The Buffalo Bisons, the city's Minor League baseball team, makes its home in Coca-Cola Field. The team is a Triple-A affiliate of the New York Mets.

Bar-Bill Tavern is the perfect nightlife destination to meet your friends and unwind over a frosty mug of beer and a nice, tasty sandwich. This rustic but appealing bar is housed in a timber-framed building and is made even more appealing by the friendly staff and equally amiable patrons.
