I'll definitely do a change up from the airport. It'll be on our 4 day menu Expand I’m jealous of your 4 day window! It’s always a struggle for me to get in all the WNY food I want to eat! I usually build in enough time to hit my favorite spots, but this year we will be coming in on Saturday from a Friday wedding in Chicago. I’ll have my wife, son and DIL with me and they need to be back at work Monday so catching some insanely early flights Monday morning. It will be the first game in Orchard Park for the wife and DIL and they are pretty excited! In addition to downtown, which has a lot of great options, you may want to consider along Main St in Williamsville where we will be staying this year. Lots of bars and restaurants (and even a brewery, I think) within walking distance of the Hampton Inn there. Whatever you decide, have a GREAT TIME! Go make some memories! 2

A "buddy" of mine recommended Red roof for my first visit to Buffalo. I showed up saw the place and ahem "clientele" and was not happy. Thankfully the super expensive hotel right close by had one room left at like $400 American a night (I'm Canadian) When I got home I punched my buddy so hard he couldn't move his arm for a week.

And get some great wings at Gabe's Gate. You have the Hampton Inn, and Embassy Suites on Delaware. Or the Best Western-On the Avenue as a more cost effective spot, and that is right in the heart of Allentown, a two block walk to Gabe's Gate, Allentown Burger Venture, etc. JMO Expand Depending upon COVID situation it is also really nice to stay on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. Where depends a bit on your budget but I have used the Four Points and found it nice but not spectacular.

stevewin Posted September 2, 2021 Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) Been taking my son since he was young like 7yrs old, but I'll never forget my daughter's first game. She went with us one time was like 10 yrs old, Raiders game on a dark overcast morning. I'll never forget walking through the satellite lots and with the dreary backdrop and fires burning and all manner of loud lubed up characters and the occasional painted Raider fan it probably seemed to her like some hellscape from a Mad Max movie - I saw her eyes get very wide and she sidled over to get right next to me for the rest of the walk in 😛 Edited September 2, 2021 by stevewin 1 1
