Casey's Black Rock

Nice spot. Lots of bar games. Buck hunter. Darts. Skeeball. Friendly staff. Wings were great 8/10 just below elite status. Hidden gem Nashville Honey hit was the best we got. I got medium and garlic parm (below )

We visited this place 2 years ago and it was a Kansas City Chiefs Backers Bar. The vibe at that time was amazing and fun. We visited again in early December 2025 and it has since converted to just another bar as ownership apparently transferred. Needless to say, we were less than impressed. Half the TV's were not on for Sunday football and the few that were on were off or delayed between the same game being broadcast. The food was decent, but the bartender gal was more interested in chatting with her friends at the bar vs. really offering any service or assistance to our table, which was right towards the end of the bar itself. I have been to many a sports bar and this one is sadly ranked one of the worst we have visited. Needless to say, we won't be going back.

Casey's brought back their old school fish fry and it did not disappoint! Perfectly breaded and fried Haddock with homemade sides and fries. Everything was on point. Topped it off with a Blackberry Crown & Gingerale. The jukebox had a good mix of music. College football on the TVs. Everyone was friendly and having a great time. 10/10 all around experience!

1st time at Casey’s and definitely didn’t disappoint!! Alex our bartender amazing. The food spectacular 🥰 this is going to be our new hang out spot especially since Football is BACK! We had the black rock burger, Chef Jeff’s wontons and Caribbean jerk chicken wings on the pit and the pain killer drink. Everything was amazing🥰

First time here. Nice atmosphere and the wings are especially good and crispy. The rum punch drink was delicious. Nice to have a good place near by.

First time ordering and I will definitely be back for more!!! The fish fry had the perfect crispy batter to fish ratio and the fish was perfectly cooked. The seasoned curly q fries were an awesome change up from your typical french fry and it came with coleslaw, mac AND potato salad 😁 the grilled chicken sandy was a flavor powerhouse and my husband loves the pickled onions in it!!! Great food, great service 👌

This was a awesome find! Such a cool bar for lunch. The wings were top notch and the atmosphere was great. Quick and knowledgeable service made it nice. Definitely will be back for more food.

Such a great little bar. To start it is very clean inside. It has some games like darts and pacman. We came in early with our daughter and the guy running the place was so nice. He even set up the projector to put some cartoons on for my little once since it was slow. I thought that was sweet. He also went out his way to find me some celery because they were all out lol. Anyways, food was great. Fresh and came out hot. We had a great meal and good experience. We'll be back.

Best food in downtown Buffalo! Close proximity to Buffalo State and Kenmore lots of TVs clean bathrooms, great bar, selection and amazing service! There's also live bands that clean in the back and lots of games to play . Highly recommend!

Great place, great food, great atmosphere! A sports bar with food that goes above and beyond what you'd expect. Staff and management are beyond friendly and fun. They have karaoke on Sunday evenings also! Accommodating parking lot. Everyone is welcome at Casey's

Casey's is a cool neighborhood hangout spot. It seemed like the locals were definitely loyal. We had a team building after work gathering and Casey's did not disappoint. The Bartender (and there was only 1) jumped into action taking orders and filling them. He was attentive and made sure we were taken care of. The cocktails were on point, I tried the NY Sour. This drink gets two snaps, a high five and "All Right Now, do yo thang Mr. BARTENDER!!! This cocktail was a mix of Bourbon, Red wine floated on top, Lemon Cordial, and Chai simple Syrup. While the drink didn't taste especially sweet, I'm sure my sugar level soared because I was full of energy!!!! Thank's Casey's you guys are the (Bleep) !!!!!! If you're in the Neighborhood stop by, they have yummy menu and DEEP FRIED OREOS!!!!!!! SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!!!

HIDDEN GEM ALERT!!! It was a Saturday in June when my boyfriend and I decided to try this place out and blow off some steam at Casey's after putting in lots of time beautifying my yard over the past few weeks. This place is amazing. There was a small crowd and it was around 6:30. It is the quintessential neighborhood bar featuring skee ball, darts, pinball machines, a boxing game and a hunting video game. There is an ATM and coin machine. They even played the Bandits game, which was really great considering they are in the playoffs. Although this is a Chiefs' backer bar, they also support the Bills, when the Chiefs aren't playing them. The owner, chefs and bartender were extremely friendly. Plus, they have hooks underneath the bar for purses, which is always a big plus to me. I had a couple NY Sours, which were made without egg whites, and they were delicious. I could have drank them all night long, but really two was a great amount. My boyfriend had a Negroni and some beer and enjoyed it. We saw the rave reviews for the burgers and my boy was craving a burger. I ordered the sweet chili wings extra crispy, my boyfriend had a burger, and we split the cheese fries. The fries were great - curly fries with queso, chives and bacon. It hit the spot. My wings were wonderful and I can't wait to go back and try more of the delicious food. Every item coming out of the kitchen looked phenomenal. It has all your standard bar food, but it is wonderfully done. Our bill was around $70, not including tip, but that was for the 3 food items, 2 NY sours, 1 Negroni, and 2 beers, which isn't bad at all for a Saturday night. We played some rounds of skee ball and a game of Cricket on the dart board. It was a great relaxing way to spend a Saturday night after gardening for weeks.

What a hidden gem! My husband and I found this spot looking for any place that was open for Easter and I'm so glad we did! Only wanted a few drinks and some finger food so we decided on the wings and fries. Delicious! I also loved that they have games and karaoke so we will definitely be back!

This is a hidden gem in Buffalo for sure. Had the chance to meet the owner as well, he was working and serving and shared with us how he got the decor behind the bar. The food is tasty but what else would you expect from a dive bar in Buffalo, some of the best food I've ever tasted! Definitely recommend the wings here. My favorite part is the penalty box- although I've never seen it in use I can imagine it has seen some pretty fun scenarios. Super unique to any bar I've seen.

A Kansas Chiefs themed sports bar in Bills territory?! What. The. ****!!! Okay, but it's still cool. The bartenders are relaxed and the smash burgers and wings are decent. I came here on a Friday night to bid adieu to a close friend of mine who is moving to Nashville (way to leave us, man!) and coming to Casey's was his suggestion, but boy--am I glad we came. We ate at the bar...and I have to say: their BURGERS are incredible. They have single patty smashes (11), doubles (13) or triples (15) and...WOW! So juicy, delectable...and you don't have to pay $21.99 for a 5-star artisan burger. So definitely get one if you're here. They aren't cooked to order, but they are delish and juicy. Curly fries are on point too. The wings were pretty good too. I got the hot and garlic parm...and the hot, while not really too hot, were delicious. Pretty crispy, but I would have liked them on the grill just a tad longer for the extra crunch, but nonetheless--in size and crispiness, one of the better Buffalo choices. So while it's Chiefs bar, you'll be Buffalo-loved and welcomed here, no matter your sport-affinity affiliation. Check it out if you love good bar food!

Came here following a busy day of day drinking and visiting the markets. We decided to stop in because it was close by and close to a friend who wanted to have a drink. This is a nice bar with great service. The menu is simple but jammed packed with some great options. I got chicken fingers in a sweet chili sesame sauce on the pit. And that was exciting! I've had wings on the pit but I didnt know fingers could be thrown on too!! They were absolutely delicious. Just enough char to kick up the flavor of the sauce. The sauce was amazing too. Not too sweet and just enough chili. My boyfriend got the Reuben sandwich and it was amazing. It was a nice cut of meat, not too much fat and the marbled rye was great. I would get that next time. One of the best parts was the owner and the bartender Vinny and Joey. They were some of the most hilarious down to earth people you could meet. They were kind and attentive, super friendly and had no problem joking with my boyfriend about his ridiculous drink choices. All and all it was a good night out and I'm glad we stopped in. Can't wait to go back!

Magical bar and food, which is saying a lot for a lifelong Bills fan at a KC Backer bar. Extremely nice bartender Vinny. Great clientele who are friendly too. Fries were crispy and cheesy and bacony.

This place was AMAZING! As a Chiefs fan living in Bills country, I've found my home! The people were so warm and welcoming. I had on my Chiefs jersey walking up to the door, and a fellow Chiefs fan greeted me enthusiastically, shaking my hand and showing me where to sit. The service was top notch and the food was delicious and fresh. I will definitely be back, for sure. Even in the off season. GO CHIEFS!

3.5/5 First visit here, came around 7 pm on a Friday and all of the 3 tables they had were full- so we sat at the bar. The girl working at the bar was super polite and very friendly. She was the only bartender for a good few hours and it seemed to have picked up almost immediately after we got there so props to her because she handled a busy bar very well. We ordered deep fried pickles, tater tot poutine, Friday fish fry & drinks. Total came to at round $50. The panko on the pickles was really good and I thoroughly enjoyed the lemon aioli. The tatertots were not what I expected, they were huge and fluffy and soft. I did enjoy them but feel like they needed some extra gravy. Fish fry was just okay, the Mac salad had a good amount of saucy-ness to it, we didn't really enjoy the flavor of the coleslaw, and the fries were alright. Overall the food we had was alright but nothing we would be craving or MUST have again. One thing that got me was the music, it was so eclectic, that it was almost confusing. We found ourselves being like "what the heck" at every song because it was hugely different from the last one - like an 80s ballad and then a heavy punk song next. Personally would have liked a better transition between genres but y'all know me - I'm picky AF. There are the few arcade games in the back which is cool, we only played a South Park pinball game for 50 cents. Pretty sure there's a parking lot next to the place but we parked on the street and there was plenty of space.

Great start to our experience with a private parking lot. Even better with a friendly server and welcoming environment. We took the advice of the Buffalo Spree Article and had the Burger,Reuben and loaded fries. The burger was cooked perfect, the reuben bread was buttered and griddled to make the sandwich complete. My favorite part were the curly fries, covered in queso and real bacon ;).

The service was horrible and the food took a long time to come out. it was cold and tasted horrible. the bathrooms were very dirty.

Cant get enough of this place! Great ambiance, drinks and always consistently good bar food. Bartenders are always attentive and never had any issues getting my music on the juke box. Sorry chris g

Great atmosphere, went there for some pinball while drinking some local seltzers. Great staff, very friendly.

Phenomenal chicken fingers and curly fries. Very clean. Will be back. Food came out fast too

Second time at this place. I put $10 in their jukebox for a number of songs I wanted to share with my table and in the next 30 minutes none were played. I asked the bartender WTF and he gave me some line about a crowd in the next room overriding my songs and I need to learn how their software works... Huh???????? Not managed well and employees have no idea how a business works.

We decided to go outside of our "comfort zone" on Hertel and figured we'd check this place out. Given the usual parking situation on Hertel, even on a weeknight, it was nice to go somewhere with an actual parking lot. Really nice bar, bar stools are the perfect height (don't get me started on short bar stools), friendly atmosphere, a whole freaking arcade with a few video games, couple of dart boards, and four or five pinball machines. Just a neat vibe, even with all the KC Chiefs paraphernalia (bartender told us the owner is a huge Chiefs fan). I love the fact that their "fancy" cocktail menu selections are "Martini, Manhattan, Old Fashioned or Negroni". Draft beer selection was OK, didn't really check what they had in bottles/cans. For food we had the tater tot poutine, a Reuben, and fried bologna. The tater tots were really interesting, they were the size of marshmallows and appeared to be perhaps balls of mashed potatoes that were deep fried-- plenty of cheese curds and gravy, we fought over the last bite. We're big fans of Reubens, and their Reuben was excellent (menu says the corned beef is made in house and I have no reason to doubt that). Fried bologna was good too, served on a Costanzo's roll, as all fried bologna sandwiches should be -- I think I might have preferred maybe cheddar or american to the provolone they used, but that's just me. I usually don't write Yelp reviews, but I think if someplace is doing something right, they should get a shout-out-- especially if its a new place (or under new management). We're looking forward to going back and trying the burger and wings, and maybe playing a few rounds of darts.

10 out of 10 spot. Had some sauce on my face and the owner wiped it off for me. Amazing service, highly recommend.

Sat at the bar and had wings during a basketball game. Was an enjoyable atmosphere, friendly staff & patrons, and I was totally impressed with the wings. That Thai chili sauce was great. Will def be back!

The food is fantastic. The service is top notch. Everyone who works there is basically a super model. There is ample parking. Are you picking up what I am laying down? Get your ass to Black Rock and give Casey's your business and thank me later.

Being a local, when my bf and I have the night off and we're looking for good food and drinks, we're at Casey's. This place is awesome all around.

Casey's is the perfect neighborhood spot. We recently moved to the area and saw that Casey's was playing the UFC fights, so we gave it a shot. Great drinks, delicious food, but more importantly the staff is so accommodating and nice. They literally pulled a table out of storage so we could have a place to sit. Thank you Casey's for welcoming us to Buffalo when you didn't even know you were the first bar we ever went to in the city!! Check it out!

An apparent wasteland, no problem finding parking. The host/owner was quick to greet us in his comfortable Brooklyn fashion, which unfortunately revealed several dozens girly tats. He was quick to point out "he was not from around here." Can't really blame him. If I wasn't from around there, and were discovered there, I'd deny it too. The place was empty. KC Chiefs apparel on the wall put us on guard. Everybody loves a winner. Since it was Lent, we ordered some onion snacks which were very good, then immediately went for the fish fry. The phony tough guy who owns the joint informed us that they use Cod instead of Haddock. We cringed. The juke box was excellent, providing all necessary listening for penance. The fact that the tasteful selections were chosen by famed producer Roman Debauchery didn't hurt. The fry itself was tremendous. A hearty fillet of fish was accompanied by no less than three sides -- all delicious. Ample tarter. The only thing missing was the accompaniment of low-life dregs that would undoubtedly occupy the joint after their hangovers wore off. Considering the very high concentration of degenerates in Black Rock proper it's something of a minor miracle we failed to cross paths with a single one of them. All in all, a very favorable experience. I could use a little less of the owner's banter on how many chicks he's tagged and more for ambiance. Perhaps that's why we failed to spot a single skirt within a block of the place. This guy needs to realize he is trying to run a business in one of the worsts locales in Buffalo. Engaging in unnatural relations with neighborhood street-walkers, and broadcasting it to anyone who'll listen, is hardly the best way to encourage return customers.

Great service and food, they didn't have anything my niece wanted so they offered to make home made mozzarella sticks for her.

LOVE the fried pickles, beef on weck, and the arcade games! super fun place, looking forward to going again

First visit since the reopen and it's amazing great atmosphere lots of entertainment and the wings are some of the best I've had in a while 5 stars I'd recommend this place to anyone
