Thirsty Buffalo, Buffalo, New York Restaurant Details

Food:

New menu...New chef...much improved food. Service, hit and miss. Sad to pay for an expensive IPA and get 1.5" of foam. Repeatedly.

Food:

There security are a bunch of morons. I went outside for some air and came back to the front door where I was greeted by a short fat security guy with black hair. He said that I couldn't come back in. I ask why? And he said that I was associating with a group of blacks in front of theater loft. I walked down that way but in no way was I talking to them and even if I did, who cares. Then im like, let me get my friend and I'll be glad to leave. He wouldn't let, so I said my peace and left. I won't ever go back to this place. There's better places.

Food:

So, let's start here. It was New Years Eve, but no excuse. My 3 friends and I got to Thirsty Buffalo about 1:30 am but sober. We walked in the door and tried to get a drink. My Boyfriend went to the bathroom and returned through the atrium section where a bouncer grabbed him from behind and told him it was time to go. He kept saying it over and over but with no reason. I walked up to him and asked very politely what was going on because we needed to get a ride home and he refused to even look me in the eye. He didn't look quite right himself, but in all fairness he probably had a bad night, but there were people in there who couldn't stand and we are almost 30 and straight sober. I told my other friends what happened and to cancel the drinks the bartender told us it was the owner who had kicked him out. He was definitely on something or hammered drunk himself and I'll NEVER go back to that establishment.

I'm not a child and don't expect to be treated as one. Thanks for my 1st visit to your place Thirsty Buffalo, you just lost a neighborhood patron.

Food:

A very versitile bar. Great as a neighborhood corner bar. Great for younger 20 somethigns on the weekends. Great for Trivia on Tuesdays and Sundays. Great for Sunday Brunch. Great food. I've never had a corner bar, but when I moved to the Elmwood village 2 years ago Thirsty (or TB as its become known as in my circle of friends) became my first. WE are greated with smiles and they are usually pouring our standard pitcher of PBR by the time we sit down. As we prepare to move to north buffalo, having a great bar with great people in such close proximity is going to be one of the biggest downfalls of moving. Thanks for a great couple of years!!
Julie, Katie, Bobbi, Josh, Anne, Romie, Tim and even Jamie; thanks alot for being so awesome these past few years.

Food:

Thirsty Buffalo is the perfect name for this establishment as you'll die of thirst waiting for someone to take your drink order. Made a special trip to come in for Tuesday Trivia. Should have known it was going to be a disaster when I called to ask for directions & the person on the phone had no idea how to get there. Absolutely no direction on where to get forms if you wanted to play trivia. Wanted to get a table so we could get something to eat. Nobody tried to seat us. We got a table on our own. Sat down & waited for someone to take our order. Nobody ever did. We were there for 15 minutes & during that time not one single staff person tried to interact with us to take drink or food order so we walked out. The only reason Thirsty Buffalo gets one star is because Google won't let you post if you don't give any stars.
