Matinee

👍👍 Went with the Young Black Professionals of WNY Meetup group for happy hour and despite our large group, we all have excellent service from the staff.
Enjoyed the overall vibe and aesthetic of this being a bar in the theater district which was cool.
I got the Wednesday special which was $20 for the...

Buffalo Distilling Company
Distillery
👍👍 Stopped here as part of our 2022 wny beer trail pass. What an awesome spot to hang out and drink at. The bartenders are awesome and friendly, drinks are delicious and cold and the music was perfect and not too loud like most smaller bars. We will be back for more drinks soon.

👍👍 Not sure how it took me so long to try their food! But I’m sure glad I finally did!
I went in Hot Mama’s Canteen on a Saturday night around 11pm. The kitchen was still open , however there was an event happening so there was a woman charging $5 at the door. Our group of 3 were only there for food,...

Hartman's Distilling Co.
Cocktail bar
👍 Great cocktails. Absolutely skip the "charcuterie" - it was basically a salad with some flavorless crackers, shaved cheese and deli meat (not the more traditional cured meats). The menu says it comes with a baguette, which would make it slightly better if that's what you actually got. Thought we got...

Fugazi
Cocktail bar
😠 Fun atmosphere, strong drinks. I can only leave one star, not because of the establishment its self, but I was drugged there. They get super busy and can't watch everything that happens. Do not leave your drinks unattended.

Lloyd Taco Factory

👍👍 Dirty South taco was the hit for us - fried chicken with a bit of sweet syrup and flat waffle crisp-like pieces.
Fast service, food came out quick and place is clean and hip. Roll up garage doors in front make for cool people watching.
Bar area looks decent as well if you want a cocktail...

We were never given any expectation of when we would be seated or how long the wait would be. The only thing...
