    Burnt eggs on a cold bun

    It's great that there's a restaurant inside the AKG, as you can really work up an appetite after walking around for a few hours. The atrium is nice, and the service was fast. However the food was not great. The bagel came slathered with a disgusting amount of butter. The breakfast sandwich was made with probably 5 eggs, way too large to take a bite comfortably, the eggs were burnt and greasy, and the roll was cold/not toasted. There aren't many options for kids. The lions mane (mushroom) "nuggets" are on the kids menu but I can't imagine my kids (or most kids) wanting to eat those. There are a lot of healthy and gourmet menu choices but I wouldn't say there is something for everyone.

    a few bits already gone from the 2nd half of my wrap

    My general opinion of in-house restaurants is that they are over-priced and under-good, but our lunch at Cornelia disproved me big time! Every person with whom we had contact was enthusiastic, friendly, informative. If you sit at a table inside the actual restaurant, someone will come and take your order and deliver it to you. If you sit at one of their tables in the town square, you need to place your order at the counter, but someone still delivers your order to you. There is no price difference. We ordered at the counter b/c we wanted to enjoy the brightness of the town square. Companion enjoyed the roasted beet grain salad, while I enjoyed the turkey salad wrap, which came with a generous side of fresh fruit (alternative sides were also available). see photos. The turkey salad included a good-size, but not overwhelming, helping of fresh greens along with tasty chunks of turkey, in a wrap that was supersized. I only ate 1/2, took the rest home in a compostable takeout container which they graciously provided. The only negative was that the honeydew was a bit under-ripe and so very crunchy. Entrance to the town square and to Cornelia is always free, so this cafe can be enjoyed without paying museum admission, a bonus. They also serve dinner a few evenings a week, and Sunday brunch. There are few dining spots in that neighborhood; how lovely to have this one!

    Seven Hearts Coffee in Buffalo was exactly the cozy little gem I was hoping to find…read more Nestled inside a charming old building right next to a bookstore (which you absolutely should pop into while you're there), this spot had the perfect vibe from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and effortlessly cool, the kind of place that makes you want to linger for hours with a good book and a great cup of coffee. My fiancé and I each ordered one of their specialty coffees along with bagels, and everything was fantastic. After a less than stellar experience at Tim Hortons earlier in the trip, Seven Hearts completely redeemed our coffee expectations. It was exactly the aesthetic and experience I had been searching for. What really made it special was how quickly it felt like a place I could make part of my routine. If I lived in Buffalo, this would absolutely be my go to coffee shop. Before leaving, I picked up a couple of honey sticks and a bottle of their house made lavender syrup to bring home. Now I get to enjoy a little taste of Seven Hearts, and Buffalo, with my morning coffee for a few more days.

    Stopped in here to kill time before an appointment after seeing the high ratings, but unfortunately…read morethe experience didn't live up to them. Most of my rating is based on the service. Upon entering, no one greeted me, and I felt rushed while looking over the menu. When I asked questions, it felt like I was inconveniencing the employee rather than being helped. I ordered the blueberry lemon bar matcha and hoped the drink would redeem the experience, but it was disappointing. The flavor combination didn't work well in a matcha drink, and it left a strange aftertaste/coating in my mouth. I also specifically requested no dairy (asked for oat milk) yet it still came topped with cold foam, which upset my stomach. It looked cute, but for nearly $9, it wasn't enjoyable. I had originally planned to order food as well, but the overall atmosphere and interaction felt so uncomfortable that I decided to just take my drink and leave.
