“The atmosphere is fascinating. Loved the billiards table and darts, definitely a dive bar but approachable and host to a decent number of college students. It's cash only and a little expensive, but I had enough fun hanging out there that it was basically worth it. The wood paneling is a really enjoyable touch!“
“We loved it here!!! Visiting from out of state and the locals and staff were amazing! Amber was the best, I want to come back just to visit her!!! Thank you everyone for making us feel welcome we had such a great time but sad there was no food lol! Amber you rock!!! Matt n Wanda“
“The Chanty is a staple and landmark for historical downtown Ithaca.Every visit here is chill and cheap.The ? sign is your signal to stop in and hang in an intimate place offering: darts, pool, and good ol juke player.Feels more local folk than college kids. A plus for us OG ithaca workers.It's been almost ~20 years since I started going . It was always the place to go after work drink and an '5 o'clock somewhere' place on a day off.The Chanty is an easygoing classic place to just have a drink with your friends.“
