It seems like we write one of these stories every week, but another popular restaurant has announced on social media that it is closing down. It looks like Sunday Night was the last night they were open.

Another Popular Bar Closes In Western New York

According to a post on their Facebook page, Pubski's Pub is officially closed. Located on Williams Street in Buffalo, they had been open for 5 years before making their closing announcement over the weekend on social media.

They pointed out that the building in which the pub is located was sold to a new owner, and that led the owners of the Pub to shut down.

Popular Burger Spot Closed In 2026

Another popular burger place closed its doors in 2026 as well. The owners of Allen Burger Venture announced on social media that they closed at the end of Janurary. In the post, the owners cited a change in the food scene in Buffalo and the challenges faced by small, independently owned businesses as the reason they are closing down.

The good news is that there are still plenty of amazing places to grab a bite to eat in the 716.
