I doubt I would have…read morefound it otherwise, as it's just outside of the main downtown area, on College Street, about 3 blocks up from Water Street, which is just far enough from 'city center' that you wouldn't just see it if you were driving or walking around. But once you go looking for it, it's easy to find, and has a really welcoming exterior, with cheery sign and lots of flowers. I arrived around 12:30 pm and the place was about half full. I had in mind to sit outside to eat, but the waitress, Melanie, let me know the bees were pretty bad, so I stayed inside. I ordered an egg salad sandwich on GF bread, which came with lettuce and tomato, and a side of chips. I didn't want the chips so upgraded to a side salad. The egg salad was nice - good amount of mayo, enough salt, nothing weird added, and a good portion. The GF bread was really good - a nice surprise. Lettuce and tomato were both fresh. Side salad was nothing too special, though the balsamic dressing was good (served on the side). Service was great - Melanie was friendly and attentive, accommodating and bubbly. I would definitely recommend and will be back next time I'm in town.

Their products are great but it is limited. For example, they only had packaged lettuce not fresh lettuce. I wish they served fresh orange, grapefruit, etc. juices but they don't. They need more products which the community would buy. But overall, I much needed market in an underserved area.

Is it more expensive than every other place on town? Yes. Is it worth it? 1,000%. I literally said the words "I think this is the best meal I've ever had in Cortland". Coming from a food city (Miami), this place didn't shock me with their prices, as I typically spend the same amount on a lunch down there, but I really saw the value here. Local, organic foods, clean place, nice atmosphere, fast casual. Love it. Let's get to the food, shall we? We had a party of three that all showed up at separate times and all actually ordered the same thing: turkey pesto panini. It was amazing. The bread was so good, must have been local and it was so amazing. The combo of the veggies, pesto, cheese and turkey was perfection. My mom got it as a wrap with the cranberry slaw. Her fiancé got it as a panini with the potato salad, and I got it with the lentil curry soup. All sides were amazing, but I think the soup was by far the best. So. Yummy. I seriously love this place and can't wait to go back.

Specialties would be their jams and pickles- I have fun just looking at the names of them. Their candy selection is also good, especially if you like gummy candies. I can also find some unique sodas such as white birch beer, sassafras soda, and cheerwine to name a few. There is a little gift shop/religious books section near the front, which can be nice to browse through. Saunders sells outdoor furniture and decor, and there is a furniture store proper attached. I've been especially tempted by their swiveling and gliding rocking chairs. I've had some good food at the cafe, the Reuben in particular being super tasty. You do have to enter the cafe through the store and park your cart before you go into the cafe. You order at the counter and then the staff gives you a number and will bring you your meal. Car parking is ample here but there are speed bumps, so watch it! I haven't noticed any bike racks, so cyclists likely need to get creative. The store is closed on Sundays and can be busy with campers during the summer months.

Menu is exactly like what my Gramma used to make, and what you will find in many traditional diners. We had a party of 8 so we made reservations in advance. We arrived at 6, and were surprised at 6:15 when we asked to take our order from our very friendly and solicitous waitress that "the cook hasn't come down yet- I'll ring her again." The bloody Marys were good- apparently the bartender makes his own mix. Our soup and salads did not come out until 6:45. I don't think I've ever waited 45 minutes for soup before. Unfortunately the young children were really struggling with the wait but fortunately the restaurant was empty so we literally did a push up contest to keep the kids from going bonkers while we waited. The salad came out in a big bowl family style and was very good. Unfortunately some of the dressings came out 10 minutes later when were done our salad. The soups were excellent- the high point of the meal. I understand she makes them all from scratch on site Dinner finally came out at 7:30. That's right, we waited 1 1/2 hours for dinner in an empty restaurant. Sigh. I got the pork loin- it was respectable, served with roasted potatoes ( a little hard) a decent gravy and Romano beans. My son was disappointed with his spaghetti and meatballs- apparently the sauce was watery. My husband was very disappointed with his rib-eye. He ordered it Medium, but it was grey almost all the way through and had no sear on it. Apparently it tasted like vinegar. I understand some cooks finish steak with vinegar, but I think that should be disclosed on the menu. My sister was Blissfully happy with her dinner and called it her favorite place in town. My recommendation? Have a bloody Mary, a big bowl of any of the wonderful soups and a salad. Leave plenty of time for your meal.
