    Potatoe bacon and chive soup
    Margeritta M.

    I stopped into this lil restaurant I have passed it a few times and always wondered what it was like. When I walked in the atmosphere I saw was of an older almost 1950's style, the waitress was nice wearing the mask due to cov-19. I didn't have alot of time to stay I just stopped in to grab a quick bit so I ordered the potatoe bacon and chive soup. I noticed the soup was made homemade it was good although I felt it could use alittle more salt or maybe piece of bread or sour cream to add to it. There was two elderly ladies chatting while waiting for thier lunch hehe get it chat a wyle It's cute but I think it's in a private setting due to them not wanting alot of thru traffic. Its definitely unique and different.

    This cute place was recommended by locals and did not disappoint. We both enjoyed our breakfast and the service was friendly and fast. Good coffee! It is furnished with vintage dinette sets all in great condition. Would definitely eat there again.

    Chat-A-Whyle is as five stars as Broome County can get. Of course, I have a lunch weakness for soups and sandwiches. Seriously, if you add pumpkin or some spicy kick to my meal, you can basically guarantee that my stomach has found my heart and fallen in some sort of foodie love! Maybe it's my tastebuds intense infatuation that has left me swooning over Chat-A-Wyle, or maybe it's their classic, vintage inspired decor and continually impressive, affordable menu options. I have yet to try anything on their menu that disappoints or leaves me wondering what went wrong. Always made with seasonal, fresh ingredients that consistently match the description, I actively seek out at least one gathering of friends at this locally owned, gorgeously decorated eatery. Let me break it down for you, oh-doubtful eater: 1. Yes, the location is further out than most find satisfactory. But, I promise--fingers crossed, kiss my elbow, all the jazz--that it is worth the journey (ten miles, up hill, both ways--just kidding). Take a bike, enjoy the stroll! 2. Rave, swoon, drool! The food is entirely appetizing. Yes, please use a cranberry mayo on my turkey sandwich. Oh, you have vegetarian options (how rare for this area). And, my god--is that autumnal inspired soup with sweet cinnamon garnish. Chat-A-Whyle, you just get my flavor pallet. 3. Plastic dolls, 50's style metal dining tables, housewife with humor--I am pleased by your decor. I am inspired by your many vintage pieces, lining wooden shelves, invading my roomy dining space! I love! Granted: I must also include constant commentary and photo logs with companions during my visit; but, I love! 4. Service: This can be the one flaw. It's really hit or miss on the sweetness of your server and, I suppose, you could look at it as you are really just "one of the family" but I just prefer to ignore any bad service and let the delicious food wash my memory clean, absorbing all my gooey-brain matter with noms that make any interaction nearly invalid. 5. This place is perfect for any get together. BUT: Make reservations. Mother's Day plans? This is the perfect place to take Mom, Grandma, Nana, who-have-you female. Ladies catch-up? We'd like the booth in the back and please keep coffee coming! I would say that it's more of a femme type place. You may want to keep your nascar, hunter's dinner party to that dive bar down the street...but, hey, anyone can enjoy a tasty sandwich! Enjoy, foodies! This place is for you.

    Awesome bread soup bowls. It's a cozy home style restaurant. I've also seen it on tv as a documented haunted house

    This is a true hidden gem! Don't be fooled by the appearance. You're in for a great meal…read more Everything is fresh and made in house. The people in front of me weren't sure what to get and the owner was extremely helpful in explaining the menu and made some suggestions on things to try. The portions are huge and the prices are not. I can't wait to stop in here more regularly!

    So the wife and I found ourselves in Owego, and didn't want to do the burgers and fries thing at a…read moreMcDonald's or somewheres, we checked on Google and found this little Greek restaurant. The prices look really reasonable so we figured we'd give it a shot. When we arrived, the storefront didn't look like anything special, nothing really appealing to bring someone in, just kind of blended in with the rest of the block... And after entering, it still didn't really reach out and grab us. Not a lot of decoration, a few tables with chairs and a couple of booths, and a counter to order from which is perfectly fine but I didn't know having never been there if they had a wait staff or anything. So we looked over the menu for a minute and ordered a couple of dishes. My wife I believe had a chicken and lamb platter, and I had the fish platter. So far up to this point everything was fine but nothing was really over the top awesome, and then we sat down and ate. Oh my gosh that food was good. My wife absolutely loves tzatziki sauce which of course they had, and the chicken and lamb was served with rice and you get choices like lettuce and tomato and hummus and chickpeas that they can add to your platter. My fish platter was incredible. Her and I both commented a couple times to the gentleman at the counter that the fish was cooked perfectly. It was nice and lite and flaky and I wish there were more than just the two pieces on there. The price of everything did not break the bank by any means, and they do offer wraps, burgers, and breakfast items. We will definitely be returning customers...

I had a double smash burger I could not taste the meat it was hard to eat it. I just tasted veggies and sauce . But the onion rings were awesome.

    This place is a gem that is slightly off the beaten path in Endicott. I highly recommend a visit…read more First, let's start with the burgers. They are fantastic! For me, they are best eaten with limited toppings and no sauce. I'm not a huge fan of their burger sauce but others seem to like it but if you leave the sauce you get the full flavor of the burger and seasoning. I recently had to make a visit with a group to that place where there are nearly half a dozen guys that make burgers and as a test, I tried eating it the same way I'd eat it at here and discovered there was absolutely NO flavor. The best way to find out if a place makes good burgers is to eat it plain with little to nothing on it because if they are covering it all up with add-ons, they don't have a good burger, they just have cooked meat. TKC doesn't need the sauce but it's there if you want it. Better yet, they are reasonably priced and less expensive than any other burger joint in the area. (We are talking GOOD burgers here, not the fast food chains but even then...still probably cheaper.) Second, they have a fantastic hot honey chicken sandwich that has a lot of chicken on it. It is fried perfectly and the hot honey adds just the right touch of sweet and spicy to give it a wonderful flavor. Finally, sides of onion rings and fries are all done perfectly. I think personally the onion rings have the WIN here but either way you can't go wrong. Oh, and they have ice cream! That isn't the highlight for me, but they have a decent selection of flavors and are reasonably priced. My choice is the non-dairy cookie dough and peanut butter (I think I have the flavor right) and it tastes great. This place seems to always be busy and the owner is always cheerful and friendly. Do yourself a favor and make a visit and in the process support a wonderful local business! You won't regret it. P.S. Adding this - I've taken multiple people here over the past few months and not had a single person disagree with me on how great this place is. So, while the review is mine, I'm quite certain my family and friends would give the exact same 5-star review here.
