Great place for a break during your visit near Niagara area. Very beautiful new building plenty of chairs and tables to rest, huge lobby area, even few benches to sleep on, there's a cafe/store inside the building. Check for opening times. Lots of information about events, historical area and even some guides for further info on daily events in that area.The rest rooms are very clean and very well maintained. 3 EV chargers, kids play areas, dog paths. I felt very safe and welcoming. Separate parking lots for Cars and Trucks/Buses

Clean, neat, organized. Has room to sit down in a lounge and eat, wifi as well. There's a small place to grab food and also souvenirs. It was beautiful. There's a bouletin board with News and events going on. There's even the I❤NY sign outside too. Great place to go as you're passing through!

This welcome center is worth stopping for just for the restaurant and shop with food and items made in New York. There is limited information on the area, but if you ask the people working in the restaurant, they have additional information behind the counter, along with maps. The restaurant staff is a wealth of information. The large map on the wall is full of great information. There is a small number of brochures and no information desk. There is a nice area to sit and eat or relax. Restrooms are clean. Overall, worth the stop.

This was probably the nicest rest area I’ve seen. Very easy to get to. The building looks brand new with some information posted up about the history of the area. There’s also a small shop opened during business hours for your snacking and coffee needs. The bathrooms are super clean. Outside there is a place for kids to play and a fenced dog run for your pup to play. Ample parking. There’s also 3 charging stations for your EVs. If you have a Tesla, you’ll need to have a CCS adapter, your tesla or the J1722 will not be compatible with these chargers.

A great place to relax for a quick break on a long drive. Immaculate restrooms. Displays of New York history and even an interactive quiz on NY. Ship shaped playground for kids outside. Beautiful wooden interior with tables and chairs to relax for a bite to eat. Has a Taste NY store with limited hot sandwiches made to order, an espresso bar, and other goods made in NY a state.
