Spotted Octopus Brewing Co.

Fantastic local brewery with an incredible staff and management. Brewer / owner Dominic goes out of his way to explain, teach and speak with individuals about their beers. Love the concept of a local brewery that is trying new things that are innovative and unique. An experience you will only get at a small scale brewery! Plan to return any time I’m in town! Thanks Dominic!

Great selection of tasty beers, extremely friendly atmosphere, and a lovely two-storey space to chill out and hang out! Plus, the pub is in the close vicinity of a very interesting native American-owned K Gallery. Don't miss any of the two places!

Good selection of styles. I liked the barrel aged and quad the most. Small little tasting room but thematic with a cool mascot and flight boards. The bartender (possibly owner) was very friendly and helpful. We don't live in the area, so we typically like to try new places when we get to Buffalo, but we will definitely be back here.

Wonderful, unique and friendly brewery in a historic old brick building in downtown Buffalo. Nice selection of their own beers plus from other local breweries. Bar snacks, plus limited selection of wine, seltzers, and mixed drinks. Extremely dog friendly with outdoor seating in good weather. Support local and drink local! #Buffalo #craftbeer #beer

Stopped by to check it out after hearing about them online. The building is cool with a upstairs with more seating and they have a nice yard too. The owners/bartenders were super friendly and happy to share their insights on their products and upcoming beers. Beer was awesome too. Great experience all around. Can’t wait to go back.

I’m so glad I finally visited this place. It’s so cozy and friendly. The beers were fantastic and they had plenty of non-alcoholic options for my husband. I loved all the board games available. The washroom was clean and easy to access. I didn’t have any of their snacks, but I definitely will next time. If you’re thinking of visiting- just go!

Stopped by to regroup, have a beer, and charge my phone as I was traveling through Buffalo. Just the cutest place and seemed like a friendly hangout! I had "Call the Kraken" as I love Hazy IPA's and this one was top tier! Thanks for the hospitality 🍻

I went at the end of a Saturday night with my friend. The space itself was really nice and there were octopi everywhere! The beer was really yummy. I especially liked the lemon and lavender one and the sour bags. How fun. This would be a regular spot for me if I lived in the area! Thanks Brett!

Saw this brewery on instagram and decided to give it a try. While small they pack a punch. Friendly bartenders, warm and inviting environment, excellent seltzers (not my normal but fantastic) and games to play. I can definitely see myself coming back here. Anyone that judges a place by their vibe, knows what I mean when I say this feels like a good place.

Everyone there was extremely nice and welcoming. The beer and cocktails were great! Learned they are only 2 1/2 months into being open and they are doing great, pay them a visit!

Michelle Rizzo Andersen

Great service. Great beer. Great cocktails made with spirits only from New York. If you’re from out of town you gotta stop here. The locals in here seem very happy to be here too. Can’t go wrong.

Mark Leverone

Cool, tiny, OLD brick building. Awesome decor! Good beer. And I for one, appreciation the server’s “questionable morals” 🤣🤣🤣

Jillian Kobel

Stopped in for a beer. Was greeted with smiles and a welcome! Staff is personable and it was happy hour! $2 off a flight! Atmosphere is great and on theme! Will be back

Cozy, welcoming atmosphere. If you order a flight, the holder is even shaped like an octopus. Great beers, cocktails, and snacks. They also have board games you can borrow and an upstairs area with plenty of tables to spread out. One of my favorite spots… no pun intended.

We rented the whole facility with about 50 people attending Wonderful experience. The upstairs served as a quiet talking area instead of the downstairs or outside area. The bartender we affable, very fast, and efficient. We were able to bring in sandwiches, Wraps, cookies.... Very reasonable prices

Such a fun spot to visit while in town! Server was so kind and engaging creating a soda drink for our daughter and offered beer flight suggestions for the adults.

Beautiful and cozy independent brewery. Amazing beers with a tremendous vibe. If you want original and unique craft brew this is a must visit in Buffalo.

What an excellent smaller venue to hang out with the locals. Descent prices on beers and cocktails. The patrons were very friendly. Brett the bartender was a breath of fresh air with a great attitude and knowledge of the brews. Very friendly for our first time visiting!!! Great Porter brew!

Beyond Beer: The Eclectic Charm of Spotted Octopus Spotted Octopus Brewing Company is a hidden gem. Like other alluded to the service is top notch! There are more options than just their brews with a selection of seltzers, wine and even specialty cocktails made with area spirits. Others have noted it is cozy and we'd agree. There are some large four top tables and plenty of games to enhance your experience. The second level provides a bunch of extra seating options. It has an eclectic theme with unique decor. There is limited outdoor seating as well. The writing on the wall brings me back to my college days, but there are some funny things to uncover and writers from around the country. Give Spotted Octopus a try, you won't be disappointed. The writing on the wall brings me back to my college days, but there are some funny things to uncover and writers from around the country.
