Outdoors…

Niagara Falls

10 Rainbow Blvd, Niagara Falls, NY 14303
Just a 25 minute drive from downtown Buffalo, or an hour from the venue, this is a can’t miss spot if you’re going to be in town for a little extra time. If the border is open, the Canadian side is lovely, but the US side is absolutely worth a visit if you haven’t seen the falls before!

Chestnut Ridge Park Eternal Flame Hike

1.5 mile out and back hike to a beautiful “eternal flame” inside a waterfall. Just outside of Buffalo. A great hike for kids and adults who like casual hikes, worth the short trip!

Letchworth State Park

About an hour from Buffalo, and from the venue, another beautiful spot to walk with the kids and see the beautiful fall colors.

Food…

Buffalo Wings!

Anchor Bar or Barbill or Duffs, oh my!

When in Buffalo, you’ve gotta get some Buffalo wings! They’re all great but our top recommendations are here:
Anchor Bar — the original home of the Buffalo wing, and some of the best! A classic choice.
Duffs — one of the most popular spots among Buffalonians. They maintained Maddies top spot for many years.
Barbill — Shawn and Maddie’s new top pick! A little different flavor, and smaller spot, but worth it all the way!

Charlie the Butcher's Kitchen

1065 Wehrle Dr, Williamsville, NY 14221, USA
There are several locations throughout Buffalo, but this is the best place in town for our classic beef on weck. It looks like a roast beef sandwich, but we do it best, and it's worth a stop!

Paula's Donuts

2319 Sheridan Dr, Tonawanda, NY 14223, USA
With apple fritters the size of your face, and diverse flavors from Key Lime Pie to Strawberry Shortcake to Peanut Butter cup, as well as all the classic flavors, they're the best place for donuts around. We HIGHLY recommend a stop at any of their locations.
