Things To Do
Spot Coffee
Great place to grab coffee and a light lunch or breakfast. Spot Coffee offers soups, salads, paninis, copious amounts of delicious coffee, and dessert for anyone craving a sweet treat. Get "The Mike" breakfast sandwich if your feeling really hungry. Bride's Favorite: Non Fat Caramel Macchiatto Groom's Favorite: COFFEE.
Tim Hortons
For a quick and delicious drive through coffee and breakfast. You can't go wrong with some Timmy Ho's.
Gabriel's Gate
For anyone looking for a warm up on a cold November day, Gabriel's Gate has the best french onion soup in the Buffalo area. This dive bar has some seriously delicious fare including chicken wings that might actually blow your mind.
Buffalo RiverWorks
If you feel like kicking back, having a beer, watching a roller derby tournament, or trying your hand at some curling this is the place for you!
Founding Fathers
A dive bar with a presidential theme and a Buffalo staple. Fill up on complimentary popcorn and nachos. If you are lucky enough to grab a spot at the bar, the owner (Michael Driscoll) may just test your knowledge with a little bit of trivia.
Niagara Falls
If you have never been to the falls, you should definitely make some time to see it! Only 20 minutes or so from downtown Buffalo.
Anchor Bar
Home of the "Original Chicken Wing". While the bride is more of a Duff's fan herself, out-of-towners should't miss out on the opportunity to see where the chicken wing crave all began!
Albright-Knox Art Gallery
For the art lovers, this is a great gallery to walk around just minutes from our venue location.
Jim's Steakout
Late night snack anyone? Jim's Steakout is a Buffalo staple that all 20 somethings end up at at some point in their college career at 3am. Cheesesteaks & Poutine... MMM MMM. Bride's Favorite: Stinger Wrap Groom's Favorite: Cheesesteak with Poutine
Canalside
Canalside is located right downtown with a bunch of activities for kids and adults alike. Head over for a few laps on the ice rink in skates or ice bikes!
Resurgence Brewing Company
Stop by for a flight and indoor games. Sponge Candy Stout and Loganberry Wit are the two Buffalo faves!
La Nova Pizzeria
If you are looking for some seriously delicious ZA, look no further than La Nova. They are located about 5 miles from the venue and most of the surrounding hotels. And yes, of course they have chicken wings... this is Buffalo after all...
Allen Street/Allentown
One of Buffalo's most well known areas for Night Life. Last call in Buffalo is 4am! Mulligans Brick Bar* Allen St Hardware Falley Allen* The Pink Frizzy's Colter Bay
Walden Ave & Galleria Mall
For anyone wanting to get their Black Friday shopping in before the festivities!
Betty's
