Camp Cataract — Restaurant in Niagara Falls

Camp cataract is a wonderful little "hipster-esque" bar. It's cool and cozy, a little cluttered, they have little bags of chips (expired when I was there) and nick nacks for sale which can sometimes be a little odd and cause claustrophobia for some. Overall comfy environment, they state on the menu they only do 3 things, pizza, nachos and some smore variant. Pizza was good, they serve some kraft beer but also offer affordable domestic which is nice. The service was slightly slow, when I was there it might have had 20 people inside and the only server/cook was taking a bit to get to me with nobody else waiting, hate to see it on a busy night. They host comedy which is great, not enough comedy locally. They have lots of seat but not lots of tables so if you're there for a show and order a pizza or nachos and the tables are full have fun holding your food in your hands. The entire meal.

Pros - comfy, price variability, kind owner, hosts events

Cons - cluttered, lack of tables (can't accomodate large crowds), 3...

Our first night of four in Niagara Falls, and we walked less than ten minutes from our Airbnb to this gem. Courtney, the server and bar tender, was AHH-MAY-ZING! Not only did she explain the Canadian lingo that was new to these Yankees, but she helped us make our beer selection and explained why there was no longer any bourbon (#tariffs). The pizza was also amazing. Our teenage son ate an entire 16" by himself. For the other three of us, we ordered two pizzas and left with 1 pizza's worth of left overs. Courtney also took the time to write a list of three other local owned restaurants for us to try across our three remaining days... And she even drew a map to describe where one was located. I'm incredibly happy we chose this as our first stop after we arrived. We appreciated Courtney so much, we kept thinking we'd stop by CAMP CATARACT again, but three days flew by and we didn't make it back. I can only hope she checks out reviews to read this and know how awesome our family-from-Kansas...

Formerly capital, formerly the Queens, bartenders and owners friendly. They have renovated the enitre inside to make it a very cool place to hangout. There is a ping pong table, board games, a stage, a couple of pinball machines and a late night menu. This appeases to the hipster type of vibe which is absolutely fine, i showed up with my work supervisor and i felt it was warm and inviting. Prices were alittle off considering location, they are still kinda riding the craft beer idea so 7 bucks a pint with no domestics available on tap... meh if it sells it sells. I have absolutely no complaints about this place its a huge improvement over the 2 buck a beer days and u should be making my way over there tonight but i may stick to bottles lol good on u guys for improving the area its a pleasure to see thriving business owners and amazing people doing amazing things on...
