Queen City Amusement Company

Queen City Amusement Company has an amazing display that I can't help but stare at! Jay also has tons of knowledge on the physical rides and, of course, the miniature rides! I look forward to seeing the display at the Erie County Fair this year!

The Cheesy Chick Cafe & Food Truck

Delicious! And CHEESY! I also had a grilled Nutella creation that was really yummy a while ago, if you have a sweet tooth! I'll stop every time I see the food truck.
