Among the trendy boutiques and hair salons on North Buffalo’s main drag of Hertel Ave. is The Wellington Pub (1541 Hertel Ave., Buffalo). On Friday evenings during the Christian Lenten season, the casual dinning room at The Wellington Pub is packed, and rightfully so.

Offering a few varieties of the traditional fish fry, patrons can choose from the traditional beer battered haddock, or grilled with lemon and butter, and there is a junior-size option of both.
Try a cup of their chowder chock-full of fresh haddock and crab. It’s the dill that makes this starter come alive.
Don’t pass up the bacon buttermilk potato salad as a side. The typical scoop of coleslaw will also accompany the plate. For an alternate, The Wellington Pub also serves crab cakes.
The bartenders at The Wellington Pub also know a good pint. Don’t abstain from a perfect pour of Guinness with this meal.
If you go, The Wellington Pub, 1541 Hertel Ave., Buffalo, NY 14216; 716-833-9899.
