    Reese's ice cream pie which
    Patricia M.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Great place. Very hospitable, have a bunch of TVs and fun baseball memorabilia. Hot chocolates were immediate hits for the kids. Good portions and very delicious food; grilled cheese, bean burrito, chicken enchiladas Save room for the desserts toll house cookie dessert. Devoured it all

    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!

    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.

    It was so nice I went twice. In town for a conference, first night alone and the waitress was so delightful, the food was so good, and atmosphere so inviting I came back with colleagues. Take advantage of the specials!

There is a bar as well as booth seating but no direction or indication of waiting to be seated or seating yourself. I didn't want to go unnoticed so I sat at the bar. (Most of the tables are past the entry way and bar area). There was a family group, a few couples and a group of guys playing darts off to the side. I sat there for more than five minutes before I was even acknowledged. I know this because I could see the Guinness Countdown to St Patrick's Day (down to the second) from my seat. There were 3 girls behind the bar but one seemed to be doing most of the bar work. As I put on my jacket to leave, I finally had the attention of one of the girls so I decided to take my chances and stick with my dinner plan. She got me a menu and asked for my drink order. There weren't any hard ciders on tap but they did have canned Awestruck (local). I noticed the fried pickle appetizer and asked her about it. She told me they were spears and very popular. I decided to take her recommendation and ordered them, along with a Cooley's Handmade Burger with sautéed mushrooms and swiss cheese. My pickle fries came out first since they were an app and I can tell you two things about them...the portion was huge and they were absolutely the best I've ever had! Not long afterward, my burger arrived and that was really tasty as well. I opted to bring the rest of my pickles home and I can tell you that even the next day, with the help of the air fryer, they were still tasting great! I am so glad I stayed!

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.

He had a NY strip. Both were perfectly cooked. We were so full and satisfied at the end of the meal that we didn't have room for dessert, but we loved the food so much.

I had always been scared to go to the Happen Inn, as it's in the basement and one can't see much of it from the street. There aren't a lot of options in Little Falls, so we decided to take a chance and are thrilled that we did. The staff was really friendly and the other people in the bar didn't stare at us (like some local people do). There's a pool table and lots of tv's. It's light enough to not be sketchy, but not too bright. There was also jukebox music playing, but it wasn't so loud that we couldn't hear ourselves talk. They have lots of beer options and cheap prices. The food was also delicious (if cooked on a visible, greasy stove) and inexpensive. We had a steak quesadilla that easily weighed five pounds, full of cheese, steak, fresh mushrooms and griled onions, and a thick burger, topped with onion petals, cheese and sauce. They have daily specials and an interesting bar top. If you have to be in Little Falls, this is the place to go.
