Thomas F. Higgins Riverfront Park
Named for a former county sheriff native to South Buffalo, this 3½-acre (1.4-ha) park is located on the Bailey Peninsula, at the junction of Cazenovia Creek and the Buffalo River on the west side of Bailey Avenue (parking is at the northwest corner of Bailey and McKinley Parkway; a footpath leads over the creek to the peninsula). Along with the Seneca Bluffs upstream, Higgins Riverfront Park is different from the other elements of the Buffalo River Greenway in that the site was never used for heavy industry, being located too far upstream for freighters to go and away from any railroad tracks. Today, it's a wetland habitat for the type of wildlife that frequented the area prior to urbanization, such as fox, snapping turtle, beaver, white-tailed deer, and birds such as kingfisher and great blue heron. At the bank of the river there's a kayak launch and some nice places for fishermen to cast their lines, or you can take it all in while strolling along one of the manicured walking trails.

Griffin's Irish Pub
You'll find a friendly (if decidedly earthy) experience at pretty much any Irish pub you may happen across in South Buffalo, but if that gregarious camaraderie is an especially important element of the bar experience for you, put Griffin's near the top of your list. And if you're interested in dipping your toes into the local and regional craft beer scene — say, with a Ringside Irish Red or something from Flying Bison — but don't want to get too crazy with it, do the same. (And if not, don't worry: you'll still find Irish pub staples like Jameson whiskey, Guinness, and all your favorite big-brand domestics on tap too.)
