    Waffle Fries with hamburger sub
    Rebecca S.

    This is a gem in Holley which is a 5 min drive from Brockport. The menu is huge! My husband's fried chicken was great & the coleslaw was the best either of us had ever had! I'd love to get the recipe! I had a stuffed ground beef burger which was nothing special. I should have tried something else! The chili was good & the crisp bread they served with it was great. It would have been good instead of the sub roll I had. Our waitress was so nice, informative, & not a hoverer!!

    Everything Omlete with hash browns and rye toast.

    We had a terrific breakfast at Sam's and the coffee just kept coming. The everything omlete was huge. I could only eat half if it. My husband had two eggs, pancakes, and bacon. This classic small town square diner was perfect. We also took a walk to the nearby falls located down a path behind the diner near the historical society.

    Very nice diner. We were in Brockport looking for somewhere to eat and this was only about 5 minutes away. They had a large selection and the diner was clean and neat. The dinners were tasty and if I'm looking for a diner I would definitely go here ahead. Bonus, Holly falls is about 2 minutes down the road and gorgeous!

    My wife and I went here for dinner last Friday and really enjoyed it! They have a wide variety on the menu and the food was delicious! Our waitress was very friendly too!

    Wow! We need more of these type of diners in Buffalo.... fair prices, excellent food, huge menu, and, of course, nostalgia! I worked up an appetite hiking around Holley falls, so we were definitely in the mood to eat once we got seated, I ordered a chicken deluxe sandwich (with ham and swiss) and opted for macaroni salad as a side ..... my father got a cheeseburger club (a new twist on a club that needs to be added to every menu) with chips . The bill with 2 beverages only ended up being a little over $20 ! Service was friendly and quick, just what you would hope for! And the food hit the spot! Thank you Sam for providing such an awesome dining experience!

Omg, everyone - stop your search and just visit! Coleens is truly phenomenal. Fun fact - Coleens is a one woman show that's been around for about 20 years now - she's the greeter, the server && amazing, amazing cook. She makes the bagels, bread & everything with TLC - so much love. Be kind & call ahead, it gets so busy and a little heads up goes a long way! We love the artwork and common sense rules - Coleens is such a treasure. Sam ordered the veggie bowl & I ordered the breakfast sandwich on her homemade everything bagel w a side of homefries. Try her homemade flavorful hot sauce! (If we could fit more food in we would've squeezed in the biscuits & gravy && the French toast - next time, next time!) Support your local businesses!! Thank you Coleen (:

    Ever since Bent's Opera House opened, I've been curious and wanted a reason to try Harvest for…read moredinner. The opportunity finally presented itself and, overall, it was a really nice experience! Three of us had made reservations for 6pm on a Thursday and when we arrived, there were zero issues. Parking for Harvest is primarily street parking but there are smaller parking lots nearby. The interior comes across fancy, modern, with nice views of Main St. and as you walk in to the dining room, the open-kitchen to our left and a warmly lit, nicely stocked bar to our right. We were seated at a table towards the middle of the dining room. At 6pm, most tables were empty but when we were leaving there were a good amount of people at both the bar and seated in the dining room, so it seems like people tend to come for a later meal. Our waitress came over and poured us waters and provided drink and food menus. This was a first for me - the menus lit up! Our waitress though was incredibly courteous and personable, she did a fantastic job checking on us. To kick the evening off, I ordered their Honey Hibiscus cocktail, which is mezcal, Grand Marnier, hibiscus, ginger, honey, cinnamon, lime, and fee foam. This was a nicely balanced cocktail with a more floral, fruity flavor. With the open kitchen concept, it was neat to see the chef and cooks working on our meals as we relaxed, talked, and munched on some warmed focaccia-like bread with a freshly made balsamic, olive oil, herb dip. The bread was so soft with the perfect amount of chew on the crust/exterior, and served warm. For dinner, I ordered Pappardelle Mornay and added (perfectly grilled) chicken breast for a few more dollars, which is simply pappardelle pasta in a creamy cheese mornay. Our waitress crushed some black pepper atop my dish before I started in. This was excellent - The pasta itself tasted so fresh, the cheese mornay was indeed very creamy, and the grilled chicken breast was cooked, seasoned, cut, and portioned perfectly. I am really glad I added the chicken breast to this dish as I'm not sure the pasta itself would've filled me up. I'd definitely order this again! To wrap up our meal, since it was Thursday, there's a "1/2 off Nightcaps" special, so each of us enjoyed a cold foam espresso martini afterward, which is coffee-infused vodka, Nue vodka, FAIR Café liqueur, dark crème de cacao, Steamworks espresso, chocolate bitters, vanilla syrup, and topped with an infused cold foam, which we went with the Frangelico Hazelnut cold foam, and a few espresso beans. This was ridiculously rich and delish! Harvest is an intimate, elevated dining experience, designed to have you stay a while, relax, and enjoy a more personal meal. All of us really enjoyed our evening here and have nothing but high praise for the staff and quality food. This isn't a fast, casual, cheap sit-down meal, but it's an experience worth the higher price. I look forward to coming back!

    In my opinion, Harvest is the nicest restaurant in the area, probably across all of Genesee &…read moreOrleans counties. It's located on 1st floor of an upscale boutique hotel in what used to be an old bank (they still display the vault). My parents have gone numerous times, but this was my first visit. The interior decor is beautiful & upscale, including comfy chairs, and tables are not packed together. The live piano music was a nice touch, though we all agreed a tad loud to support dinner conversation. From start to finish, everything was pleasing, beginning with cocktails, the Bison ribs app, root salad, & entrees. We didn't order dessert, but I saw some others getting delivered, and they looked delicious. Service was excellent. We'll be back!
