    Beer and receipt
    Denise L.

    Eleven IPA's on tap! Eleven, seriously? First time I visited I wasn't "as" impressed. We got a triple and a quadruple. Who's driving home??! They were both really, really good. Food menu not much to speak of, but it's a brewery not a restaurant. We'll eat somewhere else. Inside plenty of room to sit. Games and pinball and a beer cooler for to go pick up. Parking lot for a bunch of different places so parking might be tough. We got the last spot.

    Large bar and lots of seating. Very friendly staff. My husband liked his beer choices and we shared a grilled cheese and hot pretzels. They were both very tasty. Street parking

    My friends and I enjoy a good brewery and samplings. Unfortunately, we are just not fans of Mortalis. Both locations just don't hit the mark. The beers are ok, but the service in both locations are lacking. My husband and I have been to the Avon location and completely ignored when sitting at the bar. We wanted to give Buffalo a chance. I didn't want to influence our friends' opinion. Our friends commented on how the bartender was unfriendly and acted like he didn't want to pour beers. Maybe it's part of their brand? The decor and facility it cool, clean, and welcoming.

    Stopped for a couple drinks. They have plenty of draft options and everything was delicious. We had a couple sours and IPAs. It was busy but not insane and the service was great!

    Hands down the best craft beer in Buffalo if not the whole state of New York ! Having visited over 400 different breweries in 20 years I know good beer. Mortalis stouts are absolutely amazing in fact every beer we tried was close to a 4.5 out of 5 on Untapped beer app. in my opinion. Great place for craft beer enthusiasts.

    Mead is made at Illumination meadery

    We came here for the first time on a Saturday afternoon in July. One of the bartenders, Alden, was helpful and let us try some samples of the mead. She was kind, friendly and informative. The mead that we had was very good. Unfortunately, once Alden left the bar to stock the cooler, the other two bartenders ignored us, even though there weren't many other people sitting at the bar. We would have liked to stay since we enjoyed the mead, but decided to go elsewhere since it was difficult to get any service.

    Sour, stout and IPA fans come here and come here fast. This new location has an impressive tap list and to go offering. The ambiance is casual, with TBS on the sound system and wedding crashers playing on the tvs. You're bound to have a great time coming here solo or meeting up with friends. They have some board games available and outlets under the bar if you need to charge your phone or you want to bring your laptop to the bar top. Parking is also easy to find. We live down in Erie but every time we're in Buffalo we make sure to come here. The chef and beer tenders are always friendly and easy to chat with. Alden's been here every time we swing by and without knowing us she's always made our experience a little extra special or more enjoyable. Thanks for everything mortalis crew!

    Two stouts (5oz pours)

    Came here on a brew tour and was hoping to get a flight but they don't do the those, so I got two, half pours of two stouts. I normally enjoy stouts but theirs were way too rich for me. I also found it unusual that they serve their beers in stemless wine glasses. Their drink menu consisted of several stouts, sours, IPAs, and a page of meads. The atmosphere here is great though! It's spacious with lots of tables, but they could use more restrooms. They also have a food menu. My group shared loaded nachos and I appreciated that they layered the toppings so almost all the chips had toppings on them! Overall, I'd recommend for the atmosphere and a beer, but would caution about ordering a full glass of their stouts without trying it first.

    Wanted to love this place, but the service fell short. My friend and I went for our first time and the bearded male bartender just kept awkwardly staring at us without saying anything but won't take our order. Finally he says coldly we have to order at the register by the middle of the bar. Which feels weird by the way if you're going to be sitting at the bar? Anyway, upon ordering we didn't realize initially they have multiple size pour options and the man taking our order is immediately angry we didn't specify instead of just asking us what size. The Beer wasn't worth that negative social interaction and we left shortly after.

    We went here for lunch/ beer tasting close to noon. We sat at the bar and the guy working was super nice and super informative. We'd had their beer in cans at The Beer Keep so we knew a little about them. They don't do flights but you can get half pours which we liked, we split 4 half pours. Three sours and one IPA. Their sours are nicely fruited and delicious. My favorite was the fillings are mutual. Tasted like grape deliciousness haha. We also got the pretzels which were soft, warm and salty. They came with mustard and cheese sauce-very good. And split a Ruben sandwich it was good I did want a little more meat on it but all around pretty good. The pickles on the side were sooo good. Oh we also tried one of the meads too. They had at least 7 different meads on tap. Unique and cool to have other choices. We got a 2oz pour which was nice for the ability to try a few instead of just one big glass. Anyways highly recommend !

    Had the strawberry rhubarb pie series sour. Wasn't too sour, had good fruit flavor. Plenty of seating.

    First time here finally! Went on a Saturday around Noon. Loved sitting at the bar and getting a flight. We went on May the 4th which was super fun for Star Wars day! They had movies playing, special beers, black sparkly streamers on the door - super fun! Haven't tried any food yet, but looking forward to it the next time I go. It was bigger inside than I thought. Lots of seating, modern space, good vibes. The hydra blue milk and mangolorian IPA were such a treat! We got cans from the fridge to go.

    First time here, admittedly I did not have food but love the space and was fortunate to catch the Fidens drop, so got to take beer home plus do a Fidens flight. It's a tough beer to come by so appreciate they did this.

Hubs and I came for dinner with four friends a couple weeks back and though it was a splurge, I have no regrets. Everything I had was delicious. We had: Focaccia Roasted Carrots Wagyu strip Rhubarb Panna Cotta Pineapple Pavlova I also had a Freakin' Beacon mocktail. Everything was SO GOOD. That focaccia was like no other focaccia I'd ever had but was delicious; crisp on the outside, soft on the inside. The steak (med rare) was perfect to me, hubs thought it was a tiny bit too rare for him. It was super tender and easy to eat, perfect char. I couldn't eat the chimmichurri it came with as it has Thai basil (not usual in chimmichurri, but I'm allergic, and the server was very good about asking about allergies) but honestly, it didn't need it. That steak stood on its own. Both desserts were delicious, but to my surprise I think the pavlova was even better than the panna cotta (and I love panna cotta). The portions were very generous and I was pretty stuffed by the time I got home. Our portion of the bill was over $200 (hubs also had some cocktails and the steak alone was almost $90) but it was so good, we'll want to come back when we're in town for sure.

    We came for the Halloween movie night. It was a GREAT…read moreprice... $10 for a movie, a beer, a glass, and popcorn. However, there was no popcorn, so they gave us some free nacho appetizers instead to share amongst everyone participating. They played the movie outside on their patio with a projector and blow up screen, which I wish it was advertised ahead of time that it was outside, so that we could be more prepared for the chilly weather. It also would have been better if they had their fire pit on and/or the space heater for those unprepared folks like us. Not your average Nachos 9/10 The corn tortilla chips were amazing by themselves. The queso, I was very surprised to taste homemade beer cheese (I didn't look at the menu before), it was really good and a little went a long way on those chips. I just wish the chips at the bottom had a teeeeny bit more. The only other topping was some shredded cheese. Salsa and sour cream were on the side, the salsa was good also.

    CBW is close to five stars but not quite there yet for me…read more The outdoor space is beautiful, with a brick fireplace and nicely spaced-out seating, and I'll certainly be back to spend some time on it. I like the building overall and the split-level upstairs arcade makes it feel that you're exploring different rooms, which is entertaining, even if some of the pinball games were out of order. The cartoon-and-movie-themed wall art adds to the fun, funky vibe. I've had friendly interactions with the staff both times that I've been, and I love that they sample the beers before having you commit to a pint. My thing is that the beer is all solid, but I've never had one that's among my favorites. This is really more a description of my palate than a knock on their brewers--everything seems true-to-style and the prices are reasonable, but something's just not doing it for me. But Community Beer Works is doing a lot right, and I've only scratched the surface of the veg-friendly menu, so I'll likely be back to give some things a try. Nice dogs are welcome on the patio. Some off-street parking is available across the street.
