The Glen Park Tavern in Williamsville

I'm really enjoying using the Buffalo Dining cards my boyfriend Geoffrey got for Christmas. They have been a fun way to check out a bunch of places in Buffalo we have never been to before! If you are looking for a fun gift for Valentine's Day or upcoming birthdays, pick them up!!! They are just $20 for the pack, and come in a card deck sized box with around 50 different places to try. Each card is good for $10 off your purchase.

On a Tuesday evening a few weeks ago, we ventured out to The Glen Park Tavern on Main Street for dinner with Geoffrey's son Jacob. The tavern is adorable on the inside with a big wood bar and a cozy "Cheers-esque" atmosphere. We were promptly seated in a booth and our service throughout the evening was great.

The menu is pretty large with many appetizers, soups, salads, sandwiches/wraps, comfort foods, seafood entrees, chicken/ribs, etc...When asked what was the best, the waitress said the staple menu hasn't changed in 14 years, so almost everything is good!

I have a thing for French Onion soup so when I saw it on the menu, it was a no brainer to get it. It was a little pricier than other places ($5.99 a crock), but it was absolutely delicious. For our dinner selections I chose the Jane's wrap (chicken, portabella, roasted red peppers, artichokes and asiago cheese) which came with fries. Geoffrey had the Tavern Meatloaf which came with a generous portion of meatloaf, mashed potatoes/gravy and carrots. Jacob picked the macaroni and cheese off the kids menu. Absolutely everything we had was really good. The mac and cheese was homemade and it was a very generous portion size for a six year old (which was great for Geoffrey and me because we got to have some!). My wrap was very flavorful and a good size and the fries were really great! Geoffrey enjoyed his meatloaf dinner, the portion size was generous and reasonably priced at $9.99.

There was a very "homey" feel to the restaurant and the attitude was very upbeat and fun. We were in there around 530pm, and there were a handful of people enjoying happy hour at the bar and a few other tables of people eating dinner. The wait staff seemed prompt and everyone seemed to be enjoying their meals.

The Glen Park Tavern has been a historic staple in the Village of Williamsville for years. It's a fun night out with friends and also very kid friendly. The cost is very reasonable and the portion sizes are great.

They offer free music on Sunday afternoons from 2-5pm and also on Fridays late night from 10pm - 1am. They have numerous game day specials for Sabres/Bills games, and have nightly menu specials as well. They are opened most days at 11:30am - 10:00pm, extending an hour later on Fridays and Saturdays. They open at noon on Sundays.
