Ithaca Ale House Reviews
The NYS Orchard Burger is beyond amazing! My go to when I’m in town!
Something was up whether it was a fryer uncleaned or bad food overall. The “boneless,” wings were basically chicken tenders . The spring rolls weren’t bad but the pizza was not as pictured. The cheese was chewy and there wasn’t much hot honey sauce. We both felt sick after so we won’t be eating there again.
Food was amazing! Had the Orchard Burger! Best burger I ever had along with ice cold beers. Recommend this place 100%. Jordan was our server and she was great!

Ithaca Ale House is a pub-style restaurant known for its wide selection of beers and drinks, along with a food menu that features burgers, wings, salads, and other classic pub dishes. The boneless wings with ale house sauce remain popular for their perfect balance of spice and flavor, while the crab cakes are made with high-quality crab and contain no breading or fillers. The atmosphere is modern, clean, and comfortable, with good seating options. Service is generally friendly and attentive, with knowledgeable staff who are patient and helpful. The restaurant is well-maintained, with clean bathrooms and a great beer selection at reasonable prices, including tall pours. The food is fresh, tasty, and well-presented, with generous portions. The burger is cooked perfectly with a good bun-to-meat ratio, and the meat’s seasoning, texture, and freshness are highly praised. Onion rings are crispy and flavorful, though some feel they could be thicker cut to better highlight the onion flavor. The skillet wings have received attention for their flavor, although some customers wish for more toppings. It’s a good place for families, with kid-friendly options and wheelchair accessibility at street level and good spacing. While parking can be challenging downtown, it provides a very good dining experience, especially for those seeking quality food and a solid beer selection. The atmosphere can be a bit loud when crowded, but the outdoor dining area is a nice option. Overall, Ithaca Ale House is a great choice for delicious food and a friendly vibe.
