It's official (AGAIN).  Buffalo is the best place on earth.  It's the best place to buy a house. It's the best place to vacation in. And now, it boasts one of the best bars in America.

Founding Fathers, on Edward Street in the city, has landed on Esquire Magazines "Best Bars In America" list (joined by TWO bars in Rochester! Good Luck on Anderson and Swan Market on Parsells).

Mike Driscoll opened FF's 29 years ago.  The former social studies teacher already had a sizable American history collection, which parlayed itself into an even bigger collection that decorates the bar.

This isn't the first high honor for Founding Fathers. In February of 2015, it made a Buzzfeed list of "19 Bars You Should Drink At Before You Die".  That's quite a statement!

Do you frequent Founding Fathers?  What's your favorite part about it?  Can you share some pics of your times there?

Ever been to either of the two in Rochester?
