Brickyard Pub & BBQ

Busy as ever, this place always seemed packed to the brim with patrons at the bar and in the dining area. We managed to get one of the last open tables in the dining area.

This is a very reliable restaurant and I don’t believe we’ve ever had a bad meal here; while the BBQ is not the end all, awards winning you might find at a venue solely dedicated to the craft, it is really tasty BBQ for a restaurant that has a roaring bar trade as well.

Both of our meals were enjoyable, I opted for the brisket combo and my spouse for the Turkey BLT. Everything was served hot, and we did our best to eat the generous portions.

My only demerit is how loud the dining area gets with the bar being over packed; I’m all for a full bar but when the college aged kids are 4-5 deep in places, the families and dining patrons have to yell to speak while trying to eat a meal. I certainly know to expect this so I don’t plan to catch up with friends here or share long stories, but don’t dine here if you have a headache.

Their beers were great. I ordered the brisket sandwich and wasn't all that impressed. It was pretty packed for a Thursday afternoon and they were slightly short staffed, but they did an excellent job keeping up with everyone. I'd go back and give them a second chance when in the area.

Location, Location, Location! The restaurant is in the Village of Lewiston and less than a mile walk from Artpark where it makes it a perfect place to have a post-hike beer. My hiking group stopped in for lunch after a 3-mile hike. Service was efficient and courteous. I ordered the classic burger and it’s very good.

My husband & I stopped here because our friend that is local recommended it to us when we visited Niagara Falls. It was very very good! We’ve been to many BBQs & Pubs, but this was exceptional. Great service, awesome comfort food, a great chocolate cake, pleasant atmosphere, & one of the cleanest & nicest bathrooms I’ve been in. We both had a wonderful time & 100% recommended!! OH & the Mac & cheese…YUM!
