About this property
3165 Main Street is a restaurant building in the University District, a half mile from UB South Campus. *Lake Effect Diner* has been a long-established restaurant brand and location for decades. The Lake Effect Diner is 4,305 square feet with a capacity of 50 and potential for an additional 80 included in a design plan for an addition (blueprints available). The Lake Effect Diner is, in part, a vintage, 1952 Mountain View Diner that was transported from Wayne Pennsylvania in 2001. The Vintage diner is the dining room while a new building was constructed that includes a large kitchen and full basement making up 2 stories of cooking, prep, and baking space. The Lake Effect Diner has been featured on the Food Networks *Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives* twice, including recently in 2025. Newly updated, over equipped, and meticulously maintained.
