“A gem of a bakery….love all of their products“

“My wife and I have been here twice now our first time was great very quiet and the food was great. My wife got a 4 cheese pizza and I got the chicken parm with a side of pasta. Their red sauce is excellent and food is excellent. Their Connolis are so good decent size too grabbed one of those too. Service is also excellent very nice and kind staff. Which leads me to today's dinner. I have been wanting to go back for some time. Looked at the specials got stuffed garlic Knotts those were so good! I again stuck with Chicken parm I don't eat it other than when I go out for dinner. Wife got the pizza Bianca which was a white pizza I believe. Again food was just as great as last time. I had the displeasure of a customer sneezing on me as they left the restaurant. I was admittedly very upset who wouldn't be. I am pretty sure that after I was sneezed on it definitely landed on my food too and I immediately stopped eating. Anyway our waitress asked if we needed to go containers my wifes food was untouched by the sneeze thankfully. I told our waitress the customer sneezed on me as they left and pretty sure it got on my food too. She was very apologetic and understanding i would not eat the rest of my dinner. It was a good portion of pasta left over she was very kind and said she can get me more pasta! She didn't have to do that I was not trying to make a fuss and accepted the offer. I went to the bathroom and cleaned my face and arm off and looked forward to my comfort connoli. The staff here is great they are nice and they are kind. I am not deterred to return i still will. I just want the waitress and their staff to be recognized for their service and kindness. To the waitress who helped me I do not remember your name, but thank you. I hope you know who this was and who you are and that your boss sees this!“

“We had an amazing visit today on our way through. The cafe was adorable, the baked goods some of the best we have ever had, the owners were super sweet and our daughter absolutely loved the homemade watermelon lemonade. There were also coloring books and everything was super clean and cozy! 10/10 recommend!“

“I love this Panera! It's one of my go-to spots when I want something quick but still fresh and satisfying.

I love the variety on the menu—especially the soups and salads. The sandwiches are always tasty and made with quality ingredients.

The atmosphere is cozy, great for working or catching up with a friend.

The area is very nice & the outdoor seats are good!

Enjoy your meal! ;)“

“The best deli in western ny you must try it“

“Recommended for: Atmosphere, staff, and drinks made to perfection. Gorgeous art books (Including Taschen). In a word: lovely.“

“We were there late morning on a Tuesday. The waitress Sharon was very friendly. We started with the coffee. It was very good and I don’t normally drink coffee. It was a cold day in December though. Needed something to warm me up. I got their 10yr anniversary skillet. Highly recommend it. It has scrambled eggs, spicy Italian sausage, potatoes, green peppers and mozzarella cheese melted over the top. DELICIOUS! My wife had the #3 which is scrambled eggs, home fries and choice of meat (she chose turkey sausage) with Texas toast. She said it hit the spot. Definitely going back again.“

“Love, love, love this place! Been here many times and the waffles never disappoint. My only feedback would be is that they don't have 2% milk, which is always a preferred milk at a coffee house. Awesome quaint little place tho!“

“Gr8 little Cafe that serves more than bakery items - soups, sandwiches & salads. Food came promptly, was hot & delicious ?. Server was attentive & friendly“

“Great spot to grab some fast onigiri! I got the spicy tuna, miso sweet potto, and teriyaki chicken for $16. Great packaging and had lots of filling! The spicy tuna was a star and I will go back for it, plus very filling. Plus some of them were GF too!“

“Lovely, light filled space with bright decor with a touch of boho and floral accompanied by Indie tunes with a blend of delights for European or American pallet, and warm and friendly service to come in grab something to go or to get cozy and stay and get carried away connecting within, connecting without/with friends, or making new friends… board games are a bonus! You’re sure to want to come back!“

“My niece told me I had to check the place out. She knows her Aunt welbeze! 😆 Seriously, the vibe is so positive it's actually soothing. The acai bowl is as good as the bowls I've had in Cali. The Chai Lattes were as yummy as the omelette. The bathrooms were clean. I'd recommend checking on the tp throughout the day. I went back to work and raved about the place...eats, drinks & staff were awesome! I'll be back!“

“It’s different and has all the great Cereals from when I was a kid. How can u go wrong with Ice cream and Cereal?“

“Lola’s Bakeshop at The Lunch Box, inside the Lafayette Court Building, has the best pastries, cookies, and other baked goods. They always have top notch standards, like chocolate chip and peanut butter, but they also offer creative options like London Fog Lavender cookies or Dubai Chocolate Pistachio brownies. Also amazing gluten free options. The Lunch Box makes one of the best breakfast burritos I’ve ever had.“

“We’ve been coming to Unbridled Cafe for a few years when visiting family in Buffalo. It’s always been a great spot for breakfast & the mercantile is super cute with full of unique items! We got to meet the owner today on a whim when we stopped in & she was so kind & welcoming! & as a fellow “horse girl”, I highly recommend! The decor is a cute western vibe & the food is great!“

“Great place for lunch, Try the Malibu Barbie.... 😎❤️“

“I had such a wonderful breakfast here. Everything was fresh and packed with flavor, making for the perfect start to my day.

The bagel sandwiches were served warm and wrapped in foil, which kept them in great shape. I also picked up a baked good that had a perfect, toasted texture. It is easy to see why this spot is a favorite in the neighborhood. I will definitely be back soon.“

“Got a cup of house blend today and all day kept thinking about what a great cup of coffee it was. Highly recommend.“

“I love this place so much, the first time I step in Here I felt welcomed. Cathy the owner made me feel like home ? everyone I met the 2 times I Been here became like my long time friends. Great conversations and the energy was amazing. I will visit you now often Cathy thank you for having us and welcome us with a big smile and warm hugs.“

“I came for the matcha on tap and was not disappointed. As a tea drinker there are not many places to find a good matcha. I purchased the iced pistachio matcha and it was amazing. Their summer bun with homemade plum jam was also very tasty. If you are a vegan, there are plenty of options. I will definitely be coming back at least once a week. The staff was very personable.“

“Sunshine Cafe is the absolute best! Tony and his family will make you feel welcome and provide you the best experience! The food and drinks are always top notch! And Tony is always coming up with new additions to the menus! You won’t regret a visit to Sunshine Cafe!! They are truly the greatest!! Also, Tony’s daughter Jessica makes the bestttt baked goods - you are lucky if you get the chance to try them!“

“First timer at the one near Larkin. Everything was delicious and service was great. Will definitely be back!!! 😊♥️“

“....this tea is,... simply the best... many choices !!...“

“For those reading this review, Dave’s kitchen should be the company catering your next event. His pork chops with mashed potatoes, gravy, applesauce and green beans were absolutely delicious. Dave and Kathy catered my rehearsal dinner at my parents and everyone was so impressed! The owners are very personable and accommodating. Thank you for a phenomenal home cooked meal!“

“What a cool place! This is a breath of fresh air. The music is great and the tea is absolutely delightful. The owner Angela is just the sweetest. The atmosphere she has cultivated is very inviting, relaxing and friendly. This will be a regular spot for me. Plus karaoke Thursday nights? How fun.“

“Great place! Food is excellent 10/10“

“Wonderful place to meet up for tea, coffee and snacks“

“Best coffeeshop on Hertel I’ve tried and the employees aren’t snobs when you ask to customize your order. Fresh baked bagels in-house and various cream cheese flavors. They also cater to vegetarians if you need those options. Overall glad I stopped and checked this place out. Will come visit again and highly recommend!!!“

“Delicious ! Will be back !“

“LINDA'S BEAN PIE CAFE (LBPC) IS AN ALL NATURAL FOOD PRODUCTION.“

“My best friend and I had the privilege of meeting these two wonderful women in Toronto after a concert. We had no cell service to call a taxi to bring us back to our Air BNB and kept getting wrong directions from everyone. We had stopped them to ask if they knew where to pick up a taxi, and instead of giving us the run around, like everyone else, they gave us a ride to our Air Bnb an hour out of their way with no hesitation. And for that they will always have 2 new customers for life, and anytime anyone we know goes to Buffalo we will recommend they visit their establishment. We couldn’t have been more grateful for them, their character alone tells me what kind of business they run! Please everyone tell a friend to tell a friend about their business. Thank you again ladies ❤️“

“BEST PIZZA in town on a Wednesday night! Friendly, warm atmosphere where you will feel right at home and meet up with old friends and make new ones. The Belgian waffles are amazing. Stop in on a Saturday for a DELICIOUS panini and cup of soup if you are on campus or out running errands. And wind up your visit with a stop at the Catholic store and you won't walk out empty handed. I can never pass up a card or necklace and I bought my mother in law a baking dish and cutting board for Christmas. I could go on and on but you need to come see for yourself! Besides, my daughter Katie volunteers in the cafe and it's one time all week that I get served by her!!! LOL“

“I stopped by for breakfast while visiting Buffalo before a Great Lakes cruise. I was staying at the Hyatt Regency hotel, and their breakfast options were overpriced, and they couldn't even offer an omelette. So, I walked a few blocks over to the Westin Hotel, after reading about Jake's Cafe in the Westin's first floor lobby.

I ordered a ham and cheddar omelette and some breakfast potatoes. The food was so good that I told the chef/server two different times how much I enjoyed it. It was absolutely the breakfast I was hoping it would be.

I'm kind of a fanatic about breakfast potatoes. Usually, when you get them at a restaurant, they are cooked in a frying pan, or on a griddle. Here at Jake's Cafe I'm pretty sure they deep-fried them, like French Fries. This gave the potatoes a fantastic taste, and a wonderful crispiness on the outside, yet soft on the inside. I actually liked them better than about 95% of the breakfast potatoes I've ever had in restaurants. It was really a delightful surprise for a little cafe within a hotel.

The icing on the cake was the good attitude of the server, which is really important at breakfast. Nobody wants to start the day with a grumpy server, and this girl was very pleasant.

With tax, it cost me less than $19... far less than the crappy breakfast at the Sheraton would have cost me. This was a great way to start the day!“

“Great spot with a great selection! Luv the breakfast options and the coffee too!“

“Amazing brunch experience at this local, family owned restaurant!! The hand painting throughout this restaurant is so beautiful and makes this place unique and standout. I was welcomed and promptly served by the hostess. Everything was fresh, hot, and delicious!!! Zero complaints here, nothing but a pleasant experience. Highly recommend dining here!!!“
