    Quaint, energetic atmosphere. Delicious coffee. Will be back to try the food! LOVE that they donate a portion of their proceeds to charity.

    Super cute cafe - clean and cheerful. We had smoothies and they were great. A fun stop on your bike ride on the rail trail.

The parking was easy, with plenty of spots in the lot shared with Ace, and there was plenty of seating, both inside and outside. The menu had plenty of sweet and savory options, and our group went with the Manhattan chowder, Italian mix sandwich, fish and chips, and a cheese and artichoke quesadilla, as well as some lattes. The employee taking our order did great, as was the one that brought everything to our outdoor table, and the one that came to clean everything off the table. They had no problem with us finishing the coffees after they locked up. The batter on my fish was crunchy with the fish perfectly cooked. The same was true for the French fries. Everyone else was happy with their order as well. It's nice to know that this option is available, and we'll have to come back to try the breakfast fare.

We arrived after lunchtime so we avoided the rush. You order at the counter and take a seat. Staff will bring your order to the table when it's ready. Our order was ready in about 10-minutes. Nancy and my mom ordered the cup of New England Clam Chowder ($6) and I decided on one of their specials - the Chicken Florentine Quesadilla ($14) and a medium coffee. They had 6 different coffee varieties to choose from including decaf but there were only two regular options remaining and were running low. The chowder was hot and delicious. My quesadilla was also hot and had great flavor. The only thing they could have done better is grill the tortilla shell a little longer so that it's more crispy. It was more on the limp side, but still good regardless. The staff bake up a ton of muffins and other yummy looking baked goods daily. Although we didn't try any today I would definitely return to try them next time I'm back in the area. All-in-all, a great spot to stop for breakfast, lunch, or quick snack.

    An update from my previous review, because this popped up on a brunch search. Hot tip: Indian…read moreLadder no longer has breakfast/brunch. They had a kitchen fire a few years ago, shut down for a year, and completely rebuilt the store/café. It's beautiful, and you can get great baked goods including their famous cider donuts and a variety of coffee/beverages at the counter and sit comfortably in the cafe. They greatly reduced the kitchen space and don't make full meals in house. The cidery/brewery downstairs is still a great place to hang out but you'll only be able to get a few mostly app type food items. The main place to eat is now up the hill where Defazios runs a pizza counter. There's also a beautiful catering space overlooking the Helderbergs where we held a 40th anniversary party. Defazios provides full catering there, from their wonderful main restaurant menu. Indian Ladder provides beverage service, offering theirs and other NYS beer, wine and cider.

    I used to visit here annually when I lived in NY. I have very fond memories of Indian Ladder Farms…read moreas a child and it was a very special treat to sample their warm apple cider and devour a bag of fresh cider donuts. Many years later they have so much more to offer - several varieties of fresh coffee, fresh warm pies, a huge selection of jarred items such as honey, pickles, olives, jams and jellies, a variety of craft beers and ciders made on site, Danishes, cookies, and other pastries for purchase, clothing and other merchandise, a large produce area with some of the most beautiful fruits and veggies available, a separate building dedicated to just apple varieties, and a large event hall at the back end of the property near their brewery. This place is pretty awesome. Something else to note is that when we arrived, they were setting up for Oktoberfest, so if you don't have any plans for Oktoberfest next year this would be an exceptional venue to share in the celebration. I have to say that it is a little pricy, much more expensive than I remember but we are living in different times now. We purchased one of the warm peach pies and it was exquisite. I even had a piece with my breakfast the next morning, I couldn't get enough, but it was about $25. Three donuts and two coffees cost us $17.55, which is a bit overkill but we wanted to enjoy in the moment. We also purchased a jar of peach jelly Togo and that was about $8. This is a great place to take a friend or date in the afternoon or for an event. There are several walking trails available and the property is gorgeous as you have a great view of the Catskill Mountains. There are several places where you can just sit around and chat for a while and they have their own pub and eatery under the main store. Additionally, there are some livestock chilling on the property and a small petting area where the kids can feed goats, chickens and any other creature wandering around. All-in-all, we had a great time while visiting and would definitely come back next time we are in NY.

I'm not a beer snob so I appreciate them having some classic on tap like Coors and Guinness. There other beer selections are good too. Great watermelon margarita. The food was the best part. I had the ribs which were definitely home made and very tasty. Carolina vs Memphis bbq sauce. Cornbread is superb a little spicy for me with the jalapeño in it.

Definitely a locals place. We waited for about 10 minutes while watching the servers and staff walk by us, I understood as they were busy. Maybe short staffed? After standing at the entrance for 10 minutes, next to the wait to be seated sign, we realized you have to walk up to the register to actually get a seat. I spoke to the girl behind the register and she said she would clear an empty table for us. We waited another 10 minutes at the entrance and the table remained dirty, so I again went to someone and asked for an empty table. There were now at least 3 clean ones around the perimeter. A waitress told us to sit at another cleaned one. We sat and waited another 10 minutes to be acknowledged and get water. We then waited another 10 minutes to be told they didn't have the beer listed on the board that my partner asked for. We would have been better off getting our own beverage at the bar that was just across from us. Then again waited a while to get a second choice. The food was served in a timely manner and was better than I expected after our initial experience. I got a salad I liked, it was super fresh and the chicken was moist and flavorful. My partner liked his burger and fries, it was cooked as ordered and flavorful. The menu is pretty big and looks like there is something for everyone. By this time it had slowed down a bit so we got the check in a timely manner. We sat to casually relax and finish our beer after cashing out on the digital platform (toast). We left and got into the car. When backing out, the waitress was at our window knocking and telling us we didn't pay our bill. Never have I ever experienced this and never would we ever do such a thing. My partner explained no, we paid using the digital platform and that we would never do that and she insisted we did not. After pulling up our digital PAID receipt to show her did she casually say, "Oh, ok." And walk away. Honestly, it was not the way we wanted to end our experience there. Not sure I'll return here especially with so many other places to go that we've had good experiences at. It's unfortunate because I wanted to love this place.

The kids loved walking the trail to see the goats, sheep, turkeys and chickens. Defazios has its own little special place in the back, it's like hidden in between two shipping containers and a silo. Someone was having a party back there taking up most of the picnic tables. Wish there was a little play set or big jenga, big checkers, corn hole, something to entertain the kids but nothing but some good old grass. We ended up walking back to the front going into the newly renovated store and enjoying famously known some cider donuts. As good as ever! The restaurant was busy inside had tables with shade outside so that's where we decided to sit. Drinks were good, nice refreshing ipa on a hot day. The food was basic and no fryer so no French fries or anything. The kids got bored couldn't really stay more than an hour or so. Deviled eggs were basic. Jalapeño poppers were okay, wish they didn't put the paper under them because after a few minutes the paper got stuck and every bite you had to make sure there wasn't paper in. Nice spot to stop in for a quick snack or drink, maybe some farm fresh produce.
