I have Celiac disease and severe lactose intolerance, but I have been able to enjoy two safe and delicious meals at Bocca Osteria during my stay at Cooperstown. Our server, Asia, was friendly and attentive, and the food was amazing. I highly recommend Bocca Osteria for anyone, but especially for those with food allergies.
My wife & I celebrated our anniversary at Hawkeye in the early fall and were amazed by the fall foliage and gorgeous lakeside view. The beer sampler and the white sangria were really tasty and the food we ordered (salad with salmon and fried chicken with dill coleslaw) was as exquisite as the view. Hawkeye also gets a gold star for offering a large number of gluten-free options. We look forward to returning again soon.

If you enjoy delicious coffee, good eats and a pleasant atmosphere, this is a must-visit little coffee shop tucked off the main drag in Cooperstown. Espresso, served in a small to-go cup instead of the tiny espresso cups which is good if you want to add milk I guess, was nutty, dark and delicious with a less pronounced bitterness than most others. Broad and creative hot and cold coffee selections including iced coffee - toffee, Super Cold brew (with MCT coconut oil) and Myco Brew coffee (with Host Defense Mushroom Extract). Wide variety of food that expands far beyond just breakfast including a range of garden salads, deli sandwiches, and Paninis make this a fun spot to come for lunch as well. Nice mix of seating options, including a window counter upfront with high top seating, table seating along the sides, a nice more semi formal seating area with tables in the back, and a fun patio with umbrellas in the back. The tables on the back room are arranged next to what appears to be a steam engine from a 1940s locomotive. Actually, on second glance, that looks like that might be their coffee roasting equipment. Unfortunately, can’t see the lake from here, but the food and beverages more than makes up for the lack of views (and I don’t think there really is much lakefront dining here). They do offer some gluten-free bread options, and do have a couple vegan options, but nothing that is gluten-free and vegan. Knowledgeable and extremely friendly staff will help you select your order as well as engaged in witty banter. Definitely recommend making the trip!
Had 2 nites of take out from this very nice little restaurant in downtown Cooperstown. The food was very good and staff friendly and helpful with my gluten free needs
Every summer we drive to Origins Cafe in Cooperstown for delicious food and beautiful plants/flowers. It is a wonderful place for brunch/lunch all served in their open lush greenhouse. We love their refreshing iced herbal hibiscus 🌺 tea. Also, gluten free and vegan options available as well as local goat cheese from the painted goat farm. The energy is amazing here.
Great service, amazing food and fantastic atmosphere! Took a quick trip to Cooperstown and picked here out of a bunch of options. We got the octopus appetizer and my husband enjoyed it (turns out I'm not a seafood fan)! The rest of our food was DELICIOUS! Wish we could come back to try the rest of the menu! (Also loved that I could get a gluten free pasta option! Thank you!)
Delicious, fluffy gluten free buns are available for the sandwiches! The lemon herb stir fry is also gluten free but I only had room for one meal - and it was fantastic! We definitely didn't go away hungry! Our waitress was attentive and friendly, the food was delicious, and the chef cooked all my food separately to make sure there was no chance of cross contamination. We're definitely eating here again next time we're in Cooperstown!
This is worth finding in Cooperstown, it is on a side street and not on the Main Street but only a five minute walk from the museum. Cute covered patio with excellent food. Great stop for lunch, after going to baseball hall of fame. The service was great and the food came out fast. The burgers were excellent and I highly recommend the “Big pig” burger. It is not on the menu but they have great gluten free buns also.

They are attentive, knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The menu clearly indicates gluten free, vegan and vegetarian options. The music and decor felt romantic particularly at the bar. The drinks are high quality. Today's special was a fresh muddled cucumber mint and lime martini made with Hendricks gin.I had the pakora and the best Aloo Gobi I have had in years.
It's all about the view sitting on the edge of the water watching the boats go by, eating a burger and sipping a cocktail. Gluten free buns are even available!
This place was recommended by the fellow working in the bakery the street. So glad for the information because we would not have found this place otherwise. Everything about this place was cheerful and cozy on a drizzly day. Great chili, burgers, and fries. They even have gluten-free hamburger buns for those of us who can't eat normal buns. Home run!
