Today we heard some sad news, that the Lafayette Tap Room BBQ & Blues Saloon in downtown Buffalo, NY has CLOSED permanently. I called and the person who answered the phone at the Lafayette Tap Room confirmed that last Saturday was the last day that they were open & that the Lafayette Tap Room is CLOSED. We're sorry to see them go. There are not a lot of live music nightclub-bar type establishments downtown. And, none that we know of that feature blues-rock music. The Lafayette Tap Room also served up some terrific barbecue including smoked Buffalo chicken wings and fall off the bone ribs. We've had some really delicious meals there. Unfortunately it was a well kept secret. Sorry to see the Lafayette Tap Room go. We hope that the building developers will try to fill the space with a place that has the same type of atmosphere, music & flavor. It was a great representation of Buffalo's culture, like something that would be featured on the Travel Channel. Sorry to see the Lafayette Tap Room go.
