    Steak Hoagie with chips
    Russell W.

    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.

    Chicken Fingers - Garlic Parm
    Kimberley A.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Margherita Pizza

    Ordered a Margherita Pizza to go (Medium 14"). They charged $26 plus tax. Was absolutely ridiculous and it was terrible. Do not bother ... maybe other pizza is better but $26 for what?

    California club and pub fries

    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).

    There huge fish fry

    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.

    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

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

    Mother's Day brunch- we didn't have reservations but were able to be accommodated at the bar…read more Service was attentive and relatively quick based on the crowd. Food was good. The price was a bit more than I thought it was worth for the breakfast platter and shrimp & rice (not quite Hawaiian fried but good). Except for the lobster Mac & cheese. Real huge lobster chunks- large portion. Mom was happy so that's what mattered! Loud, family friendly location. Lots of seating.

    My husband and I just ate here for an early Valentine's lunch. Michelle was a great waitress but…read morethat's where the positivity stopped. As we've eaten here before, we got the nachos and chicken Mac and cheese. The nachos were the saddest looking thing we've ever seen. No toppings on half of them. When we brought it to Michelle's attention, she offered to bring us more (pico, cheese and beans). She did say portion sizes have changed according to the kitchen-okay so $14 for less food, got it. But at least she tried. Then the mac and cheese came out. This couldn't be disappointing, right? Well. Despite us ordering the EXACT same thing, my husbands portion was literally double the size of mine!! It was like I had the kids version. I'm Not sure if Ray Charles was in charge of portion control but it was such a disappointment and we will not be back. $51 plus tip for a terrible valentines meal. Thank you, Michelle , for trying your best. NYBP, do better.

    Their holiday mimosa flights can be hit or miss relative to marketing, but the food is always solid. No more Cali bennies though. Sad.
