Small town bar feeling with friendly staff. Food and drinks are reasonably priced.
If you havent been here yet, definitely check it out. Friendly staff and incredible food! I had the beer battered shrimp. Its the fresh, good beer batter. Spring mix salad instead of iceberg lettuce. My fiancee had the the Jack chicken sandwich and he was equally satisfied!
Always stop in when we can - food and service is outstanding!!
Quickly becoming one of my favorite hide aways. Fair prices and good food. Friendly staff.
Food was recommended to us. It was good but it took 45 minutes for burgers and fries. Our friends at the same table had their food and were finished before ours arrived. Restroom really, really needs a cleaning and makeover.
What a great little spot with great food we got the poutine balboa and some wings it was amazing. I randomly searched wings near me and this place popped up glad it did cause we will surely be back. The bartender here has outstanding customer service for a busy bar at 10pm on a Friday!
Was served watered down well rum when I ordered Bacardi double didnt even taste like a single dive bar for sure
Very good grilled cheese! Perfect from like a diner. And has tater tots as the side and it was at least 20 of them. Plus Mac and cheese bites are great! Would recommend this little hole in the world
Best wings in all of Rochester. Big roasters made the original way. Its a village bar with friendly and hardworking staff. Many beers on tap make for a relaxing casual night out.
Waited over an hour for a burger and place was nearly empty, turned out they were prioritizing take out orders. Beers were good, burger was good, dont recommend curly fries. They are dry and tasteless.
Unfortunately disappointing food. Waited 40 minutes for a burger and a sandwich at 2 in the afternoon. We knew they were short staffed, with signs all over, so we expected to wait but the food was a huge let down. My curly fries appeared cooked but were soft, undercooked, and lacked any flavor. The jacked chicken sandwich looked like it would have lots of flavor with onions, peppers, and mushrooms but there was no flavor and no sauce, so it was dry. My husband’s food had similar issues of just no flavor and subpar quality. Needless to say I didn’t eat the food on a plate past a couple bites and we unfortunately won’t come back.
Went here on Super Bowl Sunday. Take out orders were insane yet i sat down and got my drink so fast and the bartender was so professional and relaxed about it even though I could tell she had a million things going on. Nice crowd. Great serviceGreat place to chill and amazing food this is coming from a long time local. Always appreciative of the service and warm company here
0/10. I walked in and the rude host barely greeted me and the first thing she said was the wait for food is 2 hours. I said no problem as I thought I would sit and wait with a drink, I was told that because I recently turned 21 and my ID was vertical rather than horizontal it was invalid, which is understandable but there was no accommodation just a rude waitress and and even more rude manager. I tried to explain how I have to wait for my road test for a new ID and even had picture of my passport but there was no accommodation not even a simple “I’m sorry is there anything else I can do as you wait for your food for 2 hours?” Keep in mind I am the only person of color in the bar. No one else is being spoken to with such disregard. TERRIBLE customer service, no organization and extremely long wait time. Only three people working and the “manager” was also head chef apparently. No customer should experience anything like this cause a suburban manager does not know how to properly run a business. DO NOT RECOMMEND.
Atmosphere was relaxed and the customer service was great. And while the chef cooked our delicious food he was belting out the lines from every song that came out of the jukebox. Very entertaining. Would definitely recommend!!!
Small bar with great food. Pick a sandwich, any sandwich, itll be great. If youre in the Brockport area, its the place to grab an awesome lunch!
A neighborhood gem dating back to 1929! Sam and staff were very welcoming as we visited for the first time. The menu is varied and our selection was delicious and the portion generous. The bar area appeared to be original, and when not talking to the locals we were entertained by multiple televisions. There is ample parking in a lot behind Barbers Grill, as well as on street parking. I highly recommend Barbers Grill & Tap Room.
This is a must stop place. Amazing food, good drinks. The place is a little small, but overall a great experience. I would recommend any of the Balboa sandwiches! Great place to eat.
Excellent selection of beers on tap, wait staff is friendly and quick! Not really sure how they churn food of this quality out of their kitchen, but its fantastic!
This is our third time ordering late night food. Every experience has been amazing! All employees are very kind, and the Italian Balboa is delicious. Definitely worth a try! It is on our 45 + minute drive home and I can not be more grateful for the easy experience I receive. Sometimes after cooking for 12 + hours you just want good service and this is what I love about this place.
Great little bar. Food was amazing I had a chicken jack cheese sandwich on Italian roll. Delicious and I should have ordered a half instead of Awhole one It was Hugh
The beer selection here was what really sold me on this place. I didnt count how many taps there were, but definitely more than you could try in one day. The sandwiches were really good also. There are quite a few TVs, its small, but seems like a great place for a small group that likes good beer to catch a game.
EXTREMELY RACIST! WAS CALLED A N**GER, AS THE STAFF DID NOTHING BUT LAUGH !!!
Coolest people working hard to keep people happy. Owner review. Thank you everyone today. It was a good day. Kim is the best.
Unfriendly atmosphere- rude staff at the front door. Were from out of state and definitely wont be coming back. (Also overpriced)
Great place. Very nice draft beer selection and wonderful food. I had a really nice fried Hadock fish dinner and my Wife had a hot Italian sandwich. Both were top notch. Bartender/server was fun and nice. Best place for food and beer in Brockport.
LOVE THIS PLACE!! Great food!!
Food was good. Flies not so much. Door was open so the trade off of fresh air was flies.
The balboas were terrible!! The ingredients werent fresh, our sandwiches were smaller than they have ever been in the past and the bartender was rude.
We stopped in for a early evening bite. Betwen the 4 of us ordered various burgers and their signature sandwich The Balbo. Everything was excellent. Good selection of things on tap. They attract a pretty good college crowd as it gets later in the night. 4 stars is because... Seating is a little limited.
There was 2 other small groups of people and it took over an hour for us to get our food, nothing hard. The server never checked on us. Noone informed us it would take so long and there wasnt an apology for the wait. Wont go there anymore. Our drinks where also gross and it was just soda.
This place is just gross, the customers are obnoxious and the staff is very rude. I wish I could review their food but I didn’t want to eat and left after the waitress caught an attitude with me. If you go here don’t touch the walls or the tables EVEYRYTHING has this sticky, slimy feel to it. The best way to explain it is almost like aged deep fryer grease that’s placed a nice film over tables and walls. I’m sure this place can be good but I don’t even know how they’re still open and able to serve food to be honest. The place hasn’t been cleaned in years. If you want to avoid contracting a communicable disease or get a staph infection don’t come here.
Had the barboas hot Italian it was delicious!
Very family friendly atmosphere. The food is great and the employees really make Barbers feel like home. Im proud that they employ an openly homosexual bartender named Jason. His sexuality puts everybody in a good mood and this progressive attitude is nice to see in such a small town.
Small bar on Main Street with very friendly staff and great wings. My son lives there and he took me to lunch and the food did not disappoint. Also had the pastrami bomber as well along with the mac salad and it was excellent
Food was delicious and eating outside is the best! We had our food in no time at all. Might need to get your one bartender/waitress a little help.
The food was great, the food was prepared when it was said to be. The wide variety of stuff I got was no problem for the little gal who finished up mid way. I will definitely go back for more food. Thank you for the suggestions and your service.
Great place for Lunch with great selection of beers.
Took over an HOUR for chicken wings on a non busy night. Worker was wearing a dolphins jersey. Only one bartender on duty. Cramped space. Had to play darts at an angle because they have a machine in the way. Go somewhere else and you will be much happier.
Food was excellent! Fresh and Hot...it just was not the best dining experience...its definitely more of a bar atmosphere and serving system
The beer selection on tap was solid, plenty of local brews. The Balboa was delicious. It was a nice local bar, perfect for a low-key evening
Very good place. Great food. Decently priced and good service. Definitely recommend.
Walked in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. Sat at a table and looked through the menu. Decided what we wanted and then waited for some acknowledgement of our presence. It was not busy. After ten minutes without so much as a hello from any of the three people behind the bar we got up and left and ate at the Stoneyard where we were greeted the moment we walked in the door and had a delicious lunch.
Food was decent but felt grilled chicken salad was very small. Lettuce was more of a small house salad with 5 slices of tomato halves and 5 rings of sliced onion for 9.99 with grilled chicken, less than 3 oz.
Came to get their famous Balboa, a grilled steak sub with peppers, onion, mushrooms, ez-cheese and the staple of Monroe county bar fair... Meat hot sauce. This is a really good sandwich. The prices are low the drinks are especially cheap. The bar itself is a little run down (college dive bar).
The bartenders here are the best. They are super accommodating and have great recommendations. They are great at handling large crowds and getting around to everyone!
Great food but wasnt busy and it took 45 min for a steak sandwich, fried pickles and mozzarella sticks. Wasnt told ahead of time. Definately need more help
If Im torn between a sandwich and full meal Barbers is where I go - because a sandwich IS a meal, and I generally get 1/2 a sandwich! Their specialty is the Balboa and you cant go wrong on any of the dozen+ varieties. I also enjoy craft beer, and their 36 taps cover the spectrum of types and tastes. If you go, check out the grill - they can turn out a whole bunch of meals at a time using about a 16x18 grill!
Barbers make THE BEST Reuben of anyplace I have been. Never is the sauerkraut soggy. Fun atmosphere, always good music
Come here everytime Im home in Brockport. The bartenders are awesome, and the Balboa is one of the best sandwiches ever!
Awesome food and service. Feels like a home away from home.
Good food, many beers on tap, nice atmosphere.Small but comfortable. Had a nice lunch with my wife and watched a little baseball. We will be back
Great local dive in Brockport. Has been there for years and hasnt changed. Which is great! Food is really good. Very popular night spot with the college crowd.
Awesome food they dont come to your table to serve you, you have to order at the bar. If you are going for a set down dinner and expect to have awesome service I wouldnt suggest but If you dont mind asking for refills a d stuff at the bar this place is awesome!
Stopped in and beside marring my wife, this was the best decision over ever made. Excellent sandwiches and great selection of brews on tap. Great location too
I love it at barbers my dads family came here growing up with their grandfather. It has great bar tenders that we have come to know and love.the cooks are great with thier food as well
I love this place! Excellent rotating beer selections, awesome food (Balboas rule!) and friendly staff. I drive all the way from East Irondequoit to go here.
Great place for craft beer, food and sports. Expect to wait for food if they are busy. If you havent had one of their Balboas, youre missing out.
I love going to Barbers. They have some of the best food in town!
Friendly staff, good beer!
Classic bar and grill, yet at the leading edge of the craft beer movement with 36 well selected taps. The food... sandwiches...no one else matches! Beyond generous portions! As I post I am trying to finish a pastrami and swiss sandwich...ahhh...
Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. the bartender was MORE concerned about finding something on the tv . ordered a regular sized well drink, I couldnt even taste any vodka in it..service was terrible, I doubt Ill be back..$4.50 for a glass of pop with a splash of vodka
Nice little bar in Brockport. We enjoy sitting at the bar, having a beer, watching one of the many tvs, listening to the music, and ordering their delicious food. (Very reasonably priced).
The food is pretty good and the bad tenders are pretty good about asking if you want a drink with in a few mins of walking in the door. The atmosphere is very old fashioned and its like stepping back in time.
Balboas!!! Pretty awesome sandwich!! & the Sunday regulars play some great tunes✔ Great beer selection & rustic atmosphere!!
Sandwiches were great.
Good foof and drinks, sometimes the wait for service is a tad longer then youd expect
The Original Barbers Balboa sandwich is far and away, the best sandwich Ive found yet on the planet thus far in my 57 years of life. A must try!
Took the family here on a road trip...food was phenominal! Great atmosphere, great everything. Good price. Thumbs up!
Relaxed atmosphere. Great greasy spoon location with over 30 taps of draft beer. Cant go wrong
Had a great time there watching the football game and the food was very good
Bartender with the short hair should be fired.. she was very disrespectful and rude I had a terrible time
One word .... BALBOAS. BEST sandwiches ever!
Nice friendly place with a long history. It can get crowded during peak times. The food is very good bar food.
Horrible food, will never go back

Review №1
2022-07-03Used to be a really great place and looked forward to visiting when I came to Brockport. This time, it took me 20 minutes to order and another 20 minutes until the server came to my table to tell me the cook walked out and there was no food. Owner had declared the kitchen closed. When I complained, owner told me cook had rotavirus.Wow, that’s good to know. If you’re sick, why were you coming to work to begin with?
Review №2
2022-06-24I didn’t go to barbers this time but it tagged me that I did. I have gone before and it’s nice. Small but booths and stools for sitting. Music, happy people, good servers.
Review №3
2022-06-27We have been here a few times. The service is great, the food is great, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the outdoor space nice when the weather finally is nice.
Review №4
2022-02-06Their fried pickles are really good. However, going back the second time because we really liked the way they did fried pickles, was really disappointing. The portion was meager and barely covered the bottom of the basket. The portion was nothing compared to what it was the previous time.
