Collegiate — Restaurant in Town of Alfred

Boy oh Boy I was here in town to bring a group of high school students to visit Alfred state for a tour, by the time we arrived I was FAMISHED. I googled food near me and The Collegiate was the 1st location to pop up I had already decided what I was gonna order from looking at a menu I saw on Yelp I was so undecided so i ordered The Jack Plate it had a little bit of everything on it 1French Toast 1Pancake 1 strip of bacon 1 sausage 1 large scrambled egg ( Well any way you want it) and Home fries the home fries are the best they were seasoned to perfection and cooked down with onions oh My goodness I couldn’t stop eating them the food was absolutely Delicious…. my Lord, the Carrot Cake!!!!! It was so moist you can taste all the spices that carrot cake is supposed to have and the cream cheese frosting did me in I’m STUFFED I do declare, every town needs a COLLEGIATE with great service, Great Food at fair prices I wish I didn’t live so far so I could try more than just the Breakfast. I live in Rochester 1hr 30min drive. I should’ve taken the picture of the carrot cake before I started eating it but I couldn’t...

I have never felt more uncomfortable in my life. Went here literally five minutes ago and me and two of my friends went to grab a table. We waited to be seated but the girl at the front desk said we could sit anywhere. So we first waited for 11 mins before we got a menu. So after that we were told someone will be with us shortly and after another 15 mins we noticed that all of the servers were walking around and greetino other people who got in after us and made it appear as we were invisible. After they greeted the others they would move off to the side and started talking and laughing. After another 10 mins me and my friends got up and left. When we got up a staff member came over quickly and cleaned off our table. Me and my friends are all African American and it really sucked that we were treated that way, I used to attend Alfred a few years ago and never experienced that the whole time I was there. I definitely want to go back and give them a piece of my mind but it is not even worth it....

My family just had lunch at The Collegiate "The Jet" in Alfred, NY. My meal was so greasy and unedible that I called the waitress over to send it back and just settle for an order of fries that I hoped they wouldn't mess up. The portobello burger was wet with grill grease and the home fries I ordered as a side barely tasted like potatoes and were covered with an orange tinged grease. I took two bites of the burger and knew I wouldn't be able to eat it. The waitress came back a few minutes later and informed me that I would still have to pay the meal (that I didn't eat). I was infuriated at the very idea. When I asked why she claimed the manager said it was not their fault I didn't like it so I had to pay for it. Naturally I was disgusted and said so. I canceled my fries. She went back and spoke to the manager and he took half off. My husband's patty melt looked like prison food and his eggplant fries were dripping in grease. Word to the...
