Elmwood Inn never disappoints. Great fish fry, bacon burger and chicken sandwich had by the three of us. Pretzel appetizers are delicious to boot.
I go almost every week for dinner. The bar is the best seating, near the fireplace. The service is great. They remember us and always seat us in the area they know we like. The food is so homey and consistent. It is great. Being across from college town, you get some great people watching. Really an "at home" kind of vibe. I highly recommend the Blue moon filet. Enjoy!!
My friend and I had to find a new place to watch Sunday football after our old place had to close. This is our new Sunday home. Food is great, beer selection outstanding. Harrison is pretty great!
The service is always fast and friendly, the food is delicious, I have tried many different things, ranging from appetizers, to burgers, to steaks, and fish fry's, everything has been delicious and cooked perfectly, I highly recommend the Elmwood inn
I love the Elmwood Inn... it is how I think it must have been to visit "Cheers" in Boston... it has that neighborhood feel and one of the best wait staffs in the City; especially Jordan and Deanna; always a smile with excellent service! Oh, and the food is always top notch!
Blue moon burger(extra gourmet blue cheese cream cheese). Cheese Burger plate(extra gourmet meat hot). Grilled chicken sandwich. Some of my favorite meals in town. Hands down.

I love this place. The food,drinks, & staff are wonderful every time I visit. They have the best burgers,salads,steaks, & did I say the "Electric Lemonade is AWESOME this drink will put a smile on your face" �.
My wife and I had a great time at the Elmwood Inn. We always have a great time there. The food and service is great as is the atmosphere. We love it!
The atmosphere is great, and the food is PHENOMENAL. I have eaten there several times, and I have NEVER had a bad meal!
This was my second time to the Elmwood Inn and I was not disappointed. My buddy and I came out for their Friday Fish Fry and it was great! One of the very best we've had in a long time. We were seated quickly (no reservations), even though it was fairly busy (the parking lot was almost completely filled). Our server, Christine was attentive and friendly.
I had the Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter with the beer batter Fish Fry and my buddy had the Ellicottville Blood Orange Ale with the Panko Breaded Fish Fry. We both had the onion rings and cole slaw for our sides with tartar sauce in a separate cup. The fish was well cooked, fresh made and delicious. The onion rings were also great! If you're looking for a great Fish Fry on a Friday night, you won't go wrong at the Elmwood Inn, I'd recommend you give it a try.
I come here for the beer battered fish fry! So good!!! There's lots of room and seating here. Never had to wait long to be seated. I've visited here often with coworkers for lunch and we've always had a wonderful experience!
Lisa was phenomenal! My friend had a burger with onion rings and I had the beer battered fish sandwich with coleslaw. Everything was wonderful and I would definitely return.
Food is overall very good, significantly better than most other food in the area and priced mostly reasonably. Beer selection could be a bit better but is pretty standard for the area. Service is where this place shines, staff is extremely friendly and attentive (at least at the bar). Has a pretty large group of regulars and it's pretty obvious why, this place has nailed it's pub culture. Overall if you like local bars/restaurants I would definitely give it a shot.
It's a great little place, not much to it. The food is good and that's really what matters! I never really seen it that packed in there which is good because then you get attention. I tried a few different items and everything I had was good. Nothing over the top or two fancy couple of unique items on the menu I say give it a shot! You won't be disappointed.
For the most part the food is usually good. French fries are outstanding! Today my grilled sandwich was awfully greasy but inside ingredients were delicious. Nachos ordered had cold chicken and stale tasting chips. Had it redone with fries and was good. Chicken still cold. Chicken should be replaced with chili!
Dinner tonight was so good. Coconut shrimp appetizer and a side of Mac n cheese. So so good! Large shrimp with a crispy coconut coating served with a zesty peanutie sauce. Mac n cheese is the creation of the Chef. I loved the white cheesey sauce!!!! Prices are very reasonable. Our server, Lisa, was awesome. Friendly and attentive.
We searched for haddock fish fries near Strong hospital in Rochester and the Elmwood Inn came up. They did not disappoint! We received huge pieces of beer battered haddock (skin on, though) with tastey sides (broccoli salad, coleslaw, onion rings, tartar sauce and lemon). The petite broiled haddock was very petite but very good. It's a bar and restaurant with outside patio area. Enjoy:)
We occasionally stop here for lunch and the staff and food are always great. The fish fry's and plates are always group favorites, and the staff is always welcoming. If anyone from the Inn is reading this, please bring back the open faced roast beef sandwich.
This place is a hidden gem. Excellent food. Reasonable prices. Decent beer selection (although id like to see that expanded). In the bar area there are ample TVs to make everyone happy. I went with the wings, extra crispy, which were cooked to perfection. My wife did the garbage plate. She liked the plate but to my personal preference there was some slightly off about the meat hot sauce. Too much cinnamon? Anyway, like I said that personal preference because my wife thought the sauce was amazing.
We'll go back again without hesitation.
GREAT burgers! (Never had artichokes on a burger before but sure will again.) Our server Jennifer was so pleasant & friendly.
Will be back & definitely recommend.
Had another delightful lunch of the deck today in beautiful weather in Western NY.
Our server, Desi was great and the food was wonderful. Portions are generous. We'll each get at least one more meal from our lunch.
Always delicious food with exceptional and professional service. I often go early in the week and there is only one front staff and she does a superb job. I often have the grain bowl which is delicious and my husband has the Mac and cheese which is also delicious but very rich.
The food was delicious! We were grateful that you have a plant based/vegan option, the burger was delicious. My husband loved your many beer choices and I loved that you offer prosecco by the glass, small bottle! The service was super. And the place was very cozy comfortable, with warm hospitality. We loved it!!! The Elmwood Inn is very special to us since were there for our very first date back in 1987, we married 2 years later in 1989 and we came back last last night on our 33rd anniversary. We haven't been back in years but seeing the Facebook offer brought us back and we plan to make it a regular dinner spot!
Cozy, calm neighborhood pub. Delightful for a family lunch outing on a rainy day. Super nice staff and very accommodating of young children.
The food is delicious; the choices are all good; the service is excellent and the ambiance is fun. We enjoy lunches and dinners here and have always been more then satisfied.
This is a great restaurant with fantastic food. We know we always have a great meal and atmosphere when dining here.
