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”

“Loved this spot, dog friendly, a lot of seating. Hugh variety of beers on draft including NA options like a delicious root beer on draft. We ordered the naan and whipped hummus as snacks and the beet salad and were very happy.”

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

“Absolutely incredible find and made the best dinner over a campfire!
Tried all the meat protein ones and they were all fab. The spicy sauce and the lamb weren't TOO spicy either. Just enough heat. I hope to be able to try the wines next time!”

“This place has so much going for it. It's dog friendly and has a great vibe. The beers were tasty. The food is excellent and fresh. We liked it so much we went twice during our stay.”

“If you don’t get the triple b burger you are missing out! Their food is absolutely amazing and I’ve never had a bad meal. We stumbled upon the triple b burger over the summer and now every time we go we order 3! For me and my fiancé to share. It’s delicious and filling. A must have on the menu! I’ve had bbq in a lot of places but the bbq shack has the best ever. So glad it’s local to us.”

“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!”

“We stumbled upon Treetop Cidery while we were out for a drive today. We had such a great time. The cider is so good, not overly sweet like the bigger brands in our area. Sid and his wife (I didn’t catch her name, unfortunately) were so kind and welcoming. We chatted with them for a while and it was a really nice time. We will definitely be back and highly recommend you stop by if you’re in the area.”

“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 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!”

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

“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!”

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

“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.”

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

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

“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!”

“Beautiful large home perfect for quilting and sleeping. Gorgeous view of the lake.”

“Food was good, with homemade macaroni salad and cole slaw and corn fritters making it unique. Ice cream selections looked phenomenal but we hadn’t saved room. Games and outdoor seating area very clean and inviting. Great wholesome family place. Good quality items at their Coop shop next door. Would recommend for anyone on family vacation at Keuka/Penn Yan”

“Exciting combinations of soft serve, big variety of Hershey's brand hard packed ice creams. I have now had the grape sherbet and vanilla 3 days in a row.

Mini golf out back for $5”

“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!”

“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!”

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

“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.”

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

“Moonshadow kitchen just brought 6 of us back to the Windmill for the day. Vegan and gluten free - super helpful and easy to trust. The tacos were a party in my mouth.I was so enveloped by the taste. Even better than pictures. All three of my young kids ate the mac n cheese, then I got to play clean up crew on that too. Respect and props to the owner.”

“The service was great! The food was delicious!! We will be back. Thank you for a wonderful evening.”

“Wings are awesome! If you have not tried yet, you need to.”

“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.”

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

“Great food and friendly staff! Either breakfast sandwich or cheesesteak, the Grateful Plateful makes my trip to the Windmill complete.”

“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.”

“great wine but getting too expensive for me”

“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!!!”

“Auntie Anne's is the best! I go to the Windmill specifically to just get a pretzel. Or 6. And dipping sauces. Bring back the spicy cheese! The lemonade is heavenly. Be prepared- this is cash only; an ATM is on site at the Windmill, though. They did an excellent job with a Scout program for my Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts. Even the older kids had fun! They learned the story of Auntie Anne's and pretzels, got to make their own and got a patch. It was VERY reasonable, so if you have a youth group, contact them to set up a date.”

“The meads and ciders were all amazing. The beverages were delicious, and the server ( Brandon ) was knowledgeable, professional, and welcoming. A positive and unique stop and a welcomed change from my normal dry white wines. Great view, great front yard to sit and enjoy the view. Can't wait to come back, and they had live bees my wife loved.

I have to start carrying cash again to leave tips. 🤦‍♂”

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

“The food was beyond good the honey chicken the shrimp and broccoli everything was excellent but the best part was it was like you get to shop also we got a Black & Decker weed eater for $25 in the box and they had so many other cookware items but were from Florida so no and the people that run it were absolutely gracious humble and fantastic”

“Delicious and fresh! We will definitely be back! Greek salad was our favorite!”

“The chicken alfredo pizza & the cauliflower crust pizza with mushrooms, onions & hot peppers was absolutely delicious! Delivery was very quick to the hotel & friendly too. Highly recommend Mark’s Pizza!”

“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!”
