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”

“Look, the beer and location are great. Always have been. But the PIZZA? This is legit. The kitchen learned the craft and delivered. Could this be the best pizza in the FLX region? More than likely. Try it!”

“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!”

“We came here with my wife, first grader, and dog, and it was exactly what we needed after a long day of driving. The friendliness of the staff, combined with the quality of the food — and of course the beer — made it a great place to kick back and relax. Michelle was especially awesome in helping us customize a burger for our kid. One small suggestion would be to consider adding a kids’ cheeseburger to the menu. Overall, this place is definitely worth a visit and a must-try if you’re in the area.”

“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 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!”

“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 :)”

“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.”

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

“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!”

“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.”

“Love Getting Dinner here...Food is so good!! Friendly Staff”

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

“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!”

“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!”

“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”

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

“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.”

“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!”

“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 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!”

“Best cider and cider donuts you’ll ever have. Fresh apples and other great items for purchase. This is a must visit if you’re in the area.”

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

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

“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.”

“great wine but getting too expensive for me”

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

“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.”

“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!!!”

“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 .”

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

“Sesame chicken I had tonight was the Best i’ve ever had. Though we’ve frequented here often, but this went above their usual fare. Got to find out who was cooking tonight!”

“We were visiting the area years ago and we had this delivered to our hotel. It was delicious, still hot and it was beautiful and we still talk about it as the best pizza we've ever had. We contemplate traveling back just for this pizza. 10 / 10 and beyond!”

“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!”
