I read the reviews and I was expecting really good breakfast. My son ordered a pancakes and realized that the pancakes were corn bread pancakes instead of regular pancakes. My bagel were cold and very hard.

Hubby and I brought our daughter and her roommates here for lunch. It was a cold day and had to sit at the picnic table outside because there is VERY little seating inside. Staff is friendly but overworked, looking for help. Food was delicious and affordable . We'll definitely go back on a warm day

I have been visiting coalyard cafe since 2020, it’s my go to place for a quick filling and fulfilling breakfast experience!I always get the falafel or the breakfast croissant (hands down the softest croissant in the world). Definitely swing by when visiting Ithaca ❤️

The food here was phenomenal! Our group went here for a late breakfast after a wine tour and we were all super impressed. They had something for everyone and everything we tried was delicious!

This is a quaint, little cafe. Nice decor and a casual, student-friendly vibe. A range of health-savvy options, such as natural nondairy options, etc. The chef was knowledgeable about gluten free requirements. I got the gluten free rice bowl, with spiced pork, avocado, carrots, cucumber, and a fried egg on top. Tasty and visually appealing. My friend got the regular El Cubano. It was cheesy and toasty and really good, he said. Quality food and I felt confident in their promise to accommodate my dietary needs. Would go again!

Great spot for a quick breakfast or lunch or just a coffee on the way to campus! They do get busy on Weekends and holidays, with waits occasionally getting up to 30-45 minutes, but I think that just speaks to their popularity around East Ithaca.Staff is friendly, food is great, and the decor is cozy and authentically historic

I think it's overrated.The whole ordering and paying procedure could be better organized. You can go ahead and choose your table, but there are no signs telling which tables have been cleaned. There is no boards or LCDs at the ordering section to easily have access to the menu and once I asked for a menu the staff didn't have one to hand me, and was like go pick it up from there! I think it was a little rude and disorganized. Then I asked to pay for my friends and they said "yeah, I got their order, you can pay at the end" then I realized one of my friends was charged separately and they had forgotten to write down my other friend's order.The food was average. Omlet was not that tasty, and the bread was either not toasted at all or it was hard to notice.I was excited to find a good place for breakfast or brunch in Ithaca and I was disappointed.

Great menu and had my fav crepes with my grandkids.

When Bitcoin was introduced by Satoshi people were largely ignorant of the harmful side effects of it not until it becomes the most popular digital marketing currency and with Bitcoin I was able to invest on a good broker website and with that I can make thousands of money trading Bitcoin after mining successfully by an Expert trader called Kathrine.I’ve used my $1000 to earn $11,000 with Kathrine,and you can get in touch with her website details for contacting her on Whatsapp: +12523688769 Gmail:[email protected]

Though the place is packed all the time the food is very mediocre. Breakfast places are a scam in general but this place is particularly disappointing. Shakshuka was barely cooked and just tomato paste from a pan. The bagel with Lox was crumble and sloppily put together.The crepes were ok. I won't recommend it.
