A solid spot for brunch in Ithaca!…read more I wish it was located a tad closer to c-town, but when the weather is warm it is actually quite a nice walk (still definitely walkable even in the winter)! We tried the breakfast croissant, the breakfast burrito, and crepes. We also ordered a hot Razz Mocha and an iced matcha (both with oat milk). I wish they had more milk varieties (only had whole and oat). Everything except the matcha was super tasty! I really loved the razz mocha- I will definitely be ordering this again. The crepes were my favorite entree- slightly thicker than your typical crepe, more of a chew. Nonetheless, very yummy. I like the berry compote and whipped cream. I enjoyed the croissant sandwich- ours had lox and egg. Too much egg, but perhaps the right amount of egg if you just want an egg sandwich without meat... Burrito was fine, though a tad watery. There was a bit of a line when we came- Saturday around noon and not much seating. We took our food to-go. Better to come when the weather is warmer- there is more seating under the tend in the back. Have heard mixed things about their other dishes, but I will definitely be returning!

I always thought pita was pita everywhere. I don't know if they buy this or bake it themselves but it was warm and rich and amazing! Really fantastic. The beet salad was excellent and everything you'd want in a fresh salad. Dressing was sublime and didn't overpower the rest of what was on the plate. Can't wait to go back! Very reasonably priced as well. We don't drink but it looked as though they had a nice selection of wine and beer.

Wow, shockingly good!…read more I tried the Za'atar Chicken Malawach and it was delicious! Portions are quite large- at least for the Chicken Malawach. The wrap was overflowing and it was very filling. Cute fast casual spot in downtown Ithaca. Wait was pretty short for our food. The malawach is buttery flaky slightly crisp perfection. I would eat these plain. I will definitely be returning for the malawach!

I got the coconut shrimp sandwich which was crispy but i believe very overshadowed by the bread itself. It tasted mostly of vinegar and perhaps could've benefited from more shrimp or a balance of ingredients. The donuts were phenomenal! Chewy, soft, squishy, and full of flavor from the dough. I very much recommend them!

When I think of Café Jennie, the first thing that comes to mind is their desserts and baked goods…read more They offer a delightful variety of sweet snacks, including brownies (with a variety of combinations) and macarons--a rare find on campus. I've tried their sandwiches before, and while they're decent, they can be a bit on the dry side. The salads, however, are fantastic! Personally, I prefer the sandwiches at Goldie's. Café Jennie is located on the second floor of the Cornell Store, in a beautifully well-lit area with plenty of natural light. Finding seating can be a challenge since it fills up quickly, and it's easy to see why. Sitting here makes me a thousand times more productive for some reason. It's definitely one of the prettier cafes on campus, though I still think Goldie's ambiance is superior. I give Café Jennie 4 stars for their impressive variety. If you have a sweet tooth, you'll find plenty to satisfy your cravings!

I'm lactose intolerant and 2. 1 of us is vegetarian. This place checks all the boxes and we both can order without having to worry about anything. They also have wheat free options which is another plus. I got the breakfast wrap and it was probably one of the best wraps I've ever had. Definitely stepped out of my comfort zone trying it because I've only had the cheese on it but none of the other ingredients. I also got the strawberry mango smoothie with oat milk and it was the perfect match to my wrap. My friends had already eaten here and were raving about how good the cheese fries were and how I could actually eat them and they really were so good! Over all it was such a great experience and I love the diner vibes. The parking is a little iffy because it's in the same area of Dominos so it's a little limited but there's a parking garage around the corner and street parking is always an option. I have a new favorite place to eat where I can order and enjoy what I'm eating in peace.

We were eating light so went for coffee (excellent) and an apple cinnamon roll (outstanding). They had a lineup of breakfast sandwiches that sounded good, but the menu seemed to be missing a lot of diner classics like pancakes. Also, not sure what they have against reusable tableware, but everything was served in cardboard baskets and paper cups. They actually had a shelf stocked with your typical diner ceramic mugs, but they absolutely refused to serve my coffee in one, insisting on using a disposable cup. I also appreciated that they had kombucha (Aqua ViTea) and vegan doughnuts and soft serve.
