    I’ve been coming to French Pub since I was a kid. Great selection of pub grub and Buffalo staples. Beef on Weck was tasty, just a little dry. Love the option of beef on Weck + chicken finger/wing combo. A little odd that fries cost extra on top of some already pricey sandwiches. Pizza logs and blood orange margs were delicious. Love the free popcorn. Miss the salad bar!! Outstanding service by Ari!!

    Roast beef and French fries and popcorn not bad. Fries were good roll was thick and seemed dry. But it was fresh. Maybe the type of roll they were using.

    Recently the restaurant has expanded its indoor dining to create more dining room. Wait times can get high just due to demand so it is only worth it if you go before or after the dinner rush. The entrance is often crowded due to the bar being right there. They do give you free popcorn to start with that is always fresh. Food is always hot and delicious, my personal favorite include the French dip.

    Came in today right at open. Got sat immediately asked for a few minutes to look at the menu and we were forgot about (over heard 2 waitresses talking) no big deal right? First time here and hears great things about the food. Order the triple decker and the beef on weck. First off the beef had no flavor at all and for $14 was one of the smallest I've had. The triple decker had I think 2 pieces of turkey on it. Upgraded to sweet potato waffle friends for $3.99 and I think we got about 8 fries total. $45 for 2 meals and 2 drinks is absolutely absurd for the portion sizes they offer. First time there and will be my last time ever returning.

    The Pub always hits every mark. Super polite and helpful staff. Quick service. Delicious food. Even parking is a dream! MY husband loved the beef stew.. And he's super picky about that dish. The coconut cream pie was fab! And the fish fry was what my life was missing.

    1st time here last night, sat at the bar because of a 10 mn wait with visible tables empty. Bar was great time filled with regulars. Robert the bar tender was spot on! Great service, attitude. I had french onion crock and a house salad, soup was great, salad was ok but lacking in green leaves compared to the salad brought out next to me. My wife had the fried pickle appetizer and beer cheese soup. Both were good. Over all a good experience,

    One of the best Beer Battered Fish Fry's in the area. A must stop everytime I come to town. Recommend the Beer Cheese soup as well.

    Went there in early afternoon on Black Friday to meet friends for drinks and appetizers. Place was busy and we found a few seats at the bar and nearby. Bartender was friendly and efficient. After a short while, one of our group was missing his Quick Draw tickets which haven’t even run yet. After complaining, a manager explained that the bartender had thrown them out. He searched the garbage and retrieved the guys $120 in tickets. An hour later, after returning from the restroom, I discovered a ticket I had won $18 on was gone. My friends informed me that the bartender had come outside the bar and cleaned the area by my drink and cell phone. I informed her of it and her reply was I’m sorry, I’m not looking through the garbage and she turned and walked away. Wrong answer. I will never spend another dime in this restaurant. I’m thankful my phone wasn’t thrown out.

    Moved to the area recently and have been trying out local restaurants. We where very impressed with French Pub. Had a delicious lunch here. They first start you off with some complimentary fresh popcorn, which was delightful. I got a French dip sandwich and my partner got a hot roast beef. Both were quality sandwiches at reasonable prices. We will definitely return to try other items off the menu. Can't wait to visit again.

    The expected wait was 45 minutes, but it ended up only being maybe half of that time. The waitress was kind and promptly brought us popcorn to munch on and took out frod order. The restaurant was very busy but our food came out in a timely manner. The soup and salad bar was wonderful and both the meatball noodle and new England class chowder were excellent. There were TV's around showing different sport channels. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly and everyone enjoyed their food. The beer battered fried fish was wonderful, too.

    Nice and clean. The food was pretty good but the prices are a little on the high side for the amount of food you actually get. Our waitress was ok. Not the friendliness. Overall not too bad.

    Update - I love that they have partnered with my child's school for reading rewards! 1st time back here in quite some time. Food was better this time than the last time. Service took a little longer than I expected but wasn't too bad. Would go back again!

    Good bar food, but it’s not excellent. I came here because I’ve heard great reviews from people in the Buffalo area but I didn’t think the food was that great. I liked that they give you popcorn to start. I ordered the beer cheese soup since a lot of the reviews mentioned it (6.5/10).

    I was dining out with 2 friends and brought my one year old too. I ordered a water for myself and a small water for my baby, my friend across the table ordered a Pepsi. She comes back with the drinks and my baby slugs his down. I noticed a brown drop come out of the end of the straw. My 1 year old infant had just drank an entire cup of Pepsi but I had no idea because the cup had a lid. I was very upset. The waitress was apologetic but it didn’t help. Imagine a 1 year old drinking an entire cup of caffeine. I was polite but VERY upset and I expressed that to her. I asked to speak with the manager/owner. His words consisted of “it was a mistake and I don’t know why you’re carrying on about it. What do you want me to do? What do you want a free meal? Not everything thinks like you do and other people might give their babies pop” I politely told him that I wanted him to know my concerns because I was a paying costumer and he was in charge. I assumed he would empathize with me but since I was a bother to him I’d just never return…. He did comp half of our meal and apologized again but he had already brushed me off and treated me as if I had no right to be upset and as if I was trying to scam them for a free meal. I will never return here again. Poor customer service. Accidents happen but then you’re apologetic and empathetic. My one year old was due for a nap now and he’s crying and upset and unable to sleep. I feel terrible.

    Food came out, it was overcooked, chicken fingers were dried out and terrible waitress gave the wrong dish to a person she started cutting it all up then realized it was not hers and the waitress handed to correct person. I'm sorry but with covid, it should have been remade. Over priced . However the roast beef was good on the hard roll. I would reccomend that but not the combo plate

    Food was very good, selections and value were very reasonable. I went BBQ and wasn't disappointed. Beer and cocktail choices and prices were reasonable as well. Service was outstanding.

  • 4/5 James S. 6 months ago on Google
    Good spot. Would recommend if you’re looking for a place to hang during the game. Food was good. Service was great. Lots of different options on their menu. They even made something that wasn’t currently listed for us.

    If no stars was possible. Went there with my family. Was told there’d be a 10 minute wait because they’re understaffed. Another party came in after us and was told 15 minute wait for the same reason. Oddly enough that party was sat before us within 5 minutes. We walked out after being ignored. Place has severely taken a loss and it shows why. Mediocre at best, and that’s a compliment.

    Sitting at the bar your greated by a gorgeous blonde lady with the most amazing personality smile and style! Danielles been here 14 years!!! She hustles the bar making every customer smile! I'll literally come back just to see her!!! We got a delicious basket of popcorn while we waited for our food! Food was imaculant! Most delicious bar food!!! Danielle came over way more times than any tender I know to check in on us! This lady legit had a full bar and still was able to "table touch" us a dozen times. YOURE MY FAVORITE BAR TENDER ON THIS WHOLE COAST!!! I say this coast as I haven't been west yet but I'm 1000% confident I'll never find another like her!!! I miss you're smile and energy already!!! Yah all got lucky with this charm of a lady!!! She's double my age and works harder than me!!! I'll be returning to see you're precious face🥰 She's truly stunning all around!!!

    Good food and good prices. Does get very busy at times. But I would definitely go back

  • 5/5 Tim C. 1 year ago on Google
    The Reuben with Ruffle brand chips is amazing!!!! They brought over the wrong food 3 times so it really kept the anticipation for my sandwich high which I really enjoyed! Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Nicolette G. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was good and they had a wide interesting selection! Was a tiny bit disappointed in the buffalo chicken panini. One would expect chicken, hot sauce and blue cheese (almost like wing dip on a panini). However, it's chicken fingers cheese and bacon. My fault for not reading the whole description. Was still pretty good 👍 Fries were awesome too

    Since my first time to the French Pub, 20 some years ago, I have never had anything negative to say about this place. My kids even love coming here to eat. The food is always great, the servers are always friendly with positive attitudes and it makes for a great atmosphere. The French dip and French onion soup are my faves! Would definitely recommend this place if you have never been here!
