This is a pretty cool place. Allen Street seemed to me (an outsider) a little higher end and artsier than other joints in Buffalo that were far more dive-like. Cozy dim lighting, soft colors, and art on the walls. There were a few tables with a small bar. The selection was the best I saw in Buffalo, with a handful of taps which featured both crafts and imports (Harpoon and Duvel were on-tap) and an extensive bottle list with some nice options there also. Service was OK...a goatee-d bartender who insisted on calling me "Buddy"...incessantly. Oh well, I guess it’s better than "Bro" (as in Don’t tase me bro!’). I had a Pile Driver IPA on draft (the house beer), which was OK, and the bartender couldn’t really answer my questions about it (such as who brewed it). The food menu looked awesome...sandwiches, salads, a cheeseplate, etc. If I was not full of wings from the Anchor Bar, I would’ve loved to eat here. I will be b

I liked this place. Nicer, semi-trendy in an earthier sort of way (typical for Allen Street). It kind of sucked that they only had three taps but the bottles were all worth drinking. Lots from Unibroue, some Caracole, Salvator, Ommegang. Nice little place. Just a short walk from Prespa and Colter Bay.

I miss living down the street from this place. Taps are kind of boring (they’ll probably have Flying Bison.. but you can get that most places in town) but the bottles shine. Saxo, Unibroue, Ommegang, some british bitters, Duvel, Southern Tier, Lake Placid and more. Last time I went they had Terrible and 2004 as well (750s.) Food is great but the menu is small. Constantly rotating special dishes. Mmm.
