The Cottage Hotel - Mendon, NY…read more The Cottage Hotel isn't just a bar & grill--it's a Mendon institution. This is hands down my favorite place to go when I want great food, cold drinks, and a room full of people actually having a good time. Thanksgiving Eve at The Cottage is next-level. The place has that perfect buzz--packed but comfortable, energetic without being chaotic--and when the band SQUID takes the stage, it turns into one of the best nights out of the year. They know exactly how to read the room and keep it moving, whether you're there to dance, sing along, or just enjoy the music with a drink in hand. The bar staff is fast, friendly, and clearly knows their regulars. Drinks are poured right, the food hits the spot every time, and there's zero pretension--just a warm, welcoming vibe that keeps people coming back. You'll see longtime locals, groups of friends, and people who came in "just for one" and somehow stayed all night. If you're looking for a place that feels authentic, fun, and reliably awesome--especially on Thanksgiving Eve--The Cottage Hotel is the place to be. Mendon doesn't get better than this.

I met my family here for birthday dinner and to watch a Thursday night Bills game as they were…read moreadvertising the game and an event that night. The service was inattentive and food was mediocre. Everything seemed previously frozen. When the Buffalo Bills came on at 8pm, all the tables tried to get closer to their small outdoor bar with a few extra high tops. All the waitresses left and those of us left outside were asked to go inside to order. The outdoor bartender was also inattentive and planned to leave shortly after the game started. I would suggest not advertising yourself as a sports bar or having Bills events if you're not going to staff your outdoor area on a nice summer night

My parents and I had dinner here one afternoon and we had a decent experience. The staff was nice…read moreand pleasant as soon as we walked in, and sat us immediately. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice, with some soft music playing, and sports on the TV. Our server was over within minutes to take our drink orders. We ordered the mozzarella half moons and an order of chicken wings as appetizers. The mozzarella half moons were not too great. They did not have much flavor and they tasted kind of old. But, the chicken wings were the star of the show. We got the Cajun gold sauce and wow... it was so good. There wasn't much of a Cajun flavor to it, but it had this tangy sweet flavor to it that made your mouth salivate. And the chicken wings themselves were fried to the perfect crisp. I ordered the turtle plate with cheeseburgers, french fries, and mac salad. The cheeseburgers and French fries were cooked well. The mac salad was lacking flavor and was just kind of watery. The meat hot sauce atop the plate had too much of a cinnamon flavor for me, that kind of ruined the whole plate for me. My dad order their special fried oyster po boy, which he said wasn't too great. He said the fried oyster were kind of cold, and they were put on a plain roll. My mom got a burger, which she said was a fine burger. I definitely will be back in the future at least for those wings, and to probably try some of their other food.

Great location for a restaurant. You do have to walk through another restaurant to get to it…read morethough, which was weird. Recommend a reservation as it was packed for a weekday. Drinks were good and food was delicious. Service was a bit lacking though. We spent a long time without our waitress so we finished our apps before we got to order our mains. We also finished our meal before being able to order another round of drinks. Tiramisu was okay, chocolate sauce on it ruined it a little. But the salmon and shrimp lobster roll were great! I also think they could do something about the flies, like some kind of attractor or table fan to help against them but I know it's hard with it being a partially open space. They also had live music which was nice!!

The service was very good. There were multiple tv's near and around the bar. It had a nice bar and had plenty of seating. We ordered a small pizza and it was more like a medium. We couldn't eat it all. The pizza was pretty good. It wasn't outstanding but good. We each ordered drinks and they were good. There are not many places in the area to eat so this gets a good recommendation from us. Check it out.

We drove over an hour to try them out. I don't know if it was an off night or what, but service…read morewas very slow, everything was extremely salty, my beef tips were extremely tough with no flavor other than salty, an older waitress and older bartender spent over 20 minutes gossiping about some Drew and another waitress while beers sat empty, not very welcoming feeling or comfortable listening to ranting, and everything was over priced. There was a young thin bartender girl that was very friendly and actually waited on people, but my cherry lime smash drink from her being off was either her being new with no one to help her or the bar's recipe being pretty bad. The beer selection, ranch, and fries were good. The moose track burger was okay, but bland and salty. We're in no rush to drive over an hour again and waste over an hour sitting and spend around $100 again on such a so so underwhelming experience. I'm sure it's better just for drinking with different staff.

Awesome, unique place. While staying in PEC at a bachelorette weekend, bride wanted somewhere she…read morecould dance- she was recommended this spot. Really enjoyed the live music and atmosphere.

I don't care how good they are, the service was awful…read more I'm seated and she comes over right away to give me a menu. She comes back maybe three minutes later, and I wasn't ready to order yet. So she leaves. They were busy, but they only had two servers covering the entire restaurant I was ready to order just a couple of minutes later, and my server never came back. I waited, I even tried to wave down the other server. She just looked at me and walked away. She didn't even bother to tell my server that I was ready to order or that I needed something. Not only that, but the prices were pretty ridiculous. $18 for a simple Cuban sandwich? Not including something to drink? I found a little place just up the road a few miles in Geneva you could get a full dinner for a little over 10 bucks. Thanks anyway, buh--bye.

I ordered a flight of beer and a Lamb Smash burger. They have a large selection of beer on tap but unfortunately they were out of the one I was most excited to try. I enjoyed all the beers that I tried. With the variety they offer, you're bound to find something you like. I was impressed by their Lamb Smash burger. It was cooked and seasoned well and I really liked their yogurt feta. The cucumber provided a refreshing crunch to the burger. I was very tempted to order another. Service was quick and friendly. The location seems pretty cool. It looked like they had a lot of cornhole sets so I can imagine it gets pretty busy when the weather's nice. If I lived around the area I would come back.
