It's been quite a while since I've stopped into Big Ditch and grabbed a meal but happy to report the experience was just as good!
I came with my cousin on a Wednesday evening for a brewery tour put on by Explore Buffalo around 5:30pm and stayed for dinner afterwards. We easily grabbed chairs at the bar around 6:30pm and the bar tender working immediately came over and brought out drink and food menus. He was great, checking in on us periodically and generally being a nice guy. The time it took for our food to arrive was very reasonable and the prices were in-line with the quality and quantity we received.
Sipping on their History Buff (Kolsch) and Classic Wit (Belgian-style Wheat Ale), I enjoyed for dinner their Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, fried, and a side of hand-cut fries with their Excavator BBQ sauce, from their list of Signature Sauces, to dip. The chicken was coated in hot honey and topped with cilantro sour cream, pickled red onion, lettuce, and cucumber. This was a very good sandwich, not my favorite, but still very good! The hot honey had a nice kiss of heat to it but the cilantro sour cream balanced it out and added creaminess. Looking at the sandwich, I thought it'd be pretty messy, but I was pleasantly surprised. The side of fries tasted great and I loved the Excavator BBQ sauce, totally would get that sauce again. When the plate arrived, I was a bit skeptical that it would fill me up, but when all was eaten (and drank), I was perfectly satiated, I didn't want any more.
Happy to see Big Ditch Brewing Company (and taproom) is just as good as the last time I came a few years back! I look forward to dropping in again, whether it be for a beer or two, or for a meal.
