One of best places to get good food! Great atmosphere inside plus they have good outdoor seating. Our server was good nice and friendly. Food was very good! My burger was 💥! Tacos was great!
Great food and drinks, wonderful waitstaff. We were there for a friends birthday and they made him feel special which as a wonderfully nice added touch to the evening!
Absolutely amazing experience! The first thing we were asked was if either of us have dietary restrictions and I have celiac disease so I let the server know. He was so knowledgeable about what I could and couldn't have and I haven't had such a good meal without being cross containmenated in SO long that this was such a treat for me. The salmon was out of this world. I highly recommend!!
My tastebuds and I love The Autumn Cafe. It's local and conveniently located right in the heart of downtown Oneonta. I can not speak to their lunch or dinner menu. However, their brunch menu is always a hit! With fresh, new tasty brunch specials and yummy breakfast drinks, no wonder you have to RSVP. The servers are also pretty awesome. I will be returning again and again!
We've been here for every kind of meal at one point or another, breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. I think the chefs are incredible.. some of the dishes they put together and the flavor combinations are so amazing and so pleasing to the palate... the atmosphere is really nice... many reasons why we keep returning!! Well done Autumn Cafe!
Cool pub- nice atmosphere - we had the Brooklyn Summer Ale and Watermelon margarita w- homemade pretzel- YUM
love their breakfast burrito bowl thing very filling and yummy- a bit pricey though that’s expected service is a bit slow but i think that’s just their vibe so it’s fine they definitely love/favor their regulars tho
I’m always looking for a nice breakfast/brunch spot. It was either the Latte Lounge or Autumn’s Cafe & we wanted more brunch vibes. The Classic Egg Benedict was delicious! We ordered a couple of the Local platters. The espresso & strawberry mimosas were good. The seating is cozy & the staff was welcoming. We had a reservation for 11:30am for 6 people. We didn’t realize the time & got there 45 minutes early (never happens lol) but the hostess was able to accommodate us which was great. I do recommend making a reservation because by 12:30 there were definitely more people. There’s a full bar inside & outdoor seating available which is nice because you have a view of the mountains. Parking is a little tricky because they’re fixing one of the sidewalks on the side streets but there is street parking in front. Overall, we had a good time & service was good. Our waiter was nice & answered any of our questions.
All in all it was a great experience. Definitely will come back. Kids enjoyed it. Was able to eat outside. Server was super friendly.
A fun time at the bar with my daughter when visiting. The drinks during happy hour are a great deal! Lots of selection and good snacks.
