Windfall Restaurant

“This bar is known for being a great lunch/happy hour/after work spot but they proved that it's an awesome venue to host private parties as well.”

“Plus, the hockey was from a Canada-centric point of view, so I got my Don Cherry fix.”

“It's hard to find a place with a ton of space and friendly bartenders in this neighborhood, but this is definitely the place to go.”

  1. I have been here twice, once for lunch and once for happy hour. For lunch, I got the veggie burger and it was honestly the best veggie burger I have ever had. The service was great. The staff was very friendly. It was a great lunch.

    For happy hour, I went right after work (Arrived around 5:15ish) with two co-workers. It was pretty quiet so we could actually hear one another speak. We sat at a table and even though it was happy hour, the waitress took our drink orders. The drinks were good and pretty damn cheap ($5 well drinks). I would definitely check this place out again for happy hour!

  2. I came here for Wednesday night "hump day" drinks with some friends and coworkers. Windfall is overall a very standard Midtown bar. Beers are around 6 dollars with decent options on draft. The food was on the pricey side (and nothing special), so I would advise coming and just grabbing drinks. The atmosphere is very relaxed with friendly bartenders, and lacks the obnoxious folks who often frequent Midtown Bars after work.

    Good place for after work drinks or to catch up with friends if you are in the area.

  3. I rarely write reviews for non-Japanese places, but Windfall deserves one after I sat at the bar, asked the bartender for her recommendation, and was told to try the bison burger. I'm normally a bit skeptical about these kinds of menu items in what is essentially an upscale dive bar, but this burger is absolutely stunningly good. Get all the fixings and you don't even need mustard or ketchup. The melted brie, grilled onions, and bison burger have enough flavor to keep you super happy. Wash it down with a cold draft beer – I went with the Molson Canadian, which isn't on the menu, but is on tap.

    Nice beer selection. Friendly staff. Nice sized and appropriately placed TVs that let you watch a game or two without being overwhelming.

  4. Cute and spacious place for after work hang outs. Me and my coworkers came here to celebrate a former coworkers last day and it was perfect. Drinks were $5, and came in large or tall glasses, no wimpy drinking cup. And appetizers weren't bad either. We had some buffalo chicken pieces, spicy with a sour kick, no celery though. The pizza and quesedilla were my favorite! Warm, cripsy and cheesy!

  5. I came here after work one day to meet my friends. The bartenders and wait staff are all super friendly and on top of their game. If your drink is low, they will check if you need a refill.

    I also had their Bison Burger with Brie and Caramelized Onions ($17), which was amazing. It was a bit steep but whatever, the taste made up for it for sure. I was in love with it. I was a bit upset they were out of mashed potatoes but glad they had sweet potato fries.

    The prices are a little high but it's still a good spot and the burger was amazing especially washed down with some Smithwicks. Definitely would return!

  6. Simple long bar and some seating, with a couple TVs and a sassy pretty waitress by the name of Mel who had great stories and a fun attitude.

    A good time had by all!  Haven't tried the food, but the happy hour was fun. Will see how it is the next time I stop by and update again! 🙂

  7. Fun place to come for happy hour after work with a few coworkers or the whole office. There is an area at the front that can be roped off for groups or tall top tables and booths for smaller parties. Free chips and salsa just for sitting down is always a plus, especially when lunch was more than 5 hours prior.. The lighting is pretty dark and around six the volume on the stereo turns up to an inaudible level, so don't be afraid to ask to turn it down, the bar staff are extremely friendly. I love coming here!

  8. A friend recommended. Owner very friendly, Ryan the bartender builds rapport very easily. Its easy to feel welcome in this place. Lot more men than women ratio on the night I went which was a friday night around 5pm. I ordered the shrimp in the salad which was cooked nicely and shrimp were still succulent. I also ordered the lobster bruschetta type appetizer and it was amazing . hearty helping of lobster and great taste.
