The locals are very serious about their food. Some local sweet treat favorites are sponge candy and Perry's ice cream. https://www.platterschocolates.com/

The area is also known for beef on weck and, of course, wings (buffalo wings, but we just call them wings). Anchor Bar in Buffalo is the birthplace of the Buffalo wing, but we recommend Duffs. Wings traditionally come with blue cheese dressing. You can ask for ranch, but be prepared for some good-natured teasing.
