Looking for breakfast places in Cortland? Here\u2019s a list of some reliable choices that won\u2019t disappoint.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cortland Diner<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located right on Main Street, Cortland Diner is a classic sit-down breakfast spot that you can always count on. They are open from 7am-9pm, Tuesday through Saturday, and 7am-3pm on Sundays. Inside, it has the feel of a small-town family diner, although it is often pretty busy (especially on weekends) and something I really enjoy is the free coffee refills that ensure your cup always stays full. If you bring your appetite, I recommend the Hungry Man\u2019s Platter, which comes with 2 eggs, choice of 2 pancakes or 2 French toast, Italian sausage, 2 strips of bacon, home fries, and toast all for just about $15. Whatever you get here will leave you satisfied with both the taste and price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York Bagel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York Bagel is a student favorite also located on Main Street, where you\u2019ll find a wide selection of bagels, sandwiches, coffee, acai bowls, and more. Open from 7am-4pm Monday through Saturday and 8am-3pm on Sundays, this works as a quick grab and go or a casual sit in breakfast. However, if you\u2019re going on a weekend, you might want to consider calling in your order ahead of time because you may have to do some waiting otherwise. Their sandwiches and bagels are consistently good, and they let you substitute\/add ingredients to your liking. If you haven\u2019t already, stop by and give New York Bagel a try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bru 64<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The third and final Main Street recommendation on this list is for Bru 64. With coffee and breakfast during the day and live music and drinks at night, Bru does many things well, although we\u2019re here to talk about the former for now. They are open from 7am-8pm Monday through Thursday, 7am-9pm on Friday, 7am-5pm on Saturday, and 8am-3pm on Sunday. The indoor seating is quite spacious and provides a direct view of Main Street. I enjoy stopping by here for some good coffee and breakfast sandwiches, my favorite being the Cali Dreamin, which comes with bacon, egg, cheese, siracha mayo, avocado, and tomato on your choice of bagel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prandium Caf\u00e9 & Eatery<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Prandium, you\u2019ll have to make the drive over to Homer Avenue unlike the rest on this list. Their hours are Tuesday through Sunday from 8am-4pm and they are closed on Mondays. If you\u2019re tired of always getting the same type of food for breakfast, this menu gives you the chance to change it up with a large variety of offerings. Some of these include the classics like bacon and eggs, but also sandwiches, waffles, crepes, burgers, even tacos and quesadillas. This is another place where the prices are very reasonable and the quality is up to standard, making it a solid choice for your next breakfast out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding new places to eat can be hard, so let me do the vetting process for you. If you haven\u2019t tried all four of these spots yet, I encourage you to give them a shot. These restaurants are not ranked in any particular order in this list, but they have all proven to be reliable contenders for the best breakfast locations in Cortland based on my experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
