    We were walking back to our hotel after dinner and heard music coming from this bar/restaurant. My wife and I stopped by for a drink and to listen to the trio. We can't remember the bands name, but they were great. Unfortunately, we got there with only about 30 minutes of music left in there set. We will remember this next time and get there earlier.

    Based on Yelp reviews, we stopped off for a late dinner. Easy to find, thanks to the gps, we found parking right in front. The place was roomy, and we sat ourselves at a table. We waited quite a bit, but it appeared there was only one waitress running around. When she had a chance, she stopped by, wiped our table and gave us the menus. We quickly agreed on a pizza and sodas and placed this order. Took a look around and saw about three other couples enjoying their meal. Our pizza was delivered piping hot. Tasted real good. We hope to try their spiedies or spaghetti on our way back. For a comfortable and affordable meal, be sure to stop by. I know I will.

    Calzone with meatballs and mushrooms.  Fresh cheese is included as part of the yummy!!

    I stopped I. Owego on a business trip. This is a great small town with a proud history I ordered a Calzone to go. Then I realized there was an attached bar. I had a pint and spoke to to a few people from the local community. What a treat. Not only good food but great bartenders and staff who welcome you.

    Great service.

    Do they deliver ? Will be staying red roof inn few weeks?

    They actually started delivery recently. Call the restaurant for delivery radius.

We had a great table on the water. It was a busy Saturday afternoon, and the place was packed. The staff did a great job managing the work flow. Clearly an experienced group of people. We ordered the top item on the menu, the cheese steak sandwich, added some peppers. It was quite good. The fries here are and definitely get an order. The problem happened when I ordered the house burger- another top menu item. I asked for "medium rare", which should have a hot center but some pink left. What I got was well done- and dry as the desert. I had to drink a lot of water to wash it down. Normally-if this was a steak, I'd send it back. But- it was a burger and the kitchen was already jammed, so I choked it down- I was really hungry. I would not order the steak here- pretty sure a 6 ounce filet would end badly. Other dishes being served at other tables looked great. I would come back here. It's a great place. Thus- 5 stars.

Very unique cocktails! My first visit, I tried the ruby slipper, braulio sour, and the mango lassi. The mango lassi is incredible! It is my favorite drink at Argos! The ruby slipper and braulio sour were also quite tasty but I preferred the ruby slipper a tad more. My second visit, I tried the grapefruit soda (not artificial tasting at all), the Shark Juice (tasted a bit too much like cologne, wasn't a fan), and the Gigi (couldn't taste the hojicha, liked the concept more than the execution). I would get the Gigi again, but would pass on the Shark Juice. Sitting inside, I enjoyed the quieter and calmer atmosphere as well as the soft lighting. The interior decor is very cosy and slightly eclectic. I came with a friend on a weekday evening and it was pretty empty which was nice. The outdoor patio space is very nice- I like the lanterns on the walls and the whole space is quite charming. I left with a few mosquito bites though. Overall, I would recommend Argos Inn!

The menu itself is short and focused, while the interior of the restaurant features wallpaper with anthropomorphic animals, and large windows. I opted for the Burger, and my wife the Salmon. We also ordered the grilled dates and collard greens. I also decided on a Ginger Beer. They serve Goslings (since 1806), with all 47 grams of sugar, over ice and a lime. Highly recommended on the ginger beer flavor scale. The Burger came with a massive amount of their duck-fat fried fries, certainly more potato than burger. I also liked the burger with the added bacon. But my wife's Salmon was even tastier. It featured a nice hunk of fish, skin-on, crispy, and not some half-or-quarter fillet that other places might serve. Plus, it comes over a bed of green peas and canneli beans and green asparagus sauce on the bottom, and a small bed of frisée on top. The combination with the lemon cream leads to very satisfying bites. The grilled dates wrapped in bacon, with goat cheese, Marcona almonds, and honey were presented as a drumstick. The collard greens were nice, though on the saltier side. Seating here can be had inside or out. The bathrooms are located in the hallway next to the restaurant.
