I thought I stepped back in time when you get good food for a very reasonable price with a friendly neighborhood vibe.

The Nest Tavern - The Nest Tavern in Apulia Station, NY

We visited The Nest Tavern and it was very good!…read more We were on a mission to take a long and winding ride through the country to see some early fall foliage, and I had been wanting to check out The Nest Tavern, located in the quaint area of Apulia Station, right near Lafayette. there was plenty of parking available on the right hand side, and we walked into the VERY RUSTIC and cozy bar/restaurant. A very busy, but friendly bartender informed me that they didn't have waitress service, but customers could simply order at the bar and then be notified with a convenient little remote buzzer that their food was ready. We both ordered the Mushroom Swiss Burger, which had nice sautéed mushrooms and melted Swiss cheese on it along with lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. We took a walk on the wild side and ordered tater tots along with our burgers and they were very tasty with a little ketchup drizzled on them. Yes, we normally opt for slightly healthier sides with our meals, but the tater tots sounded and tasted really good! We both devoured our meals and finished every bite and truth be told, did not eat another thing again that day because we were so full. One thing I liked about the is that the restaurant has these nice little, square stainless steel mesh, condiment caddies with everything you need in it that you can take right to your table. Another great feature about this establishment as that they routinely have live music performances every week from May through September and have a tall, covered, wooden pavilion for the bands to perform under with ample seating, tables, and bar service available. Our bill came to just $30 plus tip and we thought that was very reasonable, considering the friendly atmosphere, good food, and quality service. We will definitely be back, perhaps in the spring when the trees are blooming, and the first band of the season is ready to hit the stage. Food: Service: Atmosphere:

This was our first time to The Nest. We were interested in checking out their outdoor concert…read morearea. We arrived just as a local band was getting ready for a three hour set (4-7pm) on a Sunday afternoon. Cover charge was $5.00 each. There were quite a few people there, but there was still room to sit in the spacious outdoor deck/stage area. There's also an outside bar area to grab a drink, instead of having to run inside to the regular bar. Food was available, but we did not try anything. The indoor vathrooms were pretty small, but served the purpose. The music was very good, the sound was loud enough, without blaring out of the speakers. There's a roof over the outside deck, but it's in different sections, so the sun does shine though in areas, making it a little hot when it's hitting you. Our only complaint would be the amount of people that were smoking. There is no way to get away from the cigarette smoke wafting in your face. Other than that, it seems like a great venue to enjoy some live music, a drink and a bite to eat. We definitely plan on going back.

You know the kind of place that you see on TV where everyone is genuinely pleasant and interested…read morein what you have to say? That is the vibe that this place gives off, with some pretty great dishes to back up the great selection of unique beer. First showed up there, and immediately my friend (who had been there ONCE before) was recognized by name. I knew I was in for a good time. In all, we got two rounds of excellent beer, tater tots, and a sandwich. Of course, right now it is a bit difficult to manage safe and responsible eating establishments given the pandemic guidelines. However, I think these guys really do it right. Overall, I think that this place has got something to offer to younger crowds and older groups alike. If you get the chance, definitely check this place out and I know that you will not regret it.

What a cool find! Hole in the wall beer bar w/a great craft beer selection (they had a few on tap…read moreI've never had and that's saying something)! Repurposed railroad depot from the 19th century (the ceilings/floors r a total giveaway!) with a small bar area in the front and a cooler/seating kitchen area in the back and a very small patio off the bar. Part local watering hole, part beer bar all awesome! The bartender was great as were the regulars...eavesdropping on convos & people watching was part of the experience for sure! Come for a beer and stay for a show! The bartender Jim does up-close magic tricks!?! Def worth a pop-in!

Took a drive from Rochester to check out this brewery, and we were not disappointed! This Liquid…read moreState location has taken up residence in the former Beer Garden property along route 89. The brewery offers an *exceptional* view of Cayuga Lake, no matter where you are. There is plenty of seating between in the (open air with ceiling fans) building, the covered porch, and in the garden area. There are bocce ball and cornhole areas, as well as two skeeball machines (these were out of order during our visit, but hopefully they'll get them up and running soon!). The beverage menu is extensive, offering a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic options including kombucha, soda, wine, and a local whiskey. The aesthetics are clean, welcoming, and laid back in the best way. This is a place I could easily spend hours with a group, and everyone would be happy. During our visit, there was a family here with a few pre-teen kids, and it didn't feel inappropriate or uncomfortable, so it seems like a good family friendlier brewery. Food offerings are limited, a few pizza choices and a soft pretzel. We tried the soft pretzel and were very happy with it, and the mustard it was served with was delicious! We didn't try a pizza, but they looked very good! We visit this area several times a summer for visits to Taughannock, and this is absolutely going on our list of places we will be stopping at during those day trips!

This past summer, we were fortunate enough to be staying right down the road from Liquid State…read moreBrewing. My only gripe this spot is only open on the weekends - woe was me. I had to drive by the battened doors, lonely corn hole stations, and thoughts a fresh draft every day. I made it a point to visit the day before we headed back home for Connecticut. Even my wife and pup had a great time. Nice friendly staff. Open air games, seating, and indoor seats if the weather doesn't cooperate. Pizzas, wings, sampling flights, and case for home in CT. Aside from the food and grog, Elvis was live in the house!

Can we just start with the Pickle Flatbread? Oh and the fact that there are 30 different brew ON…read moreTAP!!! (My honey managed to try 28 of them. The last two were ciders, so he took a pass and just left it at 28...or SEVEN BEER FLIGHTS!!!) We also had the Mexican Street Corn dip and then couldn't leave without trying the GIANT pretzel (could probably feed four!!) Our hosts and wait staff were as nice as could be. It was a truly lovely way to spend a lazy Saturday afternoon! Can't wait to go back.

So we came here on a Friday night about 6 o'clock and they were supposed to be an open mic…read morehappening which we were excited about because we love performing an open mic. Since we've been out all day we were really hungry so we decided to eat something before we performed. At the moment there couldn't have been more than eight people in the whole place inside and out on the deck total. We were handed menus that had no prices on them. I ordered the buddah bowl with chicken strips and my husband got a quesadilla with steak. It took about 40 minutes for the food to come and the boot bowl was mostly a big bowl of greens with what couldn't have been more than a tablespoon of chicken chopped up on it. It was very tasty. My husband's quesadilla was the size you would expect loaded with cheese but literally one little tiny cube of steak in each of the six wedges. His quesadilla was tasty We only ordered water to drink because we were going to be singing later and it took about 15 minutes for the water to get to us. She "forgot". The whole time we were there nobody checked on us and place never got very busy no more than maybe eight people the whole time. We decided not to stay to sing because there was practically nobody there and the people who were there were outside on the deck while the place for the performers was inside in the bar. And as far as we knew we were the only people there who were planning to perform. The Buddha bowl which would've made a nice side salad to any other meal was $14, while the quesadilla was $13. In my opinion overpriced for what we got. We also bussed our own table.
