Things To Do in Ithaca
Ithaca Commons
This is the main area in town where you can find an assortment of shops, restaurants, bars, cafes, etc. Great for walking around & people watching! Some favorite shops to check out are Home Green Home, Mockingbird Paperie, Buffalo Street Books, Autumn Leaves Books & Angry Mom Records. Parking is free on the street & in parking garages on weekends thankfully!
Ithaca Farmer's Market
The Ithaca Farmer's Market has dozens of stands ranging from flowers, home goods, locally made arts & crafts, and a variety of different food that you can sit and enjoy by the docks since it's located next to the water. It's open Saturdays 9am-3pm & Sundays 10am-3pm so catch it while you can!
Collegetown Bagels
Waffle Frolic
Viva Taqueria
Simeon's American Bistro
Purity Ice Cream Co.
Homemade hard ice cream that is a local favorite!
Sweet Melissa's Ice Cream Shop
If soft serve ice cream is your thing, this is the place to go!
Ithaca College
Venture up the hill on Danby Rd. and you can check out where we went to college! It is a quick drive around the campus and has a very scenic view of Cayuga Lake.
Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art
If you have some time to kill and are up for seeing some art, this is the place to go. It is located on the Cornell Campus and the top floor has the best panoramic view of the surrounding area.
Cayuga Nature Center
Very unique place with easily walkable trails through the woods, live animals including Daisy the fox, and an awesome six story treehouse!
Cascadilla Gorge Trail
Ithaca is Gorges, as they say! This is a fairly easy walk along the gorge with waterfall views. The steps are up hill though so be prepared. It is conveniently located just a couple minutes walking distance away from the Commons.
Buttermilk Falls State Park
Just a short drive away from town, this state park has plenty of scenic waterfalls, hiking trails and even swimming if you want to cool down from the summer heat.
Taughannock Falls State Park
If your feeling adventurous, Taughannock Falls state park is a great place to venture out and go on an easy-moderate hike along the water, or even just to stop at the scenic overlook of the waterfall. The falls here are famously three stories taller than Niagara Falls!
Treleaven Wines
Six Mile Creek Vineyard & Distillery
Ports of New York Winery
South Hill Cider
