    Bartender was fast & efficient, but not a friendly, inviting atmosphere if you're not a regular. Bar room could use some serious updating.

    Better Days is a somewhat dingy bar that serves cheap food and drinks…read more There are two other locations with bars on Main Street -- Hamar's (total dive) and Beef Haus (more of a restaurant than bar). Better Days is the "middle ground" between those two. I had their wings, which were good (but not great for this region), and are deep-fried in front of you at the bar by the bartenders. There are a variety of different sauces to choose from, I went traditional with the "hot" sauce, which was a standard buffalo sauce. Wings didn't crisp up as much as I generally prefer them, but the sauce was good. No breading, thankfully. I believe breaded wings are verboten in western NY. The service was a bit spotty, e.g. bartenders forgot to provide me with napkins, and were generally distracted, but it was a busy Thursday evening, so maybe they deserve a little slack? No way! Bad bartending grates on me. If you're a beer-pouring, shot-slinging bartender type who is not able to mix decent cocktails, you should at least be on-point with service. One other thing about this place that annoyed me were the low/short bar-stools that were not high enough for a man of average height to eat off of the bar top. I literally was eating my basket of wings off of my lap. Go to Better Days and try to eat something at the bar, and you'll see what I'm talking about. What other options does someone have who is visiting Wellsville? If you've already tried Beef Haus, you're SOL. This is why I don't think that a visit to Better Days is a bad idea if you're in Wellsville for more than a day. If nothing else, it's an affordable dining and drinking option.

    I just moved away from Wellsville, and man am I gonna miss this place!…read more Great Pub Grub, cheap drinks, and an eclectic assortment of regulars. If you don't come out of Better Days with a good story to tell your friends, you've done something wrong.

    I was excited to try this place just based upon what I had reach online from reviews and looking…read moreover the menu. It's an open table/communal table concept with a very long table inside you sit at, a bar, and just a few two-top tables that are more private. Our waitress was very nice and competent. We liked her a lot and the vibes were just easy going and friendly. We had a few things on the menu that looked good when we walked in and some plans - we thought we were probably going to for sure try the Beer Brisket Sandwich and or the Gyro. In the end we got: -two orders of Brisket Tacos with dipping sauce and greens (special that night) - soooooo good! -side of kale slaw - the rice wine vinaigrette was so good I could've just drank it! -Baked Amish Pretzel - topped with bacon and cheese. Loved this! My friend has a soy allergy - which can be tough at a restaurant, but our waitress was awesome and the whole staff were pros. She checked things out and promptly with the chef and came back to tell her what the chef recommended. 10 out of 10 - our favorite meal in the Finger Lakes by far. Fair prices and on the historic Market Street in a stellar location for shopping, walking, and just enjoying yourself.

    Name is the only thing I'm not a fan of, ha!! The pepito sandwich and the gatsby are incredible, as…read morewell as the asian rice. Really great variety. Neat they have board games too...would be a good first date spot. Service is always really wonderful, from the bar staff to the servers if you're at the long table.
