North Buffalo’s Hertel Avenue stands out as a great place to work and play. Among other things it is home to a great selection of restaurants offering a variety of cuisines including Middle Eastern, Japanese and Contemporary American.

terrific shop..... I have been looking for Cabernet Francs to try and Chateau Buffalo has some nice options that are NYS wines.....I found the Miles Wine Cellars Cab Franc 2002 to be delicious.
The shop owner is personable and the store has a small, cozy wine bar for sampling.
