Best Fine Dining in Welland

"The nothernmost winery along Niagara River Sub-Appellation is Peller Estates Winery, which started out from British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley. Here we were offered a flight of three wines, which included the winemaker’s selection along with the staff’s selection of 2016 Vintage Sauvignon Blanc and 2016 Vintage Pinot Noir. Winemaker Katie Dickieson’s selection is the Andrew Peller Signature Series Ice Cuvee, one of their most awarded wines."

"Peller Estates Winery is arguably one of the most beautiful wineries in the area, offering stunning views of the Niagara Escarpment and surrounding countryside. Reminiscent of an Old World French chateau, this impressive winery is set majestically amongst 25-acres of lush vineyards. The winery is beautifully constructed, and features a grand foyer complete with a magnificent fireplace."

"The Whirlpool Aero Car was originally designed by renowned Spanish engineer Leonardo Torres Quevedo back in 1916. Still functioning today, the antique cable car ride provides tours of the Niagara Gorge and offers stunning views of the swirling Niagara Whirlpool and the Class 6 whitewater rapids of the Niagara River. Though the Whirlpool Aero Car travels between two points of the Canadian shore, riders will actually cross the international border line between Canada and the United States a total of four times each trip due to the way the river elbows."

"Suspended high over the Niagara River, the Whirlpool Aero Car passes directly over Niagara Whirlpool—a swirling, whitewater vortex created by conflicting currents. The antique cable car has been on the go since 1916, carrying passengers out to the bend of the river, where they dangle over and gawk at the dangerous whirling rapids below.More"

"Looking to soar over the Great Gorge from a 99-year old antique cable car?.

"Down Lundy’s Lane is La Farina, a relatively young bakery and deli (opened in 2000) that also offers handmade frozen pasta, imported Italian groceries and an array of cafeteria-style hot prepared meals. But since the subject here is bakery, we’d be remiss not to focus on the simple staple that fuels this spot: bread. La Farina rivals Portage for the best Italian loaves in the city, with a soft, chewy crumb and sharp golden crust."

"Located in the historic yet trendy Hotel Lafayette in downtown Buffalo, Public Espresso has a cool vibe and even cooler coffee.
