Restaurants in Penn Yan

“We hired Casa Mezcal for our wedding, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with how everything turned out. The team was professional, responsive, and truly committed to making our day special. The food was absolutely incredible—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests are still raving about the taco bar for dinner, and chips and salsa during cocktail hour. Service was seamless. The staff was attentive, friendly, and efficient. One of the highlights for us was how Casa Mezcal customized the menu to reflect our tastes and wedding vibe. They truly went above and beyond, and their attention to detail helped create a memorable experience for us and our guests. We highly recommend Casa Mezcal to any couple looking for exceptional wedding catering. They helped make our celebration delicious and unforgettable”

“My wife and I visited Abandon Brewing Company on 8/31 to celebrate my 65th birthday. This was our second visit. Great service, great food and drink, a relaxed family-friendly atmosphere, and a beautiful view of Keuka Lake. I wasn't paying attention when I signed the credit card receipt (old people's attention often wanders😊) and mistakenly approved someone else's charge for $80 worth of drinks. I emailed Abandon that night when I discovered the error and Kerry responded immediately. She apologized for the mixup and refunded the entire $80 charge - excellent customer service that seems to be a rarity these days. If you haven't checked out Abandon Brewing Company yet, IMO it's well worth the drive. We'll be returning soon.”

“The dumplings were amazing. Crispy on the outer shell but still soft and perfectly cooked. The flavors were well matched and the sauce was drool worthy!

check the hours before you go, online said 11-5 but they had an hour lunch break 2-3 (we arrived at 2:01). We went to another winery locally to wait out the hour break and came back promptly at 3 to enjoy our much awaited dumplings!”

“Visiting from Texas…this was a wonderful, quaint cafe down the road from our stay! Enjoyed our meal and the market!”

“The have great breakfast! Eggs are always cooked perfectly. Fast, friendly service. Especially Patrick! Great breakfast specials. And they open early, which is perfect for me.”

“We visited on Sunday 9/22 and hands down the group decided it was # 1 out of 4 wineries/vineyards we visited! Low key, delicious wine, friendly hosts and owner(s) and not overly commercialized with expensive trinkets. You can bring your own snacks too (if there isn’t a food truck there). Did I mention the beautiful view of Lake Seneca? Their vegetable garden is decorated for the spooky season and welcomes a few wanderers. It was the perfect end to the day! Put this stop on your list!”

“The food is amazing. Best loaded fries I’ve ever had. I love the stying and vibe inside. Beer is great too, especially if you like traditional German style beer.”

“Awesome place! Ask Mike how they made the 'lake water' bar and enjoy the delicious Chocolate Milk Stout. Highly recommend”

“the Brewing here is some of the very best in the country. the location is phenomenal with exquisite rooms for lodging and they are always hosting great bands and other events to keep things edgy. try one of their pizzas if you stop in. you won't be disappointed!”

“Best flat bread I have ever had! Loved it Rose! The wait staff was friendly and efficient also. Will definitely be back and recommend to all my friends.”

“four of us had an early dinner and the food was fantastic. My brother in law had the chicken parmigiana and he commented that it was the best he's ever had. My two sisters loved there meal and my trout dinner was to die for. Jenny our server was friendly and knowledgeable and went out of her way to make our dinner special. I would definitely recommend The Antique Inn and I can't wait to try their tomato sauce.”

“Great beers! And they usually have a brown ale. Owners super pleasant and fun.”

“Love Cams Penn Yan ! So good, and I'm a pizza snob :)”

“Had the fish fry last night. Best fish fry in the area. More than I could finish. Had the rest for lunch. Will be back for more.”

“This place knows how to do nachos! The ingredients are fresh, the cheese is nice and melted, the pulled pork is awesome and they LAYOR them throughout the chips!!! 5 stars!!!”

“Great coffee and I love the salmon bagel amongst all the other goodies they have.”

“I go to Blue Heron about twice a week. My family loves the olive ciabatta bread, the warm, soft pretzels and especially the almond croissants - unbelievably delicious with just the right sweetness. Today I brought home a chocolate babka for the first time....heavenly. Best bakery anywhere!”

“We absolutely love the Spotted Duck Creamery—the ice cream here is truly some of the best we’ve ever had! Every flavor is so fresh and delicious, and it’s always a treat to bring friends and family when they’re visiting. That said, I was a little disappointed on our most recent visit. I arrived at 8:00 PM, and although they close at 8:30 PM, when I ordered the Seneca Flight (which includes eight different flavors), they opted to split it into two cups—four scoops in each—instead of serving it in the traditional flight style. I was especially excited to share the full flight experience with my family visiting from Virginia Beach, so it was a bit of a letdown not to get the signature presentation. Overall though, it was still a great experience, and the ice cream itself never disappoints. I’d just encourage the team to consider offering the full experience up until closing, especially for guests who make a point to arrive before the posted hours end. We’ll definitely be back!”

“just tried the pig pile tacos. I highly recommend. 3 tacos piled full. will be having again. picture only shows 2 cause I couldn't help my self.”

“Possibly the best burgers in the USA (made with local beef), the atmosphere is wonderful, locals are friendly and the staff are fantastic.”

“We had a wonderful dining experience at the 18th Amendment. Our waiter was phenomenally attentive and friendly and the food was delicious.”

“Second time in & we absolutely love this bistro!! Warm, welcoming, and the food is delish!!”

“We were visiting and found this charming place and wonderful people. Best breakfast we've had in awhile. When next in the area, I'll be back! Perfection!”

“Discovered this little gem on a summer road trip traveling from Florida. Enjoyed an outdoor lunch and a few glasses of traminette, and was hooked. Fox Run is the only place I order wine. I take full advantage of free shipping twice a year. They never disappoint.”

“Wings are fantastic. 18% gratuity on all carryout orders will keep from ordering again.”

“Great spot! Make sure to say hi to Lou!”

“My wife and I stopped on a Monday night. The place was HOPPIN! We were able to get a table, thr food was great and the customer service was great. I had the garbage plate and my wife had the po' boy. And the wings were amazing also!”

“Tried to order for delivery like we do every Friday night. Tonight we called 89 times with a busy signal every time. Really good food if someone would answer phone.”

“Recently went on a overnight stay at Seneca lake with my boyfriend and we stopped here on our way to the camp site. It was a Wednesday so we were the only ones in there but this place was very cool. The live bees and I love a good mason jar flight. The wine slushes were good. Would recommend if driving by.”

“Very friendly wait staff . Food was amazing. I have their smash cheese burger basket .”

“great wine but getting too expensive for me”

“Delicious! We had a medium-sized pizza delivered. It arrived fast, delivered by a cheerful lady, and was accurate. I especially liked the thin crust - just the right balance of crispy and chewy.”

“Great pizza, enjoyed the wings too. Felt very awkward that staff was putting up chairs up on tables as if they were closing. We were there before 6pm, less than welcoming vibes.”

“Amazing atmosphere, service, and food. Completely exceeded my expectations, and I could not recommend more. Food was delicious, authentic, and high quality. Come support this local business, they are truly one of the best!”

“I came here for my birthday dinner and it was the best steak Ive ever had! The food was absolutely delicious, and the view of the lake made it even more special. Our waiter, Matt, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and really made the night enjoyable. The chef also came out to say hello and was very nice. Highly recommend The Main Deck for a great dining experience on the water!”
