Buffalo RiverWorks

This is probably the best venue I've been to for a concert, and I've been to countless concerts in Buffalo/Rochester over the years. We just saw AFI and I was fully prepared to stand for the show, which is expected but sucks when you're getting old. I was pleasantly surprised to see there was seating both downstairs and upstairs, as well as bars and bathrooms on both levels. You can even step outside to smoke on both levels. We didn't have to wait in any kind of line for the drinks or bathroom at any point. So if you need to sit, this is a huge plus. We got there after doors opened but before the opener went on, and seats filled up after that so don't wait too long, it's first come first served. Lots of free parking on site. The sound was good too. Just a really comfortable place to see a show.

Came here for the Buffalo River Outdoor Classic Hockey Tournament. This was an experience to definitely come by. We had a lot of fun watching all our games outdoors in the bitter cold but it was worth it. Kids had fun. Watched some really good hockey played by all the teams that came out. Would definitely come back again.

Top notch venue. I’ve seen multiple shows, most recently kublai khan tx at the river works. Perfect size for a club show. Multiple bar options, great sound, and excellent sitting area in the back of the venue.

We held a holiday work event with our staff at Ales & Axes. It was a fantastic time. We did 2 hours of axe throwing and the Tailgating food package. The staff were very kind, patient and knowledgeable with throwing techniques...observing how we were throwing and offering tips for better accuracy. They did little tournaments/competitions that were fun. The bar/seating area was very spacious compared to other axe throwing venues. Drinks and food were great. A great atmosphere.

We had dinner here last night and it was phenomenal! The beer was delicious and the food was excellent. The tots with cheese curds, lobster bisque, and crab meat is something I will remember for a loooong time, it was absolutely amazing. The fish fry and pizzas were also something of the best I’ve had. Highly recommend!
