Canandaigua

Canandaigua anchors one end of the Canandaigua Lake Wine Trail, a roughly 30-mile Finger Lakes route running from Victor through downtown Canandaigua and along the lake's western shore, lined with wineries, tasting rooms, and a brewery or two. BarFinder lists 37 venues here, with breweries and wineries nearly matching sports bars and classic bars for the top spot - real local names like Peacemaker Brewing Company and Gem Creek Brewing Company anchor the craft side, while On The Rocks Bar & Grill and Reason's Bar & Grill cover more traditional ground. It's a scene built as much around the lake and its wine trail as around a classic downtown bar strip.
