Such a wonderful variety of tasty and delightful food! The atmosphere is welcoming, eclectic and very entertaining.

We went to The Gypsy Parlor for the first time for open mic night. I love the decor that's like junk Gypsy, very eclectic, kind of Victorian with cowboy jibes. We sat in the back, not at the bar, and the waitress was still attentive. Usual pub fare on the menu with some twists, bahn mi poutine being one of those. We got fries and chicken wing egg rolls. I will say that the hand cut fries were probably the crispest I've ever had. I usually find hand cut fries soggy, but these were amazing. The drink menu was also eclectic, and they'll make any drink a mocktail, which is good for the DD. Open mic was full of talented weirdos and one excellent duo, so if you're into that scene, check them out! read more

Gypsy Parlor for brunch on Sunday. I really like it there. I've never had a bad meal and it has such a cool vibe. First time for brunch, the staff is always attentive. My Bloody Caesar was perfect with Clamato, a couple of stuffed olives and a large shrimp hanging off the rim. Good menu and I had the pulled pork and sweet potato hash. Nicely seasoned with a fried egg on top. K had the giambotta vegetarian version. We both enjoyed it very much. They had a number of tables going and there is always a few at the bar. The place is a bit eclectic and whoever is doing the kitchen is thoughtful in the preparation and the presentation. This is also a great place to just stop for a drink or two and unwind. read more

Went for a Sunday brunch and got the Huevos Rancheros and was pleasantly surprised by how good and delicious it was. I also had the Gypsy Juice as my beverage, along with some Pastelitos (beef) shared for the table. Those were just OK to me and I've had better elsewhere. My party and I sat outside for a nice day out on the patio and some people watching, and despite being the only ones out there while we were dining, we still had great service from our server. read more

This is a neat place with dining/bar service. Bar is in front and dining in back. Service was excellent and we were well taken care of. My young son liked the Zoltar fortune teller machine and playing around with the electronic darts. Menu has a great selection of eclectic choices. My husband got their version of a trasher plate and my son got the chicken noodle soup while I got their chicken tikka masala plate. We ordered deep fried pickles as an appetizer. Everything was great and plentiful of portions. Well worth it! read more

The atmosphere was fun and cozy, we felt like we stumbled into the seventies in the best way possible! The bartender was kind and friendly, making all of our groups drinks and snacks and bringing them over to where we were and keeping the space clean. We were able to take awesome pictures and have great conversation! read more

Gypsy Parlor - Grasshopper - Bars Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Mediterranean for a midwestern/Buffalo palate. .. cool interior bar but another one of those long bearded staff pseudo bohemian places that really isn't so bohemian..tinge of Marty McGillicuddy Pubdom. There are so many of these places in Buffalo.. in truth yes the cuisine is slightly different but it's a bit of Jack of all trades masters of nothing. I had the Cuban pork sandwich and the spice was totally off on this one. Bland. I like the interior so I'll come back for cocktails. read more

Very odd security guard. Me and my boyfriend walked in and immediately stood near an empty table attempting to scan the area to see if there were any seats. The security guard then immediately walked over and stood almost shoulder to shoulder with my boyfriend just staring at us. We immediately left after. read more

Went to Gypsy Parlor to see my mother, Peggy Farrell, sing with the John Bacon, Trio. Of course the music was great and I've seen her there many times. However, this time I actually ate dinner, as did two women that were at my table. The food is delicious. Anyone who thinks of the Gypsy Parlor as just a bar should start thinking of it as a great restaurant, as well. The menu has a wide selection of dishes from traditional fish fry and steak to Latin, Caribbean and Asian plates. If you're a patron of Left Bank, Hutch's or any other fine restaurant you won't be disappointed. Plus you'll get wonderful food and service without any pretentious snootiness! read more

All the food we had was very good. The Chicken Noodle sou was different in a good way. I had the Creole Fettuccine. Not to spicy, just right. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. My wife had the Cuban Pork which she loved. We also tried their Gypsy Juice. Our young lady server was terrific, however we were there for almost an hour and a half before we got our entrees. This is way too long and unexceptionable. We would love to try other menu items but the chairs are not very comfortable to wait that long for the main course. The interior is very dark making it hard to read the menu, so bring a flashlight or your cell phone. read more

The drinks and staff were really wonderful! The issue was open mic night. The host played a bunch of religious music like "Lord Have Mercy, Christ Have Mercy" and other Christian/Gospel music. There are a lot of non-preachy Christian songs but they went full church choir. The least religious song he played was "Hallelujah" which is also a real bummer of song to play in a bar. It was very awkward and kind of offensive. We are Jewish and left the stage area to hangout at the bar to finish our drinks and leave. We assumed a place with tarot cards everywhere and EDM performers would be non-denominational. read more

Gypsy Parlour will unleash your inner itinerant, make you wish you wore your most eccentric crop top, and have you vibing to the delicious flavours of good food and drinks with wonderful service. The parlor itself is dimly lit but the tinkle lights, decor, and silks provide a welcoming environment that certainly will not let you forget the gypsy here. The menu is simple yet elaborate at the same time, offering a great selection of fushion foods from poutine to tacos, to fried plantains and burgers. There is definitely something for everyone on this menu, but DEFINITELY get some fries! The drink menu also offers a fun selection of mix drinks, local brews, wine, and many more. The signature gypsy juice is a great adult bevvy that will tantalize your taste buds with a tart Shirley temple like taste with notes of sweet syrup and florals. We ordered things to share at the table including small fries (which was a hefty serving), bahn mi poutine, buffalo chicken spring rolls, and plantains. Fries are crispy, perfectly salted, and come in great portion sizes and were also the perfect base for the poutine. WOW this poutine was AMAZING! The flavours of the brisket and cheese were well executed and balanced (this is coming from a Canadian who knows her poutine) and perfectly complimented the gently pickled veg and bahn mi flavours. Not to be forgetton is the MASSIVE buffalo spring rolls... like literally the size of a fist with 2 per a serving, loaded with spicy buffalo chicken, blue cheese chunks and served over beautiful mesclun and a side of blue cheese of course. A lovely addition to the meal was the plantains, they are a sweetly sautéed version, not fried patties like many are use to and complimented the meal perfectly. Such a fun and delicious time with great service and great prices. The 4 items we ordered and 3 different drinks (gypsy juice, local beer, and wine) came to like $50 and we were not disappointed at all and very well fed! Love the gypsy parlor! read more

I love this place, always faithful. We were looking for an early bird dinner on The West Side. Table service on the patio, on a Sunday afternoon was superb. We had The Buffalo Artichoke Bites and The Cuban Pork. Hot, tasty, very satisfying with plenty of leftovers to go. The service here is consistently warm, welcoming and attentive. A great start for a Sunday Night read more

We came in for their monthly Jazz Jam (the first Monday of every month!) and made a reservation beforehand so we had a perfect view of the band playing. The night was very relaxing and we loved listening to everyone play. The food was beyond good! I was not expecting it to be so good from a bar but wow! There was so much flavor in everything. Our friend who ordered the ramen said it was the best he's ever had. 2 of us ordered the shrimp tacos and loved them. I went with the trash plate (I had to! I'm from outside Rochester so it's only right). Although it's not a traditional garbage plate, this is a fancier take on one and the best I've ever had in Buffalo. I would absolutely order it again. They have a good cocktail list and most of them could be made into mocktails so I was able to get myself a blackberry margarita mocktail! Our server was even knowledgeable enough to know that mine would need to be watered down if it was made into a mocktail because it would be too sweet otherwise. I really appreciated him looking out for me! I can't wait to come back for the next Jazz Jam! read more

Definitely a cool vibe and some pretty stellar food. It is good to hang out and soak up the atmosphere and enjoy a great bowl of Ramen or honestly, anything on the menu. The menu is a bit eclectic and that is definitely a good thing. It is like your taste buds can travel the planet and you don't even have to leave town to do so. Definitely a must try when you are in Buffalo. read more

The restaurant receives great reviews for its food and ambience. The ambience part I get, but the food was fair at best. We went for Father's Day brunch. The owner or manager greeted us at the bar. He was very nice. We had a beef Pastillio as an appetizer and that was good. There were two orders of pancakes, which were OK. We had a side order of sausages, which were burnt to a crisp. My son had eggs over hard which were completely burnt. I had eggs Benedict, and the English muffin was charred as well as the Canadian bacon. I couldn't eat it, it was so bitter. The egg on top and the Hollandaise sauce was cooked properly. But the side of potatoes was old and had maybe three slices of red pepper that was thrown in. I'm assuming for a color. Was not good. One son had the Gambotta. It was okay, but a very sparse portion, and only had one piece of toast. The bartenders were covering table service in the dining room, and the bartender was very nice. I asked for a fresh pot of coffee, and was told I had to wait 15-20 minutes until they went through the pot that was already brewed, that he told me he was over 10 minutes old. We were never asked how our food was. I'm not sure I would've said how bad it was, because everyone was so nice, and I wasn't sure there was a real cook in the kitchen that day, who could make it any better. It has great reviews, but I couldn't even give the food a good one. I would come back to have a drink at the bar and probably order finger foods, which I have a feeling are much better. But the food they were putting out on Sunday for brunch was horrible. It was not cheap. I spent almost $80 with tip and we had no drinks other than one cup of coffee. I'm disappointed, as I hoped that it would be great. I tried to support the neighborhood, but I should've gone to a hotel brunch, to hopefully receive better food. read more

I frequent here - pretty much every week so I'm probably partial but I had to review the Crunchwrap that was recently on special. Soooo delicious and loaded with meat and fillings. I've had a lot of food from here, usually wings but I've never had bad food. My other favorite special recently was the birria eggrolls and they were huge! They have new specials every week and a lot of vegan options but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Always good vibes read more

My daughter had ramen was great plenty of noodles and chicken,bean sprouts great broth a friend had buffalo spring roll with shredded spicy chicken and gorgonzola cheese looked like a huge deep fried egg roll! It tasted like buffalo chicken wing dip I thought the gorgonzola was blue cheese because it was tangy and soft and warm nice surprise another friend had Creole fettuccine it had shrimp,andouille sausage,sweet peppers and onions and came with 2 pieces of toasted bread was nice and spicy and the shrimp and sausage was well cook. I would order next time I come in!

It was very good the place is a little out of the mainstream. However, hospitable little gem on the west side at Gant and Potomac. Very comfortable digs and the food is great. read more

It somehow took me a few years to check out Gypsy Parlor, well shame on me! I love the vibe in here - it is full of positive energy with neat decorations and a fairly interesting layout. There's also a cool/funny chandelier with BRAS on it when you walk in HA! Anyway, the place is fairly spacious - there's a large bar in front, a dining room in the back, and there's a neat billiard room on the side! I wish I had a home with a cool room like that... The drink menu is impressive. I had a "New Fashion" since I love bourbon-based drinks and it was excellent. My friend had a margarita which she was happy with (I'm personally not a fan, but to each their own). Meanwhile, the food was a pleasant surprise! We ordered a burger and spicy shrimp tacos, and both were fantastic. I was especially impressed with how tasty and well-cooked the burger was - I am picky. The shrimp tacos were full of flavor and did not taste fishy. Lastly, the staff was kind and attentive the entire time. They were able to accommodate our large group. I'll certainly come here more frequently! read more

I've thought about this steam pot everyday since I saw it on Gypsy's menu 3 weeks ago. Crab legs, mussels, shrimp, corn on the cob and potatoes in a piping hot pot of broth. All proper dining etiquette went out the window once I tasted that broth... I was literally covered in broth lmao. I even dipped the garlic bread in it! If I wasn't so stuffed by the time I ate all of the seafood I would've gladly drank it - THATS how good and flavorful it was. We started with a house salad with Gorgonzola cheese and their house dressing which I'm also now a major fan of. Shoutout to Felicia for being such a dope server/bartender. She remembered that I like my pickle back shots. based on the number of responses I received on my snaps of this gift to us all; I will be back VERY soon for more! 10 million/10 would recommend! Also adding in that I was here 3 weeks ago for our Monday night wings and Gypsy hands down has the best Garlic Parmesan wings I've ever had. It was our friends birthday and they were kind enough to allow us to bring a cake that they hid and surprised him with once we were finished with our meals. Felicia was also our server then and she did an AMAZING job taking care of us. read more

This is a little hidden gem to Buffalo,NY and ya dare not miss it! Make it a part of your trip if visiting for sure! But don't come here for cloth napkins and a bright bright ambience, Anyone can fit in here but it's definitely eccentric so you want to come in with the right expectations LOL Friendly staff 100%, honestly friendly customers 100% if you wanna just shoot the shit with the locals all you have to do is get a table outside ha ha. There's not a time I got here where someone doesn't stop to talk to me as I'm heading out as usually I sit inside LOL. They also have a lot of little events here depending on the season and the evening anything from karaoke to open mic to getting your tarot card read etc. If you've never been first drink choice should of course be there gypsy juice which you can get mixed w your well drink of choice but other fun cocktails as well! The menu consist of all the fun things you'd want to sample from Buffalo as we have an assortment of different eats and they collect them all via their menu and create a version unto themselves, ex including pastellios, spring rolls, buffalo wings, fried pickles, ramen, mussel pot, poutine fries, all my favs, and yes not just pub fare some great meals as well from burgers to steak, ribs, fish fry, such an authentic mix of in general Buffalo favorites. They also have delicious vegan options folks, like their vegan ribs and vegan fried chicken sandwich! They also have specials for the night, full entrees of deliciousness! Crowd wise it can be hoping or totally empty and waiting for you depending on the time of day, me and my friend usually do the early bird time like a granny of 5 o'clockish on a Friday or Saturday night and we usually have full pickings of places to sit. The ambience is dim, that gypsy mystic, but if your coming you know, expect that, and desire it...unless you choose to sit at bar or outdoors where ya can get some light come! That's all I can say in summary!! read more

Hands down, if you're looking for delicious food late at night, The Gypsy Parlor doesn't disappoint. Their kitchen is open until midnight daily and then there is a late night menu from 12a-3am. Everyday there is something going on; from trivia to poetry to open mic night, there's not one day of the week where some form of activity is not planned. I had dinner here at the bar with a friend and really enjoyed my meal. I found the entire menu affordable and accessible. The biggest surprise was how much I enjoyed their ramen. Was it perfect? No, but it was damn good and flavorful that I'll forgive the egg not being soft boiled as is proper in a ramen. The noodles aren't as firm or ramen-y, but the flavor of the broth is a 10/10 and there are generous helpings of pork, mushrooms and ginger flavor as well. The seafood boil looked amazing at $18 and I definitely want to come back for that. The dessert called the Papanasi is a must have. A Romanian donut with cottage cheese, preserves and all the fixings. It is so good! All in all, for late night quality food - The Gypsy Parlor is the place to be. Definitely a cool and funky bar. I recommend it! read more

The Gypsy Parlor is one of my new favorite places. They have a Zoltar! I made my wish but it did not make me young again. What did make me young again is this neighborhood bar complete with pin ball, sofas, and fun vibe. Every single drink I have had is outstanding. Gypsy juice was on special and I had my fair share! It's delicious juice mixed with your liquor of choice and trust me...there is. bad choice. The food is amazing. Highest recommendation to the buffalo chicken egg rolls! I usually order from the special menu if they have one but the regular menu items are great too. Whoever the chef is deserves every award, honestly. If they leave Gypsy parlor I will have no choice but to follow. 2/5/20 How are there not 5 stars on Gypsy Parlor? Every time I go I am continually amazed at the quality and deliciousness of the food. Run, do not walk, to go get some of the yellow curry. It's on the special menu and won't last long. It might even be gone already read more

I went for brunch with my friends and my boyfriend. It's quite an interesting place to say. It's quite dark inside with interesting Gypsy decoration. Chandelier with bra hanging, fortune teller machine. It was my friend's idea to do brunch before tour at Richardson-Olmsted. The place is in the corner and no parking area so just try to find parking around in the neighborhood. My friends ordered breakfast sandwich. I forgot the name of my other friend ordered. My boyfriend and I splitting the naan pizza that was very good. Naan bread topped with chorizo, potatoes, scallions and sunny side up egg and fruits-- strawberries, blackberries and blueberries. Though the food is good but due to the location and the vibe of the restaurant I don't think I'd be back. But I recommend people for the food. read more

Best dessert in all of Buffalo: 3 apple fritters with whipped cream, sliced green apple, cinnamon, and bacon that honestly blew our minds. Hands down - the most delicious thing we have eaten all year. Let's work our way backwards thru the meal: the veggie stuffed sandwich was alright - a bit too olive filled for our taste. The pomegranate chicken bowl was spicy and just what the doctor ordered. The drinks were fantastic too & the atmosphere was uplifting, even during COVID. I'm not sure how I've never been before but I can assure you, we will be back - OFTEN! read more

The food was delicious, the service was amazing and friendly, and the ambiance was fantastic. Felt like an old speakeasy.

The Gypsy Parlor was at the Taste of Diversity festival today even though their brick and mortar store isn't opening until the fall. We ran into people raving about their stuffed bread sandwiches and recommended we try them, "if you eat meat." We stopped by anyway to say hi and see how the plans were going. As we were chatting, he told us he did in fact have vegan option. We were so delighted! The owner, Todd, pulled a foil wrapped oblong packet with "vegan" written across the top. He unwrapped it and sliced off this round Stromboli looking stuffed bread. It had eggplant, artichokes, and kalamata olives. The artichokes weren't from a can or jar; they were the real deal. The stuffed bread was delicious. I am looking forward to seeing this place join the other businesses on Grant. read more

I LOVE this spot. Such a wide variety of food from different places and they hit them all right! This was my second time coming here and both times have been great! The artichoke buffalo bits were also so delicious. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a variety of food. read more
