By the time we left the cafe was packed, we later learned classes let out at either 1:30pm or 3pm which accounted for the increased traffic. You order from the counter, receive a number, and wait for someone to bring your food, we did not wait long for our food to arrive and the students working front of the house asked if we needed anything and quickly attended to our needs. The fired artichoke hearts were the standout. Perfectly breaded and fried, they were spectacular without the dipping sauce! Don't get me wrong the sauce was great and added layers of taste but you didn't need it to make the dish better. The street Corn Salad was generous but it a salad. It's not that I wouldn't recommend but keep your expectations low!

I really can't say enough about Cranberry's at Tiley Hall. Being directly across from Piersaull…read morehouse, I have had the pleasure to dine here many times. The food is always fantastic, as is the friendly service. The most important element of this restaurant to me is that they provide classy, upscale dining without the upscale pretension and snobbery that usually accompanies food of this quality. The menu does change frequently, and I enjoy the variety with each visit. They have a great selection of local beer and wine, and also have a full liquor license if you're in the mood for a cocktail. Cranberry's also hosts special events like wine tastings and teas, and the menus are always inventive and delicious (scones to die for!). The events are fun to attend, and we always meet new friendly Hyde Park locals or folks just passing through. The interior is always seasonly decorated and feels more like a comfortable country house than a hoity-toity place where you're afraid to break something. Joann our usual server, is sweet, funny, and attentive. She certainly puts the patrons at ease! Please note: Cranberry's hours and days of operation fluctuate depending on the season, so call ahead or check their facebook page to be sure they are open - you don't want to miss out! Cranberry's at Tilley Hall is a definite must if you are in the Hyde Park, NY area!

The frosting and cake body complement each others' flavors very well. 'Luscious frosting! And the cake's texture would not make anyone suspect it's gluten-free. I'm also a huge fan of their gluten free lemon bars. Like the carrot cake, they are not too sweet. 'Not too sour, either. The whipped cream on top and ratio of custard to crust are appropriately balanced so that none of those elements overpowers the others (in flavor or texture). In addition to their products being delicious, everything is so fresh. I'm looking forward to trying some of their breakfast items from the grill soon. Also, because their staff is friendly and helpful, buying things there is a really pleasant experience. Such a great place to stop into for breakfast and/or a sweet treat!

There is one particular roll called a Bolillo that we've looked for in several Mexican neighborhoods; in the northeast. It looks like a small French bread; very popular in Mexico City. Spoke to the owner and it was a little late in the day for them. Most are sold to restaurants. I have to be back in Poughkeepsie Monday. She's going to save a half a dozen for me. The place looks very clean and well organized. I noticed that they had off to the side, the tongs and pizza serving trays. Go to any bakery in CDMX, and you'll see the same thing. It kind of gives the place authenticity. The weekend has passed and we're here for the Bolillos. The owner had a 1/2 dz. of them aside for us. 6 for $6. very reasonable. Can't wait to turn one into a torta, Mexican sandwich. : )

One of the…read morethings I love most is the large menu selection--there's something for everyone, whether you're stopping by for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just coffee and dessert. My absolute favorite is the Turkish coffee. It's rich, aromatic, and one of the best I've had. It's a must-try if you're visiting for the first time. The restaurant is small, but it's very clean and has a cozy atmosphere. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. A couple of things to keep in mind: they are closed on Mondays, there isn't a dedicated parking lot, and it can get quite crowded on weekends. If you want a more relaxed experience, try visiting during the week. Overall, it's a wonderful spot with delicious food, authentic flavors, and excellent coffee. We'll definitely keep coming back! Highly recommended.

States gluten-free on the menu, however I'm not sure how staff is trained. Ordered a savory crepe and beef and potato stew. Both were delicious however be careful about cross contamination if you're highly sensitive to gluten/wheat. We ordered gluten free and the stew came out with a roll when questioned the server said "oh we need to get better at that" they did remove it from the plate with a napkin. They did not change out the platter which the bowl arrived on just left crumbs on top. We did our best with the napkins and covered the space that the bread touched in hopes that we wouldn't experience ill effects. Unsure if they clean the grill/cooking area between batches as the gluten-free crepe did cause some issues immediately after eating. 3. Overall, the food was tasty, reasonably priced especially for gluten-free food. If we get a chance to go back we may ask the staff for better technique if possible especially since we have an actual wheat allergy.
