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. Frank’s Gourmet Hot Dogs

    While I really love everything they do, from burgers to dogs and sides, the French Fries are truly my favorite anywhere. The fries are always perfectly cooked and salted.

  4. Squeeze Juicery

    The fruits and veggies they incorporate into their smoothies make for a quick and healthy lunch. The smoothies here are always the perfect consistency.

    Quintessential Buffalo-style pizza with concentrated tomato, pepperoni right off the stick and burnt edges. One of the few places still following the traditional preparation of Buffalo style pizza.
