Every time i visit Binghamton. I make sure to get a box of donuts. They make the best donuts in the area. It was a shame that i got there on Friday 5/10 at about 1:30pm and they had nonkore donuts. Had to come back on Saturday before 12pm to pick up a half dozen boston cream donuts. read more

Very nice little place we stopped at while visiting Binghamton NY. All sort of dining options but we went there for the donuts. Shame I didn't get to take any pictures, they were that good. Peanut butter and jelly, vanilla and maple dipped donuts were totally awesome. Coffee could be a little stronger but it still worked well with the donuts. Small place with a counter and few tables so it could feel cramped and I would limit the group size. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Well worth the visit and fairly priced for such specialty donuts which they make themselves. Definitely recommend the peanut butter and jelly donuts! read more

Basic breakfast fare: donuts, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, omelets. We had the veggie breakfast wraps made with home fries, salsa, onions, peppers, eggs, and cheese. Hot and gooey with decent seasoning. We had their pb&j donut and it was bursting with jelly and had a huge swath of peanut butter on top. Prices are reasonable. Our veggie wraps were under six dollars and to add meat was around a dollar more. It's a local spot with counter service, nothing fancy, but a nice morning stop. We went a couple times around 9:30-10 AM on weekdays, but in the early mornings and on weekends, it's much busier! read more

The donuts were delicious and tasted fresh. A member of our party has a severe allergy to coconut. I did ask that the donut with coconut be put in a separate bag, which she did. She then took that same tissue and started moving around donuts inside the box. We ended up purchasing another donut for that member of our party as the box was now unsafe for them. read more

The pancakes were golden brown, fluffy, and HUGE! My friend also enjoyed her bacon, eggs, and cheese. Get a half dozen donuts on the way out!

Their blueberry donut was the best donut of my life, and for this, Manni's gets five stars. How many donuts have I eaten in my life? Hundreds at least? Is it in the thousands? And this was the BEST. I also tried a very good sour cream donut and a maple donut, which had amazing frosting, but I didn't love the donut itself. The breakfast/diner food didn't look amazing to me, but I never tried it. Go for the donuts. read more

We sat for 50 minutes with no food and not once were our drinks refilled. When I asked about our food the woman brought most of it out in boxes (I only wanted one meal to-go). I tell her this and instead of listening and attempting to help me she proceeds to argue with me about what the bill says and hands me a bunch of boxes to eat out of (a pregnant mom and two kids at a two top table) . I ask her 4 separate times for plates and utensils so I can split the kids food (that came in a to-go container) and she never brings it. I tell her I'm missing part of my meal and shoves the bill in my face and says "where on here does it say you ordered that??" So I explain that the bacon comes with my meal (the Southside slammer) and only then she corrects it. I asked 4 different people for drinks, plates, and utensils and was ignored numerous times so my kids ate their eggs and French toast with their hands!! All three of us (I'm 5 months pregnant) are shaking from being so hungry and waiting so long and then I make it part way into my meal and THERES A HAIR IN IT. I about cried at this point and explain all this to her and her response is "we're busy." Not a sorry- nothing. I worked in the food industry for 10 years and not once treated a customer so poorly. Shame on you Manni's!! I'm angry and completely disgusted with your behavior and your food You should be ashamed of yourself and your actions. read more

After rave reviews, we thought to try this place. Everyone's meal was cooked wrong and there was no cream for the bland coffee. I can understand a couple of errors, but multiple ones on several plates is just bad cooking. The doughnuts look amazing, and we might return for those. For breakfast, try the diner down the street. read more

I came up for a Binghamton Mets game with my dad. We are staying at the Doubletree for the night. So Josh told me to try Mannis's for donuts in the morning. So I did, I got a dozen donuts with a small and large coffee. It came out about $11.50. The coffee was pretty good and the donuts were great. They were freshly made this morning. The honey glaze and the Bavarian were my favorite ones. My father in joyed the plan donuts. He called them delicious, he had two of them.

Blows other diners' breakfasts out of the water. I had a scrambled egg, home fries, toast and bacon. It was a really decent breakfast especially for only around $5. My roommate had the FLUFFIEST pancake and the home fries as well. The coffee is blah but the food is awesome, everything you could want in a breakfast. We got some of their homemade donuts to go - cinnamon sugar, chocolate frosted, a giant twisty thing, and apple (it has apple filling). The donuts are incredible! All together it cost $15.

The food is of typical diner quality, which is good enough for me. I would not say it is particularly cheap for a diner in Binghamton, but it is definitely very reasonably priced. Probably a bit cheaper than the average Binghamton diner. Chris's Diner downtown is cheaper, I would say. Good service. There are a lot of regulars who banter with the waitresses, which is kind of nice. Excellent donuts. Tax included in prices. There is a fair amount of choice on menu, but it is a little lacking. A little crowded; it would be nice if it were just a bit bigger. Nice ambiance - definitely has that "old-time, local joint that has been here forever" feeling about it. Overall, very good. read more

I've been coming here for years for their breakfast sandwiches and pancakes (both of which are amazing and VERY reasonably priced), but I'm embarrassed to admit I'd never tried their donuts until this month. Let me tell you - chain restaurant donuts will never appeal to me again. Their donuts are fresh and made every single morning. They have a huge variety of donut flavors and fillings and each one is fluffy and perfect. They also have several other breakfast pastries that I haven't tried yet but that look incredible. Service is very fast and friendly and it's always great to support a local family-owned and operated business. This has become my go-to weekend breakfast spot. read more

As luck would have it, it was Binghamton Restaurant Week and we attempted a walk in - first available was three+ hours later - but the hostess mentioned we could get the RW menu at the bar and two seats were calling. Lots of choices on the menu but friend and I ended up having the same meal! Cup of Cauliflower, potato and leek soup to start was yummy - very comforting, not too thick, good flavor - I could have stopped here! But fortunately did not! Main was spectacular! Salmon with everything bagel spices served over pearl couscous in a risotto style was inspired (honestly, I will try this at home)! I hope this is a menu regular because I will crave this for many more meals! Add a black Manhattan and this meal is a treat! (Took the dessert course to go - blueberry cronuts were better than chocolate but both likely suffered a wee bit from loss of ambiance and slight steaming that occurred on drive - good for sure but did not compare to the rest of the meal). Shout out to Tommy F for exceptional service - attentive but not intrusive. Ambiance is lovely (the lighting dimmed as we sat - hysterical) but we also scored the most comfortable seats in the house (I hate a high top stool with no back and no padding on the seat - those stools look nice but should go away).

She was good with bringing us hot waters with lemon as requested, but there was zero proactiveness to refill the hot water or any of the iced water. It was like us going out and trying to please the waitstaff. She did make a good suggestion for the lavender gimlet cocktail. Overall disappointing.

The staff I encountered were all very friendly, and menu prices somewhat reasonable. Since it was breakfast time, we went with a bagel (with cream cheese) and egg & cheese sandwich for food, and a mocha and cappuccino for drinks. All were of decent quality, so I'd rate them an overall 4.5 out of 5, and am happy to round up due to the nice interiors, friendly service, and cool, local vibes. The egg & cheese sandwich was prepared with a tasty bread that they said was made in-house.

It was around 5:30pm on a Saturday and luckily there were plenty of tables still available. We started with the Buffalo Brussels Sprouts which I absolutely loved! These are some of the best Brussels sprouts I've had at a restaurant. The buffalo sauce was light and not overpowering and even the blue cheese dipping sauce (which I'm usually not a fan of) was pretty mild and paired well with the Brussels sprouts. A great start! We then shared the Large Rigatoni a la Vodka and added Meatballs to it. The Large is definitely enough for 2 people. The Rigatoni was cooked well and the vodka sauce was well balanced with the cream, tomatoes, garlic, and cheese. It wasn't anything spectacular but it hit the spot! My only complaint was for ~$6, I expected the meatballs to be larger than they were. The Meatballs had good flavor but for such a large bowl of pasta, it barely makes a difference. And those 3 meatballs should be $1 each at most, in my opinion. The Side Caesar Salad was a great pair with the pasta and for ~$3, very reasonably priced. All in all, worth stopping by if you're in town!
