I haven't been in a few years but I remember Anchor Bar and Duffs being pretty good. I liked Duff's better but Anchor Bar is a cool place. There are a few nice old neighborhoods north of city. I don't remember the name of the neighborhood but they were near the big round-a-bouts.

Decent in the summer. Pretty depressing to see what seemed to be a once vibrant industrial town shut down. My ex wife is from there and her dad and grandpa always told me that like many other Northern towns, the government taxed businesses away to fund their welfare state.

There are plenty of beautiful small towns to visit within an hour so a drive through the surrounding countryside is worthwhile.

I had to go for work in December. It was pretty depressing. Niagara Falls is pretty insane, though. Canadian side looks a lot better than ours.

I've been to Buffalo for a conference once. I just remember everything that we wanted to do or places we wanted to eat at were on the Canadian side of the border.

Buffalo was depressing.

Buffalo is a complete shite hole!
Do NOT spend any time in Niagara Falls, NY right next door, which is even worse

Niagara Falls, Ontario is great place to go, lots of great golf if that interests you

I drove through Buffalo in January a couple years back as a heavy snowstorm was just beginning to fall. It was a pretty sight.

I went through one other time in the summer and all I remember is seeing a lot of guidos.

I like it during this time of year.

Delaware Park is nice. I also went to some cool bars while there. Kinda downtown area.

Wife is from the Rochester area. We pass through Buffalo everytime we head to either Niagra or Toronto. Most of the descriptions thus far nail it pretty closely. Most New Yorkers consider it a dump.
