Bartlett House - (Near Ghent, NY)

2 /5 Alexandra Moga: Dear Bartlett House, take the breakfast quesadilla off your menu or make a sincere effort to redeem this horrible, morning-ruining plate of awful food. I can’t speak for other menu items but this one is truly awful. It says there’s pinto beans in it but all I saw was a slimy film of grey residue. You could choke on the rubbery excess of cold melted cheese and barely-salted eggs. It’s so bad you guys. Add seasoning. Cumin. Coriander. Anything to actually be worthy of “Mexican”. Actually crisp up the tortilla. Add a real portion of seasoned beans. Salt the eggs! Do something. Anything. But do not ruin your good reputation with this disgusting menu item. It’s truly upsetting.

5 /5 Sarah Trop: From the design to the baked goods and the flowers on your way in... this place is a dream!!! We stop anytime we are in the area! My favorite is the farmers breakfast sandwich and howls owl milkshake! If there were 100 star, Id give it that many!

5 /5 Cheryl Geerhold: The food has never disappointed (they poach a perfect egg for their eggs Benedict, and I’m particular about that). Their baked goods are amazing. There can be a wait for coffee drinks as there is only room for one barista, but they do a good job. Sometimes the clientele skews rude weekend folks, but overall, it’s a nice place to go.

5 /5 Jackie Adler: I planned a quick stop here before heading to Art Omi for a solo adventure. There have been so many great reviews that I was excited to check the place out for myself. Customer service was excellent - friendly and helpful staff. The building itself is beautiful! There is inside dining as well as outdoor seating on the deck, which looks out over the flowers in bloom. You can feel the history of this place in the best way possible. On this day, it was just a quick grab and go for me, but I look forward to coming back and time to enjoy a meal. I had to try the hashbrown, which was served with both a homemade ketchup and a homemade aioli. I had never tried aioli with a hashbrown before - and it was delicious! Chai tea was perfectly made as well. I brought the pastries home for a later treat, and they were excellent as well. I will make sure to stop here again this summer.

5 /5 Tim and Lisa Quinlan: Incredibly friendly staff. My husband is a hot fried chicken sandwich junkie and he said BHs was the best hes ever had. Didnt think I would ever write a review about a salad but just wow! The seasonal (greens, walnuts, apples, cheddar, etc.) with a lemon vin was so amazingly tasty, fresh, clean and filling. It was so big it took of us to finish. I have biscuits for tomorrow morning and they look delicious. Seating might be an issue at prime times - we were incredibly lucky to have a picture perfect late fall day with abundant sunshine so we grabbed a picnic table (they bring the food out to you). The line was a bit long but it moved quickly. You can definitely tell whos local and whos got an attitude and thinks locals are rubes. Just ignore them, shoo away their negativity and enjoy a beautiful day with kind people and delicious food.
