    We have been many times before. We love this spot so much. Such a cozy and inviting spot when you drive into Naples. Owners are very friendly, fast service. Not a ton of room in there, especially if you have a stroller.

    Smoked salmon breakfast

    I've stopped here a few times and it's always pleasant. This recent time I had a cappuccino and my friend got the smoked salmon breakfast. He said it was very good and the presentation was very pretty with fresh micro greens and fruit. This is a cute spot to order to-go or dine in. Local fresh ingredients. Will stop in again.

    Smoked salmon eggs Benedict

    Whoa! We were passing through and stopped because the reviews are so good. I can see why! It's a cute old school house - literally. Staff were friendly and gave great service, the prices are reasonable and the food is delicious. We ordered coffees, a couple of their handmade pastries and the smoked salmon eggs benedict. Incredible! Everything was delicious. Thank you!

    Hand pie

    Adorable cafe. Really great decor and nice touches all around. Chai was a tad sweet (possibly made with concentrate) but nice variety of alcoholic and non alcoholic coffee drinks. The cinnamon roll and hand pie were very tasty. I'd return for sure.

    The breakfast Sami and the Korean chicken and waffles were spectacular, wish I was in the area, was just driving by, glad we stopped by, the atmosphere was great

    Breakfast sandwich
    Brian G.

    Stopped in after kayaking this morning and glad we did! We each had the breakfast sandwich. The egg was cooked to perfection in the roll toasted nicely. The bacon was the star of the show with its candied sweetness. For drinks we have a bottled lemonade, coffee and chai. The drinks were tasty. My wife and daughter each had a trip to the restroom and reported that it was very nice. Clean and cute.

    We stopped here on a pretty last minute decision when we determined the route by it was more efficient. What great fortune to have stumbled upon the Old School Cafe. First impressions - a cute breakfast / brunch place in a repurposed old school house. Great aura, great curb appeal, and the owner was very pleasant and eager to please, but what about the rest? Well the cover accurately reflected the book, as the coffee was good, and the food was great! I had the korean chicken and waffles (delicious!), and our table also had pretty rave reviews about the breakfast sandwich, cinnamon bun and grain bowl. Everyone present left full, happy, and eager to return. Some other comments and details - Very easy to find, plenty of parking (it's just past the parallel-parking areas on the street, giving it enough space for it's own parking lot. There's seating both inside and outside, and the menu is small, creative, adaptable and suitable for different tastes. There's also a full bar if you're feeling brunchy. I will unquestionably be back if in the area again, and certainly recommend it.

    This place is just what it sounds like. Cute little restaurant in an old school house. When you first walk in there is a counter to place your order. In addition to some pastries the menu is written on chalkboards on the walls. Once you order you can sit outside at some tables out front or there are some in the back of the building. There is also a small bar in the back where you can order alcoholic drinks. The food was amazing and it is obviously a hit with the locals as we didn't go until almost noon on Sunday and it was very busy. The waffle was the lightest I have ever had and it was so good. I don't normally get waffles as they are so dense but this one was amazing. We also got a breakfast sandwich with pepper sauce which I wasn't sure about but it was also amazing. My husband got the berry lemon biscuit and he said it was very good. Definitely a place to try if your in the area.

    We stopped by yesterday to have lunch after a morning on the wine trail and we were so glad we did!…read moreBefore we talk about the food, just want to give a shout out to our waitress who was just phenomenal-- I wish I would have caught her name! She was so attentive and quick to help if we had questions. We tried the sampler, and others at the table had different brats. Everyone said their meals were great-- the sampler is more than enough for two people, and can certainly be a snack for a group of four. Each of the brats are seasoned so well, but my personal favorite was the andouille-- it was spicy and seasoned to perfection with a crunch when you bite into it. The bread that came with the sample was also great- really crispy and warm! We were also able to try each of the sauces, and the banana pepper mustard and beer mustard are delicious! So much so, we bought a jar of the banana pepper mustard to take home with us. There were plenty of seats inside and outside the restaurant. Definitely would love to come support this place again in the future!

    I can't really sit here and say this was a positive or negative experience; it was just kind of odd…read morebut ultimately it delivered what it was supposed to. My cousin chums and I stopped by here on Labor Day after our mini wine tour in need of sustenance aka real food (a quality all of the wineries we went to were severely lacking in). From what I could tell, this is sort of an extension of the Arbor Hill Winery - to access Brew & Brats, we actually ended up walking through what I assume was Arbor Hill's main gift shop/wine tasting area, which sold more in the line of quasi-bougie condiments than actual wine. We briefly considered doing a third winery tasting here but I just didn't like the vibe, so we continued on to the back of the premises where this restaurant/bar was. Perfectly pleasant in there; the main establishment seemed to be centered on a barn-like structure (it almost felt like it had a former life as a ye olde general store, then got cleaned out to be a bar), though we ended up sitting/eating right outside in a little pavilion area with picnic tables (great weather for it). I also used the facilities at one point, which were unique - also a bit barn-like and felt very...temporary storage unit but not in a bad way, if that makes sense. Everything was spacious and clean from my perspective. When in Rome, I think you get brats. There was understandably a Bavarian-themed tinge to this menu, but heavily Americanized. So sauerkraut was a pretty pervasive ingredient, but it also had a lot of mainstream salad and BBQ sides. Interesting for sure. I didn't want to complicate things after multiple wine tastings, so I opted to get the Arbor Hill Sherried Wine Sausage with a side of baked beans. Honestly not bad; the marinating of the sherried wine gave it a nice fruity/sweet tinge. I'm more of a hot dog connoisseur when it comes to my weenies and I'm not a fan of condiments; even if I were though, something this flavorful probably doesn't need to rely on them. And I can always get down with a toasted bun. The beans were just okay; too sweet for my palate. I was expecting something more savory given the bacon, but literally every other ingredient drowns it out. I'd remove the brown sugar - if the sauce is already sherried wine-flavored, you really don't need to double-down. The service was honestly a little strange/awkward. Our waitress was friendly enough and given what we were ordering, it would have been insane if the wait time was more than 10 minutes or so (and it wasn't). We were in and out of there relatively quickly, giving us plenty of time to test drive our Airbnb hot tub. But she was very flustered and agitated throughout our stay there, constantly apologizing for the chaos and wait times, which were nonexistent. Every time she came to our table, it was accompanied by a flurry of, "Sorry, it's just been CRAZY with all of these people," which, given that there were literally two other parties and tons of empty seats just wasn't accurate and made no sense. My assumption is that they had a crazy lunchtime rush or something that she was still processing and/or recovering from, but I really don't know. Regardless, it didn't really detract from the overall meal or anything. The prices were out-and-out fantastic. For a legit entree and sides, casual as they were, $15 or so was a legit deal. This whole Naples area was generally pretty affordable, to its credit. Not really my kind of food in the grand scheme of things, but it was fine for what it was. Hope our waitress got a good night's sleep at least.

They have kept the original recipes and added a few other things. They have a Facebook profile will daily updates. This is helpful beyond measure. I would highly suggest ordering ahead of time because this place is so busy during grape/fall season. It isn't uncommon to see several cars parked going to get their goods. I picked up a vegan grape pie. This makes me so incredibly happy they offer this since I transitioned my diet to vegan because of medical issues. The still have the original version of pie too. The tarts are a perfect size dessert. They offer several varieties but my cravings are usually for their grape variety. They didn't have chocolate chip cookies ready yet, still in the oven, but the smell was amazing wafting out of their business. The grape cookies are a must. A soft sugar cookie filled with delicious grape filling. Honestly there is no bad choice in this place. Only downfall for me is they are a drive from home.. although they have been delivering pies to buy at casa larga winery and a few other businesses near Rochester.

    WOW! While my experience with Cindy's was brief, my love of the baked goods is forever. I stayed in…read morethe car as my partner headed up to the door to order our goodies. He ended up grabbing a grape pie, a raspberry pie, and a couple grape cookies. I might catch some heat for this, but I preferred the grape cookies to the grape pie ALLLLLLL day! We dipped them in coffee the next morning and WOAH. These cookies are completely life changing. Cakey with that same delish grape filling in the center, it is a cookie experience unlike any other. The pies were excellent too, with the grape obviously edging out the raspberry for taste, texture, and general enjoyment. While the raspberry pie is super tasty, the sweetness gets to you a bit faster than the grape. I also don't love the huge amount of seeds present in any raspberry pie. Regardless, super fair prices at this amazing shop and a must do in Naples.
