Service was fast- wish they were a bit more warm/friendly to match the warmth of their decor/interior design, but at least the food was good. We got baked goods- the croissants- correct flake, buttery, and large. This is a proper croissant. Sandwiches also good flavor- I got the chicken salad. Quiche was also a good choice.

On a peak-fall foliage drive through the finger lakes we pulled over to grab some coffee at the nearest spot. Had no idea we were walking into such a gem. We loved the whole vibe here and got a few bags of beans to support this cafe. It's clean, friendly, and clearly popular amongst locals and visitors alike. We're grateful for having discovered Cafe 19!

THIS RESTAURANT DOES NOT LIKE BLACK PEOPLE!!! 6 of us went here this morning 2/9/2026. We walked in…read moreand were met with stares from EVERYONE. The restaurant was NOT crowded. The waitress looked at our group with disgust and said, "we don't have seating for 6 people together." We just looked at each other with confusion. A Caucasian couple got up, said we can have their table and we pushed 2 tables together. There were plenty of empty tables in the restaurant to make accommodate a party of 6. The stares continued, so we left. The Green Apple clearly did not want African Americans in their establishment. DO NOT GO HERE! They don't deserve our black dollars!

There are daily specials as well as a regular menu. I opted to go with a small spinach salad, you can choose larger small, as well as a cup of tomato basil soup. The salad was magnificent and beautifully arranged, and the soup was delicious. The atmosphere is really nice and in the warmer weather there are seats out in the back and on the front porch. The women running this establishment are lovely and aim to please. We ordered at the counter and they brought our food out all at the same time , no small feet since there were about 12 of us. Will definitely return when I'm in the area.

A nice variety of sides, we got Mac salad and the Orzo, both delightful and reminding us of summer during this tough winter. We brought some homemade cookies home and yeah, you need to get some of those too. Absolutely wonderful experience, absolutely adorable cafe and we are very excited to return soon! Enjoy!!

I don't mind waiting a little longer for a gluten free breakfast sandwich knowing that he cracks eggs fresh on the griddle every time. The sandwiches do not leave you feeling hungry! The loaded tots are truly loaded and could easily make another meal. It feels like highway robbery getting such a delicious, non frozen sandwich for the same price as a lousy Dunkin equivalent. This is a hidden gem tucked away in the first level of an office building. They have great specials, huge portions, and I love supporting a smaller business. I've heard great things about their catering! Looking forward to trying their lunch next.

Nassau is one of the many little towns in our region that was completely devastated midway through…read morethe last century after the trolley system shut down and city people suddenly had no reason (or no way, if they didn't own a car) to stop by. It's pretty cool, then, to see new little spots like Daisy's popping up right after the new bike and pedestrian trail built over the old trolley line opened. Coincidence? Maybe! But if you're passing through rural Rensselaer county on your bike and feeling a little peckish, then Daisy's is an excellent new breakfast and lunch option just a short distance off the trail. Daisy's is brand new, so there are still kinks to work out -- our lovely waitress was struggling with her fancy electronic ordering machine, and there was a lot of confused running around in the kitchen. The food, though, was absolutely solid. My mom was a bit skeptical about the price of her BLT before she ordered, but took it back once she received her gigantic sandwich made with perfectly fresh ingredients and served with a mound of some of the tastiest Mac salad that either of us had ever had (plus a bag of chips!). My cup of the soup of the day was hot and flavorful (if slightly over over salted). The weakest link in the whole meal was the oddly soft hard roll for my breakfast sandwich: I'd ask for it toasted next time. Daisy's also serves local Tierra Farms coffee, which is a nice touch, and there were some really nice-looking treats in the pastry case. Overall this is a super cute little place that does a pretty good job of hitting the sweet spot between an old-fashioned small-town diner and a more modern cafe (with plans to add more vegetarian/vegan options to the menu). I'll absolutely come back, and I hope that places like this continue to open up and thrive in small communities around the region.

The reviews on YELP were positive for The Mustard Seed, so we had to check it out for ourselves. First impression was that I LOVED the smell of the store. It smelled like patchouli, sandalwood, and palo santo. I liked the variety of vitamins and other natural products in the store, including their selection of spices and herbs. The cafe is located in the back with seating inside and outside. My husband ordered the Harvest Salad and a soup and I had the Tuna Salad on a wrap with soup. Both of our meals were excellent and what we wanted for a healthy lunch. The Thai soup was flavorful and delicious, the tuna salad was light and fresh, and the harvest salad was fresh and the mix of the Gorgonzola cheese with the apples was very good. Highly recommend if you're passing through this area!
