A friend came down from Sacandaga Lake, wanted to take a nice ride on a fall day and eat lunch somewhere. We visited the Black Cat Cafe! The owner is friendly, generous, and kind. Wonderful atmosphere. My friend ordered the reuben (which was a mouthful!). I wanted everything on the menu but settled for two mini quiche with side salad. So simple, but delicious. The lettuce was crunchy, the tomatoes red and sweet. I tried all three dressings: garlic, fig, (can't remember the third) balsamic. We found another couple to visit with. Even the other diners were friendly. We will definitely be back to try the salmon & cream cheese sandwich, the curried chicken salad on raisin bread, and the Thanksgiving sandwich. The owner said he had some tomato basil soup and would make us grilled cheese, which were not on the menu. Totally accommodating! We'll be back!
If you find yourself at the Canajoharie Exit on the New York Thruway around lunch time, exit and drive south for 15 minutes to Sharon Springs where you will find the Black Cat Cafe and Bakery. Treat yourself to the daily homemade soup or fresh green salad with figgy balsamic vinegar and one of the eclectic sandwiches that have been perfected by the owner/host, Tony, over many years. The picture shows 1/2 of the Thanksgiving Everyday sandwich to the left and 1/2 of the Reuben sandwich to the right. The turkey is roasted on site and comes with delicious homemade cranberry sauce and stuffing, and the corned beef is the leanest and most delicious I've had in a long time. It is also possible to order boxed lunches delivered to the Glimmerglass Theater in Cooperstown. We've always enjoyed these meals when attending performances there. After lunch enjoy browsing nearby shops, including the Beekman 1802 Mercantile. POST-PANDEMIC UPDATE-1: The Thanksgiving Everyday Sandwich is just as good as ever and it's just as much fun catching up on the news with Tony as you enjoy your lunch in his unique cafe and bakery.
Stopped in for a lunch with my sisters. The food was delicious. I had the curried chicken sandwich! Our server, Calista was exceptional. I will be back!
We stopped by here for lunch. It was my spouse and I, and our son. Immediately the staff and owner made us feel welcome. We ordered quiche, thanksgiving everyday, and goat cheese Mac and cheese. Everything was fantastic, some of the best I've ever had. You should definitely check this place out. You will not regret it. Excellent.
Very cute little cafe. Off the beaten path. Food was delicious. Great selection of sandwiches, soup, and salad.
