FOR THOSE WHO LIKE TO EATA day in the cold calls for hot, comforting meals and drinks, and boy, does Buffalo have that covered. Come winter, our restaurant and bar menus swell with hearty “only in Buffalo” delicacies.
Comfort Food
WINTER WARMER DRINKS The Tom & Jerry, a hot take on eggnog with brandy and rum, is Buffalo’s quintessential winter drink found at classic restaurants like Schwabl’s and Cole’s. Buffalo’s craft cocktail scene has recently exploded too, with Vera, Ballyhoo, Buffalo Proper and Bourbon & Butter each serving warm boozy delights. facebook.com/buffaloballyhoo • schwabls.com • verapizzeria.com facebook.com/buffaloproper • colesonelmwood.com bourbonbutter.bar

Buffalo winters work up an appetite only satisfied by some of the world’s best comfort food. Try Chef’s Restaurant’s spaghetti parm, covered in mozzarella and broiled to cheesy perfection with a side of marinara sauce. Or order a Friday fish fry from Gene McCarthy’s Tavern, a beer battered haddock accompanied by heaping piles of French fries, coleslaw and macaroni salad. The fried chicken and biscuits at Toutant and pulled pork from Suzy Q’s BBQ also shouldn’t be missed.

Nearby Niagara Falls has garnered headlines around the world for its frozen beauty. While the falls never completely freezes, the ice that forms from the mist on surrounding rocks and trees offers unparalleled winter scenes.
Frosty Falls
NICE AND TOASTY Need to warm up after a day on our rinks, hills and trails? The Buffalo & Erie County Botanical Gardens provides the perfect respite under its glass conservatory. Saunter through hundreds of floral wonders in its Panama Cloud Forest and Florida Everglades exhibits, then continue the tropical adventure at the Buffalo Zoo’s Rainforest Falls, which replicates a South American ecosystem. After the rainforest, head back outside and bond with the polar bears at the zoo’s new Arctic Edge exhibit.

Welcome to WINTER!
IN THE CITY
In the Country
The new Ice at Canalside, one of the country’s largest outdoor skating rinks, has transformed the Buffalo winter experience. The waterfront rink is built on a replica of the Erie Canal and features ice bikes not found in any other North American city. Learn to curl at RiverWorks, a new entertainment complex on the banks of the Buffalo River, skate at downtown’s free Rotary Rink, or rent snowshoes at the bucolic Tifft Nature Preserve.
