Went here for our first time. Been to other Griffons before so we thought to try here in youngstown. The atmosphere is pleasant and open. The menu is very limited. I ordered the double burger and my wife ordered the chicken sandwich. She wanted lettuce, onion and tomato on it. They don't have that! I saw a salad on the menu, what do they make it out of? Also chips with our order, no fries. The bartender was our server also. He was pleasant and attentive. Overall not very pleased with it Overall. But on the plus side I think the prices are a bit lower than the other Griffons.

Michelle was our bartender. She is super friendly and knowledgeable about the beer. Ordered the pretzel. So good!!! Highly recommend.

Good place to stop by and have a beer. The beer selection is good and and we did not have a bad beer there. The food menu was not bad. We had the pretzel and I can tell you that is was big and amazing. Our bartender Michelle was awesome. She knew all the different beers and helped us make choices off the menu.

Excellent place to test your taste buds. We ordered the appetizers and chicken wings and were very happy. The beer selection is great and as good as anyone in Niagara, including the Canadian side. We will definitely be back.

Craig, the bartender was approachable, friendly, and informative. He was able to inform me of all the beers flavor profiles I ordered in my flight. Love to see the commitment and ability to inform customers.
The beers were top tier. Exceeded expectations. The year one barleywine was amazing. Amaretto flavor profile.
Take the trip here. They even offer food. 👌👍

Friendly atmosphere with great selection of brewed beer
The Hamburger was delicious, so was the Korean chicken.

This restaurant has slowly become one of those places I keep coming back to when I want something good without overthinking it. Whether you’re meeting someone for lunch, grabbing a quick solo dinner, or making an evening out of it, it’s flexible enough to fit the mood. The layout is open and comfortable, with a mix of booth seating and tables spaced well enough to avoid feeling crowded. There's usually a mellow soundtrack playing in the background, and it adds to the overall relaxed vibe. The menu isn’t trying too hard to be trendy, but that’s part of the charm. It sticks to solid choices—classic comfort food with a couple of creative twists here and there. There’s a consistent level of execution that I’ve come to appreciate. Nothing ever feels rushed or thrown together, and even on busier nights, the kitchen keeps pace without sacrificing quality. Service has been consistently polite and efficient. They don’t hover, but they check in just enough to make sure everything’s running smoothly. It’s a reliable go-to that never disappoints. No matter what I’m in the mood for, I know I’ll find something that hits the spot here.

Great beer selection, that 18% dark amazing , but if you are going to have a liquor bar, a drink menu also wouldn't hurt along with a wine menu . Now the food is entirely disappointing, stop making bar food complicated, there is a thing in the military call KISS keep it simple stupid. Too much trending crap . The burger sucked tasted like a pre-made patty pizza ha d more crust than toppings pretzel is over priced for bread with garlic butter. Oh, and your salad choice , did you take a survey of kindergarten kids and ask them what is ever vegetables that don't like at put that into a salad. I brought 20 plus paying people no accommodation made till we arrived. You have a huge area now year number 2 unfinished id fired that contractor already. My roof on and 3400 square foot house only took 3 days, and that was a full tear off . Oh, I love beginning seved over priced food like and brought to me like micky Ds . I've been to your other restaurants food was good but there were actually items on a menu to order . I'm shocked. I was at an event at your place last year for the Lions Club. The food was good and delicious. Tonight was an abomination of anything approaching decent culinary experience . Oh, cook the wings a bit longer, Zero, Zero crunch to them, and was the entire jug of sauce required on them . Might return for the beer , but not to eat dinner.

Whole vibe. Napolean Complex pizza is god tier. Must have, highly recommended. Honestly, any of their pizzas are amazing though. The service is always top notch as well and we’ve always felt welcome with our kids!
