corned beef sandwich and sticky toffee pudding and all were incredible. Definitely will be back!“

“I had the BEST Peppercorn steak! 🔥🔥🔥🙌“

“Pasta was overcooked. Sauce was sour. Had to ask for grated cheese twice before we got it. Same with water. The restaurant and bar were very busy but no excuse for the disorganization we experienced. Probably won't go back as Buffalo has many Italian restaurants with better food, atmosphere and prices. We went at the high recommendation of friends and were very disappointed.“

“Owner is like family!…plus live bands!“

“I take my wife and kids here every Friday. Awesome spot with a great beer selection. I've been a mug club member for a few years, and they always have a couple IPAs on tap that I love. Also, having Macy's Place Pizza right down the street is the perfect combo.“

“Don’t miss the Friday night fish fry.“

“Cool buffalo relic of the past. Older crowd, cheap pricing and a small parking lot out back. Went in at 9pm on a Saturday and it was just two patrons and the bar was ready to close by 10. But they open at 8am. Super clean facility especially for how much history it has.“

“I really like this bar, it's so large and clean. The servers were exceptionally mindful taking the orders. The beverages were exceptionally delicious and reasonable also. I will definitely visit this spot again and bring my entire companions.“

“Always a great time! Friendly owners.“

“My friend and I came here on a soft opening night just to supoort Adam, who we knew as a bartender from Lucky Day.

The restaurant was busier than expected, for both employees and Customers, but that was a great sign. The service was slow, but understandable for a pre-opening. I'd come again regardless!

Wings were fresh and flavorful. Pictured are carolinda goldie and cowboy butter, with a cajun dusting. The cowboy butter (add cajun dusting) was phenomenal. The elote bites were very interesting with a unique taste. As someone who lives in the heart of downtown, this is a great new place within walking distance.

Congratulations, Adam and Team, on the new restaurant.“

“Wanted a real bar, not a hotel bar while in Niagara Falls. Walked up and they had a Molson Canadian beer light in the window, found my bar. Walked in and went to the end of the bar by myself and ordered a Molson. The bartender, Frannie, said they didn't have it, haven't in years. Disappointed at first, but reminded of a lot of my hometown bars.
Sat alone drinking my beer when one of the regulars ordered a round of Duck farts. She then looked down at me and asked if I would do one too, I said sure. After the whole bar did a shot she invited me down to join them and asked me my story. We chatted a bit and then she introduced me to everyone in the bar.
I stated playing pool with two of the regulars and asked one of them what were all the plaques on the wall. He told me pool tournament plaques, as I beat him. Wasn't sure how that would work out. I bought a round of Duck farts and it was all good.
Had a great time. Areal local bar. Walk in and respect their house.“
