“Charming, perfect place for a cold winter night. The decor is lovely & the food was delicious. Service was excellent.“

“Oh my gosh, so we went out to dinner this evening after going to the movies. We went to Winfield Pub in South Buffalo. All I can say is WOW. My husband saw that it had a 4.7 star rating and we'd never been there. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. They have several different beers to offer and even some seasonal ones. Their drink menu is extensive but not daunting and their drinks are super creative. For our starters we got the hop fries with a garlic parmesan aioli which regulars call "crack sauce" I can see why....it's SO good! My husband got the Snout and Stout which is their take on french onion soup but with a pork broth and milk stout added to it with pieces of pork in it. We both tried it and that too was truly delicious it was a great spin on a classic dish. For our entrees my husband got the ribeye and I got the bbq mac and cheese. My husband loved his ribeye it was cooked perfectly and the sides were amazing. My mac and cheese was probably one of the best mac and cheeses I've ever had. They added burnt pork ends and blue cheese to it and it adds such a depth of flavor and richness this comfort food feels so fancy. I enjoyed it thoroughly. For dessert we shared a piece of their Guinness cake. Again, it was rich and delicious the frosting wasn't overly sweet. We brought a little bit of everything home and are looking forward to eating the rest of it tomorrow. Our server was absolutely lovely and so kind and funny. The chef at this restaurant is so creative and thoughtful with every aspect of the experience right down to bringing us the bill in a Christmas Card. This place is 5 stars!“

“Excellent pasta dish and very generous portions!“

“I’m a regular there and just wanted to give a shout out to Jade!! I’ve her multiple times as our server and she does an outstanding job. Tonight I somehow managed to lose my wallet on my way out to go home, I called in a panic as I couldn’t find, and luckily Jade had found it wedged between your front door after it must have fell out of my pocket. I truly appreciate her help as that really made my night. We love coming to your restaurant and look forward to another visit very soon!! 😊“

“Some of the best comfort food!! Amazing place“

“I wish their hours were better and open longer“

“We had our wedding food catered by them and everything was absolutely delicious! All of our guests raved about the flavors which were 100% on point and everythingwas cooked to perfection. Mike and Tracy were great to work with especially on such short notice. I'll definitely be using them in the future and highly recommend them!“

“Charlie The Butcher continues to be the premier Beef on Weck of Western New York! Thank you for all you do for the community as well! Merry Christmas!“

“Old Orchard Inn is a bit hard to find even for GPS. Be prepared to not find it on the first try if you have never been here before. The entrance road is hidden, barely paved and rough. Parking is free though. Be prepared to drive slowly when you do enter the driveway. There is a steep upward climb when you walk to the front door. If you are elderly, infirmed or handicapped, a boy with a golf cart will come get you and transport you to and from if you encounter difficulty or simply require mobility assistance. I only know this because I saw it with my own eyes. The wait was a bit long (about 30 minutes). Judy was the waitress; I see reviews with her name from 2012. She must be a lifer. Nothing wrong with that, just an observation. She is in command and can handle any customer no matter what happens. She is a good photographer if you need that service as well. Later she brought more menus and took our orders. Although she is not bashful about giving orders as well. I had the grilled lamb salad. A "hard to get" at most places for sure. It was a grilled half rack of New Zealand lamb. Crisp spring greens, goat cheese, roasted red pepper, red onion and lemon chive dressing. Highly recommend this! The sides are served family style to everyone at your table. We had summer squash and carrots, and herb roasted red potatoes. Judy will not do substitutes! The blood orange creme Brule is splendid for dessert. The restroom was a bit silly. The towel dispenser was hung from the ceiling, also just enough room to turn around in there. So, no need to be concerned about sharing it with anyone, you will have plenty of privacy. There is outdoor seating and a duck pond when the weather is nice. There is also a fireplace if the weather is cool. Certainly, memorable and will never be forgotten. In the event you are looking for something very unique with a flair for charm, the Old Orchard Inn may be just your ticket for elegance, relaxation and fun. Caveat Emptor.“

“Great food and drinks. Friendly staff. Good location. wonderful spot to meet friends!“

“Have not been to the restaurant side since Anthony took over ownership. It has a completely different vibe! The food may seem like what you have seen on a menu before, but their take on it is absolutely fabulous! I have never had a clam chowder like the one served here. It is amazing! I would return for the clam chowder alone. The sweet potato fries may look typical, but their taste-like nothing I have ever had before. Not sure what their secret seasoning is. The wings rock. We left with doggy bags because we didn’t want to waste any of the delicious food! The chicken piccata, chicken Parmesan- might want to consider sharing! If you have been here before 2023 and been disappointed, you need to revisit! Trust me! And bring even the most finicky of your teens! They will be happy as well!“

“Ordered pancakes only. They weren't on the menu alone without sides but she said they had them. Pancakes were $13.95 with a side so I never expected the pancakes alone would be $12.95. They were good but thought it was kind high with no meat or eggs or anything else. I wouldn't have ordered them if I knew it would be so much for just pancakes. Menu was nice, varried. Service was good .“

“If you want to go where everyone knows your name, it’s Kipps and the food is amazing. The service is fantastic, out of this world and you’re pretty much served within five minutes!“

“Charlie The Butcher continues to be the premier Beef on Weck of Western New York! Thank you for all you do for the community as well! Merry Christmas!“

“Best fish fry in West Seneca!“

“Delicious food, great service and pleasant atmosphere! Perfection!“

“Outstanding food, service and atmosphere! The portion sizes are HUGE and absolutely delicious. The French Onion Soup was outstanding, and the Rueben was hands down the best I've ever had. Never had an empty drink glass and our server was on top of everything we needed even before being asked. We'll make this a staple in our favorites spots!“

“My husband was given a gift certificate to Taste so we tried it out for the first time and had been routinely coming since! We love the atmosphere. Rustic building, hip coffee shop vibe. They offer tea and coffee options including seasonal features. Soup and Mac n cheese sides, breakfast, sandwiches, salads, comfort food like pot roast, and desserts displayed so you can make a choice. They have a cooler with drinks like pop, water, juices, and such, and beer selections including NA. We tend to park in the lot behind the building, walk up the stairs through the little pedestrian alley, and enter through the side door. Staff are always pleasant, food has been consistent, and the coffee is delicious. Restroom was clean when I've used it, but the tables have always needed to be wiped down the several times we've visited. There is the expectation guests will clear their trash, but perhaps adding the ability for patrons to wipe their table would be helpful. We wouldn't mind wiping it down before we leave or grabbing something from the station area to clean a dirty table before we sit as compared to not having a place to sit.“

“Nice atmosphere, great food and service!“

“My good friend and I were in this evening and I am so sad we do not live close enough, because we would DEFINITLEY be regulars!!😭❤️ We ordered the soup for our sides and it was delicious. I ordered the shrimp scampi and the sauce the shrimp was swimming in was DIVINE!!!🤌 Green beans were crisp and tasty, as well as the other items. Casey ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and she was very impressed. I believe our waiter was Kay (I hope I heard her correctly). She was very sweet and wonderful to us. We are traveling to Salem, Massachusetts from western Kentucky and this dinner was a great experiance to kickstart out trip!!❤️“

“Beef station closes at a certain time so we were not able to try beef on weck. Tight space and it can get loud on the weekends (as expected. No issue there). The waitress seemed a bit overworked but she was sweet.

“I recommend having the Apple Bourbon Burger with salted fries- both were absolutely delicious!! The burger was perfectly cooked, had incredible flavor, served with apple slices, bacon and a savory sauce and then the fries were both crispy and salty. The atmosphere was just as impressive; their Christmas decorations made the whole place feel warm, festive, and inviting. Had an amazing experience and will be back soon!“

“Love coming here because its close to where I live. We are regulars here and are always treated nicely. Anytime there is a problem with our food they fix it right away. We always go towards the end of the night so there is never a wait for us.“

“Didn’t go in but I did tailgate here on the 28’th of December before the Bills game. Thanks again for opening up the lot earlier then everyone else and letting us fans get the tailgate started good and early. Had 2 outdoor out houses for going to the washroom and they were clean for at least the begging of the day. Will defiantly be back to tail gate again.“

“My wife and I go here any chance we get. The atmosphere is comfortable. Either in the warmer months out back or inside when it is snowing looking out. Nicer than home with the ambiance. Food is always great. Drinks are to die for and desserts are sinfully good... A++++“

“Always great food. I have been a customer since they opened and have never had a bad meal.“

“I have to say you should be embarrassed at what you're serving at the fair. It was horrible! I was truly disappointed. We had 4 different menu items and NOT one was enjoyable. Its a shame you price gouged and the quality was beyond poor.“

“First time - not the last . New to the area - everyone told me to go For their fish fry . It’s a slammed Friday and they were pumping meals out and got my food 1/2 the time they told me . The owner and staff are awesome and friendly! So I Got a fish fry and took it home - still crispy and hot . Honestly a 10/10 - and I’m picky with fish fries. Best anywhere around Elma / EA !“

“Stephanie was an amazing server! She was the only person in the restaurant that acknowledged us. She sat us ,made our drinks, Brought us our food as well as 3 or 4 other tables period we watched every other employee stand around a table and talk amongst themselves while she did everything period she definitely deserves a raise!“

“The burgers are over the top delicious 🤤 will definitely be back!!“

“Always enjoy. Would definitely recommend…love the real cream served with coffee…!“

“My boyfriend & I came here for dinner while on an overnight in East Aurora. Outstanding food and service!
