Alexander's Cafe — Restaurant in City of Binghamton

Alexander's Cafe shines with an out of this world Panini!

We visited Alexander's Cafe for lunch on the weekend between noon and 2pm, the establishment was slightly busy.

This was my first venture to Alexander's and while I was initially skeptical, I left overly impressed. Staff were friendly and quick to assist with taking our order. There are plenty of selections here, ranging from salads to wraps and paninis. Between us we ordered a "scorcher" panini, a "chicken teriyaki" wrap, a side of loaded potato salad and a mango smoothie.

We opted to eat in the dining room and received our food very shortly after we ordered (within 5 minutes). The teriyaki wrap had great flavor and the mango smoothie was incredibly tasty. I was expecting the scorcher panini to be quite hot, but it had what I would consider to be a pleasant amount of heat. Very manageable and I believe anyone that has even a slight tolerance to spicy food would enjoy it! The panini bread itself was probably the highlight of the trip, it was absolutely delicious! I think I could have had a lunch of just the panini bread and a soup and been totally satisfied. Absolutely fantastic.

Keeping in mind we did opt for a side, a can of soda, and a smoothie with our lunch items, our meal for two cost us a little over $35. This isn't... "Crazy" per se, but i wouldn't consider it cheap either. The size of the wrap and the panini would honestly be enough to fill you up on their own so if you are looking to save a few bucks, keep that in mind.

Overall our trip to Alexander's was very positive. We will certainly add this establishment to our...

I was at their shop on a late Saturday afternoon. I hadn't planned on stopping by, but I was quite hungry. It seems like a great place to have a meal and a cup of coffee with friends. Unfortunately these were covid times, so I opted for take out. The dining room seems to be open for limited seating and they also have tables outside.

The menu options include salads, paninis and baked goods apart from beverages- hot and cold (they have smoothies). The paninis are around $10-12 and salads range from $5-9 depending on the size. They also have wraps and a few other sides. I ordered the Chicken Scorcher- it had grilled chicken, veg, mozzarella and jalapenos. The service was quick, the cashier was polite and friendly and the sandwich was delicious!! It was quite filling, I only managed to finish half. I also got a chocolate muffin from them, which ended as breakfast for the next day. It was great with coffee.

Will definitely go...

Whenever I return to Binghamton after being gone for awhile, Alexanders Scorcher is one of my first meals. The food here is always excellent!!!

*Edit: I am revising my review to say that I can no longer support this business based on how they treat employees. Food is great, service is always exceptional, but I can't in good conscience spend my money here knowing how the fantastic employees who work here are treated behind the scenes. Sorry Alex, I've enjoyed your food over the years. I'm disappointed by what I would describe as petty and unbecoming behavior towards employees who...
