Beer and wings was what was for dinner. Great staff. Fun to talk too. Good selection of food and beverage to chose from.

We are new in town and went there with friends. Will not be back!! Service was terrible. The dark haired bartender/server really was very indifferent to our needs. Our drinks sat empty for 20 mins and it was not busy. The place is dirty. We all had different meals and each one of us was not happy. I ordered fish and chips and it was very soggy with grease and smelt very off. Apparently even... more

I ordered delivery from here this past weekend during a stay in NOTL. It was just a couple minutes drive from where I was staying with friends, but all of us had already made ourselves cozy with some wine and board games so I opted for delivery.

I ordered a turkey burger with spinach and a feta-bruschetta mix, fries, and an additional side salad. I was told it would be 45 minutes - 1 hour for... more

Good pub food

It's in a bit of a non descript building, and hard to find behind the Best Western hotel, but well worth the search. The ambience is that of an old pub, with billiard tables and several large screen TV's, so it is not an place for an intimate meal. However, if you are looking for good food at very reasonable... more

Not Too Expensive But Service Could Be Better

I ordered the chicken parmesan "sandwich" with soup and coffee for a Saturday lunch. The Italian wedding pasta soup was good and the sandwich was fine. The total with tax came to $12.43. When I sat down the seat cushion was detached from the chair so I had to be careful to not pinch my fingers. My coffee was empty... more

Food is good, wait is a little long

The service was very friendly, we waited 40 minutes for our food, I had a burger and my partner had a club sandwich. It wasn't busy, so not sure why it took so long. The food was good. It was about 1:00 p.m., didn't look like anyone was cooking till about 25 minutes after we ordered. We wolfed down our... more

A Nice Surprise

We would never have eaten here by choice because it doesn' look like much but if you like friendly service, wonderful food and a break from the NOL prices, you willl not be disappointed.

Great food

Ordered from this place many times and tried various items on the menu. The pizza here is always fantastic as is anything else I've ordered! The manager, Trish, is very friendly and cares about the business and it shows through her interaction with customers.
Will continue to return!

Terrible

We usually only do good reviews on Trip Adviser ... Sorry to say, we had a couple of pizzas the other night from Butlers, for a quick and easy dinner party, since our regular pizzeria was closed ... The pizzas were tasty enough, however, after speaking with our guests a couple of days later, we all had heartburn and no... more

Good Food

Excellent food and customer service. This is the place the locals eat and it is open until 2am which is great after the theater.

Great service , great food

Visited Butlers for the final game of the World Cup today..though Didnt get to watch much of it because of an unavoidable power outage . The service up to this point was second to none.. the Service staff were fantastic and manager Trish was very appologetic as to the circumstance that was not at all her fault. Its great to... more

Awesome food for a good price

We order from Butler's quite frequently for lunches from my office, the food is always hot, fresh and big portions but not a big price tag on any meals. We continue to order from here several times a week. I have also brought my wife to Butler's after raving about the food and large menu and she is now in... more

Newly renovated with new staff and kitchen team, it's as good a casual meal as you will find anywhere in Niagara. Great prices too. The pizza and wings are outstanding, I normally get the Muriano pizza which is there own creation and awesome. What's even better is that they now deliver all throughout Niagara on the Lake! If you get a chance, head in with some friends for the game or just a... more

Good pub fare

Service was friendly,quick without being pushy. The food was good and tasty, the club sandwich was great.... more

great pizza

Butler's bills itself as having the best pizza and wings in town. The pizza has a light crispy crust, is really delicious and reasonably priced. The only minus was that we did have to wait 45 minutes for the take-out due to a mix-up with the order. Fortunately the great pizza made up for the wait. I would get take... more

We will be going back

We will be going back to our new favourite local restaurant very soon! We stopped in for lunch the other week and not only thought the food was great, but the service was great as well. My husband had chicken wings that he says were really good (and he's picky about his wings). I had an open face hot beef... more

Great reasonable pub food

Good sports bar. Great pizza , sandwich and soup deals, fresh roasted turkey.Will cater to those who have food allergies. Have Wi Fi
We have a large group of seniors who enjoy meeting up on a Friday night. We get first class service by management, and our waitress Amber. Our group can range from 15 to 28. If there is... more

Great Pub Food

They advertise having the best wings in town, and they're not kidding. Their fries and pizzas are great as well, but the best kept secret is the fantastic home-made soups. I'm pleased to call myself a "regular"

Nice bar and grill

Don't be discouraged by the looks. Food and service were great and prices good too. Nice place for a casual meal of pizza or burgers. Lots of locals mean the place is good one to go to.

Typical pub fare

Pub fare, Friendly, Lipstick on wine glass was not taken seriously by the bartender ( Yeah so?) But the friendly waitress rectified it immediately. Large portions, fries were really good. Prices were reasonable.

Enjoyable time

Found this place using Tripadvisor. I live directly across the river in the US but needed to make a big U to find the place. Had the BELT which was pretty good, the french fries were extremely delicious. I didnt put ketchup or gravy on them which is surprising for me. It was a busy place for being a Weds... more

Good hearty food

Friends from Mississauga chose this restaurant for lunch prior to us going to see Guys & Dolls at the Shaw Festival Theatre. They picked Butler's Bar & Grill after reading reviews on Trip Advisor. After reading the rave reviews, 4 of us decided on the Philly Steak & Cheese sandwich, some with Greek Salad and some with fries. First time... more

Wow

Appearances can be deceiving. A rather plain looking neighborhood bar, but what wonderful food! I had the house specialty, the steak and mushroom pie in a flaky crust. Reminded me of Guiness pie in Dublin. My husband had the burger special. He had a gigantic, quality meat burger with an entire bowl, not cup, of beef barley soup. We both... more

Fantastic food-atmosphere not so great

My husband enjoyed the Best Reuben of his life. I had a Greek Salad to die for. But there was 1 waitress and two couples at tables plus about a dozen locals lining the bar. Once we had our food, the waitress never returned. We couldn't get our check. I felt a little uneasy as the locals really over-ran the... more

Great Pub Food

Like others wanted to get away from the higher priced restaurants in the tourist area of the lake, the food is actually great. My husband had a Ruben sandwich and I had a steak and cheese philly steak, we also split an order of fried pickles. It seems to be a local hangout spot with a pool table area and... more

Monster burger experience

stopped in here for lunch. I had the monster burger and my wife ordered the 8 slice Cdn pizza. I could only eat half the order so had other half for supper. Pizza worked as planned for meals the next day.
That burger was a monster and excellent. Service was also good.

Amazing pub, great food and service

While staying at the Best Western Colonel Butler Inn for business, I checked out Butler’s for lunch, as it is right next door, and I’ve been hankering for some good, honest pub food for a while. Butler’s did not disappoint.
The food was excellent. The garlic bread with cheese was actually smothered with cheese, as it should be (too few... more

Diners Drive-ins and Dives should come here

Like others who have reviewed this place, we too wanted to get away from the higher priced restaurants in the tourist area, so we pulled out our gps and ended up here. Don't let outside of the building (pretty plain looking) discourage you, and don't let the noise once you get inside deter you. Sit down and check out the... more

Great food and service

We live in Niagara Falls. We had some visitors from Toronto last week and decided to take them to NOTL for a visit. For lunch, we wanted to go to a casual place away from tourist area and reasonable pricing. Butler's Bar was a good choice. Our guests enjoyed the food especially the pizza. They said that it was the... more

Good family spot

It's difficult to find a kid-friendly place to eat in Niagara on the Lake with good food but we found it here. Amazing burger and friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit to escape the white linens of other main street restaurants!

Great Experience

Had a terrible experience at another 'locals' place while we visited Niagara (see other reviews) so was a littler leery about going to another one but we had 3 days in town and paying the normal high prices of most of the restaurants starts to hurt when there are supposedly great casual places to enjoy. Well, I am so glad... more

Cold pints, great food and service

My kids and I stopped into Butler's bar in NOTL, and had a great meal. The kids loved the pizza and music, and I had a fresh and tasty salad (and a very icy beer!)
Overall a fantastic experience.

Fun place with great food

I was visiting the town for first time and hotel recommended butler's grill for a casual dinner. My wife and I thought the pizza was the best we had in years. Staff were friendly and accommodating, felt like a neighbourhood gathering place. Would go back another time for sure

Hubby's new favouite burger

Wanted to try somewhere we had never been before, so happy we decided on here, husbands burger cooked exactly to his taste (so big he only could eat half), I had the Philly steak and cheese, love how they cut it in 4 (only suggestion, a softer bun) enjoyed it very much, I could only eat half also, very filling,... more

Great food and casual, low-key atmosphere

The best pizza in the Niagara Region and the best wings this side of the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY (and, trust me, that's a real compliment!). Don't expect anything more than a pub menu and you won't be disappointed. The hamburgers are also great and, ladies, you can also get a decent salad!
If you're looking for a high-end,... more

Great Deep Fried Pickles

As everyone says you do not visit for the decor but come for the food. We were in search of pizza, beer and deep fried pickles and found all three after we were completely "wined" out. Pickles were surprise as not the usual coins but actual spears that had great breading and were super hot when served with ranch dressing.... more

A great place to soak it all up after a day

This is not a fancy, sit-me-down restaurant by any stretch...it has the feel more of a roadhouse, and the interior reflects that...but we didnt go here in search of fine wine and linen...we wanted bar/pub grub, and what we got did not disappoint!! Very friendly staff, and we gorged on wings, a pizza and deep-fried pickles, which I highly recommend!!!... more

USED to be a very relaxed and friendly place with good food

Before their recent renovations, the Butler's sports bar was a place to drink socially, eat good comfort food and enjoy the company of some good people. Post renovation, the establishment is slightly cleaner but comes with a new attitude from the staff...not too appetizing. Food is still the same, however having rudeness from the staff as an appetizer bitters the... more

Best pizza and Wings in the Niagara region

Both my Husband and l enjoyed your pizza and wings,best we have had in the Niagara area.
Keep up the good work and we will be back

Pricey for bar food only

For our bill to be $50 for pizza, wings and 2 beers each is ridiculous! The wings were about a C in quality. The pizza was pretty good if you like thin crust, I am a fan, but nowhere close to the price it should be. I understand that the area is a tourist trap, but come on people, keep... more

Check this place out

We live in Niagara on the Lake and finally my wife and I stopped at this place for lunch. I had the personal size pizza and was rather delicious, as we are waiting for our food I noticed the other plates being served and was rather surprised with the portions and with the awesome smell as they went by. Meanwhile... more

Our first visit

My hubby and I wanted to go some where different for lunch,so we dropped in to try this pub. The food was delicious, i had the Quesadilla with chicken,it was a good size. My hubby had the personal size pizza. And I had a coke, our meal for the two of us came to just under 24.00. Plus this pub... more

fun times

decided to eat here because it was close to our hotel. The service and food were both very good. It is a pub, so don't expect anything fancy. BUT, the food was very good and very well priced!!! A great place to go with a group of people if you want to kick back, relax and watch a hockey game... more

Great local spot

On our way out of town, we were looking for a non-touristy place for lunch and found Butler's. It has limited curb appeal, but what great food. The Daily Special was a cheeseburger for $6.95 with a side of fries (or you can have salad or soup). I enjoyed a great beer (my wife was driving). The staff was friendly.... more

Great Food. Great Service. Great Friends

Love this bar. I've been coming here for three years and it just keeps getting better. The food is amazing best pizza and wings in town for sure. I love the service the servers and bartenders are always so kind and they are great to talk to. Cooks are also kind and friendly. My favourite local place to go hands... more

Digging it

Great little spot to grab some snacks.
Their nacho's and pizza's are great! (Also good for take out on lazy days!)
Great place to hang out/ play pool and have some drinks!
I would recommend this little spot to anyone.

Great local spot with awesome pizza and nachos, and their deep fried pickles are so addictive! Has pool tables and plenty of TVs too.

Relaxed place with great food

I've been here a couple of times.This place has awesome pizza and their deep fried pickles are addictive! Great spot in town to play pool too.

don't judge a book by its cover

I was skeptical to try this locally recommended restaurant/bar because of the outside/inside look.
I was pleasantly surprised at how welcoming and comfortable the atmosphere was once I stepped in and was greeted by the the young women running the bar. She new the people in the place by name and went out of her way to chat and make... more

best pub food we've had in a long time

this place was recommended by the staff at the hotel we were staying at as a great casual place that wasn't as pricey as the rest of Niagara on the Lake. We had a Rueben sandwich and some wings and the food was great. Prices were also amazing, it's not surprising that this is the place the locals go in... more

Great local bar

This is close to what I would consider a hole in the wall, however it is a wonderful little (and cheap compared to other things in Niagara-on-the-Lake) local bar. The waitstaff/bartenders are very nice and friendly ( we had Victoria, who also works at Chip N Charlies in Niagara Falls).
They have a good selection of beer, both bottled and... more

Best pizza in town - Muriano (sp

Get this pizza to go and have it down by the river!! Life just doesn't get better!

Excellent burger

The other day I was looking for a quick bite to eat and I went to Butler's Sports Bar. I was amazed at the friendly service from Sara. I ordered the burger a certain way and the Chef even came out to speak to me which I thought was beyond the call of duty, but very impressive! I would recommend... more

Poor serivce but good wings

We stopped in for only one thing - chicken wings. The decor and service leaves something to be desired.HUGE. I'd may go back if I was crazing wings but that's about it.
