Things To Do

The Finger Lakes region is known for the incredible lakes, hikes, and plentiful wineries. The Watkins State Park Gorge Trail is a must-see. We highly recommend visiting the wineries and the lake while you are here if you have the time and we’ve included a selection of our favorites. The wineries are best visited by car or hiring a driver (the main road is dangerous and not walkable). At the top of the list, we've also included some recommendations for local restaurants.

The Elf In The Oak

4221 New York 414, Burdett, NY 14818

Fantastic Brunch, great sandwiches, and cocktails.

Ryan William Vineyard

4156 New York 414, Burdett, NY 14818

Amazing brunch/lunch. Try the lavender latte!

Lucky Hare Brewing Company

6085 Beckhorn Road, Hector, NY 14841

Yummy food at Babe's Burgers and Craft beer

Two Goats Brewing

5027 New York 414, Burdett, NY 14818

Arguably the best deck and view on Seneca Lake, definitely best bartenders :) try the goatmaster kolsch and a beef on weck.

Scale House Brewery

Great pizza and outdoor space. If you're feeling adventurous, try the pickle rick!

Graft Wine + Cider Bar

204 North Franklin Street, Watkins Glen, NY 14891

If you're looking something a little fancier than burgers and pizza, we highly recommend graft! Casey and her family have known the chef/owner Orlando for many years.
