Hamlin House Restaurant

The Hamlin House was an amazing venue. Their food was DELICIOUS! All of the staff was very helpful, especially Sharon. She even allowed us to use the bridal suite before the ceremony for the girls to get ready despite having our ceremony at a different location. The building is lovely so it made decorating easy, it doesn't need any! The bartenders were friendly and great. Just a wonderful experience all around. Definitely recommend!

We had a really wonderful experience working with Hamlin House. Sharon, the banquet manager, is so accommodating, realistic, and helpful. She didn't try to up-sell us in any way- she just laid out our options and gave us honest opinions when necessary. Our reception was affordable, and incredibly beautiful.

HH is an absolute gem of a building- it's located in the best area of the city, in our opinion- and so far our pictures look amazing, in large part due to how pretty and retro the place is. The lights over the dance floor created a glowy, romantic atmosphere for our party. The bar package is completely reasonable- and we kept getting comments at how "fancy" our drink options were (we had the call bar- mid-range price option)! The staff is so nice and helpful as well... Our friends and family kept telling us how cool it was, how great the food was, and just in general how happy they were to be there.

I have heard from other brides that they didn't go with HH because of the "lack of options" with the dinner buffet-- but in all honesty, they really do give you plenty of options of really good, warm, food-- we had over 30 people tell me they wanted a vegetarian option, and really- there was nothing on our buffet that had meat in it other than the meat! PLUS we had fried pickles at our cocktail hour! How great is that??

All in all, Hamlin House is a fantastic value, and undoubtedly one of the friendliest places in Buffalo. You can't go wrong.
