the manager | bartender was the absolute best. burgers were amazing and drinks perfect. absolutely a recommendation

Great atmosphere and the service is excellent. The specials are phenomenal. The wings are always a great choice. The bartenders go out of there way to provide a safe and comfortable atmosphere. I'd highly recommend.

Bartenders brandon and Andrew are phenomenal at what they do - good vibes and solid burgers and waffle fries! Lot of space and darts and a claw machine with good drink selection too!

The bartender during the Bills game was awful. He was very weird and he acted like it was the most inconvenient thing to take a drink order. The bar was busy but not busy enough where I couldn’t walk right up and get a drink within a couple of minutes. I actually thought for some reason I had done something to make him mad? then I thought it might just be his rbf but turns out he just actually isn’t a nice person.

My now husband and I had our wedding rehearsal dinner here and it was awesome! Before finding this gem we searched through all of the many mainstream options the city of Rochester has to offer for restaurants and everything was the same; boring and overpriced. I then came across Toasted Bear Tavern, which happened to be the location of our first date 8.5 years ago. From my first communications with the manager Jesse he was amazing and eager to help. He went above and beyond, from meeting with us prior to the date to see the renovations and taste the outstanding food. To the night of the dinner, he was extremely easy going, flexible and personable. We would work with him and his staff again in a heartbeat! On top of the excellent service Jesse provided to make it a wonderful night, the food was out of this world. I heard so many times that night and even days later how awesome the food was and what a great time everyone had! I would recommend this place not only as a fun bar/ restaurant but also a great place to host a party.
