There's a live band at least earlier in the evening. We were there on a Wednesday with a prefix menu - farm to table veggie meal with option of adding grilled chicken. On the night we were there they also had a silent auction going to raise funds for a health clinic. Food was very good, great presentation - delicious creamy cucumber soup, mushroom quinoa and peach upside down cake (at $44 and $50 with chicken it was quite reasonable). Fantastic dining environment. Will definitely come here again on our next trip here.

The staff was accommodating and really went out of their way to find us comfortable seating. The food was so good, my husband who is not a chicken lover was so happy with his chicken sandwich (I wish I had gotten the actual name of the sandwich) he said he would order it again. My FIL loved his Shrimp Arugula salad. He couldn't stop eating it. My quiche was excellent so delicious , a blend of the ham, cheese and eggs with a flaky crust, and the soup was also delicious and creamy. I wish I had tried one of their lattes they looked so good. They had a steady stream of customers so they are busy. Try them out.

Six star review. We…read morecame out to Sharon Springs to wander around its eerie, strange landscape of abandoned spa hotels and soak up a little history, but we centered our visit around this spot, and it's a good thing. It's a gem worth making a detour for, even if you do nothing else in this hamlet. The proprietor, Tony, really cares about both quality and the customer experience. The fact they were out of the special Mac and Goat by 11 AM was a great sign -- they don't overdo things in overlarge batches, and the limited menu is focused around rotating specials. The heirloom tomato sandwich was simplicity itself, and utterly delightful. There's something amazing about being able to pick out your own tomato, like it was a lobster in a tank! (I also had a proper Middle Eastern coffee for the first time in eons.) It's a limited menu but again that bespeaks an attention to the particular items. The small seating area on a converted fourth season porch is wonderful. A variety of old repurposed kitchen tables and bright art on the wall, sunshine, a casual vibe, it is as perfect a café spot as you could want. We loaded up on their local custom balsamics and some baked goods to take away. The coffee plant blossom honey was a particularly interesting item we'd never seen anywhere before, and it indeed has a distinct flavor that's not really quite coffee-tinged but is unlike any other honey we've ever tried. If you go, buy some merch, keep this place afloat. Highly recommended

The food was absolutely fresh, delicious, and creative. We spoke with the owner when the rush cleared, and it's evident he cares deeply about his quality and service. I wish we had room for dessert! Buy a sampler flight of their made-in-house balsamic to take home- I'm glad I did!

Keep an eye our for their daily specials because some of their specials are amazing! They do have a regular menu as well. It is rather limited but the quality is always excellent. Delicious, freshly cooked meals and like others have mentioned, the portions are big! I live in the area and my partner and I usually go at least once a week when they're open! The staff/owners are super polite and you can tell that they have pride in what they do. The country theme is adorable and perfect for the area. The area doesn't offer too many restaurants given that it's a small rural town and they are a huge gift to us over here!

My husband and I went there when we moved to the area three years ago. We stood waiting to be…read moreseated, we were completely ignored for several minutes, and then some people who were obviously friends of the woman working there were seated ahead of us. We walked out and stayed away for three years. Yesterday, we decided to give them another chance, so we went back. There was no sign or any indication in any of the daily Facebook publicity that the dining room was closed, and that meal service is takeout only. So we went around to the takeout window, which is NOT handicap accessible (steps only, no ramp), and stand on line to finally learn that the dinner would not be ready for at least 25 minutes (this was at 5:30 PM, not exactly an off hour for dinner service). Did they honestly expect my disabled husband to stand in the blazing summer sun for half an hour? (There were no seats available by the window). I knocked on the door of the dining room hoping we could at least sit down to wait, but they didn't even answer. We left, we will NEVER return, and I will make sure to tell everyone I know in this little town to stay away unless you actually want to be treated badly. I don't care if your food is cordon-bleu, no business should treat their customers with such disregard. I guess they think that, since they are the only restaurant in town that isn't a bar, it's okay to be rude and unaccommodating. We drove to Cobleskill and had a lovely meal at the Cowboy Taquieria on Main Street.
