Need help on a restaurant recommendation. Heading back to Buffalo for the UB Bulls game on Saturday then the Bills on Sunday. It’ll be the first time I’m on the UB campus since I graduated in 94 lol.

Anyway, any recommendations on a good pub/bar in williamsville or Amherst for good buffalo food and would take a reservation for a big group (like 16). Before the 3:30 game so basically a late lunch?

Elmo’s , and get the hot Cajun double dip on the pit.

Certainly you know where DUFFS is??

It's only a half mile from UB

You know, been there since the 40s

White building, big red letters, small parking lot. Just look for Walgreens and it's across the street.

There’s Bar Bill there now as well. If you’re looking to feed people wings that’s probably your best bet but it’ll be tough to accommodate that many.

Just had a party there. Place is huge. Theres an upstairs room too.  Highly recommend

Britesmith brewing is pretty good and can accommodate a big group. Then there’s always the Glen Park Tavern.

Great suggestions right here too!

Only problem with that one is the vibe. Small, no TVs, bar etc but if you’re just looking to pound some wings it’s great!!!

UB Game... right down Millersport out of the UB Complex cross over NForest and on the right in a plaza is Elmos awesome wings....

Northtowns locations I’d recommend for this would be Amherst Ale House, Elmo’s or Audobon North.

 

Not so sure if they do reservations but all large enough to accommodate with Buffalo style eats.

Wingnutz also.

Really can’t beat the location of Wingnutz or Elmo’s to UB. Not sure about Elmo’s, but Wingnutz easily has the room to accommodate 16. I would not bother with Amherst Ale House unless you want to sit in small groups at 3 or 4 different tables.

Go to the Duff's at Eastern Hills Mall on Transit. Close to UB. Large place with tons of sports TVs going. Traditional Duff's wings + more.

[Augie]

Everything is close together and easy to get to in WNY………. if you live in Atlanta.

Olive Garden is a nice little place. Has a really great atmosphere!

A better place is Applebee's, they have it all.  You want pasta, they got it.  Steak, yes.  Seafood, of course.  Burgers, yep.  Salad/vegan, done.  Everything to satisfy everyone in your group.

"good Buffalo food"?

[Bermuda Triangle]

New York Beer Project is maybe 10 minutes down Millersport from UB.  For a group of 16, this might be a good option.  

[Big Turk]

Amherst Ale House has always been good

 

NYBP is also really good if you want to drive a few more minutes.

Just go to Ted’s, Duff’s and Anderson’s….you’ll be fine!

Santoras Pizza , Pub and Grill in Williamsville is plenty big enough imo. You should have no problem accommodating 16, the place is huge and the food is really good imo.

Britesmith is the call for sure. Great options, large enough to accommodate, great view of the roaring creek there, huge beer selection.

Every time i've been to elmos during the day its a ghost town so you can probably mash some tables together.
