    Double cheeseburger. Remember to say "No salt, please" or you'll get lots of salt.

    It's a gift shop. Wait! It's a restaurant. Wait! It's a bar. Wait! It's a convenience store. Well, whatever it is, it's way cool. Have a cheeseburger with fries or tater tots. Get some gifts and Buffalo memorabilia. An eclectic place, for sure. It's easy to get at on #2 William or #19 Bailey (soon to be BRT) buses. There's some steps to negotiate.

    Cute place to come and get some food and a beer. Over at the Clinton Bailey market. Stop in and patronize your neighbors.

    By word of mouth we found this place in our neighborhood. They had a pet adoption event going on so it was busy but still had lots of fun. Walked around to look at everything for sale. Lots of local vendors including 2 that reside in the terminal. Great way to promote your local friends. On top of that they have a kitchen and sell some good food. They also sell beer, wine and ciders. So you can enjoy some shopping then sit and get some lunch. We will be back and nice to see them utilizing the terminal for good.

    What a cool place! Very cool, dog friendly! Atmosphere is a Cracker Barrel type place shopping through all Buffalo made items. The food is all very fresh and fun! I had a wonderful tuna melt with tater tots. My friend had a buffalo chicken sandwich We both shopped afterwards and found some very cool items.

    Went to their grand opening this Saturday with a friend and I found it to be a very cool space . Part Buffalo souvenir shop and part cafe... we decided to do lunch here and I'm happy I did . I ordered a BLT with cheese (a steal at $8.95 ) and Genesee Kolsh ($4 ) . Service was fast and friendly plus that BLT was perfectly prepared with crisp bacon . With our purchase , we got a coupon for $5 off a $20 or more purchase in the store , so I bought a Buffalo puzzle and some chips . I will definitely be back , especially since their patio outside looked so inviting !

    We are very lucky to live in an area with a high concentration bistro burger bars. The 189 Burger…read moreis next-door to the famous Bar Bill. Parking and Main Street is extremely difficult due to the popularity of these places so we parked down behind the store in a large community parking lot and walked up through the alley to the front door. We noticed immediately there was a huge overflow crowd. waiting to get into the Bar Bill, but we fought our way through to get into 189 Burger. If only those people out on the street knew what they were missing, they would give up their spot in line and join us at this great little restaurant instead! 189 Burger is well known for its expansive beer menu, but we were only interested in the burgers. I was intrigued by the description of the Bang Bang Burger. It came topped with Bang Bang sauce, cheddar cheese and Calabrian butter and crispy onions. Absolutely delicious! My husband ordered the Greek burger, a masterpiece with Tzatziki , lemon ginger, jalapeño, red pepper, chickpea pesto, and pickled red onions, seeded bun! Scrumptious!

As you enter from Main Street the front houses a long traditional bar with a few tables.on one side and then further back you can enter the patio or continue to the small but quiet dining room. This place was even busy with a good lunch time crowd. There is a public parking lot behind with a nearby aisle to cut thru to Main St., which makes it convenient. Our.waitress was friendly and attentive. Now onto the food. The burgers were good and cooked as ordered. I wasn't crazy with the sweetness of my choice; but wanted to try something different. The maple bourbon cream was a bit too much for me. The bourbon bacon burger was a better choice. They do have some unique combinatio s thay separate them from.a typical burger place.
