    Caramel Latte
    Tomiko P.

    Decided to give this place a try while in Peekskill this morning and so glad I did. I never get to try daytime food in Peekskill since I work in the city during the week and on weekends mostly eat in or locally (Yorktown) anyway, my daughter and I stopped in and chose to eat outside. Perfect day sun above us with a nice cool breeze. I had a caramel latte, she had juice. My latte was perfect and they serve in coffee mugs that make you feel like your home not just a diner like coffee mug. I had the Greek Omelette which was soooo good and my daughter had the Veggie Omelette also very good. The home fries for me were good but I like mine cooked more crispy and I had forgotten to ask for salt and pepper which probably would have made it more seasoned which was a bit lacking for me but my daughter said hers were perfect. Overall still will be back again as the friendly staff and yummy food made this to my newest breakfast stops worth my 15 min drive.

    An absolutely terrific time at the Bean Runner cafe last night. They had a classic Salsa band playing on the street in front of the cafe and a nice crowd of guests dancing and having a great time. Peekskill is an old town that has developed a very nice group of breweries and restaurants around the town and quite a nice crowd of young people moving in to the beautiful lofts that are developed from the great old architecture found throughout. The bean runner offers great service and cold beer. The food and drinks are ok but they do offer a good collection of wines and beer. They have a beautiful collection of art work throughout the restaurant but the best part was the entertainment which was fantastic!

    First time and we loved it, I had the Lobster Bisque soup and it was just delishhhhh wished it came with the crackers and I also had the Cross Country wrap (Chicken, guacamole, grilled and peppers, cheddar cheese, salsa, sour cream & lettuce on a spinach wrap) and OMG my mouth just danced with joy. It did take a lille longer to get our food, but the wait was worth it. Now let's talk about inside, I love how they support local artist as they have their paintings displayed on their walls and you can purchase them right there on the spot. Plenty of seating (inside and out), very clean and loved their homemade lemonade. Will stop by again when we are up in Peekskill. There is street parking near by and lots and lots of great stores near by as well. Do check out the Third Eye Arts Studio and Gallery next door.

    I really liked this place's cozy, small town, coffee shop atmosphere. It's the type of place the Gilmore Girls would get a cup of coffee. The outdoor seating makes makes you feel like you're in a place that isn't Peekskill, no offense to Peekskill. The food menu is comparable to a diner. I had a nice bacon egg and cheese and the pancakes were also good. The service was also really friendly. I'll definitely be stopping back in.

    Found this place on accident. It's a really cute casual cafe and dine in restaurant! Coffees brewed hot, and their smoothies taste very natural. Gluten free options are a good variety. Two thumbs up from both parties!!

    We went to the Bean Runner this afternoon with friends (a couple) who live in Peekskill, and we really liked it!

    Peekskill Diner

    Small space with very friendly and courteous staff; owner/manager came around to check on everyone…read morewhich was nice. The place was clean and tidy, I appreciated the historical photos of Peekskill around the dining area. The menu is not overly ambitious, but plenty of choices; the food was very good, portions not skimpy and definitely not over priced. I hope they do well; I would recommend and will definitely be going back.

    It was good. Not great. The pancakes were rough. That was the thing that makes me wanna take this…read morefrom 4 stars to a 3. They were doughy. Not undercooked. They were cooked through and through. But it was still doughy; which tells me that how they mix their batter is the problem. I also got the Peekskill Diner Omelette. It was decent. 4 out of 5. About as good as any omelette from any surrounding diner. Unfortunately, the home fries were pretty mid. I wouldn't say they were undercooked because the potatoes were soft, but they were definitely not roasted long enough. I'm guessing they were boiled before roasted; which is fine, but they just need to roast them a lot longer because boiled potatoes absorb a ton of moisture and need the extra time roasting. Service was fine. Waiter was always on time. Water and coffee refills were on time. I would say 4.5/5 on service. Nothing wrong there. The manager was attentive, and looked like he was dedicated to making this Diner work. He's the only reason I'm giving this place a 4/5 and not a 3/5. I'm sure he'll be reading this review, and I'm sure he will work to make the food better. The actual restaurant itself is small. It feels a little cramped. Not as bad as the worst I've seen, but it does feel tight. I won't deduct any points for this because they're working with what they got. If they make the food better, they can go even tighter, and I won't complain. All in all, I think these guys are stretching themselves too thin. They wanna do the standard NY style Diner, but I think they'd be better off finding a niche. It's a small space. It doesn't need a menu that big. We need less variety and more quality in this area. All our diners in the area are mid. All of them. Westchester, 202, Mohegan, etc.... we don't need another mid diner. These guys will not last if they're gonna give us the same mediocre food we can get from bigger diners with more comfortable seating. At least the rest of them got better pancakes. If you're the manager and you're reading this, trust me when I say this. You may be busy now, but that will end. Start planning for a change. I recommend going down to City Limits Diner in White Plains to see what they're doing; if you really wanna stick to the NY style Diner vibes. Otherwise, find a niche. Find the thing that your head chef is passionate about, and let them make the best fking food in a 20 mile radius.
