We were there today and brought home the turkey pot pie and the lamb hand pie. Both were delicious! we will be back! Between the Pink Pig cafe and the Essex Ice Cream cafe, there are two excellent choices for a coffee, breakfast, lunch or snack. what a cute town too!
Lunch and breakfast items are delicious! Try the variety of pizzas, calzones , quiches, desserts and cinnamon buns… all to die for! Everything is homemade, the owner is onsite, so friendly and welcoming/ an absolute gem! Be sure to add this as a stop if ever in upper state New York or want a quick ferry ride from Vermont. Worth a visit.
Their specialty coffees, homemade baked goods, soups, and hand pies are out of this world yummy and all made with love! Their indoor seating is super cozy and feels like it’s right out of a Hallmark movie! Every time I go into the Cafe their staff is super friendly! What an asset to our community!! Thank you to The Essex Ice Cream Cafe for being in Essex, NY!

Specific meals praised include the turkey pot pie, lamb hand pie, carrot muffins, scones, cheesecake, coffee cake, and soups. The ice cream is super yummy, though the owner’s homemade creations are truly the star. Coffee is hot and delicious with free refills. Prices are very reasonable.
