Super cozy cafe. Atmosphere is A+!! Food was really good too, the fries were thin and perfectly crispy. Sooo good. Drink selection was very fun, my wife got a butter beer which was really yummy. Cute little trinkets and gifts scattered around the cafe. We will definitely be returning.

I so want to love this place. It's local. The building it's in is great. The menu is good. The servers are very nice. But I have two issues with it.
First, I never know what I'm going to get. I have had an excellent meal there, then gone back a few weeks later and had something so profoundly "meh" that I wrote it off. Tried again a long time later, again, "meh." But a friend went in the meantime and raved. So what's up with that?
Second, pandemic precautions feel like the bare minimum. I understand the pressures of trying to keep a business alive -- I

The food was amazing, I definitely recommend the sweet potato pancakes! Also bought this really big insulated bottle it's great because I love to have a lot of unsweetened iced tea on me at all times. The service was amazing and I had a great time

Had a relaxing lunch meetup with family all meeting here from other places---Oneonta is a satellite complex of Cooperstown baseball...how do I put it? Industry? Industriousness? My nephew came here from CA to compete w/his baseball travel team against a bunch of other travel teams. Anyway, our extended family enjoyed a meal on the back deck. I had a good local hard cider whose name now escapes me and a french dip sandwich, which were both great. My wife enjoyed the cuban sandwich. Sister-in-law enjoyed her strong cocktail (too strong for her in fact, she said---most would say that's a good bargain
