Niagara USA is home to dozens of locally owned restaurants that feature regional dishes, old world recipes, and contemporary cuisine. Travel through each of the four regions in Niagara and experience a wide variety of the best foods Niagara has to offer.
After a day at Niagara Falls State Park stop by Caffe Lola (507 Third Street) and enjoy lunch in a trendy restaurant. Stocked with paninis, gelato, homemade soups, and locally produced sodas, you won’t leave hungry. Treat yourself to the lobster mac and cheese, sweet potato frites, or roasted eggplant panini. There is also a children’s menu including a nutella and jelly panino and a variety of pasta dishes.
Lewiston is home to the Brickyard (432 Center Street) that features barbeque that would even make the south jealous. Opt for the ribs, St. Louis or Baby Back, or the chicken and shrimp creole for food so good your stomach will thank you. Be sure to ask for extra hand wipes though.
On your way to the Niagara Wine Trail stop at Gordie Harper’s Bazaar (3333 Lockport Olcott Rd.) in Newfane for homemade meals including meatloaf, turkey, sandwiches, soups, and salads. The family restaurant also features an attached craft store where you will find handmade, unique gifts.
Lockport is home to many great restaurants including Garlock’s (35 South Transit Road) that serves everything from steaks to chicken, and seafood. Family owned and operated, Garlock’s restaurant has been serving steaks since 1962. It is the perfect place for dinner after an afternoon on the Erie Canal.
