This family-owned establishment is a great place to grab a meal, drinks, snacks, and/ or groceries in Penn Yan, NY. Located off Lake Keuka, The Olney Place offers a good variety of sandwiches and other food items as well as nice craft beers in their tap room. I went here with my family and friends for lunch. My friends told us about The Olney as a great place for sandwiches and craft brews, and I was totally down for it. The Olney is a big shop with indoor and patio seating areas overlooking Lake Keuka. It has counter service. We ordered three sandwiches. One was the Mustang, the other one was Scotsman, and the third one, I can't remember. The Mustang had ham, salami, provolone, lettuce, tomatoes, mayo, oil, and vinegar on an 8" bread roll. The Scotsman originally came with tuna salad, banana peppers, bacon, and tomatoes in a wrap, but I asked for chicken salad and on an 8" roll instead. The sandwiches were flavorful and delicious. Mine hit the spot. I also had a Hawaiian Punch Sour beer from Rising Storm brewery, and it was refreshingly delicious. I had a good experience and would go back here. Check out this establishment when in the Penn Yan area of upstate NY.

If you ever go here you have to get the delicious home made cinnamon rolls in the morning when they first open. Also this place has good sandwiches would recommend the Rachel which is so good. And this place has an insane view of keuka lake when you're eating your food. Also this place is a half grocery store which you can shop and eat. Also this place has a very cool bar looking over the lake. And if you go outside by the picnic tables there is couple games including cornhole.

Beautiful garden around the perimeter

The perfect place to stop, rest, regroup, grab lunch and delicious beer. Wonderful atmosphere and staff. My friend and I had the build your own sandwiches and each grabbed a beer from the taproom the counter that faces the lake is a comfortable and scene place to enjoy the view while you refuel your body and soul.

Friendly staff, good food, lots of other selections. Sort of a combo of country type store, bodega (for my NYC peeps) and a diner. My bunless burger was good. Although the menu said salads were available instead of chips, they really meant coleslaw or potato salad. Surprisingly, not a lot of outdoor tables set up and they were all taken when we arrived. But the inside seating offered AC and large picture windows looking out on the lake.

Burger + Fentiman's cola

If you're day tripping in the Finger Lakes area, this is a must stop for eats, snacks, and a view. It overlooks Keuka Lake. There's a back room with counter seating along the window and a community table. Outside, there were a few picnic tables, and a porch. Ideal during the summer months indeed. You order at the counter - it's setup like a market with a deli station. There are several sandwich options, plus some grill items too. I went for the burger - "the big crack," which I thoroughly enjoyed. Classic style with 1000 Island dressing, a thin patty, topped with cheese, and lettuce, paired with a side of chips. I also got a soda - Fentiman's Curiosity Cola - since it was an unfamiliar brand. Worth a try! They also have a taproom if you're up for drinking some craft brews with your meal.

Tap room

Great spot for a quick bite. When you first walk in, it has a convenience-store vibe (also selling wine/beer), but it is so much more! There's a large selection of sandwiches (and a make-your-own option). The food is really fresh and delicious. I ordered the "Rachel" and was really happy with it. There's a large seating area in the back that is also a tap room. It serves various beers and ciders. The room overlooks Keuka Lake. There is also an outdoor patio. Overall, it's a simple place, but it has great food and drinks. What else could you need?

Country Cuban with tato salad
Marissa N.

Busy, busy, busy call ahead for larger groups and they'll have it under control. I tried the Country Cuban and it was alright, I've never had one with relish instead of pickles. The Rachel was tasty but the bread was sogged out and barely toasted/grilled. There's an upcharge for the homemade sides we ordered potato salad and slaw they were tasty but differed in the amount served. The view is lovely and their grocery items are very inviting.

Rachel - turkey reuben

I loved this little place in Penn Yan. It's on East Lake Road with a nice view of the water from the dining area in the back. Outdoor seating is also available. I enjoyed a Turkey Reuben with a side of slaw. The shop has a variety of items and grocery/quick mart type offerings. If you're on a day trip through the area or on a wine tour definitely consider coming to this place. They offer very good food!

Nom nom nom, hot chocolate chunk cookies? Yes, please! Wilford Brimley would risk his feet for the sticky buns. I'll be back.

Locals told us: Get great sandwiches from the deli in this convenience store!…read more Shortstop Deli has been "hidden" in a convenience store in the "lower northside" of Ithaca NY since 1978! Great design-your-own sandwiches, and if you like, friendly suggestions from the staff. It was our first time in, and their helpful hints quickly showed they have every filling (savory seitan!) and every topping and a nice variety of breads. We got their "Italian mix" of cold cuts, which included Genoa salami, sweet tender thin-sliced baked ham, and meats that were either mortadella and capicola or at least richly-flavored alternates, provalone cheese, tomato, onions, a light amount of lettuce brightened with a splash of Italian dressing and a dash of fresh salad-oil, and a sprinkling of what we call "hots": lightly-spicy pickled peppers. All this on fresh French bread, which could have been with sesame, or could have been ciabatta or whole-wheat French or several others. We added a light scatter of our own crushed pistachios, which are in some mortadellas. Nobody said this couldn't be fun :-) The sandwich was a heavenly armful, shared amongst us on one of our woodsy picnics. Extra kudos again to their cheerful helpful (patient) staff!

Friendly fast fresh! I'll go again when I'm in town! Keep Ithaca fun!…read moreLove the fact that I could get a small-ish sub.
