In our series, 30 Days of Bicycle Benefits, you will be introduced to 30 new businesses that will offer you great discounts for riding your bike and wearing your helmet. Thirty businesses that want to say, "Thank you," for choosing not to drive your car.
Merge - 15% off all food
Consistent supporters of making Buffalo Bicycle Friendly; Merge was one of the first establishments to carry Flying Bison's Rusty Chain! They have opened their doors for a fundraising party, partnered with us on the Wheel to Reel summer movie series (coming again this July) and will be hosting our Member Appreciation Happy Hour tonight from 4:30pm - 6:30pm. We love Merge, and as a Bicycle benefits business, you should too.
Young entrepreneurs that build their dreams in their business will inevitably pour so much of their heart and soul into the project that their personality is bound to show up everywhere. That's certainly one reason why people like Merge so much. Sarah and Eliza Schneider, the sister team behind Merge are really likable people and you can feel it in Merge. The restaurant exudes friendly, inviting and happy. In fact, the prevailing vibe at Merge is best described as delight, with frequent bouts of goofy and groovy. It's no wonder really. Merge serves feel good food. Healthy, locally sourced, flavor festivals surf around on serving trays before landing on your table.
Though the dream was once to have a restaurant with a garden attached, Sarah and Eliza found that they were more excited about supporting the growing community of small, local farms for their produce and meat. "Sourcing locally makes us a part of Buffalo's living ecosystem through collaboration. Buffalo is a changing community."
So grab your bike, your appetite and maybe your dancing shoes. Chances are when you're done eating there's going to be some great band playing and you'll want to "Rusty up your Chain" with Flying Bison and dance around with all the happy, well-fed folks at Merge. Use your Bicycle Benefits membership and get 15% off all food! Keep your eyes peeled, Merge is always up to something cool.

1. Buy a sticker. Join Bicycle Benefits and get your sticker... or buy one from ANY NEW participating business for $5.00. Don't forget that stickers are FREE with a GO-Buffalo membership.
2. Put the sticker on your helmet.

I took some out-of-town business guests to Merge, this week. A pleasant experience, although the ordering-at-the-bar bit seemed strange. My curried-chicken-salad sangwitch was delicious and big enough to be lunch AND dinner, and I'm a big eater. Nice place!
