9 Best Wine Bars near Hector

“Delicious burger and wine pairing! Give Red Newt a try for your next weekend lunch, you'll be glad you did! I had the newt burger with fries and a glass of Red Eft. The local ingredients create a hearty meal that fueled me rather than weighed me down. Can't wait to try another burger or a grilled cheese and soup. They put an elegant twist on all they do with bright and friendly staff.“

“Really enjoyed our stay! Clean, well-kept, up-to-date rooms were very comfortable and private. We enjoyed our breakfast as well. Dog friendly is a huge plus. highly recommend and we will definitely be back!“

“Friendly staff, Ian was very personable and friendly. He made us feel welcomed. The cheese selection from local cheese farms were plentiful. Definitely a destination stop.“

“I’ve been here multiple times for brunch with a wine flight or cocktail. Friendly, reliably good service in a lovely spot with a beautiful view. I’ve seen some comments about how there is “no vineyard in sight” which is because their vineyards are a bit further up the lake, where there are more plantings. This is simply their tasting space, and it’s a great one!“

“Visited this restaurant on a whim based on reviews last night after hiking Watkins Glen State Park. IT WAS PHENOMENAL!!!! My husband had the duck and I had the trout. We split the mussels and green salad. The wine the beer everything was fantastic and the staff is very attentive. Definitely going back again!!!!“

“The owner is welcoming and very attentive to customer service and the chef is amazing. Althea's has a carefully selected variety of local wines and beers that give you a chance to taste test in one location. The liquor selection encompasses every taste and the food menu has something for everyone. Will definitely be visiting here on a regular basis.“

“Amazing cappuccino, delicious food & wonderful service. I highly recommend.“

“If you’ve seen the movie “The Menu” this is the Seneca Lake equivalent however without the tragic ending. Watch the movie then go to this place because the food is phenomenal, maybe you’ll see the connection. In all seriousness great place to eat, recommend reservations in advance, if you love German cuisine this is a must while in the Lake Seneca region. Indoor and outdoor seating, it’s just a fantastic place and would tell anyone to go and give it a rip for the experience and food.“

“There is so much more we could recommend. We have eaten here several times and we’ve not been disappointed! But something that touched us just yesterday, 2/2/25, was our waiter Shawn! We took our daughter, who has special needs, to Jerlando’s for lunch and Shawn was amazing. Not only was he an excellent waiter, but our daughter wanted a hug and Shawn never skipped a beat and leaned right in and let our daughter hug him!! His kindness toward her touched our hearts deeply! Thank you Jerlando’s for another fine meal and thank you so much Shawn for your extremely friendly attitude and your heart touching kindness to our special girl!“
