Food Scene

Best place close to the house where you can find an extensive menu of breakfast and lunch sandwiches made to order (and modify e.g. gluten-free, vegan, etc.), prepared foods, great coffee, tea, and smoothies and lovely casual ambiance! Go early, mid-afternoon, or the hour before closing for quickest service - or call ahead and pick up!

Fine dining in a casual setting located right down the street! If you feel like splurging, sit down for a Mediterranean-inspired three-course meal made by a talented chef trained at CIA. Not feeling flush with cash but want to treat yourself? Sit at the H Bar - enjoy the same high-quality eats at half the price. Beware: Meat portions can be huge - a porterhouse steak will feed a family of four for the week!

My favorite "neighborhood joint" where locally harvested and produced food and drink are featured throughout the creative, seasonal menu. Vegan, vegetarian, and paleo-friendly eats abound. Favorite drink: Bottom of the Falls - ginger and bourbon with a kick. Favorite Bite: Roasted Garlic Burger with Bacon with house fries - never disappoints! Great outdoor seating and beer garden, too.

It's the best farmer's market you'll find on the East Coast - if not the entire country! Eat, drink, and be merry while shopping for farm fresh produce, cheese, and wine as well as local crafts and other foods. Always busy but you'll find fewer crowds if you arrive close to opening or about an hour before closing. Note: EBT accepted!

Drinks & Nightlife

My favorite bartenders opened up a laid-back bar where you can actually have a conversation, work on your laptop, or make new friends while enjoying local spirits, wines, and small plates. Ever-changing cocktails of deliciousness made by extremely knowledgeable staff.

Arts & Culture

What city uses geology for a tourism slogan? Go find out why Ithaca is Gorges and of paleontological significance, enjoy beautiful art and architecture, changing exhibits, "dig" for fossils, and more! (Note: while kid-friendly, best for kids 6 years old+)
