Mark and Lisa were working and even though it was time for them to go home, they opened the door for my dad. He needed a pool cover and a pillow. They took down his order, went wherever to get it, and cashed him out. All with a smile and what my dad described as 'excellent customer service'. He came home so happy that they were able to accommodate him like that.

They did not show and did not bother to come. Even after calling and leaving a voicemail about the appointment no response was ever made after calling again to try and have it serviced. they abruptly cut you off and send you off to the next person to not deal with you. Then deny you even having an appointment with them, even though you called. And this was with dealing with the owner as well, who was extremely rude and inappropriate to his customers. I cannot recommend enough to not do business with them and find a company that is more professional. If this owner is a representation of the company, I am surprised they've remained in business this long. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.

The smash session is by appointment since they have 2 rooms and they have their own hours since this is the owners' side gig. They also have different packages, but we chose the standard package. First thing, they have their own protective gear for you to wear so you don't hurt yourselves, but they do also have you sign a waiver. They give you a choice of a "weapon" to smash things with - baseball bat or a gold club. They had a milk carton of glass wear for us to smash together and even a barrel. What I love is that you release all this stress and sweat so much from one session! Smash Brothers Rage room is something totally different in Buffalo and I highly recommend this place for date location or for a team bonding event. I went here with my boyfriend and this was an amazing place for us to "grow our love" lol. Another thing that I love is that they recycle the things you're smashing or you can bring in your own things to smash. This would be the perfect place to use a baseball bat to smash a picture of your exes lol. Highly recommend!

We started the trail near Fort…read moreGeorge Historical Site in Niagara on the Lake and biked nearly all the way to Niagara Falls. Along the way there are several fruit stands and attractions like: the flower clock, views of the Niagara River, Niagara Botanical Gardens, the Whirlpool Aero Car and Niagara Falls Whirlpool Adventure Course, etc. You dip down into a little town on the way that has plenty of character. On our way back we stopped at a wonderful produce and gift store, Walkers Country Market, and relaxed with an ice cream and bought some butter tarts to go, a delicious reward for all the exercise. Please note: the trail has a few challenging spots, a couple hills. But other than that, most riders should have a very good time.

The Niagara River Recreation Trail is a beautiful trail running all the way from…read moreNiagara-on-the-Lake to Fort Erie, past the botanical gardens, wineries, fruit stands, historical houses, art galleries and of course, the incredible Lake Ontario and Niagara Falls. While staying at Harbour House Hotel on a recent vacation, I was able to utilize this trail to continue my training for an upcoming race. The trail begins at Ricardo Street and Nelson Street (directly across from Nelson Park, a TINY waterfront park) and continues along a mostly flat path, all the way to the falls {there is one major hill right before the Botanical Gardens!} The trail is paved and mostly shaded once you get past Fort George and is a 22.6km walk/run/bike to the Falls. FYI: the Botanical Gardens are a much more manageable feat if you're looking for a nice bike ride, about 15.2km (takes about an hour from the start of the trail)! The trail gets busy during the day, but is quiet in the morning, although you will regularly see bikers/runners and dog walkers even at early hours, but a much lower 'nosy' crowd. There are lots of picnic tables, grills and you'll even find some parks along the trail with bathrooms. I didn't see any water fountains. The trail has kilometer markers every km, which makes for a convenient way to track your distance. There are many small parking lots along the trail with free parking (occasionally you'll see a paid parking lot, this is most likely in conjunction with a historic house, just go a little further down the road, and you'll find a free spot in no time!) I highly recommend checking out this trail if you're a runner, biker or just looking for a beautiful walking trail while in Niagara-on-the-Lake.

I had my…read morebachelor party here, they worked really well with us, were super awesome hosting us, and overall I had a great experience. I was just there for a friend's birthday, and the place is really setup well for a party. They have pool tables, dart boards, a place to just hang out and enjoy a drink. It is also a plus to be able to join a softball league or volleyball league at such a great place. I have never had a bad experience there, and we will continue to go there to support them as well as root our friends on in their various leagues.

Some people really love the food here... me, not so much, unfortunately…read more I play on a softball league sponsored by the dug out. Co-ed on Friday nights. It's definitely a lot of fun, I just don't usually stay to eat. The pizza I tried tasted like it was a frozen pizza honestly, and the wings I tried were apparently dry rub, and they were just too dry for me... go figure. I wish I had known here were different options for the wings (I forget what sauce it was, and I didn't specify so I got the dry). If I had to guess, it was a Cajun type. I do like their loaded fries though, and their quesadillas are pretty good, but if I remember correctly, the jalapeños in them were pretty spicy. Their bathrooms are always disgusting. Sometimes no toilet paper, the floor is always wet, sometimes the paper towel dispenser isn't working, and well today, the toilet itself wasn't even working. All the dirt from the baseball fields (plus there's an outdoor beach volleyball area) gets into the restaurant.

This was more fun than expected. We went as a part of the package to 3 attractions. You are given…read moregloves as you enter to ensure you don't smudge the mirrors. That's great because I've been to some where the smudges really give it away. This attraction really isn't scary but there are some parts that might make you jump. About 3 mirrors reveal statues that speak to you when you pass them. Again, not scary but might catch you off guard. I like how there were different sections too besides mirrors. One was a circus maze made of hanging banners and curtains another was a blowup hallway that was pitch black and you had to push through it. We had a really good time but just wish there were more opportunities to take a photo. Be sure to keep your arms outstretched to avoid collisions!

There isn't really any seating .. a couple of benches and picnic tables. You have to bring your own chair in. They cut the "field" in half for the younger kids (referring to soccer here because that's what I come here for) and this results in balls from other games going on coming onto each other's playing fields. The worst part of this place is that smells like sweaty .. ummm .. "soccer" balls. As soon as you walk in the smell hits you in the face. I smell it every time I come in and I want to throw up. The turf is nice. I will say that.

In another life, when I was a reporter, I did a story on this place. I never checked it out. My…read moreaunt has always talked about it and we all made plans a week after to go for a brisk walk on the trail. There are a few entrances onto the trail; the two main entrances, the start and end, or vice versa, of the trail is Union Road by the junk yard, across from the Erie County Water Authority (there is a parking lot), and Medina Street. If you start on Medina Street, you have to cross William Street to continue on the trail. I would recommend just starting on Strawn Ave., to avoid the traffic and potential hazardous experiences crossing traffic. If you don't start the trail from the two end points, you can pick it up at Stradtman Street, which has a parking lot, Kennedy, St. Felix, and Ludwig Ave. We were there around 7pm on a Monday and it was pretty active with walkers, bikers, and dog walkers. It is a great little trail parallel with the railroad track. I like that they made use of this space for recreational purposes instead of not doing anything with it at all. It is peaceful and a cool path. I would recommend going with at least one other person because it is secluded, by train tracks, and you don't want to end up on a true crime podcast. I didn't feel in jeopardy at all, but you always want to be safe. We brought Cooper, my mom's dog, and he ended up going to the bathroom twice. We only had one bag. It was ok though, because along the trail there are bags for such things and garbage cans. I loved that feature. It keeps the trail extra clean too. Wildlife report: Bunnies. No deer on the night we went.
