    You can’t go wrong here. We come here everytime to Cooperstown (several times a year) and food + service outstanding. Our server Ali is the best and even helped convince the chef to bring back his phenomenal fried chicken dinner called The Local. Their burgers are the best anywhere too and good wine selection by the glass.

    The food is excellent in a grand old hotel. We have eaten there on several occasions. This time, the waitress could just not be bothered - very unattentive
