Big selection of freshly prepared, unique, top quality food. A tad pricey. You order and then pick-up your food at the counter,... which can get a bit busy. They used to offer self-serve ice water, which I prefer over high calorie/caffeinated drinks (and Ithought it was NY state law for restaurants to ptovide) but now you have to purchase water...humph. Adorable old time ice creamfountain atmosphere still makes this a great destination for lunch. Read more

Great place for snacks, ice cream & hearty bites in the heart of downtown Corning! Cozy atmosphere with plenty of seating plus... lots of outdoor seating options nearby. We grabbed soups to go and stocked up on snacks including the cheddar cheese spread forour road trip. Read more

A great place to take your family for ice cream! The old fashioned atmosphere is a nice touch and serves for nice family... memories! I go here when I visit the Corning Museum of Glass for a midday refresher! I highly recommend their milkshakes thatare extra creamy and full of flavor! The only downside is that they close pretty early sometimes. I suggest checking out theirstore hours for up to date information as I know business can have variable hours. Read more

Old style soda shop feel gives this place charm. We ate lunch outside and had pot roast potato leek soup, turkey avocado... sandwich, and the veggie layer wrap. All of the food was fresh and delicious! We stopped back for ice cream after shopping. Myfriend had the Almond Joy sundae and I had salty caramel truffle with hot fudge. Both were delicious.

I have been wanting to come here for a long time now and I finally got a chance. The food was delish and the staff were very... friendly. We were a bit late getting there..probably 20-25 minutes before they closed and were able to sit down and eat. People were still wandering in to order at closing time so the only thing I would say is I wish they were open just a bitlonger... Hopefully during the summer months they are open later. Either way, definitely worth checking out and grabbing aquick and delicious bite to eat! Read more

Delicious, quick sandwiches, ice cream, and lots of other treats! They sell local goods, teas, coffee beans, and the like as... well. The interior is also very interesting to look at, and must hold a lot of history. Everything has a loving, personaltouch. I got "to go" and ate at one of the many tables outside. The outdoor ambiance is lively and lovely. I got takeoutbecause I knew I'd never finish their generous portion sizes in one sitting! I ordered the Turkey Tost, and it was very tasty. Read more

Please follow us on Facebook at SNDTravels. Stopped downtown Corning NY for lunch. Nice downtown area. I love to find local... deli/bakery type places for lunch and this was a good find. I had soup and sandwich with turkey on ciabatta bread and house madeseafood chowder. The only negative comes here, no fresh brewed ice tea. Deli's have to have that available but I got hot teainstead. The sandwich was regular thin sliced deli meat of good amount and the bread was fresh and soft. Nothing unique butfresh and enjoyable. Upon ordering the chowder the young lady behind the counter mentioned she always has to get the bowlbecause it's so good. I took her suggestion and was glad I did. Probably the best seafood chowder I have ever had. Haddock,shrimp and ocean scallops in a well seasoned herb chowder with just the right thickness. The scallops we're plentiful and wholeand not your typical little bay scallops most use. Not a single piece of seafood was in the least bit tough. Every piece wasmelt in your mouth. I've almost turned around to go get more just writing this. I don't know if this is a constant menu item butI will be looking forward to coming back. Read more
