Abino Mills

"Swarovski with a Buffalo twist", in the words of one visitor: at Abino Mills the name of the game is one-of-a-kind, customized etched glass. Browse through the shelves in a stylish, warmly-lit (courtesy of Buffalo's own Litelab, best-known for designing the light-up dance floor in the movie Saturday Night Fever) ambience and peruse your choice of bowls, vases, wine glasses, decanters, and the like, crafted in the finest Riedel and Darlington crystalware and featuring etchings that often reflect a Buffalo theme — the kind of upscale, intimate shopping experience that brings to mind the Delaware Avenue of old.

Address: 255 Delaware Ave.

Buffalo Tap House
Forget the dance clubs of twenty years ago: if you want a real throwback, the Tap House is on hand to show you what your grandparents' Chippewa Street was like. It's a dimly lit dive populated by a friendly and down-to-earth clientele, sporting a food menu of classic pub grub sans any pretentious bells and whistles (beef on weck is a favorite) and a vibe that's old-school through and through. The one area where the Tap House does strut and swagger a bit is on its beer list, with over 30 taps pouring craft brews from around Western New York and the wider Great Lakes region.
