Kenmore A Top Ten Neighborhood

Enjoy Our Comforts

The American Planning Association named Kenmore one of the top ten great neighborhoods in the United States. It’s easy to see why; this turn of the 20th century village just north of Buffalo features tree-lined streets and well-kept homes surrounding a vibrant central business district. Long-running businesses like King Condrell’s Candy and Ice Cream Shop and the Plaka Greek restaurant that have served the village for years have been joined by newcomers like Spot Coffee, Jay’s Artisan Pizza, La Davina Tacos, Clay Handi Pakistani restaurant, India Star Indian restaurant, and Home Taste Chinese restaurant. It all makes Kenmore an appealing blend of old and new.
