Hank C.

Solid little new store, took over for the old one on Meadow, and they have gas, an ice cream window (swirl symbol) and plenty of ice cream and milk (deposit for the glass bottle can be returned to them). Chocolate milk here is great- while the traffic on the road is a bit much, parking is easier than the old store. Store # 131 for those looking at that.

Receipt from purchase in question. The associate incorrectl identified the purchase as "soft" ice cream.

I am a regular Byrnes customer. My wife and I get our two cars gassed up there almost exclusively at the Ithaca facility, and my daughter and I often buy ice cream there. I usually buy a small coffee milk shake (if that flavor is available), and my daughter gets a small cone or cup; both have been relatively generous in size, and the service has been fine. At 3:30 pm, Wednesday, July 13, I ordered a "small cup" and received a single scoop that was approximately the size of a human eyeball. I have never seen such a small serving of ice cream, and I said so as I went to the cash register to pay. The server (a slender middle age man that I don't recall having seen before) ignored my comment and processed my payment; I started to walk out, but I changed my mind and placed the cup on the counter by the ice cream as I left, saying, "You can keep this. It's just too ridiculous." The Byrne sales associate then said, "You want more? Why didn't you say so?" and went to put more ice cream in the cup. I said, "That's not how it usually works" (meaning that retail ice cream shops don't dicker over the size of their helpings, in my experience). He added, "You just had to fucking ask!" at which point I headed toward the door. He then added, "Fucking asshole!" and threw the ice cream at me. It landed near the newspapers. I left this account in the contact form on the Byrne web site requesting response, but three days later I have heard nothing.

This is a pizza Josiah made "Night Owls". Need I say more. Their food speaks for itself. Ras Ipsa Lacquer, "This thing speaks for itself.'

After a long hiatus, I finally made my triumphant return to North, this time with my girlfriend, to relive the magic and, of course, put their food to the test. We went for the Tompkins Burger ($8.49) -- a classic setup with onions, tomatoes, pickles, and lettuce. No sauce included, but that's a choose-your-own-adventure situation at the condiment station. My girlfriend gave it a 7/10, and honestly, that feels right. It's a solid, no-nonsense burger that exceeded my size expectations (which is half the battle with late-night food). I also really love their the boneless wings. Specifically, the sweet chili and honey mustard flavors. Maybe I'm biased (I would eat chicken for every meal if society allowed it), but these wings slap. Flavorful, saucy, and the perfect balance of sweet and tangy -- 10/10 would recommend :) Beyond the hot food, Nasties is the ultimate convenience stop. Need snacks? Drinks? A pint of Cornell ice cream to emotionally support you through finals? They've got you covered.

Even though it's called nasties, it's really not exactly nasty food that you're getting here.

I've gotten the burger, which was just about okay. The breakfast sandwich was pretty average too. Nasties is clutch when it's 1AM, but you can find better food during the daytime.

GreenStar emerged as an alternative to some of the other prepared food marketplaces in Collegetown,…read moreand its purpose strictly within the borders of Collegetown is great - there's nothing else that sells moderately priced groceries for those without cars on Cornell's campus. The location is great, and the hours are pretty flexible (8 am to 11 pm). For a food market strictly within Collegetown, GreenStar is a solid 4 stars. However, compare GreenStar to Wegman's, and it can't come close to compete based on selection, and can't touch Tops or P&C Fresh on prices. The problem with GreenStar is that it doesn't solve the basic need it was intended to serve, which is to present a feasible grocery option for Cornell students. I've gone to GreenStar in a pinch or if I need a quick snack in the afternoon, but it will never be my go-to source for major grocery shopping. The groceries are all organic or specialty foods, which I like for certain items (salsa, for instance, is a food of which I always buy local varieties), but if I need boxed pasta I want a $1 box of Barilla, not some fancy organic hand-made pasta. The prepared foods are nice, but I personally prefer the selection at CTB, and prices are similar. All in all, I'm glad GreenStar is open in Collegetown, but it doesn't really solve any of the problems it intended to.
