Anyone from the greater Western New York area can tell you about Wegmans! It's a pop culture icon around here. While in many ways it's your average grocery store, Wegmans is also a lovely place for hot-bar items, take out pizza, soups, a cafe and more. Be sure to check out the train in the candy aisle!

There's something magical about ice skating right in the heart of downtown. Perhaps it's the lights, the music, or the hot chocolate. Bring a date or your family for a fun night on the town. There are many local places to grab a bite to eat near by and many coffeeshops (like SPoT on Delaware) to get warm afterwards.
