A really good meal here tonight! Staff was friendly bustling and attentive. The atmosphere was really nice. Not rowdy or anything. Family friendly and even a kids menu (Mini Bike) Hubby and I got wraps. The handout fries were really good. Table next to us has prime rib and that looked delish! The table behind us had wings and those looked great. We like this place and will be back. We enjoyed the kids placemats with games and the crayons. read more

We haven't been to Knuckleheads in quite awhile. Another place we keep saying we are going to go to but hasn't happened. We recently went to a Wing War/challenge where we sampled wings from Knuckleheads. That was destiny calling telling us we had to go. The other night we got something out for dinner and we weren't feeling it and we used the excuse it wasn't defrosted so what better excuse.... We order a hamburger and pulled pork. The hamburger was cooked to perfection. Was juicy and really good. The pulled pork was OK but to be fair I have had some of the best southern and western BBQ so my bar is pretty high. The wings were amazing !!! crispy and juicy. The medium buffalo sauce was perfect. They do have a wing night on Wednesday nights, so know we will be back next time on a Wednesday for their signature wings at 99 cents each. They have specials almost every night so check them out on facebook or their chalkboard. The night we went was an 80's night which all who know me know I am an 80's girl. Had I know I would have dressed for the occasion. This is a very rustic like bar/ restaurant but the food is good and comes highly recommended. read more

For a cozy local restaurant this place checked all the boxes. Clean, great decor, good service. We had a large(r) party and I know that can sometimes lead to delays, but overall for a first visit I'm was relatively impressed with how quickly things came out. Everyone said their food was good, the only negatives is the beef and gravy was a touch cold, and the steak sandwich was a little bland/ tough steak. But a good trip overall and I would definitely consider a return visit. read more

My husband and I were in town to see our son play with the Utica Bluesox. We stopped here for dinner and it was amazing. We had sweet chili wings which were some of the best wings I ever had. So meaty and so fresh. We also got burgers which were excellent. Reminded me of old school diner burgers w that char grilled taste. Will def go back if we are ever in town again. The service was also excellent...very attentive and very friendly. read more

I stopped while passing by on a very busy Friday night. I was seated immediately and my server came by right after. I chose a beer battered fish sandwich that came with fries and Cole slaw. As I sat in the expanded dining room more and more people came in. (There is also a bar as well as booth seating in the bar area) There was a party of 8-9 already in the dining room as well as several tables of 3-4 people. Another party of 9 was waiting and they worked to get tables arranged to accommodate them. My food came out very quickly and was fresh and hot. The fish was very tasty and flaky, the french fires crisp and the Cole slaw crispy. Condiments are available on the table and include salt, pepper, ketchup, A1 as well as regular and green Tabasco sauces. A man I assumed to be the manager/owner was very active in talking with and taking care of diners and stopped by my table as well to make sure my food was good and I was all set. He took a moment to chat despite the busyness and I observed him helping the waitstaff as well. I had a great meal and a beer for $27 including tip. From the outside it may look a bit plain but once inside you'll be so happy you stopped!! read more

Rustic and food was good. Enjoyed our time there. Waitress was very friendly and accomodating.

Nikki gets 5 stars she was great waitress and kept up with our large table of 8 with filled beers and hot wings! Overall this is a need to go spot - especially on Thursday which is their wing night. The selection of beer on tap and whiskey is impressive especially their various flavor of wing sauce. Their signature "everything sauce" has a Buffalo and blue cheese base along with some other secret ingredients. Great place to go if you in the area. Lastly you have the option to get your wings "extra crispy" which I highly recommend! read more

Not a fan. Not sure what I was hoping for, but this wasn't it. I was visiting from out of town and looking for a place to dine solo. I generally like to visit local places when I travel. Bar was fine. Bartenders and other employees were all perfectly nice. Clientele at the bar at dinner time was a little rough, including a fair amount of pointless swearing. Food was pretty bad. I had a Reuben sandwich special that was not good. I left in 40 minutes. read more

Awesome bbq, esp the bbback ribs!! Truly a bar though esp if you want a booth so lots of swearing unfortunately not too family firefly l friendly.... still the food was delicious! read more

Knuckleheads Brewhouse - a wooden booth with benches and tables - Sports Bars Near Me - Westmoreland, New York

In Utica visiting family and we found this incredible tavern with possibly the best 'sports bar food' we've ever eaten. Loved the vibe on entering, elevated sports bar with a funky Adirondack feel. They have a great outdoor seating area to enjoy on the beautiful summer days of Upstate New York. They have a full bar and the kind of mixed drinks you would find in upscale restaurants. But the real story here is the food. We went with a large party and lots of different dishes were ordered. I'll start with mine - the buffalo haddock wrap. I wish I could have shipped 10 of them to Laudy, it was that amazing. The potato salad is house-made, tangy, a little crunchy and delicious. The pizza: We ordered a traditional upside down pizza and one with a cauliflower crust. Both pizzas were the best we'd ever had in all of NY state and we used to live in Brooklyn and worked in Manhattan so we know good pizza. If you don't like cauliflower crust but are trying to avoid carbs, you would NEVER know the crust was cauliflower. Can't emphasize this enough: If you go to Knuckleheads and order one thing, order the pizza! It's outstanding. We're back in Laudy and are craving this pizza. Finally, restaurants all across the country are understaffed and struggling to find reliable workers, front and back of house. This place is no exception but the service was attentive, super friendly and we didn't wait long for our food at all. Do yourselves a favor, take a drive to the country and check this place out! And did I mention the house made cakes and pies??? read more

Our waitress Melanie was excellent - she was personal and attentive. The food came out quick and was delicious. We had wings (hot and mild) - both good. Everyone enjoyed their meals (The Chief, Brisket sandwich, heart attack and cheeseburger). read more

I tried coming here several times. It always seems like they're going out of their way to ignore me. I know several people who have said the same thing. read more

Good pub food and beers on tap. Lively atmosphere with friendly staff. Parking area is a bit tight.

When I think of Brewhouse, I think of microbrew. Not the case here but a decent local tavern. The seasonal Yule Mule drink was good (they could buy more than 1 copper mug if offering that). The slider trio was good but "southern fried chicken" was a chicken tender on a bun. The brisket was very good. Fries looked fresh cut which was a plus. They seem to make fancy names for not fancy food. Not necessary. It's local, it's casual and I would go back due to convenience. read more

Beer was cold. I ordered a triple special: Pulled pork ,ham bacon and Swiss cheese. Yummy. Food Alyssa served was quick and hot. I love perky waitresses. Will return. read more

I have ordered the BBQ on 3 separate occasions, and I have come to the conclusion that the ribs are Microwaved before serving ( i think they think we can't tell but it's killing your flavor, and the rest of it is just dry or underwhelming, I wouldn't consider it true barbecue, I feel like they meant well at first but it's just lazy bbq not what you would normally get at a real place for the same amount of money. I had to let the waitress know the Coleslaw was way past the date, but I was given a free beer for the trouble very nice of her. It's a great place for beer and fried food though so far that is fine. Overall Clean, self-seating, and Friendly staff. If I were to come back Id like to see some more care in the freshness of the food. read more

Went to knuckleheads for a Monday dinner after the long day as it was the restaurant on our way home from Rome. Except for the honey Dijon chicken wings, I ordered the rib combo with bourbon glazed chicken. A big plate but they did not ask me what sides I liked. The meat cooked perfectly, both ribs and chicken are juicy and tender. However, flavors are not quite on point. The bourbon glaze was too sweet and alcoholic, overpowering the tender chicken while there was not much other flavor to balance the taste. I scraped the glaze off and dip them into blue cheese sauce to finish it. The rib cooked well but again the flavor was not quite into the meat. The coleslaw was refreshing and light enough to help me eat the dish. It is not with a lot of mayo. That is probably the best element on the plate. Sir flower had a chief sandwich. Not sure about the flavor but it was big and the bread and meat ratio was a bit off balance. Honey Dijon wings are a bit too sweet. All in all, not bad. #foodporn #thisisutica #uticanyfood #bbqrib #bourbonglazedchicken #grilledfood read more

Found this place through YELP and were not disappointed. Very clean and welcoming place with a pretty big menu. Our server Carrie was very friendly and spot on with the whole transaction. I had the trio of sliders and companion had the turkey club-we both thought our meals were great. Too early to imbibe but the selection looked great as well! Do yourself a favor and don't stop at the rest areas near here - get off at the Westmoreland exit and travel the less than two miles it takes to get to Knuckleheads. read more

Cute little place in a small town. Good place to go for drinks and a bite to eat. Have been here twice now and always a good time. They have a good selection of food & plenty of brews on tap to choose from along with a full bar. Kind of disappointing the restaurant is called "brew house " coming here I thought they would maybe possibly --- brew their own beers? - sadly mistaken. In door and outdoor seating. Shout out to Katie our server yesterday absolutely awesome service! read more

Good bar and grill. We stopped in thinking it was a brewery, which it is not, but we liked it. It's about 50/50 split bar and grill, with the bar side being a bit noisy and that carries throughout. We mainly wanted to try a beer and grab a snack. The beer selection was ok, although seemed a little short on craft (micro) brews. I kind of feel if you are a "brew pub" the beer menu should be more craft (micro) brew-centric. Not sure that's even a real word, but you get the point. Our group shared a couple of apps and they were very good. We tried the jalepeno poppers and pretzels with beer cheese. Both were winners! Service was good, place was clean, overall a good experience but nothing to rave about. It's probably closer to 3.5 stars, but the lack of a large craft brew selection was a big hit on my overall rating. read more

Service was good. Brisket was shredded and chewy and salty. Ribs were simply awful and likely microwaved. Wings were undercooked.

Upside pizza is to die for.. wanted a picture of the full pie, but couldn't open my camera before the crew started grabbing slices. On par with any pizzeria in the area, and this is a dive bar. Have t been this pleasantly surprised in a long time. The new owners heard the communities cries, and responded above anyone's expectations. Also they do have WiFi. read more

2nd time here in 3 weeks. Portions are huge, place is clean and service is spot on. Had half rack ribs for lunch first time there they were awesome and the " Big Chief " steak sandwich today. Both were exceptional. Sorry I didn't take pictures. It's in the middle of the countryside in small town America which makes it even better. Staff and other diners are as friendly as you'll find. I travel for my job and this is my place when passing through. Go hungry because when they bring your food you'll about "&;8 when you see the portion size. I'll be back soon. read more

We stopped in while driving home. fun cabin pub. French dip was great and the pretzel sticks terrific. Was worth the trip.

We stopped for lunch and everything we ordered was delicious. French dip, tomato basil soup, burgers and I had the Riviera Salad. Everything was so good. Such a great spot with amazing food and wonderful service! Would highly recommend. read more

Great local hangout. Hometown vibe. Good size portions for reasonable prices. The food was fresh and flavorful. Lots to choose from. Chicken wings are classic NY style, the way they were intended to be. The lemon blueberry cake and chocolate sandwich cookie cake were delish. Great place for happy hour or a family dinner... read more

Nice menu for a small mainstreet American restaurant. Very homey inside and friendly. Try the smoked Prime Rib Special on Saturday!

Best wings in the area bar none! The hot wings are actually hot, yes they can take a while to come out of the kitchen but they are always prefect and worth the wait, and all the flavors are worth trying (I have!) So why the 3 stars? You guys seriously need to 'develop' your wait staff. There are several servers that are top notch and I'm sure you know who they are, and you should... the others are none existent, clueless and completely untrained. You know a few simply walk by's, how is everything? Can I get you anything? Another drink? (It is a bar after all) Other than that I will be back and just hope my favorite servers are on duty. Long overdue update: service is now top notch as is there food! Update: read more
