The Buffalo Cocktail Classic is back for its second year with ten of Western New York’s best bars and restaurants competing to see who makes the best craft cocktails in town. The annual event is put on by StepOutBuffalo.com with an all-new presenting sponsor, Compeer of WNY. The coveted “Buffalo’s Best Cocktail” award will be up for grabs along with other awards and bragging rights - all taste tested and voted on by attendees.

The 2017 Buffalo Cocktail Classic event will take place on Sunday November 5, 2017 (which is a Sunday when the Bills are *not* playing, fyi) at The Foundry Suites on Elmwood Avenue from 5-8pm. In addition to tasting 10 craft cocktails, attendees will also enjoy a live DJ, food vendors, a cash bar with additional libations, and lots of other entertainment.

The 2017 Buffalo Cocktail Classic will celebrate both classic and creative cocktails with competing bars and restaurants having the option to select from Tommyrotter Distillery’s  award-winning vodka, gin, or whiskey. After tasting each of the ten participating bars’ craft cocktails, attendees will vote using a good old-fashioned voting system rather than last year’s digital voting.

General admission tickets ($45) include admission to the event and craft cocktail tastes from each of the handpicked bars and restaurants. VIP tickets ($60) include all of the above plus access to the exclusive VIP lounge, VIP entry, a private cash bar, and a VIP only food buffet. Feeling generous? Attendees can also choose the Round Up for Compeer option at checkout and the difference goes to Compeer!
