12 Best American Restaurants in Cooperstown

“I’ve been coming to Doubleday Cafe for years and the never disappoint.“

“Love Mel’s at 22 on every visit to Cooperstown. Dine on patio, in bar, or fine dining room. All three are great. Reservations Recommended.“

“A thousand, thousand thank you-s to the staff at The Lake Front, especially James. We had wedding reservation changes that they handled with professionalism, patience, and charm. We have international guests as well as folks coming from the East and West coasts ... we will sleep better tonight knowing that the accommodations have been flawlessly arranged.“

“Was there for a corporate retreat. Food was delicious. Place is beautiful and immaculate, owner was an awesome host. Highly highly recommend if you’re in the Cooperstown area!“

“Honestly this café is a complete vibe, only being open a few short months it has completely taken the town by storm! This place draws in not only the locals but people from our away come just to get a glimpse of the amazing Cafe!

Things are always changing seasonally so try to keep up! Right now it’s fall which in my opinion is the best time to get drinks! But I would be remiss if I did not mention my absolutely favorite latte, strawberry pop tart, wow, never had anything like it. They have a whole variety of sandwiches, but honestly, they’re mini pancakes have my heart!“

“Simply the best! Highly recommended!!“

“Today I had their bakery pizza. Wow!! It was just great!! Some of the best, I have had in a very look time, bread and donuts are great too. Just a really good old fashion bakery.“

“We ate breakfast at Cooperstown Diner October 28. It is tiny but don’t let size fool ya! It was delicious!! My husband’s pancakes were so fluffy. My French toast were some of the best I’ve ever had. The bacon cooked to perfection. Visiting the “Hall” from ATL, we wanted to soak up as much local culture as possible. I had found this diner online. I’m so glad we decided to eat there. If you are in Cooperstown… don’t miss this gem.“

“Amazing food, amazing owners and staff. Always helpfull during events and are just down to earth folks.“

“Great atmosphere, friendly people made this west coast family visit fun as we watched the SF 49ers play the Cleveland Browns on the big tv.“

“We were seated immediately on the second floor patio. Atmosphere was laid back and food was great! We were there during hall of fame induction weekend so it was incredibly busy but the kitchen and wait staff did a terrific job! I would highly recommend this establishment.“

“Laid back market/deli in Cooperstown. They make good subs and are friendly. I would consider stopping in if you need something on the go or for the ride home!
