Cool dinner with all the vibes you would expect. Neat additions like flights and boards to sample lots of stuff. Really good menu with lots of options. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Decorated really well with neat little signs all over the place. My pictures don’t do it justice. You should stop in and see what they have here. I am glad I stopped this morning.
Came here because they had gluten free options for breakfast. The gluten free French toast was delicious. Everything we had was cooked perfectly and tasty. All of the servers were polite and friendly. We will be back again and again!
My husband and I went to Second Chance Diner for brunch and it was delicious!!! They have huge gf cinnamon pancakes! 😍
My wife and I love coming here for brunch. The bennies are to die for!
It's been a while but when I went, I ordered two buttermilk pancakes thinking they were regular size. They were as big as the plate! So delicious I cleaned my plate.
I live nearby and the parking lot is always full so they must be doing everything else just as well.
Nice to see they're open on Mondays when so many other places are closed.
This place should be on your list for go-to diners in CNY! They always have creative specials. Eggs Benedict flights, mimosa flights, the most delicious pancakes and French toast and waffles you’ve ever had. Whether you’re in the mood for sweet or savory, Second Chance will satisfy and make you wanting to come back again and try something else. Staff is always friendly and on their A game. For the delicious food the menu is very reasonably priced and portions are large.
We very much enjoy this diner. It's a great compromise between the greasy spoon style of old days and the new trendy fancy diners. They offer mimosa flights and breakfast sampler platters and those new type diner fare, but in a way that is not pretentious or elitist feeling. The food is delicious, never had a bad meal there and I get something different every time. Their mimosas are to die for. The service is excellent. Our server saw that we didn't like the hot chocolate and hand made a new cup for him. He loved it and was very happy. Quick turn around on orders, presentation is great. We really love coming here. Only problem.... Place is too small! Lol! 💜
Amazing menu and great prices! Best diner in the area for sure. 10/10 would recommend.
O M G. Came here on a rainy Saturday & it was exactly what we needed. The staff, Becca our server in particular, was friendly, polite & accommodating to us & the toddler. We enjoyed the eggs Benny flight. We did the veggie, sausage & traditional bennys; usually I don’t like spinach but let me tell you the veggie one was amazing! My sister got the PNB + Jelly stuffed French toast. It was the perfect combination of sweet & fulfilling. 10/10 recommend & hope to be back soon.
This is always busy, there is never a time that I have come here and there isn't a wait of 30 minutes or more. It's well worth the wait, I guarantee it. My favorite go-to is their country-fried steak and eggs. Can't tell you how many times I go to order this dish and they're out of it. But when I do get it, I savor it. You won't be disappointed.
So so good!! Will definitely be coming back. Not only was the food amazing but my server Elizabeth was just the best! Highly recommend requesting her if she’s working.
Best grits in central NY! Had the Benny board and hubby got the Shrimp and Grits-- we did not regret it! If you like fresh home fries, you may not care for these as they're frozen and then deep fried, but other than that, this place is an awesome breakfast spot for sure :)
My husband and I had an incredible dining experience! The manager Elizabeth made us feel so welcome and ensured that our visit from out of town was truly memorable. Their attention to detail and friendly demeanor made us feel right at home. We highly recommend this restaurant for anyone visiting NY!!
Great food and great service! I had the Philly omelet with home fries with coffee. My wife had eggs Benny with the Carmel pumpkin iced coffee. Everything we had was delicious. The food was served quickly and come out hot. The prices were a bit more than other dinners but the food was also considerably better. Worth every penny!
Large menu for most people and I was excited when I saw they had gluten free bread because I figured I could adapt most sandwiches, etc.; however, that wasn't the case. They were honest to say they don't have a separate workspace to prepare the gluten free items. So, I opted for a steak salad which was fantastic after having to send the first one back because it had croutons. We were there on a day they were closing early and got in just before - despite this, the waitress and woman from the kitchen who delivered my second salad, did not seem irritated with my concerns and worked quickly to right the issue. It was freezing cold so if you go, and I do recommend you do, be sure to bring a jacket or sweater to wrap up in! The food was great and the menu good for most people. We'll go back again...and will maybe include the delicious-looking mimosa flight!
Grabbed brunch with a friend and we had a wonderful time! Our server was absolutely amazing and so sweet plus the food was delicious! The service was fast and the restaurant was very clean. Definitely will go again soon!
Absolutely amazing and very fair priced! food was delicious as so quick so come out. 12%10!
Always friendly knowledgeable staff. Great food. Huge menu with gluten free and vegetarian options! Great place for kids. It’s a busy place so expect to be on a waitlist on the weekend but it’s WELL worth it
My experiences here range from good to fantastic. The homefries and pancakes are big highlights. Their gluten free pancakes are great but I do not think they are safe for celiac--but I'd double check with them.
Adam is the best server!! But their service is usually good all around.
