13 Best Vegan 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.“

“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!“

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

“I will give this Ben and Jerry's a four star review only and only because of the young blond that was working her little tail feathers off while four other young men..her coworkers were fratanizing. I would like to see personalized tips in this establishment. Thank you! Michelle McMillen“

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

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

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

“Honestly one of my favorite restaurants / experiences anywhere. I’ve been here 3 times over the last 5 years and each time I’m there, the flavor of the pizza (especially the sauce and the slightly burnt ends of the crust) is amazing. I have a lot of love for this place. The vibe and location right next to Watkins Glen State Park is amazing. Thanks to the owners for creating this warm establishment.“

“Sat on the covered patio with a light rain, So we were hooked early on, although it was still a tough decision, considering the interior was very cozy, and there was a excellent hostess that greeted us on 8/7/26… Cesar was good bang bang shrimp maybe a little over breaded than I would desire, porterhouse had interesting flavor, thinner cut than desired but I’ll give this place five stars thanks to our server Damon… too many young kids, lack personality and engagement but Damon had the perfect amount of tact & engagement and was witty… we are staying at the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel as well, which is great location, clean nice place expensive but worth it.“

“The meals are SO big. I have not had portions this big in awhile, so you get a lot for your money. I will say that most everything was pretty salty (and I’m a salt craver) but aside from that - this is a nice spot for a very hearty vegan meal. Service is very fast as well.

“Great food and great service“

“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.“
