What a great experience! We showed up with huge group (20!) on a Friday afternoon and they were very accommodating and we had great service! Everyone loved their food and the view across the river into Canada was beautiful. Great service, clean, good food, and a beautiful view…this place checks all the boxes!

Our first time here and you are first welcomed by the beautiful festive atmosphere, while overlooking the river below. Lisa greeted us and took our order. The food was AMAZING!! It’s not always easy to find a great place that serves both meat and vegan eaters. There were multiple vegan options and I wound up ordering the Umami Bomb and that is exactly what it was! So incredible. I have to now say this is by far my favorite meal out anywhere!! I just wish you were closer to us. My husband ordered the filet mignon and said it was quite delicious. Thank you for putting love into your food, your staff and your environment. It truly shows!

We love Griffon, and visit often— the location couldn’t be better. The place is packed for a reason: they pair a prime location with tasty Americana pub-style fare. As a big fan of the establishment, we still want to lovingly suggest that the tables outside get a weekly good brush or hose down to clear food out of the grooves and slats. We enjoyed our meal on Sunday. With the exception of the cucumber-and-tomato salad, which was not the most appealing (or freshest), it was delicious. The corn fritters are a special yummy dessert/donut-like treat… we recommend them.

My boyfriend and I took a day trip to Niagara falls and stopped in Lewiston for dinner, we were not disappointed! The fried grilled cheese was amazing, but the dip is what sold the show! We both had mocktails that were amazing and our main meals were also amazing! The view added to dinner and we left super full and happy!

The restaurant overall is very nice! It has a cozy and elegant atmosphere. I ordered a mojito and a margarita …. I preferred the mojito . For the appetizer, I had the lobster mac and cheese bisque, which was really good! For the main course, I ordered the beef on weck… it was a bit flavorless. A friend ordered a burger, and it was way more delicious than my dish! The waiter was very attentive!

The food was tasty. I went crazy and got the wings with spicy Peruvian honey butter sauce. You can try it if you’re into that. The atmosphere in there was lively and had a great view of the sunset as well as the Niagara river.

Another great evening – twice this week, so we could try other menu items we missed a few days ago. The char grilled wings and turkey burger had great flavor and came out piping hot. We also loved the chicken caprese and the two perfectly decadent desserts we ordered – bananas foster cheesecake and chocolate peanut butter cake. The only small critique is that there were chicken droppings on the floor around our table and grease on the chairs from previous guests (we wiped off before sitting down). A quick sweep and wipe down of chairs between messy patrons is always appropriate but this was a busy Thursday.
Service and food were excellent as was the beautiful view. Recommend enjoying this place if you are in town.

We stopped by on our way to Artpark. It was our first time at this location. Let me say it’s beautiful and they have a gorgeous spot right on the water. It wasn’t busy so we were seated and helped quickly. We ordered Tokyo burnouts and handmade chicken tenders which came with fries. Tokyo burnouts were good, came with a lot of pork and overall had a nice flavor. It was a decent size and I was full after. My only call out is that the pork was very smoky and it seemed like liquid smoke. Personally not my favorite because it feels very synthetic and then you aren’t really getting a burnt end. My husband loved his chicken fingers. He said they were tasty, a generous portion and he was very happy they were homemade. Griffon does a great job making sure you have a nice experience throughout their locations.
Our server was a doll and got us in and out quickly so we could make it to our concert in time.

Came here for a birthday dinner. We were greeted and seated right away. Our server was very pleasant and personable. After devouring the garlic-butter gnocchi for an appetizer, our meals came right out and were…..amazing. First of all, when my husband raves about a fish dish, it must have been great! So happy we made the drive.

We were looking for a day trip, so we decided to visit Lewiston. We’d heard great things about Griffon Gastropub, and it didn’t disappoint!
The restaurant is located right on the lower Niagara River. It shares a building with Whirlpool Jetboat Tours, which is a great experience in itself.
We were there on a beautiful summer day and sat on the patio overlooking the water. You can dine indoors on the street level or outdoors on the patio below, which has both covered and uncovered seating with umbrellas.
We shared the chicken tenders, and they were incredible. They tasted homemade and came with many different sauce options. The service was also great, with plenty of staff on hand to help.
They also have a stage for live music with a lot of events throughout the summer (pic of the band in this post). I would highly recommend visiting the Griffon Gastropub!
