Explore Things to Do in Buffalo

Buffalo has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, from a redeveloped waterfront and revitalized neighborhoods to a burgeoning craft beer scene and over $1 billion in new investment. Now there’s even more fun and exciting things to do in Buffalo! Like architecture? Visit seven Frank Lloyd Wright structures. Enjoy art and entertainment? Spend the morning with Charles Burchfield at the Burchfield Penney Art Center. History buff? Relive where President Theodore Roosevelt took the oath of office. Looking for something more casual? Take in the scene at Canalside or Larkin Square. Or check out Niagara Falls. (Yes, THAT Niagara Falls!)

  1. Brother’s

    I’m honestly obsessed, their shrimp and grits, their fried lobster, I STAN! Brother’s has always served amazing food, given great service, and handled last minute requests with diplomacy, I can’t say enough about them.

  2. Campfire Grille

    I was invited there back in 2019 and my life was forever changed. They have these amazing home fries that are perfectly seasoned. And I can’t forget their cinnamon roll pancakes. They are to die for and I can’t help but get them every single time.

  3. La Casa De Sabores

    La Casa makes homey Dominican food and they’ve been filling my need for good mangu! The traditional Dominican breakfast includes mangu (mashed plantains), fried cheese, eggs, and salami. It’s a filling meal for a long day and is paired nicely with a fresh cup of coffee.

  4. Undergrounds Coffee House and Roastery

    There’s something heavenly about chipotle apricot jam. This is the signature spread on Undergrounds’ Colonel Francisco sandwich. The pairing of the jam with the pepperjack cheese is a unique play on sweet and spicy. The kick may be mild, but the sandwich is full of flavor.

  5. Traphaus Catering

    I truly can say there are no better cooks in Buffalo than Thomas and Marquita Page. They have mastered breakfast. They, hands down, have the best grits in Buffalo, and their banana fosters French toast is something magical. They can be found on Facebook for ordering instructions.
