Restaurants in Watkins Glen

“My husband and I drove an hour and a half for our anniversary dinner and the food was excellent. The service? Not so much. The pad Thai with mock duck was our favorite, the golden bags were also super good. Our waitress never asked if we wanted drinks other than water, we asked. Never asked if we wanted appetizers. The gentleman that ran food seemed to be working very hard, but he brought my husband’s entree out five minutes before mine. No one ever checked in with us. Had to ask for the check. Again, the food was great, and we’d come back again, but wouldn’t make the trip just for it again. As someone in the customer service industry for many years, I get being busy or overwhelmed or whatever, it just wasn’t the best experience.”

“Me and my partner went on a date there today and enjoyed a fabulous meal. I highly recommend this restaurant if your looking for BBQ. Good job Nickel's Pit BBQ!!”

“Great, friendly service even though they were extremely busy. The food is the best of the best of Thai cuisine.”

“My wife and I had a great meal and our server, Christina, was also great.”

“Our first time staying at the property. Check-in was super easy by text (since card was on file). We stayed in the stand-alone cabins which were awesome since we had a dog with us and planned to leave him in the cabin when we went to dinner, and he whines for a bit when left alone in a new place, so having a stand-alone cabin was helpful to not disturb other guests. The cabins were new, clean, nicely appointed, very comfortable bedding, good WiFi, easy parking right in front of the cabin, a full kitchenette. It was like a real one-bedroom house. Good location close to Watkins Glen and nearby wineries. Staff was very friendly. Will be happy to stay again in the future!”

“Bar tender was amazing! Outworked the lazy, clueless bartenders next door!”

“Friendly staff, Ian was very personable and friendly. He made us feel welcomed. The cheese selection from local cheese farms were plentiful. Definitely a destination stop.”

“The best wings in the area! a great local watering hole with a lot of small town charm. friendly patrons and staff make for a comfy atmosphere. highly recommend”

“Great food, good service! Would definitely go back if I'm in the area!”

“Great drinks, especially the Hot n Sour, in a nice setting. The bartender is talented, friendly, and clearly dedicated to his craft. Would return to try more cocktails and wine.”

“Orlando and staff provide outstanding food and service but they all make you feel like your part of their family.”

“Los desayunos 🍳 están súper con más de 65 años me aprecio súper bien contando los años que tiene este lugar wow fenomenal pedí jamón con huevo y queso y pan tostado súper rico”

“Cozy, quaint little restaurant. My breakfast was great, and fast. The place is very clean. Atmosphere was a little simple but nice. Service was great, even the cook! Lotta locals here. Prices were good. This is our go-to when in town. Recommended.”

“One of our absolute favorite places!! Delicious food, HUGE portions,, reasonable prices, great service, very friendly staff.”

“We had an impromptu stay in Watkins Glen on our way home to NC. We absolutely loved the hospitality of the staff at Seneca Lodge. The room was quaint and clean. The food at the Lodge restaurant was amazing, both for supper and breakfast. Can't recommend the cinnamon raisin French toast enough! Our server, Joyce, was attentive and friendly. We will definitely be back!”

“We tried the wings out and they are the best we have ever had! They make their own sauce and wings are huge. Very good prices! Our new go to place!”

“Great freshly roasted beans. Clean. Great service. Check out lunch specials, tend to be delicious.”

“The ice cream was decent, and the cones were fresh. The store was kept clean, which added to the overall good experience. However, the prices were a bit high, and I would appreciate more flavor options.”

“So good! Best food and coffee I’ve ever had. Great find!”

“5 Stars – Beautiful, Delicious, and Perfectly Customized! Sugar Mountain Bakery’s dessert cups were a decadent highlight of our Spring Fundraiser! Each one was delicious, beautifully presented, and tailored perfectly to our event. The team was flexible, creative, and a joy to work with. Highly recommend for any occasion that calls for something sweet and memorable!”

“New owners recently (local!), same great ice cream (Hershey's and their own). Highly recommend.”

“Still looks brand new with an employee scrubbing the already clean floor. Usually have to wait a few minites for food but is fresh and not sitting in a warmer. Order is always correct and consistent.”

“A favorite spot for my brother and I. We drove by after 9 tonight and the owner turned the lights back on and made sure we got our ice cream fix. 10/10 recommend. Good ice cream and even better people. And a fraction of the cost compared to other places.”

“we popped in for some karokee on ours girls trip to Watkins Glen. the night was amazing and so much fun! The bartenders were fabulous and know how to make a drink! The prices were surprisingly low for the amount of alcohol they gove ya!!! I recommend the specialty drinks. Everyone there made us feel so welcome and we danced and sang the night away!!! Thanks for a wonderful night!!!”

“We had a great time at the Lucky Hare last week. The staff made such an impression…so warm, friendly and fun! And the food was delicious! Trey makes phenomenal chili, and sent us home with some Manhattan clam chowder that was the best we’ve ever had! Can’t wait to visit again.”

“She really delicious food great service wonderful people very clean restaurant I give him a five star rating”

“This is one of my top favorite bars ever. It's secluded & right on the lake. Food was great. The bar tender was alone and she gave an amazing service to a group of 35 people. They had a joke box and some fun games. The view was just perfect. Drinks, fun and games all night. Highly recommend it.”

“A group of us went for a bachelorette trip about a week or so ago. We had Sarah as our waitress. She was so accommodating and friendly. Andrea, the manager, was lovely and made our bride feel special and checked in on all of us. The drinks and food were yummy and huge portion sizes. Everybody left happy, we had a great time and excellent service.”

“Their food is good, service is fast, and it’s pretty cheap! The cheese pizza and buffalo chicken pizza were both flavorful and good sized slices. They had two almost full cases of pizzas and calzones to choose slices from and we were served right away. Three slices and a drink came out to $14. The only minor complaint is that it’s a little too greasy, but nothing out of the ordinary for chain pizza.”

“Great service and amazing, authentic food. My go-to is the chicken tacos. The soup of the week was chicken and potato and it was incredible. So glad this place is so close to home.”

“Great food and great service”

“Excellent 👌👍!!! Very nice Place! Thankfully for service BARBARA and every one employee this Place from our Souls and 💕 Heart!!! We will be highly recommend all our friends Colonial Inn & Creamer! We a coming back.
Viktor and Zemfira.”
