Overall it was ok. We came here over Memorial Day Weekend while visiting Cooperstown and expected…read moreit to be packed, but it was a little dead inside. The whole bar area was closed and they only had one small section of tables open. No kids menu but luckily my son is ten and was able to polish off a regular sized burger. The smoked brisket sandwich was pretty good, and my girlfriend enjoyed her Mac and cheese with brisket. Both decent but nothing to rave about. The beer selection was rough. Almost no local beers available, no prices listed, no indication if a beer was available on draft or in cans/bottles. I was surprised that with a world class brewery right in their backyard (Ommegang) they only had one beer from them available, and it was a can pour. Prices are on the higher end as well. $15 for a plain hamburger with fries and $16 for plain Mac and cheese before you add any toppings. It was a decent dinner, but if we are ever in the area again we would probably seek out other options before coming back here.

I ordered the brisket plate, and it was delicious tender, flavorful, and with a perfect bark. We also tried the smoked brisket ravioli, which were more like gyoza but absolutely fantastic nonetheless! The fried pickles were homemade and deliciously crisp.

We were seated quickly, and our server started off strong--she was friendly, attentive while taking…read moreour order, and offered great suggestions. She offered to bring out a couple dipping sauces for our fries, and I asked for the bourbon jelly, which she was willing to do. That initial interaction set a great tone. The food itself was very good--both burgers were delicious. Unfortunately, after we placed our order, the service dropped off completely. We waited about an hour for our food, with no check-ins, no water refills, and no acknowledgment of the delay, even though our server walked past our table multiple times. At one point, I had to get up and find someone to talk to. I asked a man near the front for a manager, explained we had been waiting an hour, and pointed out our table. No one ever came over afterward to follow up. We were later told there was a large party, which is understandable--but that's not something customers or servers can control. A simple check-in or acknowledgment would have made a big difference. Instead, we were told we "should have said something," despite no one coming to the table. At the end, we waited again for the check, and when my daughter calmly tried to explain our frustration, the server spoke over her and said, "I'm almost 50--I've been doing this since I was 17," which came across as rude and unprofessional. The food was good, but the lack of communication, attentiveness, and management involvement made this a disappointing experience.

It was awesome to see all of the vegan options -- makes it so much easier to go in groups. Burgers were wonderful, and we left very full. We also got a garden house salad, which was OK -- but next time, we would probably skip that (or maybe try a different salad). Servers were super friendly and helpful. Biggest disappointment was that we first went here on the last day of our trip, and didn't have a chance to come back. We definitely will be back the next time we're in the area.

We just ordered burgers and fries, but they were fantastic. Great food, great atmosphere, and exactly what we needed after a morning of baseball. And Karen was absolutely wonderful! She was the exact opposite of the definition of a "Karen." She was smiling, welcoming, genuinely excited to have us there, and just an absolute joy. Then there was the Long Island Iced Tea. After spending the entire morning at the baseball field and heading into the afternoon, YES, I needed one! Stephan made it, and I have to say, it was probably one of the best Long Island Iced Teas I've ever had. Phenomenal! So, if you're looking for a place in Cooperstown to grab a great meal, have a good drink, and get a little much-needed mental health time after baseball, this is your place! Thank you, Double Day Cafe, for knocking it out of the park! Great food, great drinks, and even better people. We'll definitely be back! If you want a good meal and good drinks in Cooperstown, come here!

We wound up parking a block away as they were pretty busy. You can dine in or take out. Table area was very clean. You place your order and they bring everything to your table. Service all around was excellent and smooth. Everyone went above and beyond. The kid got a small buffalo chicken pizza. I got a meatball parm sandwich. Meatball sandwich was very good. Quality of the meatballs was impressive. Sauce had a nice kick to it. They didn't cheap out on the amount of sauce or cheese. I made the right choice. I snuck a piece of the Buffalo Chicken pie. Chicken was on point. Nice size pieces. Not over powering with spicy sauce. Personal preference, dough was a little too thick for me, but again, that's my personal preference. Kid definitely enjoyed it. Boxed up a few slices for later on. A great alternative if you're in the area.

Food was not the highlight (at least not what we had). We were disappointed the New England clam chowder was swimming in bacon. Beat salad was delicious as were the fish tacos. Lobster roll was recommended for the portion size - which was spot on - you fed practically a full lobster. But it had zero flavor. Like they shell it, cool it and just dump it on the bun. End of the season so maybe they're over it. lol Carrot cake was delicious!!! Will definitely return for the ambiance and try other menu items.

We also know great service when we see it and always love to give credit where it's deserved! We called ahead with a large team of about 30 people and were told they could get us in. When we arrived, they were very transparent that they were working with a small crew, just two girls out front and one guy in the kitchen. With a group our size, we were a little nervous at first, but we had absolutely nothing to worry about! Zoey was our server and she was amazing. She handled our entire group with so much grace and professionalism. She kept everything organized, made sure the kids' food went in first, stayed on top of drinks and orders, and somehow managed to get all 30 of us taken care of and on our way in great time. The bartender was also incredibly nice and helpful, and together they kept everything running smoothly despite being short-staffed. The food did not disappoint either! The Reuben, burger, and Reuben burger were all fantastic, and of course the boys loved the wings and boneless wings. If you're visiting Cooperstown or heading to the Baseball Hall of Fame, definitely make Cooley's Stone House Tavern one of your stops. Great food, great service, and a hardworking staff that made sure we were taken care of. We'll definitely be back!

We enjoyed our orders on the back deck, outside and under some shade.

We were surprised by how packed the restaurants all were at 11:30 a.m. I would not say that the service at Sal's was good. We weren't helped when we noticed that there wasn't any seating (we were planning to just eat in the car or on a bench). One of the workers was pretty upset about us bringing Service Dogs inside (which is legal). Another offered water for the dogs, but never actually brought it. Then it took over ten minutes to get the food brought out to the back patio seating. Definitely not a service first vibe, more like "you should be happy that we are serving you."
