    As frequent visitors, we want to unconditionally love Frog Pond Farms, because it's clearly a LOT…read moreof work to offer what they do and we respect that kind of hard work. When our daughters were toddlers, they could spend all day looking at the animals while we browsed through the enormous quantities of plants and produce. But we can't continue to ignore the "cons". The parking lot looks like it's been bombed, and - as other reviews have noted - it's not exactly the safest place when you consider lots of children running around. Visitors must be extra vigilant and patient when pulling in and finding a place to park. On busy days, the one long narrow strip of parking spots can be a challenge. The far end of the business where chicks, ducks, and bunnies are sold is incredibly fly infested. Fly paper rolls could go a long way in making it more tolerable. I'm not sure if the horrid conditions in some of the cages impacts the health of the birds, but I can tell you we purchased 5 silkie chicks a couple of weeks ago, and two of them died within days, and a third is showing signs of distress. This is not the first time we've had this experience with animals we've purchased there - sick animals, inaccurate sexing. We have stopped considering Frog Pond as our "go-to" place when we want to add to our flocks. The flies are also a problem in the fruits and vegetables. I was browsing the display of berries and grapes and completely rejected any notion of buying them with the quantity of flies that were landing on them. I don't know if there's a solution to that, being that it's - in effect - an outdoor farm stand. Look, there's a lot that's amazing and wonderful and unique about Frog Pond. The work they put in to stocking it, the amazing math wizard at the register who adds everything up in his head just like his dad did, etc. The place has gotten a LOT bigger since we first discovered it and that growth may be working against them. Other reviewers have stated much of the produce is trucked in from outside the area, and not grown locally. Not sure if that matters to most people, but the place does give the "vibe" that it's a local source farm stand that offers plentiful heaps of whatever's in season. The prices are quite a bit higher than what you'd pay for similar items in local grocery stores, but again - we understand the overhead must be pretty substantial for Frog Pond. If you have children - especially little ones - they'll see the place as Disney. When the magic wears off, though, and you start noticing how many greenbacks you're handing over when you go, you start to consciously reflect on whether it's worth the trip out there.

    Sad so many bunnies and chicks in small cages. They are so close they can barely move. Two goats in…read more a small, fenced area with very little room to walk. To me that's animal cruelty. :-(

    So I'm on my way home and I'm driving near Norwich and I Google search chocolate shops in the area,…read moreand nothing really comes up but this particular donut shop/ bakery did so I figured close enough let's give it a shot. I walk in, the place looks nice and clean and they had a couple little racks of pastries and slices of pie and this other rack full of donuts. Not just plain donuts, but some cool specialty donuts. So I figure who doesn't like a decent donut? I grabbed a six pack. While there I was talking to the girl behind the counter and I asked if they could make a key lime pie. (Doesn't look like the kind of place that would be able to pull it off but the sign out front does say bakery.) . She took down my name and number and said the owners would give me a call tomorrow to discuss it. So far my wife and I have only had a couple of the donuts that I bought however they were very good. I would place them definitely in front of Dunkin donuts because in my opinion those taste more like cake, but not quite as good as Krispy Kreme. Not that that's a bad thing because who wants to drive to Pennsylvania for a donut? (Well okay I kind of do but I'm in that area anyways from time to time) I am planning on stopping back here at least one more time this month as one of the donuts in the selection was a peanut butter and jelly. Doesn't sound very good to say it out loud however the girl behind the counter said they're actually pretty good and my wife kind of seems interested in trying it because well it is rather different.

    I purchased a doughnut, a bagel and a piece of blueberry cheesecake. Everything was very good would…read moredefinitely go back.

    Okay so I've been here a few times, and honestly I should stop more often because I live rather…read moreclose. They have what is in my opinion a better donut than Dunkin donuts down the road. (I'm still partial to Krispy Kreme however that's quite a drive from here.). The place is rather large, the dining area indoors looks like it's good for at least 30 people anyways and then the outdoor porch weather permitting is probably good for another 20. I arrived about 15 minutes after they opened and the line was forming pretty quickly however it also moved along pretty quickly. The person that takes your order is not the same person that gets your donuts and puts them in the box, so that seems to streamline things pretty well. There's a display up by the cash register with one of every donut that is currently being sold that morning/day so you can make your selection easier. The menu is a little more extensive than donuts, as they also have hoagies and shareables and of course coffee/ juices. For whatever reason, somebody decided to put donuts with beer... Yeah I don't know... But, if the mood strikes you they have a very fine selection that they rotate from time to time of draft beer. It's a pour your own kind of a thing and they also sell growlers. There's of course t-shirts and other random souvenirs that not only have the company logo/wording but Owego in general. Bottom of mind this place is definitely worth a visit.

    The ambiance was very nice. The employee's were very sweet and helpful. The donuts and coffee were…read morevery yummy!! I highly reccomend this place and will definitely go back.

I liked my avocado sandwich+fried egg, but the popcorn chicken and waffles seems like their take on the classic and I want to try their taro latte. I'm sad they don't offer the strawberry sando anymore, but I guess it's not instagram popular enough yet for the current clientele to prop it up :(

She gave us four small cups of water. I went back to ask for a refill of water and a larger cup for the water. She told me those cups were for lattes only. I told her we just spent $60 in here, could I please have a plastic cup of water. She then got combative, raised her voice and yelled. "You are being rude to me. You need to stop." This was done in front of other customers and my children who were frightened by her reaction. I have never had such a rude interaction at a restaurant. It is clear she was having a bad day or was extremely emotional for some reason however, she shouldn't bring that to a place of business. Thankfully, after this interaction, she stormed out of the coffee area and did not return. Another employee had to man the barista station. I would not recommend this place.
