Passing thru Buffalo on way to VT from OH and found this gem of a restaurant not far from I-90. Definitely worth the extra five minutes to get there. Great food, service and atmosphere. It was nice to sit outside near the Ellicott River.

This is my first time trying Britesmith Brewery, and I will definitely be back! I got a side Cesar salad and a white pizza with the dream sour beer. So good!! My server, Lindsey, is the sweetest person and so very helpful and attentive!

Great place to come for drinks or for food. Absolutely delicious pretzels and cheese. We also got the margarita pizza, which was really good too. It was packed on Thursday for Music on Main so there was a bit of a wait to get a table bit they notify you via text when it's ready. There was no issue getting drinks at the bar, even with it being so crowded. The food and drinks are quite pricy but it is to be expected in Williamsville. Our server and the manager were both awesome and added to us really enjoying our time here. 100% recommend.

We had a great time here. We lucked out and had a beautiful evening to sit on the back porch by the creek and...I mean how do you beat that amazing vibe?! The place is well designed to take advantage of the view of the creek and landscapes. I’m an IPA lover and their two IPA’s were hazy, which I do not love. Food was good. Go here for fun atmosphere and good food !

Arrived around 6 on a Thursday and it was BUSY! The outside area had a 30 minute wait however inside was relatively empty. Out server was great throughout and the food came quick and was yummy. I had the mushroom pizza and it was sooo tasty and cooked to perfection! I really enjoyed their sour beer. Would def come back!

Amazing service from Amy and Lindsey They were very understanding when we had to move inside when it got colder than expected. Beautiful atmosphere by the water. My mom somehow had never had a smash burger before and she was impressed! She can also be a little difficult sometimes, but they handled her antics in full stride Drinks and food were so good, I can't wait to go back and try every pizza

Great food, great prices, great staff. Right by Glenn Falls, nice area to walk around. The pizza was a nice level of gourmet and the elote dip is....slightly life changing in the best way if you like elote. The beer selection is well done, local and guest beer options. Wonderful atmosphere. Parking kinda sucks in Williamsville in general so beware. I will be back. Definitely highly recommend!

Great local brewing company. My friend and I sat on the patio enjoying the creek views. The patio had heat lamps, which made it nice and toasty. It was a very clean place. My friend and I split The Fried Chicken Sandwich with fries, The Ricotta Pizza, and The Waldorf Salad. I also had The Walk The Dog Beer. Everything was delicious. However, I would say the chicken sandwich and the beer were my absolute favorites. The service was friendly and attentive.
