Best fried chicken in the area. Everything is fresh made and of high quality. You walk in and get the old nostalgic feeling. Ice cream is some of the best I have ever had, rotational special soft serve flavors are some of the best, pumpkin cinnamon was probably the best ice cream flavor I have found, but only around in the fall. And don't forget the corn fritters!

Delicious chicken!!! Very juicy meat, crunchy flavorful crust. Loved the corn fritters, too. Dinner was great. We must be spoiled in Wayne Co, however, because the ice cream was quite expensive for the serving.

A fun little place apparently known for their fried chicken and ice cream. They offer a small dining room with eat it or take out, they also have enclosed outside seating. The menu is huge with so many options. I will say the chicken is very good. Corn fritters seem to highlight the place, but they were just ok imo. I am a huge fan of these "unique" hometown drive in restaurants. This place is def a gem. The staff is very friendly, food is well worth it and the place is always busy so that says something.

We waited over 30 minutes for (2) 2 piece meals.Inquired after 20 minutes and we were told it wouldBe ready soon... waited another 10 minutes. Asked again and we were told 2 min because they were working on a take order of 50 pieces.WILL NOT RETURN.This caused us to be late for a college softball game that we drove 2 hours to seeNo apologies, and it's been over 2 minutes and we are still waiting.

Great place to stop and grab some lunch or dinner ! Great selection of food way more then just chicken (chickens awesome tho) I love the fried claims ! Portion size is great, one 3 piece meal easily feeds me and my wife...we get two when we stop for lunch so we have left overs for dinner !

This has been a family favorite for 60 years when visiting Penn Yan. But stick to the ice cream. The fried chicken is so over rated. It is probably the worst I have ever had. The batter is terrible and seems over fried. I tried it on two recent occasions just to be sure I hadn't caught them on a bad night. I love fried chicken but sadly, this is definitely not the place to get it! Be careful entering/exiting the dining room in the back, you have to cross through the drive through traffic.Great place to bring the kids for ice cream, there is a covered/heated tent, lots of picnic tables, and a play area with a kid sized ice cream truck.Parking: The parking lot can fill up on summer nights, but the drive-through is more fun anyway!

Ridiculously great fried chicken!! and other things too. The hotdogs snd burgers were great too but the chicken is top notch! The ice cream and shakes are yummy. Definitely worth a trip and a stop over when in the area. You willnot be disappointed!!!

Excellent ice cream. Awesome place,plenty of outdoor seating with coverings to keep off the sun. Very clean and very friendly staff. We'll definitely be back. Many flavors too choose from. Don't walk, run there it's that good!

Sounds like a great place for fried chicken but the chicken tenders were big disappointment compared to the fried chicken legs and breast. Seems to me the the chicken tenders are more like run of the mill frozen tenders that are then dumped in the fryer. The highlight was certainty corn fritters which are a must try. The dipping sauces of honey mustard and blue cheese were on spot as well.

We vacationed at the Finger Lakes in mid-October & were lucky enough to hit this place a few days before it closed for the season. We had read great reviews for the fried chicken so we made a special trip there. The chicken & corn fritters were really good. After the meal we also indulged in the highly rated ice cream. Delicious! The atmosphere would have been better in warmer weather, because there are beautiful places to eat outside. And of course, who doesn't live a gift shop!

Chicken is really good. Mac and cheese is the typical food service mac and cheese. But i like that mac and cheese anyhow. Beans are ok. Neither takes away from the rating. Service was quick and friendly. If you've got the time, eat here, it won't cost anymore than a fast food joint and you're supporting a local business.

We went here to pick up dinner. We bought three salads and a cup mac and cheese. Also, the corn fritters were recommended. The salads were fresh and delicious. The appearance in the take-home boxes, well they use huge boxes and they come half empty - but don't be fooled by that - there is plenty of salad in it!The fritters, however, didn't cause much excitement on our side. But: We had Fritters for the first time in our lives. So we cannot compare!

Nothing like some amazing ice cream on a hot summer day. On the shores of a big lake in New York. Not much room on the inside, but the portions are big and the ice cream is awesome!

Cool little place! Delicious fried chicken and a great selection of ice cream for desert. Nice outdoor seating area. Drive-thru service for food available.

The corn fritters were top notch and the chicken was very good as well, although I wish I got different parts that included more meat. Mac salad was Mac salad, but the Mac and cheese was very tasty. The ice cream was pretty good, although the homemade soft serve isn’t as creamy as say Perry’s. Yet Perry’s doesn’t have different flavors of softserve like Seneca Farms. Overall a great place for dinner and desert!

One of my favorite places to visit in Penn Yan.. their food is amazing. If you've never been you should definitely put it on your list of places to go. They do get pretty busy around lunch time so if you're in a rush you should plan to order a head. However even when they're busy, the wait is usually only about 10 minutes or so. Sometimes seating can be difficult as it is a small restaurant, but they have additional seating outside.In addition to their food the ice cream has made the list of one of the top ice cream dives in western New York. Again.. definitely worth checking out if you've never been

Overall a great place to take the family for ice cream or a meal always busy but they move right along to get everyone waited on

I’ve been coming her for at least 15 years and I have always been satisfied with their food here. Their chicken is like no other in the region and the inside has a nice “classic” feel to it with a bunch of Coca-Cola retro stuff. There is a restroom inside, and has plenty of outdoor seating. Menu has a good variety of other food besides chicken. Prices are still reasonable even with the recent price increase on some of their products, but still satisfied with the food and service!

So we visited this place in town on a Saturday and were blown away by the ice cream (and corn fritters my girlfriend said)!! I had the cappuccino and double dark chocolate peanut butter on a cone while the lady had almond joy and coffee (both on cones). The ice cream was lovely though the heat outside directly tried to turn it into cereal milk. The same building also had more traditional food options which we had mac n cheese, cole slaw(house salad), corn fritters, and mozzarella sticks. Only thr fritters were good most of the other food lacked seasoning or sauce choices to add to their experience. Customer service was great... though pretty sure our order taker wss baked more than any dinner roll was. Give it a try if you are looking for a sweet treat!!

Great ice cream and excellent service. There are a ton of kids working the counter so there is no waiting around for service.
