Pumpkin Hill Bistro

My mom and I were looking for a quick bite to eat before a college tour. After arguing if we had enough time, we came to Pumpkin Hill Bistro. It's the most adorable place! The staff is lovely, and they even have Halloween decorations set up right now and they are so cute. The drinks come in mason jars which I just love. The view is beautiful, and the patio in the shade was breezy and not too hot. I really recommend the patio, sitting inside is like punishing yourself! This view is too great to pass up. When I was ordering I told them I was gluten free and they told me they had a gluten free bun for my burger! The food is excellent and if this is your only stop on the beautiful route 90- like my mom and I: this is the place to go. This place is simply the best.

We really enjoyed this charming, quirky, homestyle restaurant on the drive down the east side of Cayuga Lake. The service and ambience were excellent, the food was local, fresh, and interesting, and the prices were reasonable.
There's plenty of outdoor seating, but not a significant lake view that we could see.

What a find! I stumbled upon this place when my friends and I stayed at a lakehouse in King Ferry. The weather when we dined here wasn't the best, but I can imagine how perfect it would be, sitting outside overlooking the lake. My friends and I came here on a Friday afternoon for lunch, it was fairly busy, but there was plenty of room to accommodate a party of 6. I got the salad and sandwich combo, which was around $11. Got the curried chicken sandwich which was ok but the salad was delicious. Fresh veggies and a delicious homemade lemon vinaigrette. We all shared two desserts which were both delicious: the pumpkin whoopie pie and a homemade berry pie. The atmosphere was fantastic, an old farm house, with the dessert menu written on rolling pins. Great experience!
