It started out as a nightclub 50 years ago and 25 years later featured table phones to help diners connect — if they so desired — in a warm and delicious environment filled with the wonderful — and romantic — aromas of top-shelf dinner specials, especially seafood and steak which are still the specialties.

“We’re still going strong,” says Bakery Restaurant owner Kevin Young who along with his wife of 55 years, Valerie, and his sons, David, who has taken over as manager, and Kevin Jr., have enjoyed an amazing run serving people from near and far.  Word of their outstanding food spreads quickly, and attracts the local folks and tourists alike, all looking for just the right dinner spot.

The Bakery, located at 3004 Niagara St., is an extremely popular restaurant because it serves great food in a friendly and pleasant atmosphere with owners and staff eager to please.  

Last week a friend and I popped in unexpectedly and were given first-class treatment and amazing food, served with just the right touch by our waitress, Christine Britton.  We both dined on steak sandwiches and I also had a bowl of super clam chowder (yes, it was Friday).  The food was excellent, and my friend is the fussy sort who had nothing but high praise for her dinner.  She loved it!

Kevin has let son David manage things for the last 20 years as he has taken a little time to enjoy life as he moves into the senior phase, one I am quite familiar with.  But despite the problems in the city, Kevin is optimistic things will turn around in Niagara Falls, maybe not today or tomorrow, but within the next five or 10 years.  

“Business is good and we just had a record-breaking week,” he told us as he stopped by our table for a quick chat.  Later, he talked about new hotels springing up around town and the jobs created by the casino where he worked managing the restaurants.  

Kevin helps son, Kevin Jr. in marketing the Bakery and of course the best-selling point is the high quality of the facility, the staff, and the food.

We would certainly encourage anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience to check out the Bakery on Niagara Street and many other fine restaurants in the Falls, like the Como, Fortuna’s, and Michael’s to name a few.

There’s more to see in Niagara Falls besides the great wonder cascading over the falls every day.  There’s a world of fine restaurants waiting for you to visit and the Bakery is certainly one of them.

Craig Bucki Stands Out in Race for Supreme Court, Has All the Tools to Be Strong Judge

By Tony Farina I’ve covered many court proceedings and trials in my more than 35 years as a newspaper and television reporter and I want to make the point at the beginning of this story that whether elected or appointed, some judges are fair and honest and many others fall short of the mark. In other words, the word jurist does not convey skill and knowledge of the law; it is just a role that some serve with distinction, and others do not. By definition, a jurist is a person who has expert or thorough knowledge of the law but

Is Niagara Falls Crisis Self-Inflicted? Lots of Questions, Few Answers

By tony Farina · September 15, 2026

By Tony Farina There are certainly many questions swirling around the mayor’s declaration of a state of emergency in Niagara Falls over trash, blight, and deteriorating streets that was declared back on July 20 and has been extended several times since because, according to Mayor Robert Restaino, the City Council refused to approve contractor agreements. But some observers point to depleted staff at City Hall, like in Public Works and Code Enforcement and other departments, as really self-inflicted wounds that are the underlying reasons work is not getting done in the city. Or is there even more to the story,

NIAGARA FALLS BUILT THE MODERN WORLD ON ITS POWER. IT CAN DO IT AGAIN.

The  Data Center That Answers Hochul’s Objections There was a time when Niagara Falls did not ask Albany whether it was permitted to prosper. The river was here. That was enough. The town had something Albany couldn’t give it. It used what was here. Water. Power. Work. Jobs. Industry. A future. In 1895, the Adams plant took the river and put it into wire. The current went to Buffalo. It changed the industrial world. Tesla supplied the designs. Westinghouse built the machines. Niagara supplied the falling water. Then industries came. Electrochemical. Electrometallurgical. They came because Niagara offered abundant, inexpensive electricity.

Niagara Falls Has Millions of Tourists But Needs to Find a Way to Capture That Wealth

By Tony Farina The City of Niagara Falls, N.Y., boasts one of the world’s greatest natural wonders that people from around the world come to see, but despite incredible tourism numbers of more than nine million visitors a year, the city of now less than 50,000 people is still pretty darn poor. Niagara Falls does not have a tourism problem; it has a tourism-capture problem, and the distinction should be a starting point for a serious new discussion about the city’s future. And ladies and gentlemen, that discussion needs to start now. The question is no longer whether Niagara Falls
