Circa 1970 I have fond memories of the all night Your Host restaurants in the Buffalo area.

Back then I used to drink at bars like the Park Meadow and Kerner's on Hertel ( now Checker's) but Your Host was there at 4 AM.

How many were there?

They were a chain - two I used to go in -- one in the plaza at Great Arrow/Delaware, another in Kenmore south of Sheridan on Delaware -- basically, you had them all over. I think there was one in a plaza at Main and Transit (south of Main) -- same floor plan, counter, and it is still a little restaurant.

Minor correction: The Delton plaza and the Your Host it once contained are (were) just north of the Youngman Expressway, not south. I frequented that Your Host more than a few times at very late hours. That is if we didn't go to the one at Midcity Plaza in North Tonawanda.

Default Locations of Your Host

wasn't there a Your Host on the corner of Warren Ave. and Delaware in Kenmore? I also remember one on the corner of Westgate and Delaware Avenue. Am I correct? Late 1960s

Your Host – Buffalo Stories Archives & Blog

There was one in East Aurora at the Aurora Village Shopping Center. I used to have lunch there and they would wash the floors with Ammonia during lunch and it was all I could do to keep my food down. There was one at the Harlem Sheridan Plaza as well, one night my friend ate a wow (monster burger with fried onions) and passed out (enough grease to keep your car running for a month). I remember Strawberry Short Cake was abbreviated Strawberry Sht Cake on the check.
