Excellent patio on the river. Curly french fries were amazing and the hot dog, fish sandwich and BLT were good portions and tasty. Great place for lunch read more

It seems every time I have gone to lumberjacks I have a special request? We have a large party, we come in late, we need to move seats around and usually this Could be annoying to customers but Sgt Sandy and staff are always so friendly helpful and accommodating. The food is delicous the staff always goes above and beyond and the view at night is beautiful. Please give them a try!!!! read more

Excellent fish sandwich and view ... Prices a bit high , service pretty slow . It's the kind of place you go to when you wanna have a few cold drinks and socialize , not when you are hungry and in a rush to go somewhere else . read more

Was really disappointed. We ordered food and it took 30 minutes for just an Italian sausage and that wasn't even the worst part. They brought everyones food out all at the same time so everyone was waiting just like us. So we had to sit with the horrible sand flies flying in our faces, mouths drinks. It really wasn't relaxing at all. I probably won't go back because there's other places on the water I can relax. read more

I have been here twice. The first time was in June, which was absolutely fantastic, and the second time July 12th, which was terrible. Since my visit in June was so fantastic, I was excited to go back, taking my husband. I have to say I was TOTALLY embarrassed and apologized to him. We ordered the same thing I purchased in June, a BLT sandwich. In June, the sandwich had tons of bacon, along with the perfect amount of lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise. This time there was 1 1/2 pieces of bacon, barely any lettuce, an ok amount of tomatoes and no mayonnaise. I went to the counter, with my sandwich, showed it and asked for more bacon for both. Especially, for the amount we paid for each sandwich. The girl behind the counter seemed embarrassed, asked for more bacon, and brought out another 3 pieces for us to split between our sandwiches. Needless to say we do not recommend and will we ever be going back. read more

We had a 70th birthday party for about 30 people on a Saturday here. I can't say enough about how friendly and accommodating the staff is. From ensuring that we were well taken care of, the quick service and cleanup, we had an amazing time. The staff from the owner Carol, the manager Sgt. Sandra, the cook Nick (who makes the best fish-fry in WNY) and the counter/waitstaff Aud, Molly, Brenna and Alaina, we really appreciated how awesome they were. The food was prepared and prepped perfectly, with every dish being a delight. With a wide variety of dishes on the menu, everyone was able to find something they liked. I heartily recommend them for a casual meal to a family get-together. With a view to die for and awesome food, you'll enjoy making this your next visit. We plan to be back for more! read more

Prices are too high. A hot dog is 7.50? It's go to the counter and order but cloth table cloth pricing for a hot dog. Location is nice but prices are taking advantage of the location. Essentially you pay to sit on the patio. I would not return. read more

Great location right on the water, can pull up and dock. It's a hot dog joint with extra stuff. Foot long wiener with the onion rings is a full meal. They also serve beer and spritzers to keep your buzz going. The service is slow, no two ways about it. When they say 45 minutes it's gonna be 45 minutes. Such is life, go on the patio and sip a cold one while the anticipation builds They are also dog friendly so that's a bonus! read more

It's like being at your aunts lake house with a fantastic view and she threw some crap on the grill. Beautiful views.

I honestly wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. My family and I sat for over an hour waiting for our food, only to be asked after all that time if we even placed an order -- and whether we paid. Are you serious? Not once did anyone come over to check on us or offer any sort of apology. There was absolutely no care or empathy shown. Meanwhile, multiple customers who arrived after us got their food and left, and we were still just sitting there. I'm literally writing this as we're still waiting. This has been beyond frustrating. read more

What a great find! The staff is welcoming and takes time to talk to you. The fish fry is very generous and the foot long hotdogs are so good. The curly fries have a great seasoning on them- no need for salt! The location and view of the River is our new happy place! read more

Finally made it here on a nice long bike ride! Cool place good vibe just feels like summer. They've got a pretty basic menu of bar foods and a great patio with live music and enough parking and seating for plenty. Great prices on drinks 5 dollars for 16 Oz draft is nearly unheard of nowadays! You order your food and pay at the counter and they bring everything to you where you sit my favorite kind of place! Good visit I'd come again read more

Nice place with a great view. Never really had a bad meal here and the burgers are pretty good. It can get crowded during the summer as one would imagine. There have been a few times coming here that they've missed the mark but over all the good experiences outweigh the bad ones. read more

We live in the area and frequent here; you can't beat the view of the river from their indoor or outdoor space and if you want to eat waterside you can. Pull up in your car, boat, or walk in off the biking / walking trail. The food is standard "hot dog stand" meets small kitchen- you can get extras like shaved steak sandwich, crunch rolls, fish fry, fried pickles, etc but also the standard staples. As previously mentioned, majority of the food is grilled or fried so be prepared to select from those two categories. A really nice touch over most places with these menus is the wine / beer / canned malt beverages- you can't beat a hot dog or burger on the water with a cold drink. The food is very reasonably priced, the drinks are just slightly more than your neighborhood bar but less than a full fledged restaurant would be on the water. read more

This might look like a pub/hipster setting but it's more of a road side burger joint on the rivers edge, order at the counter style diner. We left because it wasn't what we were expecting so I can't speak to the food and service. Convenient location! read more

Stopped in for a late afternoon snack on a hot and windy July day. The patio was empty, due to the extreme wind. We sat outside and held on tightly to our things. The view is the best thing about this place. There are a few beers on tap,but an assortment of interesting brews are available in cans in the cooler. My group ordered fried pickles, curly fries, and a burger platter. The food arrived quickly and was delivered to our table. There was a good amount of condiments to choose from, and the malt vinegar was most appreciated. read more

Ran out of Hayburner beer again, that's all we drink. Band has been canceled numerous times. Low end food and usually out of that too ! What a shame we need some good professional American restaurants on the water ! I would say they may be on their way out ? I don't ignore red flags and their are several. Beginning of last summer it was good. read more

This place has been on my list for over a year, and finally the timing worked out for lunch with a friend. We came here on a Sunday for lunch around 12:45; not overly crowded as we hoped. We walked into the restaurant and ordered a cheeseburger and a grilled cheese, two sodas and a seasoned curly fry. The bill came to under $25. We were given cups to use on the bottomless drinks and a number for a waitress to deliver our food to. We found a great table right along the railing by the water; the wind was whipping but it was refreshing so we didn't get too hot in the midday sun. Within 20 minutes our food came out and looked amazing - you can see the kitchen when you order and this food was legit. The grilled cheese was like home, and the burger wasn't frozen but hand packed. The fries were good but I expected more "seasoning." Ehhh it's ok we didn't eat them all, not good for us....right?! We really loved sitting outside and they have a huge outdoor and indoor seating area so definitely room for many to be at to enjoy the scenery. One thing that kinda freaked me out is that they use paper straws, which is fine, but they are right out of the box and not wrapped. So someone could touch five straws just trying to get one - the germ girl in me wanted wrappers. Definitely would recommend and return to - just bring your cash! No credit cards happening here! read more

Lumberjacks Patio Grill - Cheeseburger, seasoned curly fries and a grilled cheese - American Near Me - North Tonawanda, New York

Only come here for the atmosphere! Truly some of the worst food I've ever had. Everything is made in a deep fryer and everything was just a little too well done. The French fries were burnt and had no salt. The toast on the BLT sandwich was burnt. Just don't eat the food. As for the positives, they are located right on the water of the Niagara River. It was a beautiful day out with a nice breeze. Sun was shining. Couldn't have asked for a better place to enjoy a drink. They had a band and the singer was great, playing fun well known songs. Wasn't too loud. read more

Great location right on the water!! Menu very limited- hotdogs hamburgers,chicken sandwich -need salad choices-food fair read more

Visited today as we've heard good things about this place. The food is very good, which was a pleasant surprise. The views are great as well. My only problem was the amount of geese/ bird poop on the tables. read more

Fresh food, cheeseburgers were very fresh and made to order! The outside patio was so nice with the breeze and the sunset! Truly amazing! Very clean, bathrooms were clean. I brought my two littles and they were chilling and dancing outside to the music. The American Flag was flapping in the wind and the locals were absorbing the sunset on the water that was rippling by. The young cashier was super nice and really spoke highly of the banana peppers cheese sticks, and the Buffalo Chicken cheese sticks were really good with Ranch. The hamburger was fresh and made to order and the pickles were of perfect size. For the littles, if you recite the Pledge of Allegiance, you get a little Icecream. I wished I live here, we would visit weekly! The staff came out and checked in on us and spoke a bit with us! The Curley fries were seasoned and the food was plenty. Good portions! If we ever come back, we will definitely visit again! read more

We mainly came here because we were looking for a dog-friendly spot. It was fabulous! We had a great burger and got to try several local beers. We loved the band who interacted with the crowd. We were only in town three nights but went back again! read more

Great place to grab a burger , fish fry or cold beer with a stunning view of the river. Ice cream for kiddos! Reasonably priced. Great live music ! Update: still awesome! Still great music on sundays 5-8! Expanded menu, including house made chips, slaw and potato salad . check out the sunsets : best in town! The patio is dog friendly and so is the staff! If you want a casual place to grab a glass ( or bottle) of wine, or a beer, or shake and some " beach food" this is your spot. Pull up in your boat or wave runner too.. must underrated place in town read more

Great little local place with excellent food and good prices! The fried fish sandwich was amazing along with the curly fries. Perfect spot for good vibes and good food. read more

They had amazing beer, the prices were good too. I highly recommend the fried fish sandwich. We also enjoyed the curly fries they brought the food directly to our table. The servers were very nice and checked and asked multiple times about the food. Being on the water is a very nice setting to enjoy a couple drinks and see light snacks. read more

Stopped there for a quick bite to eat. My husband had the boneless wings which were very reasonable at $4.99. He got the medium which he thought was a little too spicy so next time he would order mild but it was a generous portion and for the price it was good. I got a burger which I wasn't crazy about it wasn't bad but there was not really much flavor. They have a lovely location right on the water and the interior portion is very clean and nice for dining in on those extra hot summer days. I especially liked it they are a dog friendly place and I know I will be back with my two small dogs on a cooler day. read more

I had never been here nor knew anyone who had. What was I waiting for ? Definitely one of the nicest views of the Niagara around. This is just a casual spot that serves burgers, dogs and a very good fish fry. The special was fried bologna but I stuck with the fish. A nice crisp piece came with two sides. The potato salad was delicious and the slaw was tasty and crisp. Nice house made curly Q fries too. Order inside and someone will run it out of your table. There's inside seating but on a nice day sit outside. They do have beer and the gal behind the tap was super and put it in an iced bucket to keep it cold in the hot sun. They also have ice cream and some variety of cookies and sweets. The staff (Marlene maybe) were very accommodating and went the extra mile to make sure everyone was happy. I still can't believe I was never here before but I'm definitely going back! read more

Very nice patio restaurant if you're looking for a place to watch boats or stop for a quick bite off the bike path. I'm giving three stars because I ordered the chicken breast sandwich, and I think for the price, it shouldn't be a "frozen, processed round piece of chicken". Also, order of sweet potato fries was over $6, and was a very small portion. I am not a big eater, and I definitely could of had more. Service was friendly, and food was brought out to our table pretty quickly. The staff even came out and checked on us to see if we needed anything. If I go back, I'd stick to ordering a burger because I was not impressed with the type of chicken they use. Also, sand flies are prevalent but they can't help that. Patio is dog friendly as well. read more

Just found this place this summer and we went 3 times in one month ! I love the grilled chicken salad. I also love the fact that it's on the water and there is a nice size patio overlooking the water ! I go here when I want to have a quick bite in a calm relaxing place during the day. The inside feels very nice with the open setting and big windows let the natural light in and you still can get a view. The only thing is I feel the salad is kind of small for the price standard price for grilled chicken salad but not standard size. However still satisfying and delicious. 4.5 stars ?! read more

Great place!! Food was good. Everyone very friendly with an amazing view of the river. Like being at a family cook out.

Slow to get the food, BUT the food was excellent, perfect weather, polite staff, nice view of the water!! Long as your patient this is a nice low key meal!! read more

Was looking for a different hot dog place and came across Lumberjacks. I never even knew this place was here! The menu is pretty small but had what we were after hot dogs and fries. They also have burgers, chicken sandwich, fish fry, beer and wine. The prices were a bit of a sticker shock as $4.20 for a hot dog is high, but we paid for the patio. The patio has lots of seating and a picture perfect view of the river. The service was friendly and they bring your food out to you so you can enjoy the water longer. All in all a good stop for lunch and the view can't be beat on a beautiful Buffalo day! read more

Who really cares if their menu is limited, everything they do is excellent from the fish dinners to the burgers. Slaw is the perfect addition to the tartar sauce with the fish. Fries are perfectly done and the beer selection, though limited, pairs well with everything the offer. Do I need to say that if the sun is out and the breeze is blowing, you'll make a big mistake not to eat on the deck? Seriously? Buffalo has two months of summer, grab a brew and get on the deck. Live music (Dos Fogies) is the perfect accompaniment to a most excellent evening. read more

We came here on a night when it was windy and rainy...which didn't start until we were already on the way there. It's a cute little burger joint on the river with great views and a nice, spacious patio. It's probably a fantastic spot to grab a bite if you use that marina. The food is pretty typical take out, but I did have a great beer-battered fish fry sandwich. The actual fish fry meal was really good as well. It may not be a great destination spot to travel to specifically, but if you're looking to dine on the water at a casual spot, it's perfect. read more

My family all gathered here for a family reunion. They wanted to show us what a FISH FRY was all about. It was absolutely as amazing as everyone said it was! The fish was super fresh, and the batter was thick, yet light, crispy and flaky (reminded me of my tempura beer batter for fish tacos), and the homemade tartar sauce was on point! The ONION RINGS were awesome too! I think they use a different batter for the onion rings because it was kind of sweet and buttermilk-like. They were so good that they are literally now my favorite onions rings EVER! The FRESH CHIPS were also to die for! The FRENCH FRIES were good too, but we also tried the POTATO SALAD and it wasn't anything to write home about. Stick with the onion rings, chips (not the fries, chips) and fish and you won't be disappointed! The fish sandwich looked fabulous! Oh, and they have Anderson's ice cream too. We all sampled the CAKE BATTER ICE CREAM, and OMG was it to die for! That was my first time having an Anderson's ice cream. I love how their cake batter has chocolate cake in it. YUM! The one thing they could improve on: Make their ranch salad dressing from scratch! It really makes all the difference (for me, a good ranch dressing is totally necessary if someone serves fried foods), and it's really easy to make! read more
