Belmont - Buffalo, NY Area Guide

Experience the low-key lifestyle of this northern Buffalo community

Suburb Dining Parks Shopping Walkable Schools

About seven miles north of Downtown Buffalo, the small Belmont neighborhood cultivates a tranquil suburban environment, with tree-shaded sidewalks and manicured lawns lining the streets. Single-family homes are the most noticeable features of the community, although Belmont also hosts a diverse mix of apartments and condos as well. Sheridan Drive on the northern edge of the neighborhood is the nearest place to find a bite to eat or do a little shopping: Grab a frozen treat at Anderson’s Custard, a local fixture since 1953, or relax with a drink after work at the low-key Caputi’s Pub. To the east, Lincoln Park offers a great spot to get some fresh air, with a public swimming pool and an ice arena allowing you to stay active year-round. For a more specialized afternoon of fun, head over to Adventure Landing Buffalo, a popular family fun center which includes miniature golf and an arcade. The expansive Boulevard Mall to the northeast anchors a large cluster of shopping centers, the University at Buffalo School of Public Health is a couple of blocks to the east, and Downtown Buffalo is just a few minutes down the road, allowing you to make the most of the City of Good Neighbors anytime.
