We came to Cocoon for a quick bite after visiting the shops in The Silk Mill. From what I…read moreunderstand, this building was the nursery for the silk worms back when the Silk Mill was an actual Silk Mill, thus the name "Cocoon". This area is rich with history, and to celebrate America's 250th anniversary, this site (right outside Cocoon) was chosen as one of the places in PA that would get a dedicated liberty bell replica. It is dedicated to the very young (mostly immigrant) women who worked in the Silk Mill and largely went unnoticed during their time. The staff at Cocoon was friendly. Their latte machine was out of service when we visited so we opted for smoothies. The smoothies were delicious, might be a little too sweet for some, but I enjoyed my Pina Colada flavor! I am not sure how "healthy" it was considering the vibrant flavor and sweetness, so if that is your goal I would suggest inquiring what goes into it to make sure it meets your needs. The Mac and cheese was exceptional, and my husband thoroughly enjoyed his grilled cheese. He enjoyed both so much that throughout the rest of our time in the area, he kept mentioning them. I, however, was disappointed with my selection. I ordered the Caesar sandwich on focaccia. The menu mentioned "crispy chicken" and "romaine" but my chicken was completely "naked" and bland and a bit rubbery, and the "romaine" definitely looked like iceberg lettuce to me, it was yellow rather than green. The Caesar flavor did not come through. A few bites in I was completely grossed out and only ate half, I wouldn't have even eaten that much if it wasn't for the intention of keeping me sustained until our next meal. I would recommend they take this item off the menu, if it wasn't for my husband and son's amazing meal, I would have a very bad impression of their food menu.

Got the plain glazed and a couple of the cream filled ones and they were still warm, like you could tell they hadn't been sitting around all day the way most places do it. The guy behind the counter (Ago) was super sweet, chatted with us for a minute and recommended some of his favorites. Coffee was solid too, nothing fancy but exactly what you want with a fresh donut. Place itself is small and kinda no frills but that's part of the charm honestly. It's the type of local spot you wish was in your own neighborhood. We ended up going back the next morning before we drove home lol. If your anywhere near Monticello just do yourself a favor and go. You wont regret it.

The child that was serving us did not tell us that the kitchen was closing at 7:30pm on a Thursday and we could not order any food past this time. We tried to order an additional round of food at 7:40 and were told we could not. Thankfully, at that time we asked how to order takeout beer and they told us we better hurriedly go up to the main counter since it was last call for takeout beer as well. When we went to order crowlers of the beer that was not available for takeout in cans, the "bartender" audibly sighed before telling us each one would take 5 minutes to complete. Again, beer was great, food was great - shoutout to the kitchen for the curry ketchup specifically - front of house is hurting your business.

The lady came over and she said she was gonna comp my meal. I told her she didn't have to do that because I did eat the spaghetti, or atleast my son ate the spaghetti, so she gave me twenty percent off or at least she said she did, on my receipt, It says fifteen percent off. $2.70 off. Yeah, I don't think we're coming back here. I should have took the full comp off the meal. I was trying to be fair but in the end, I feel it wasnt fair at all. There was a whole piece chicken that wasn't cuttable or chewable. I posted on my facebook and people replies that the food wasn't so good here. I'm actually shocked at my own experience. Because usually when a parking lot is always packed. It's a good sign.

We were so lucky to have to pick up our kitchen in Honesdale because we stumbled upon this very…read morequaint restaurant / patisserie (pastry shop) in Honesdale downtown. One orders at the counter, however, the dishes are brought to the table. The cashier was also the server, but I thought perhaps she was also the co-owner. [I didn't ask her for the story, but when I asked about the Vivian Gray Lotus and Rose soap in the bathroom, she said she had bought like a case of the German soap when she saw it on sale. (I'm super jealous because the soap is absolutely divine smelling - and rose is one of my favorite scents.)] Hubby started out with the French onion soup. He was in love. The good thing was I didn't taste any alcohol in it (which is good because not only are we teetotalers, but we can't cook with alcohol, either), but I thought the broth was fairly one dimensional, not too far above just bouillon. The onions were not sufficiently caramelized, either, in my opinion. (I make good French onion soup - and so I expect a chef's version of it to be better than mine.) Hubby liked that the cheese was wrapped around the piece of baguette floating on top. He then had the [Norwegian?] salmon on a bagel, which had quite a few capers on top. Again, he was in love - salmon, bagel, cream cheese, what's not to? I, too, thought it was a wonderful dish. I had ratatouille, which contained kalamatas. I've never heard of olives in ratatouille, but it was quite delicious as well, albeit a bit oily. The presentation was very nice as well. The eggplant was so tender it was almost melted, and the tomatoes, onions, etc. were nicely seasoned and was very enjoyable. I used baguette pieces to eat most of the dish up with. The dish is piping hot and, as the server warned, there may or may not be pits in the olives (there were none in mine), so beware! There is no tap water served and, according to a local, this is a good thing since, again according to her, Honesdale has the US's 4th worst tapwater in the nation. So we chose San Pellegrino Aranciata Rossa (hubby) and a nice Sarasota sparkling (which may or may not be bottled right there in Pennsylvania). For dessert (to go; we were too full!), hubby got a delightful almond cake of some sort; I did not have the presence of mind to snap a photo of it before he devoured it (after we got home). He was generous, however, and gave me a bite - and it was so delightful and creamy and almondy. A few days later, I finally ate the cranberry muffin - and absolute perfection. Moist, wonderful, fresh cranberries. And despite the fresh cranberries, especially those on top, not one bitter one to be found. What's wonderful, too, are the prices. So, so, so, and did I say so reasonable?!?!? A delightful, charming place and, God willing, we will be able to go more frequently.
