As soon as we walked in we could smell the delicious cookies baking and the coffee brewing and knew this was a major upgrade from the Sweet Frog that used to be at this location. You can tell that the new owners did a great job of updating the interior, adding a coffee bar with an espresso machine. They kept the self-service ice cream taps but don't try to use them yourself, they they put the ice cream together for you here.

Read moreStopped in on a road trip through NY (it's just off Route 81 & 86) and so glad we did! It's just steps from an Electrify America (Evolve NY) supercharger.

Highly recommend stopping in here whether you are local or...

We were told you can host meetings with AV requirements in the back room or have private meetings or parties as well.
