There are certain things by which I judge a restaurant's suitability for me. One thing I look for in a breakfast/lunch eatery is their bisquets and gravy. Another is their home fries. At Long Last knocked booth of those out of the park. The best c&b I can ever recall eating, and excellent home fries. The fries were unique to my experience. They were a generous portion of small potatoes, sliced and fried to perfection. My companions decided upon breakfast sandwiches. A ham and cheese bagel for one lady and a steak and cheese bagel for the other. Both came with scrambled eggs on the sandwich, and one lady had peppers and onions (steak) on hers. Both proclaimed their fare to be excellent. Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. The staff members were very helpful. The foʻd came quickly and was served piping hot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You'll be pleased with the open layout and total cleanliness of this restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If it's brunch for you, an assortment of stylized coffees and alcoholic beverages are available. The menu is e x t e n s i v e! You'll find what you want and enjoy it in a relaxed atmosphere. The prices are average for the area. There are many places to dine in the Skaneateles/Auburn area, but I'm eating here. Enjoy! read more

This place is such a wonderful addition to the Auburn breakfast scene! We came in around 9:40 on a Sunday. There weren't any tables but we were fine sitting at the bar. The Dubai chocolate latte had a wonderful pistachio flavor to it. There wasn't as much cream/ foam as most lattes that I've had, but it was still tasty. The avocado toast was a lot larger/ filling than I thought it would be. The balsamic drizzle was perfect on it and the bread was excellent. We loved the flavor of the gravy on the biscuits and gravy. Again, generous portion and the biscuits were nice and flaky. The Dutch Apple French toast was a great recommendation from the bar tender. I love the cinnamon in the bread and it was all not too sweet... definitely did not need the optional maple syrup. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is fresh and light and the service was pleasant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would love to return! read more

Can we please normalize Mimosa flights? I love the fact that I could choose 4 different drinks that were super creative and delicious. My favorite was the Cherry mimosa. The food was delicious, the service was excellent and I walked away pleasantly stuffed. For my entree, I ordered the Fried Green Tomato BLT. The dipping sauce of gravy was an added bonus that brought the dish to another level. I definitely would come back to this restaurant if I lived in the area. read more

Our waitress was wonderful--kind, attentive. Unfortunately, the owner's response to a simple mistake was very disappointing. My mother ordered a Caesar salad with ranch instead of Caesar dressing. When it arrived tossed in what clearly tasted like Caesar, she politely asked for it to be remade with ranch on the side. Instead of simply correcting it, the owner came to our table and argued that the chef "knows what ranch is" and insisted it was ranch. The salad was eventually remade, but there was no apology or acknowledgment. We even asked the owner to return to discuss the interaction, and she never did. Mistakes happen. What matters is how they're handled, and unfortunately, the lack of accountability and hospitality left a very disappointing impression. read more

A small group of us went to ALL for lunch while visiting Auburn recently. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has ample parking and is clean and bright.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Everything on the menu sounded great, which made it so hard to choose! I landed on the roasted turkey melt with fries. The sandwich was huge and so tasty, and the fries were crispy and delicious. Service was friendly and pretty quick, for how busy they were. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only drawback is that the acoustics make it hard to hear, even from across a small table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, a great place for breakfast or lunch, and they even have an outdoor seating area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Had reservations for brunch with my friends for our annual holiday/bday brunch. We were seated promptly and Natalie our server was so sweet! The restaurant was busy and very cute inside. I ordered a lemon blueberry mimosa, peppermint mocha iced latte, and the Reuben eggs benedict. Everything was amazing! I love eggs benedict and love to try new variations. It was a really great pairing!! Will definitely be back. read more

The type of place I'd eat daily. All the food, service and operational efficiency are top notch. The Benedicts are scratch made and mouth watering. Started off with breakfast egg rolls that I expected to be greasy. However they were executed perfectly. Our party of 7 all had excellent food. Nothing on the menu that doesn't deliver as promised read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Really cute and nice place. Modern ambiance. Nicely decorated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Party of 5 and we didn't want to wait for a table so we sat at the counter. Good choice. Service was very good. Food was good too. All done correctly but for one order and they fixed it immediately. Coffee is good; hot, iced and decaf. Biscuits and gravy are yummy. Eggs Benedict good. Turkey sandwich so big he took 1/2 for later. Marble rye bread very good. We didn't have any flights but the coffee and mimosa flights that passed by looked great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice outdoor seating too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would definitely recommend. read more

I've been wanting to go to this restaurant for a while now I went there on Friday. They told me the specials for that day was the fish. I assumed it was breaded fish but when I got it it was, it wasn't even a beer batter it was like a cake batter it was sweet had a odd taste to it the onion petals were very good. I don't think I would order the fish again though wasn't that tasty and that sweetness, it was either pancake or cake batter. Just weird. Maybe next time I'll try breakfast and see if that's better read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is cute. Has indoor and outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We live in camillus so this was almost a 25 minute drive but it was a pretty drive. Got the mimosa flights which some were better than others but good overall. I ordered the fried green tomato Benedict but the waitress swore I ordered the crab cake Benedict when it came out which I know I didn't order because I don't like cooked spinach or roasted reds. The replaced my meal with the correct one but the eggs were closer to hard boiled than they were poached so I assume they used the eggs from my original order. The home fries are like quarter sized fried potatoes and they are hard. We also got the pancake puppy starter which was good. My husband got the biscuits and gravy which he said was really good. All in all I would try again but def wasn't without some hiccups. read more

At Long Last is an Auburn staple and a must go to if you have not been there yet or if you are just passing through the finger lakes region. Not one of your "run of the mill" diners by any means with such choices as Smoked Salmon Benedict, specialty mimosas, hot chocolate flights, and so much more. A true gastronomic experience and a delight to the taste buds even for the kids, with amazing service and very comfortable seating. I often look forward to having dinner there either on Thursday or Friday nights with the occasional prime rib special and other amazing choices, you can't go wrong. read more

We are in this area a few times a year and always on the lookout for new dinking spots. Queer o meter was a solid 10 and I thank you! We got the hot honey sandwich, over easy eggs on tots, a Bloody Mary and an off the cuff made up drink we call the DeeDee. Honestly, I was slapped in the face with the food. I don't go to central NY expecting much from the food joint on the side of the road but At Long Last did not disappoint. The drinks, although not stellar were really good. The Mary mix was spicy and the vodka pour heavy. Happy Saturday to me. The fruity made up drink, was what she wanted and was happy. So happy she got 2. The eggs were fresh and tater tots hot and crispy. I got off the lunch menu as I usually prefer lunch foods. The hot honey chicken was the stuff dreams are made of. A good size piece of chicken perfectly panko encrusted and fried? Air fried? Either way it wasn't greasy but remained juicy, hot and crispy. It was drizzled with hot pepper honey sauce on a warm brioche roll with fries. Dang it was delicious. My only con was the coffee. It's a little weak for me. If they got that tweaked this place would a morning staple. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a wide open seating area and loud with the hub bub of people.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And I bet on nicer days there's a wait for a table. Give them a try, def worth it. Cheers! read more

We got there about 9 Sunday morning and it was pretty busy. It took a brief time to get seated with menus and our waitress came over for drinks orders. It is so clean and modern and sunny inside. It got busier and busier but our server was on top of everything while being friendly and efficient. The coffee was very good and all the servers frequently checked if we needed more. The French toast was delicious and so was my fretta. My fretta consisted of eggs, kielbasa, onions, potatoes and pierogies. My only complaint is that my dish was mostly potatoes. The kielbasa was thin slices, with each slice cut in half. There were very few pieces of kielbasa in the entire dish. (My plate is smaller than it looks from the picture) I don't know if they have the filling already put together and I got the bad luck with so little meat(?) There were 3 mini pierogies on top. The dish didn't even come with toast. I am not looking for 2 lbs of food, It just was not a good value at all. I will definitely be back to try other items. Great location, great ambiance and great service . read more

What was previously Route 20 Grill & Tap, and perhaps most famously the Pioneer Restaurant, is now At Long Last. The freshly remodeled space offers breakfast and brunch fare described by owner Robin Long as "a little step up from what normal diner fare might be." For Long, the name of the business is more than a pun. Its Feb. 15 opening was the culmination of a career that began about 30 years ago at the Old Erie Restaurant in Weedsport. She was a general manager at the Sherwood Inn for 6 years, then worked as the Skaneateles establishment's line cook, takeout coordinator and outdoor seating manager, adding even more experiences to a career that began with washing dishes and hosting. She credited the Old Erie's Dave and Eileen Gibson and the Sherwood's Bill Eberhardt for teaching her the work and giving her the confidence to do it well. But she's wanted to be her own boss since falling in love with the industry on her first day in it. When the Route 20 Grill & Tap closed due to a fire, she decided it was time to open her own establishment. Signature "upscale breakfast" meals include shrimp-and-grits eggs Benedict, and chicken and waffles with sriracha maple and bacon jam. I stopped in with some family to give them a try. Menu was interesting, with tasty sounding twists on traditional breakfast dishes. It was a Sunday at 930, and the place was pretty packed, but we were sat immediately. It's very bright, nicely decorated & clean inside with a nice open space. I went with the jalapeno cheddar biscuit - fried chicken filet with candied jalapenos with sausage gravy on a cheddar biscuit with home fries. The rest of my party ordered the Reuben benedict and a breakfast burrito. Our food was brought pretty quickly for how busy they were. Everyone very much enjoyed their meals. My sandwich was great - the freshly battered and fried chicken breast was the perfect thickness & consistency, the bread was nice a light, the biscuit was soft and fluffy while also being sturdy enough to handle the toppings, and the sausage gravy was great with large chunks of sausage all throughout. Home fries we good as well, nicely cooked and seasoned. Service was fine and prices were comparable to similar establishments. I'll definitely be back, as there's plenty of other creative dishes on the menu I'm interested in trying. read more

The server was very friendly. I think there was a 20-30 minute wait. The restaurant was super clean and newly renovated. The food was super tasty. I did think it was a little expensive for breakfast food and there was an up-charge for gluten free, which makes you feel less inclined to order a gf option and instead stick to simple eggs. Hoping this is something they will work through as they are fairly new. Will definitely give them another shot in the future! read more

Went for girlfriends brunch this morning, and our server couldn't have been more amazing! Shout out to DeVonte for making us feel welcome and for going above and beyond with his courtesy, expertise, and patience. I have reviewed this restaurant before and really enjoy it. I especially appreciate a menu that has something for everyone. I tend to get the root vegetable hash every time I go, but also love the fried green tomatoes Benedict. The ambience is lovely to look at but for the noise level is a lot for people who may be a little hard of hearing. also love their charming, waiting area with toys for children. Such a nice place in Auburn is lucky to have it. read more

Everything was so delicious here. They have an incredible selection of cold brew coffee. Which I highly recommend trying. I got an omelette with broccoli and mushrooms, which was really good. The broccoli was super fresh and it almost felt like I was able to have a side of steamed broccoli on the side. The service was amazing. The owner was there too, which was really wonderful. read more

FABULOUS. In Michelin terms, this place is "worth a detour." Food: Five/+ stars. The home fries are the best I've ever had. (My husband agrees.) Instead of being mere filler, they really took on a starring role on the plate. My husband had the chicken and waffles, and he said that was also the best he's ever had. Even my over-easy eggs were cooked perfectly, and again, were probably the best I've had at a restaurant. Every aspect of the plates clearly received attention and care in the kitchen and was presented in a way that looked good, too. We go out to breakfast a lot, and this place really offers something special. Coffee: Two stars. Weakest link. OK flavor, but WAY too weak. Service: Perfect. And, the food came out quickly. Aesthetic/Vibe: Five/+ stars. The color palette was obviously carefully chosen to create a sense of calm and comfort while still feeling really clean and fresh for morning service. We were seated in an area where the ceiling was painted a beautiful slate blue, which added so much coziness. The tables are a great material, and felt good to touch. The benches in our booth were the right height, the right distance from the table, and the right amount of squishiness. Every detail of the physical interior of the building was clearly carefully and purposefully chosen. I kept noticing really great design choices the whole time we were there. It felt Scandinavian. Loved it all. read more

At Long Last - Polish fretta yum! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Auburn, New York

My first meal here was excellent and the subsequent three have been bad. Great atmosphere, nice service, overly fried and heavy food all around. The first time I had the fried green tomato Benedict, which was delicious. I had it again on my fourth visit and the tomato was sliced so thin it was almost like eating fried batter with no tomato, which completely defeats the purpose of fried green tomato. Previous visit I had the chorizo egg plate (or was it kielbasa? One of those sausages), and it was gross. Overly greasy, not fresh tasting, all it needed to be was some eggs and nicely cooked chorizo and onions. I'm not sure what happened, such a nice first visit followed by three meals I just did not enjoy. My son loves the pancakes, but I don't think I can come back a fifth time. read more

Very busy Sunday morning, several people waiting for tables, so we sat at the counter. Plenty of staff to handle the crowd, no long waits.
