"Niagara Brewing Company is another awesome craft brewery in Niagara Falls, and they’re located right in Clifton Hill!. They’ve got a selection of signature craft beers, including a Niagara Icewine Beer – say what?!. They don’t have a huge food menu, but you can definitely grab a simple appetizer like guac & chips or a heartier meal like a burger."

"Niagara Brewing Company aims to brew beers that proudly represent Canada’s brewing heritage and today’s innovative craft beer scene. The brewery is located at the corner of Falls Avenue and Clifton Hill and just steps from Niagara Falls. Phone: +1 905-374-5247Web: https://shop.niagarabrewingcompany.com"

"Devil’s Punchbowl Conservation Area consists of an incredible geologic wonder, the gorge, and its waterfalls. The Devil’s Punch Bowl formed at the end of the last ice age when huge meltwater rivers plunged over the escarpment. There are many colourful layers of rocks in the gorge, such as Cabot Head grey shale, Queenston Formation red shale, shale dolomite and limestone."

"This tall thin waterfall pours over a deep multi-coloured gorge that's a history lesson in geology and one of the most stunning natural formations along the Niagara Escarpment. Look for the huge cross perched nearby for more spectacular views of Stoney Creek and Hamilton Harbour."

"This one might be a bit on the difficult side for young families, but we thought we would include it for the picture alone. Aside from the unique rock formations, a variety of birds can be seen in the vicinity."

"Conveniently located across from the Shaw Festival Theatre with a large patio and a stunning dining room and lounge, every detail of this exciting restaurant will be sure to tickle your senses and tantalize your taste buds. Chef Jason Dobbie has created an array of dishes that are as delicious as they are inventive. Visit them at: www.niagarasfinest.com/properties/zeesgrill/"

"It’s walking distance to the Shaw Festival Theatre so it’s a perfect place for a bite before or after a Shaw Fest show. It has a glass art structure just outside the restaurant, so you can’t miss it. It has a casual yet modern vibe at the restaurant with a spacious outdoor patio and terrace."

"Zee’s offers seasonalselections, with a menu that changes according to what’s fresh. For a high-end gourmet breakfast, Zee’s is the place to be. The breakfast menu, served from 8:00am to 10am, features free run eggs, local dairy and produce, and fresh ingredients."

"You probably think you’ve heard everything you need to know about the Richardson Complex and the lore surrounding the asylum-turned-luxury-hotel on its grounds, but a recent episode of 99 Percent Invisible details its origins as a vision of the Kirkbride Plan (a more humane approach to healing those suffering from mental illness). It was designed by American architect superstar Henry Hobson Richardson, and had to compete against four or five other cities all bidding to host an asylum in Western NY. Buffalo won the bid because we promised an unlimited supply of free water to the facility. Today, what was once a therapeutic home for the mentally ill is one of our citiy’s premier brunch and wedding destinations."

"The overall environment of the Richardson-Olmsted Campus makes me speechless. On the outside, this historic building is great for adding an urban twist to your photos. While on the inside, the building is filled with natural light that allows for the perfect snapshot."

"The colossal cemetery of Forest Lawn lies just a ten minute drive north of the center. Although it is home to thousands of mausoleums, monuments, and sculptures, it looks more like a park than a graveyard as paths and ponds are dotted about its scenic confines. Founded in 1849, it now covers a huge area with the rural cemetery’s delightful design and layout being modeled on the famous Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris."

"A cemetery isn’t usually the first place that comes into mind when you think of family-friendly attractions. But, Forest Lawn Cemetery isn’t your typical burial ground."

"From Business: Cafe 59 serves up some of Buffalo's best wine, beer and cocktails. Offering distinctive handcrafted sandwiches the real gold can be found in the homemade soups,…"

"I got the Bourbon fried rice & falafel, oh my god it was so good. I could not have eaten it all because it was so fulfilling!!. My friends all had gre..."

"What is it: This teeny restaurant has only eight tables and, since it doesn’t take reservations, you’ll need to get in early or be prepared to wait. Don’t worry: it’s totally worth it. Why go: Come for the best breakfast in downtown Niagara (think omelettes, French toast and breakfast burritos)."

"Welcome to an entire restaurant dedicated to a kid-friendly staple: grilled cheese. Buffalo Melting Point serves up a traditional grilled cheese with your choice of cheese for just $6, or the “Classic Grilled Cheese,” simply American cheese on white bread for $1.99!. Even if your kids are content with the simple stuff, they offer more sophisticated interpretations, such as brie, cheddar, Granny Smith apples, caramelized onions and a drizzle of honey, or provolone with capicola, roasted red onion, tomato, and basil pesto."
