Love that they appreciate the Buffalo community so much. Big props to them for distributing the magnet calendars this year to out of towners as well. Go Bills. read more

Went here because someone recommended it, and it did not disappoint! The staff was friendly, the pizza was great (definitely a fork and knife kind of pizza) and the grilled chicken fingers were amazing! Will be going back. read more

I went to lunch with my friend. He ordered a meatball sub and I ordered the steak hoagie. we sat down and ordered a couple of soft drinks. The atmosphere was nice with several TVs showing several football games. The waitress was friendly and attentive. Both of our sandwiches were very good. I think the price for soft drinks was a little high. We enjoyed our meal and we will probably return. read more

The 3 stars was for the beer selection and service. Draught beer selection is lovely and our bartender and then our server were both a delight. The food wasn't bad - it just wasn't great. Our table of 5 had a variety of sandwiches - all were ok..........but lackluster when it came to any type of seasoning or flavoring read more

The Josh Allen cocktail 2/10 Had basically no flavor. It was kinda disgusting. a flavored seltzer water would be so much better. Artichoke dip 7/10 Large chunks of artichoke, just wish they were a little smaller. The cheesiness was good though. Garlic parm fingers 10/10 Cooked perfect, crispy. Flavor was fantastic. And also fantastic as leftovers, hot or cold. Steak Fries 1/10 Don't recommend. Pretty soggy and plain. read more

I always get the chicken breast Hoagie. I love the little bit of spice the peppers add. The stuffed peppers pizza is outstanding the best in the area. I have also had the Tuna melt and chicken fingers all have been excellent. The service is good and the atmosphere is warm and cozy. I wish they had delivery. They are consistently good this is an update to my last review. read more

Take out - medium cheese and pepperoni. I wanted it delivered but the delivery guy had some car issues. While I didn't want to leave the house, sometimes you do what you gotta do. Excellent pie. One of the best I've had from this location. I think the ratio of a medium is just better than a large from this place. When all is said and done - it was a very good pie and likely better because I didn't have to wait as long. read more

Amherst nachos had minimal cheese sauce. No pico de gallo. Came with two small jars of sour cream and salsa. Jack attack was decent. Claims to have garlic toasted roll. Has no taste of garlic. California chicken sandwich came out with brown avocado. Anybody who knows avocado, knows it has a very bitter taste. Not at their best today. Ate around 12:30pm. read more

4.5 for delicious Crown Royal BBQ wings, 3 for the pizza - tasty bit the wings knocked our socks off. This place is welcoming and very traditional Buffalo sports bar type vibe. It was loud but that's what we expected. Staff were nice, didn't see much but we did get everything we needed and were checked on. I will definitely come again there's lots of options on the menu I would like to try. read more

I've been to my share of sports bars. Maybe our mistake was thinking they would have good or even decent food. I got the white pizza, wife a burger and friends order items too. Wife's burger was COLD when it came. Pizza was meh. Sure it's a sports bar but when the sound is so loud you have to shout to the person 1 foot away, it's too loud. Yes, it a sports bar. But food was below average and shouting for 2 hours isn't fun. Probably won't be back for dinner. read more

We have been to Amherst Pizza & Ale many times. We have always been happy with our meals. Last night we ordered wings and we were extremely disappointed. While the flavor was good the wings were unbelievably tiny. Other diners agreed with us. For $17 we expect 10 good size wings or a few extra because of the small size. The service and ambience were fine. But we will not return for wings. read more

I was only here once, over a decade ago after class got out while I was in college. The same table was in the same place where me and my fellow students and teacher all enjoyed pizza! Coming back again, I had another good experience. It was clean and cozy and service was excellent! Food came out so fast, and drinks stayed filled! My only disappointment was that it was a HUGE menu, but there were no real traditional entrees which I wanted that day. They have sandwiches, salads, wraps, pizza, chicken wingers, burgers, and finger foods galore. I ordered the California club and pub fries and I have 0 complaints with my food. The pub fries are the thinner, battered fries. They also have waffle fries and a variety of other types of loaded fries. There's something for everyone but again, no traditional entrees except maybe the Friday fish fry. It's pretty much all good you eat with your hands. No pasta, steak, chicken etc. (although you can have those meats on a sandwich). read more

I had company from out of town. Some wanted wings, others wanted a famous beer battered fish fry so I recommended this restaurant. To a person, everyone loved the food. They could not believe that the Fish Fry included four sides --- not a choice from four sides. Generous portion of fish and we ordered the wings as an appetizer. We arrived at about 5:45 pm on a Friday night and knew we would have to wait to be seated. That was no problem. We expected it. The service was very good. Management approached us at the bar to apologize for the wait and came to our table as we eere leaving, to thank us again for our patience. Very nice touch. read more

The food is not good and super expensive! The red wine selection is always vintage yesterday. It's been several hours and I'm still gagging. They need to maybe jack the price of a steak and cheese sandwich to $25 to pay the rent? Or really bad nachos (like, really bad) at $20? I dunno but I suggest you go elsewhere. read more

I've been going here for many years. I just went and got a fish fry and two shrimp dinners for the cost of it. The fish is north. The size of it used to be half the size shrimp dinners didn't even get cocktail sauce with them stay away from this place. If I give a lower rating than one I would. read more

Great wing places, terrible wing places and places with interesting origin-stories always make for decent content in a wing review. Places located in a roadside plaza, that are neither wonderful nor terrible, pose a unique challenge in trying to capture the reader's interest with a compelling review. Yet, here we are at Amherst Ale House... let's all just get through this... Location: 3.5 / 5 Not the most relaxing atmosphere as we got seated at a table smack in the middle of a retirement party. Otherwise, there were games on the TVs and the wait staff was pleasant, so there. Presentation: 3 / 5 Wings. On plates. Okay. Ken's Bleu Cheese packets epitomized the experience. Meat: 3.5 / 5 The good ones were fine but overall this was a weak point. There were more boney shards than we care to deal with. Cook: 8 / 10 All hot and a pretty good crisp. The preparation of the char-pit grill was a nice differentiator -- nice to have *something* that stands out. Standard: 9 / 15 Way under-sauced - not enough to completely cover each wing - and way under-spiced. We generally don't need a lot of heat to give a good review but these were bland and boring. Specialty: 7.5 / 10 A better showing here but inconsistent overall. Char pit was universally loved, no wonder they brag about it all over the walls. Mango haberero were a bit slimy, not great. Nashville hot was actually a Carib jerk, not our favorite flavor. Finally hot garlic parm drew wildly mixed reviews. On the long ride home, at least one of the Wing Kings took a nap and who can blame him. A sleepy review for a sleepy experience. Overall 34.5 / 50 read more

Horrible pizza! They got our order wrong 1st off and 2nd they staff's incredibly rude. No flavor on sauce and dough was not cooked. Don't waste your money. read more

North town lunch stop. So many choices on their menu! Prices were on the high side but food was excellent. Stuffed hot pepper add on for $2.50 was nice too! Very nice atmosphere, sports bar for sure. Wish it was closer to home read more

Over priced for the service and food you get. Look elsewhere many better options for the price.

I've had the pizza from here a few times and I think it's great although my wife feels differently. This review isn't about that. We got takeout WINGS from here today, hot, and then spicy garlic Parmesan. They were outstanding. The sauces were great. The hot was a perfect medium, as is typical in the northern suburbs. The spicy garlic Parm was amazing. Great spice. Huge wings (which isn't usually my favorite but these were cooked well). Very good. Only complaint is they put the blue cheese in the wing box, so it was warm, which is gross. We put it in the fridge and used some Rooties. read more

Been here few times over the years including for lunch, dinner, or after work happy hours. Have always had a good time, service is good, and the food has been good every time I've had food. most recently was a few Fridays ago. Got a fish fry which was a generous portion and I liked that it included macaroni salad as one of the sides. read more

After a long wait, it appears we got a take out order that was a no show and it was cold. They reheated the pizza, which was already overcooked and offered to remake the chicken wings. It appeared that they threw our cold chicken wings back in the deep fryer. Bad experience and food was bad. Won't go back. read more

Came here on Friday night for a fish fry and had a great experience. Our waitress was friendly and came over quickly and often to check on us. Drinks and food came out within a short amount of time as well. Love their draft selection, and extensive food menu as well. This is a great place for both lunch and dinner, as well as just drinks with friends. Hope to come back again soon. read more

This place looks larger from the outside - I originally thought it was a regular restaurant. It's a bar, with a take-out counter on the other side of the entrance doors. They also have a large patio. They have plenty of seats and TV's to watch a game. I came here with my family for dinner and we tried a large pepperoni & cheese pizza, wings, and a chicken finger wrap. The pizza you can order by the slice and it is huge. We ordered two slices like that for 3 of us to try. It was extra cheesy and had a ton of pepperoni on it. I love when there is a ton of cheese on the pizza. My brother who can normally eat a large pizza on his own, was only able to eat 3.5 slices of the 8 piece pie. (We did not know my brother was getting pizza when we ordered the slices) The chicken finger wrap I had done hot with no blue cheese. I upgraded the side to have the steak fries. The wrap was full and you could taste everything inside it and the heat on the fingers. The fries were crispy as well. The part I liked the best, was the wings. They were larger than most places and crispy. My parents ordered them Medium and Hot Cajun. The medium had the average taste to them, but the hot Cajun you could definitely taste the heat and spice. If you like that type of sauce definitely order these! read more

We were in the area for a late night bite, so we decided to stop in. We got lucky and the place just cleared out some tables, so we were sat after a quick clean up. Okay, the menu was extensive. Seriously, if you're indecisive, this might not be the place for you. So many options and most of them sounded good. I was easy, my wife and I decided early on we wanted to share a pizza. The rest of the bunch...well, the waitress had to return a couple times until they figured it out. We did get our round of drinks very quickly and a couple pitchers of water too. There were several TV's showing Thursday Night Football, so wherever you sat, you had a perfect view of a TV. Once we finally got our order in, the food came out fairly quickly. I was very happy w/ the pizza. It could have used a little more sauce, despite that, it was still very good. I think everyone else enjoyed their food. Besides our pizza, the table ordered a personal pizza, a stuffed banana pepper quesadilla and a sandwich. Service was good throughout. Our waiter was very attentive. I'd love to get back and sample some other things on the menu. read more

Amherst Pizza and Ale House is a classic bar/restaurant and a great place to watch Sabres and Bills games. Just beware it can get crowded for these Buffalo sports games! They have a very large menu that offers pizza, wings, appetizers, sandwiches, wraps etc. They also gave a generous draft and bottled beer menu. A little something for everyone! You can also do take out like a regular pizzeria. This time around my date and I sat on the patio. My date wanted to try the pizza fries which is something they are known for. Thick steak fries, mozzarella, pepperoni and sides of marinara sauce. Unique and delicious! We went a little overboard on the other dishes since the pizza fries were so filling. I got a tuna melt and my date and I shared the char pit bbq wings. The tuna sandwich was great but maybe a little greasy. The wings were perfectly grilled and with the perfect amount of sauce. I had plenty of leftovers! The service was extremely friendly and attentive. I'd highly recommend this place for wings, sandwiches and a great selection of beer! Definitely also an ideal place to watch Buffalo sports games if you come early to grab a seat. read more

Just went for lunch. Friendly staff! Great beer selection. They're known for their stuffed banana pepper pizza so we ordered that and the buffalo chicken wrap with waffle fries to split. I think the pizza was a little overhyped but still delicious, and the wrap and fries were great too. Will be back! read more

Food was good, the guy who took my order over the phone was a little confused. But overall great pizza

I had a grilled chicken sandwich with chips. The chicken was OK and needs some mayo or other condiment to give it some flavor. I wish they had a fried chicken sandwich on the menu. The service was friendly and the prices were expected for this casual dinning experience. I would try something different next time I'm here. read more

If I could give this place a 0 I would. Customer service is terrible and the food is AWFUL. Usually when you order food and pay ALOT for the food you expect effort to be put into the food. I ordered 20 wing and this is what we got. When I called, the manager couldn't give a shit less to stand by his product and just made an excuse to "being busy". Unreal. I live right down the road and will never be back here again. read more

Chicken finger pizza was ok but get the chicken fingers and fries next time instead. Didn't try the wings

There fast and good I like everything I oder there no bad food here everything is good

Awesome little bar! Friendly attentive staff. If you think you know the best pizza in western New York, you're wrong. But don't ever come here..... I want to be sure there's a table when I walk in. Truly, the pizza is great, pepperoni is cooked to crispy-spicy perfection, ample cheesy goodness, never soggy...just great pizza. Oh, and the wings! Go for the gusto; Crown Royal BBQ Grilled. You won't regret it. In fact, get a double order or you'll be mad that you didn't! ...and again, don't come here. I don't want to have to wait for a table! read more

I would definitely give this place another try. They have a fairly large menu- I love options. The service was also very good. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. We ordered some pizza and wings. We inquired about the personal pizza which our waitress let us know is really a "personal" portion so we ordered a medium. It was the perfect size. We weren't very impressed with the pizza though. It was pretty messy and seemed like it could have been kept in the oven a little longer. We ordered a single order of wings medium and hot garlic parmesan. The wings were a good size and the mediums were good. The hot garlic parm only tasted "hot" and overpowered the garlic parm flavor. This is upsetting because there is an up charge for this flavor too. I would give this place another try and pick something different on the extensive menu. read more

A little on the expensive side, but wings are fabulous and huge portions for salads and sandwiches !

The food was amazing and service was prompt. Great beer selection and l can't wait till my next visit

Ordered 30 wings, waffle fries, and wrap for pick up. Drove 20 minutes each way to get these items. Upon arrival home, no wrap and no blue cheese. Horrible customer service - was very excited to go the extra mile to have their food to only be disappointed by the people who handle the phone and food. I was refunded for the wrap but not having blue cheese for the wings was terrible. Go somewhere else - I won't be back as clearly they don't want my business. read more

Solid wings and pizza. We have enjoyed their food twice when visiting family. Their wings are consistently excellent. Pizza is above average. read more
