The food is delicious. The focaccia bread and garlic fries are delightful. The slaw is incredible. Ive had the pulled pork sandwich, the Rachel (turkey), one of their wraps and the bread pudding. I've thoroughly enjoyed every meal and my desert. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My sister works here and she calls Stan and Jen dad and mom. Met them today and I can understand why. All to say, the food, service and ambience Here is like you are Home.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Here in Hector is a great spot for delicious brunch/lunch/BBQ. We make regular trips there from Ithaca. Great folks too!

We just went here for the first time. Our usual breakfast place, Toni's was short on help and the wait for food was at least an hour so she told us about this place. We were not disappointed. My wife had huevo rancheros, my son had French toast, and I had a special that had a Mexican influence that was really good. Everyone was very pleased with their food. Indoor and outdoor seating. The one downside is it doesn't open until 9 which is a bit late for me but well worth it if you can hold off breakfast until then. read more

Here is definitely a place you don't want to review so it doesn't gain too much attention. We stopped for breakfast on a Sunday. They have a lot of great staples but they blew me away with the specials. Fresh gumbo and chilaquiles were on the board so I decided to snag those since they were of note for the weekend. The gumbo was so fresh and flavorful and the chilaquiles were great and I added their fresh chorizo too. There's plenty of baked goods to choose from and even take home. Service is so warm and kind and you can see the kitchen for a home cooked feel. This is a GREAT stop in the Fingerlakes read more

I love this place. Be careful you don't miss it and drive right by. [[HIGHLIGHT]]So warming and inviting inside with great service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Every thing is homemade including the sauces. Local cheese and vegetables. We had a berry danish which was by far the best danish I have ever eaten. Cheap too! In the finger lakes? This is a must stop! read more

Here is a must stop while in Hector. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great ambiance and the staff was super friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] House made grape juice and BBQ sauce were both amazing.

This place was simply amazing! My wife and I came up for a long weekend - it was our first time up in the Finger Lakes. Outside of the great hiking, waterfalls, and wine, this place was the highlight. Fresh pies and treats constantly coming out of the open kitchen. Amazing smoked trout and eggs for breakfast! Definitely stop here for breakfast. read more

Focaccia French toast? Sign me up! This place is what we would call a hole in the wall serving up amazing food! It is very unassuming located right off the highway but we were blown away not only by the food but by the service. The staff was so friendly and kind and ensured we had everything we needed. We had the focaccia French toast which was a 12/10 and the breakfast sandwich which was an 11/10. Idk when I'll ever be back in this area but if I ever am I shall be back. read more

We almost missed this little gem as we travelled to Lodi for a weekend away. I ordered the ginger marinated fried chicken thighs (gf) and they were delicious. Hubby ordered the pulled pork and it was also good. Nice smokey flavor. We also got a whoopie pie and coconut custard pie for dessert...also delicious. Very nice people working the counter. I highly recommend! read more

We stopped here for lunch between wineries. The food was amazing! Even though it was right on 414, I felt like most people inside were locals. This is definitely a hidden gem. I ordered the Mexican pinto bean soup and a salad. My wife ordered the pork sandwich and a biscuit. We skipped the baked goods as we didn't want to be too full for drinking wine, but everything on display looked great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They are dog friendly but she stayed in the car because it was too cold and we wanted to sit inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will definitely return! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food in a cozy, unassuming environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will go back again sometime just for the yummy looking desserts. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a nice little dog.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

It is criminal that Here. has anything less than five stars. I never had the pleasure of eating at Just a Taste. When I moved to Ithaca and asked where all the good restaurants were, Ithacans were not shy in telling me that I'd missed the best of the best at Just a Taste. Needless to say, when I found Here. I understood what everyone was going on about! I come out at least once a month and would be Here. every weekend if it was closer. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The pro move is a hike in the National Forest and a liesurely brunch outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They're even open through the winter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The whole thing is only made better by the fact that Jen and Stan are dog lovers and just lovely, talented people. A real diamond in the "ruff". read more

This place is unreal. The food is clearly made with care and intention by someone who has a great eye for quality. It's creative, original, and SO good. I cant recommend this place enough. We dined in for breakfast (delicious--get the focaccia French toast) and took a banana bread pudding to go and absolutely devoured it. It took us 3 minutes to finish. I am going to lick the plate now. read more

We love going to breakfast at "Here". Lots of delicious choices to eat and all are served by especially friendly people.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great views from the open tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was lovely, the service attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The closeness of nature made unforgettably our meal there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Here was right across the highway from our airbnb, so we had to stop for a pre-winery breakfast during our trip! If you weren't staying in the area or if you hadn't heard about it before, it's fairly easy to miss when driving on the highway. But we're glad we stopped in! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Here is a cute little restaurant, featuring a large counter where you place your order and a large enough seating area. It's pretty no nonsense in terms of decorations, but it fits with the vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We visited on a Saturday morning, but it wasn't too busy and we had no issues finding a seat after we placed our order at the counter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is decently large considering the size of the restaurant, and it was hard to decide on my meal! Everything is made with fresh ingredients and made in house (including all the bread), and they focus on classics with a slight twist. I ultimately decided on the focaccia French toast, which was accompanied by a berry compote and whipped cream. I was intrigued by the base of focaccia (especially since it was homemade), and I was happy that it wasn't overly decadent or filling. It may have benefited from maybe one other flavor in the compote or in another topping, but overall, I was pleased. My husband went for the breakfast sandwich on focaccia with bacon, which he enjoyed. Similarly, he was intrigued by the focaccia as the bread, and he said it worked really well. The garlic potatoes were a nice addition, as well! We both enjoyed drip coffee with our meals, which was standard but good. Before we left, we wound up purchasing a day-old focaccia (discounted!) to enjoy back at our airbnb with dinner. Love that they sell their homemade products, and love that they offer a discount for "older" sells (you would have never known the bread was a day old)! Overall, we're glad we stumbled upon Here for breakfast during our trip, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a solid homemade meal before hitting the wineries! read more

One of the best breakfasts I've had in a long time! We came in the winter, so the outside area was closed. However, truly one of the best breakfasts I've had in many years. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Food is amazing, staff is wonderful, and even the guests are super friendly![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely recommend coming here! read more

Super good, quick breakfast to give us a base before our wine tour. Order at the counter and pick a seat, but it fills up quickly. I got the focaccia french toast which was delicious and the perfect amount. My husband got the steak and eggs which was HUGE. He enjoyed it but could only eat half bc of how big it was!! Different selection of juices which I liked. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute decor, awesome food options, and a cute pup visitor to boot![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Great food! Locally sourced ingredients and homemade baked goods. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Perfect little brunch spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

We had breakfast here this morning and it was one of the best breakfasts I've had in a long time! We tried the strawberry cornmeal French toast, blueberry and apple French toast, and smoked rainbow trout with focaccia. Every single thing we had, right down to the homemade salsas and sauces, coffee, and homemade breads, were delicious. We took home a banana caramel bread pudding and that was to die for, we devoured it in seconds. Finally, the service was so kind, generous, and cheery. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great homey place with quality food![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I'm so happy to find the folks that used to own Just a Taste. We went for lunch and the food was excellent! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service and ambiance of the place homey and casual.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was worth the drive to Hector. Looking forward to going back. read more

I heard about this place from foodie friends and sent a couple of tourist there last summer. But it wasn't until today that I finally got there. Yum! And yum again. Friendly. Efficient kitchen. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outdoor seating looking across Seneca lake.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great place to stop on a wine tour but limited hours. read more

the homemade biscuit was life changing!!! i got the special of the day as well, the pesto scramble and it was delicious. the person i was with got the breakfast sandwich and cinnamon bun and gave those 10/10 as well. so good, the people are so kind and the service is excellent.

Great new breakfast and BBQ place featuring local ingredients. Breakfast sandwiches and the focaccia French toast are incredible read more

Here - Focaccia French toast - Delis Near Me - Hector, New York

Best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. I am a savory, egg and meat person through and through- especially for breakfast. I also love and appreciate sauces like the chipotle aioli they had on the sandwich. My order was bacon sausage egg and cheese (cheddar) on focaccia with chipotle aioli. I ate it and instantly regretted not starting my food blog right then and there, or at least taking a picture of it. Insane. I would eat that everyday if I could. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience was great, the employees were cheerful, the ingredients are quality and local.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Please, if you are visiting finger lakes, this is where you have to go for your breakfast. I also got the maple cheesecake and cinnabon as desserts and I am not a sweets person and they were decadent. If anyone is reading this from the restaurant, excellent job. read more
