4.7 / 5 (1952 reviews)

Description

Tucked in downtown Utica, this cozy, no-frills breakfast spot is praised for generous, reliably delicious morning plates—from eggs Benedict and corned beef hash to Irish omelettes, pancakes and a fan-favorite Waffle Sammich. Portions are huge, coffee is fresh, prices fair, and service is warm and personal (even the cook greets guests). The room feels homey and lively, though acoustics can make it noisy when busy. Consistently recommended for locals and visitors, it’s a go-to for anyone craving an outstanding breakfast.

Had a great experience here stopping through. Baby-friendly, changing table in the bathroom, very friendly service and great specials. As a casual breakfast/brunch spot, Craylee's checks all the boxes. Will definitely be back.

Ciambotta was really good. Creative menu. Server was friendly and efficient even though she had a big table. Great experience.

Great food and superb service. It does get loud in here but it’s a cool vibe. The mushroom omelette was great tasting and cooked perfect just as was the eggs Benedict.

Great food and service! Me and my oldest son got off the Thruway on our way to a college visit. We went solely based on the 4.8 star review and we were not disappointed! Great service and the food came out quickly. It’s not near me but if I’m ever that way again I’ll surely stop in.
