The first retail component of Delaware North’s new global headquarters at 250 Delaware Avenue in downtown Buffalo, N.Y., recently opened for business: Jake’s Café.
Operated by Delaware North’s Patina Restaurant Group, the 20-seat restaurant is now open for breakfast (7 
a.m. to 11 a.m.) and lunch (11 a.m. to 3 p.m.).
Breakfast offerings include cinnamon brioche French toast with apple slaw and crème fraiche, an egg sandwich on a Kaiser roll and three-filling omelets. Lunch options include a cheeseburger on a potato bun, a cheddar-fontina grilled cheese sandwich and build-your-own salads. There is also a selection of freshly-prepared grab-and-go options, including sandwiches, salads and smoothies.
Soon-to-follow openings at 250 Delaware are Patina 250 – the formal restaurant next door to Jake’s Café – and The Westin Buffalo hotel, both operated by Delaware North.
