#OnThisDay In 1947, Your Host Restaurants is incorporated. Initially starting as a hot dog stand on Delaware Ave. in Kenmore, the restaurant’s popularity boomed, replacing established Buffalo chain restaurants like Deco. At Your Host’s peak, they had 31 restaurants across WNY. Sadly, Your Host could not survive competition from convenient coffee shops and fast-food spots. In 1993, Your Host filed for bankruptc, closing their remaining 11 stores. Did you ever get to eat at a Your Host? Where was your “Your Host” restaurant?
