Nothing fancy, but for a small cafe, it provided a solid breakfast option. The name is a fun reference to the purported inventor of baseball. It's not a very big space, but we didn't have any issues getting a table. The prices are good, and the service was great. We shared a yogurt parfait that featured a ton of strawberry slices and honeyed granola chunks. They have some combo meals, and the French toast, bacon and eggs were all satisfactory. We got the food quickly as well. It's nothing fancy, but it gave us what we needed: a tasty and reasonably priced breakfast. read more

Took the kid here before a game at Dreamspark. We got lucky and were seated right away. Very clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Bonus... Bathrooms were very clean as well. I got the special which was the breakfast quesadilla. As always, I also got a side of corned beef hash. Breakfast quesadilla was out of this world. Perfect portion for breakfast. Good amount of cheese, egg and sausage. Must try if they have it. Corned beef hash, I wouldn't get again. Average at best. Just seemed very dry and "crumbly" is the best that I can explain it. Great place to stop and eat when spending time in town. read more

would not recommend this cafe. The waitress was extremely rude. We came in and were seated. she gave us menus and walked away. A party if three gentlemen came in right after us. The same waitress asked for their drink orders. Never asked us. She brought their drinks and then asked for their meal order. In the meantime, she walked by us at least a dozen times and never took our drink order or meal order. The service is terrible here!! read more

Great food, great service. Wasn't expecting anything spectacular but the Cuban sandwich special was phenomenal! Kids got burgers which were excellent. Wife had a creamy chicken soup which was also great. Close walk to HOF, perfect lunch spot before, during, or after a visit. Cool vibe inside with the old school baseball decor. AND for the adults, excellent selection of drafts and spirits at the bar. Check them out. read more

This place is so quaint! I came here with my boyfriend (also known as my date in my other reviews) and my date got the goddess sandwich. He says it wasn't bad. I got the butternut squash and bean enchiladas which was absolutely delicious. I also had the Reese's ice cream pie which was overwhelming. Definitely good if you like chocolate and Reese's. The service was speedy and friendly. I would go back here and get the enchiladas again. They have some decent vegetarian options. read more

It's a really cute cafe walkable from the HOF. Lots of memorabilia. It was completely full I think little leagues were in town but we were seated right away. It's small inside but quaint. Staff were very nice. Food came out very fast like immediately after getting our drinks. Everything was yummy. Their fries dipped in their honey mustard - delicious. Prices were normal except kids meals I thought too much and doesn't include a drink. $60 for 2 adults and 2 kids. read more

Lovely little cafe, just a block down from the Baseball Hall of Fame. Small inside but with quick service and great food. 4 adults, $80. Not bad! read more

I'm actually shocked that I walked out before the waitress brought out drinks. Two of us were ready to order our food when the waitress came for our drinks. She said she couldn't take our food order at that time. She had to go to other tables first? I've never experienced such service. She could've easily take the food order and submitted it-as we only had two items. I then went to the bar as I saw two empty chairs and thought maybe we could order food more quickly. Two bartenders and not one acknowledged me as I tried to get their attention. Had to walk out. Busy weekend with baseball tournaments-I get it, but could be a little more accommodating. read more

This is a small restaurant, but service is fast! There are some great food options on the menu. I appreciated the allergy friendly options. Service was fast and everything came out as should be. Staff was friendly and helpful. They really know how to get people in and out so even if you wait a little bit it isn't bad. read more

Popped in after a visit to the HOF - it was VERY busy but luckily 2 spots at the bar opened up so we snagged those. For a tourist spot in a tourist town next to a major attraction I was VERY pleasently surprised. Some beers on tap - good cocktails. Both me and my husband got burgers and they were VERY good. We also got a side of macaroni salad that was a delight. The bartenders were fun to talk to even though they were busy. You'll probably end up here if youre around anyway but it was a good find. read more

We were lucky to get a table as it was very crowded. You'll need to be patient with the staff as they are very nice but slammed. They don't serve pancakes. The place has lots of cool baseball photos and artifacts on the walls. Lots to take in. The bar area is large and has tvs playing sports. read more

This was a great spot for our families and 12U ball players to have lunch. Great food and amazing service. Our waitress Rebecca was superb and loved to talk with us and teaching us the proper names of the local towns. Even entertained us on our weird request for fry sauce. The service and food was so good we went back again on a different day. read more

Stopped in on a rainy day in Cooperstown and walked through the door right at 11:00 AM. We were told they were "transitioning from breakfast to lunch," and while they could seat us, they wouldn't be able to serve food until 11:30 AM when lunch officially started. Honestly, I've never seen anything like that in all my travels. Just a 30-minute sit-and-wait policy. It's a strange and inconvenient way to handle a meal transition, especially when you've got hungry customers ready to order during a busy tournament week. I hate to leave a review like this, but it was ridiculous. read more

Great spot for a quick breakfast before exploring cooperstown downtown and ofcourse the baseball hall of fame. They also have a breakfast bar for some brunch drinks. Service was quick and efficient! Would be back! read more

We were celebrating our Wedding anniversary in Cooperstown and wanted a great local place to eat. The breakfast and dinner was amazing , The staff were so friendly and engaging . Even the bartender did magic tricks for the kids I would highly recommend the smoked ham to go with the eggs at breakfast and hot maple syrup for the French toast. Best local flavor in town ! read more

We stopped here for a late lunch after visiting the Baseball Hall of Fame on the recommendation from a docent there. It was a short walk away and we thought it was great! They had several daily specials. Two of us got the burrito off the special - it had a mixture of delicious pulled pork and ground beef in a sun dried tomato wrap. I got the Reuben sandwich with house made corned beef. It was outstanding. We highly recommend this cafe if you are in the area! read more

Delicious spot loved the roasted turkey avocado BLT, and the chili was very good. They have a little of everything which was great.

Son and I arrived before the Hall opened, so we decided to have breakfast before. This is right up the road from the Hall on Main Street. A small place, but they actually have a full bar inside. My son got the Sunrise Sandwich and I had the Smoked Ham and Swiss omelette. We both liked our choices and they were just the right size to hold us over until our next meal. Service was great and they had very reasonable prices. read more

I tried to beat the crowds on Hall of Fame weekend. I got in late morning. Breakfast had just ended. I like breakfast but I had breakfast already at the hotel. I choose a Reuben sandwich and enjoyed the company of three young local men who were finishing their breakfast, drinks and nursing their hangovers. I got in before the crowds and was mainly with locals. Kelsey behind the bar charged my phone for me while I ate which I appreciated. read more

Excellent and good value. Food and service was great! Much better than the hardball cafe. read more

Yeah this place is pretty much perfect. At least for breakfast which we had twice while in Cooperstown. Service is great and the food odd top notch. Real cheddar cheese, fresh eggs, and maybe a small thing but the absolute best toast I've ever had. Alcohol is also a nice touch if you need a bloody to start your day. read more

We had finished up at the Hall of Fame, and came out to it raining buckets so wanted to go someplace close. We stumbled into Doubleday Cafe. It is a small, tight space as they are trying to get as many tables as possible in. We waited about 15 minutes to be sat, but this was a Saturday in the summer - so Cooperstown as a whole was very busy. We ordered a French onion soup, Fried chickpea croquette on a pita, and a Philly cheese steak. Food came out fast, hot, and was delicious. Would return. read more

Service was good, food was good. I had the steak sandwich and loved it, my husband and son had the burger they said it was good, I had a bite and not the best but not the worst. read more

One of the absolute best Reuben sandwich es that I've ever eaten! Our server told me that the corned beef was specially prepared in house. Wish I could have tried more of the menu. read more

Food was fine but nothing special. The servers were really nice despite it being extremely busy. I'd try something else.

i got a veggie burger that came with sauce on the side, that had a hair in it. took it out and chose to just not eat the sauce, because whatever it happens i guess. but the burger wasn't that great, and gave me food poisoning. overall not a good experience. read more

Visited on our trip for our son to play at Cooperstown. The people are still very nice and the atmosphere is great. The food is somewhat average. My son's burger was burnt and they fixed it right away. Our server did share that the regular cook wasn't there so that could be why the food was sort of bland. Otherwise, great place and we do recommend it! read more

Doubleday Cafe - The image shows a white plate with a toasted sandwich cut into halves, French fries, a pickle wedge, and small containers of ketchup and a creamy dipping sauce. The sandwich appears to contain meat and possibly cheese, with a crispy, toasted bread exterior. The French fries are golden and crispy, and the pickle wedge adds a green color contrast. The sauces are served in small cups, one with ketchup and the other with a creamy dip. The background is blurred, focusing on the food presentation. - American Near Me - Cooperstown, New York

Not a local, but an interloper. Have a sentimental love for the establishment. Came once a year around Christmas to get bloody Marys and a breakfast sandwich. Would then peruse cooperstown for Xmas gifts for my fam in Montgomery county. Always had great service, food and drink. Went back in April with my girlfriend and experienced very much the same service! Quality establishment read more

Delicious friendly breakfast spot! We dined in mid September on a Wednesday morning and it was steadily busy but we got a table right away. Great location. Great staff. Nice menu with several additional specials. I really liked my french toast. My parents both got a scrambled special with bacon spinach onion cheddar. It was very good. We all liked it. Might eat there again tomorrow! Cute baseball and local decor! read more

Stopped in for lunch and really disappointed with food. Staff was friendly and sat us down quickly but the food took long to come out after we ordered. Also the food was not good. Mac and cheese for child and Kraft box cheese is better. Do not get fajita bowl. Chicken felt liked it was cooked 3 days again and re heated. Rice, from a box and same, felt reheated. Not good and do not recommend. Skip. More options in the same vicinity that won't upset your stomach after. A turkey vierten was also ordered and it was not tasty at all. Avoid. read more

Yummy, fun atmosphere and service with a smile! Hubby ordered pulled pork & I went vegan

Fantastic lunch menu. Highly recommended anything we had (fried chicken sandwich with jalapeño cheddar spread; turkey avocado BLT, chick pea croquette salad and the broccoli cheddar soup). The soup was ESPECIALLY delicious! Great atmosphere in the heart of Cooperstown. read more
