It’s Ferry St. from the curve at Marriott Courtyard to Drummond Rd./Main St.
Do we know that this is still going to be Al Mac’s? There was recently an add in the paper for people for an IHOP (International House of Pancakes) opening in Niagara Falls, and the address to drop off resumes was the Capri restaurant, which just happens to be across the street. Usually, they are pretty close to opening when they start looking for people, and I couldn’t think of any other restaurant renos going on right now.
Also, the new Shopper’s on Lundy’s Lane is coming along nicely, should be open before summer.

I guess I am. I think it must be whether I log on at home or work. I’ll see if I can get them to match

Aw, I would actually hate to see this place become an IHop…. My husband and I had many early morning breakfasts at Al Mac’s and we loved the people there, they were so friendly to us and were so helpful about taking time to talk to us about the area during our first visit. We appreciated the atmosphere as a way to start the day off.

We had dinner there once as well and both that and the breakfasts were wonderful. Loved their blueberry muffins and their ham and eggs.
Such a shame if Al Mac’s is to be no more…

With regards to the building next to Build-A-Bear, I’m not sure what is going on there. I took a picture (that I haven’t posted yet) and noticed that there is a sign on the door. I keep meaning to take a look at the sign before I post the picture. Hopefully tomorrow…

I forgot about the IHOP, but it makes sense, because I remember them wanting to build it in that general area.

I also noticed the renovations next to Mia’s. What was there before?

All I can think what was there near Mama Mias is Mama Leone’s or Niagara Bargain Basement. Your guess is as good as mine.

For the American side its the last day of spring break for most of the kids, also the beautiful weather just makes people come out after being couped up in the house all winter.

Thanks Graham E. Once we saw the new sign (I posted it on a new post), we figured that, but we appreciate your confirmation. Come back any time!
