OT: Hammondsport, NY Coolest American Small Town?

so many people think skaneateles is the town of the fingerlakes, although quaint it is not user friendly, hammondsport has much better feel
 
Love Hammondsport. They used to have a Marda Gra in February ( bunches of snow) ,where people got dressed up and visited all the wineries...Spend lots of time on the lake...It even has my favorite resturant (open from spring to November)
 
There the Glenn Curtiss Aviation Museum in Hammondsport. Good way to waste a few hours.
 
I grew up in Corning but my parents now live in Hammy. Maloneys Pub, Village Tavern, solid group of wineries and the best lake in the Finger Lakes.
 
Dr. K Frank, Hermann-Wiemer (my favorite), Billsboro, Anthony Road, Red Tail Ridge are some very good wineries.
 
Been to Hammondsport a number of times while meandering around the state on business. I always liked the town, but it seems like it's kind of a secret once you get out of the immediate area.
 
I loved growing up on Keuka Lake. I was on the Penn Yan side tho. Fox Run is another nice winery.
 
Keuka Lake Brewing company- went there two years ago and had their stuff again recently. The second time, it was really good. Just up the hill from Hammondsport.

One of my best friends lives in Branchport right on the lake near the State Park. Stella's in Penn Yan is our favorite spot to get cheap breakfast to recover from a long evening.
 
Your friend go to PYA? I prolly know em. Where is Stella's? We always hit up the Wagner for breakfast after a long night. Or if you want the best breakfast ever, cheap, great people, try Angels on main st. My picture is on the wall :cool:

Wow...I'm losing my mind. Meant Angel's. Got my favorite breakfast joints mixed up. So good and so cheap.
 
Angels is amazing, I have never seen the owner without a smile on her face, Its always one of my first stops in town, even just to say hi. Stop number two, brew house lol

Yep...forgot to mention Fox Run. I have friends with a house right on Seneca Lake less than a 1/4 mi. from Anthony Road winery. Try to make it up there every summer.
 
Hazlitt's Red Cat. My wife and her friends back home go nuts for that stuff
 
Nice old railroad station on the old Bath & Hammondsport, assuming it's still there. And I've got a nice bottle of Dr. Konstantin Frank's finest waiting for a proper celebratory moment (like a NC?).-VBOF

I lived in Penn Yan for awhile. Nothing to do there except for drinking. Nice little town and nice lake.
 
My family owns a place in Dundee, about 15 mins from Keuka Lake. Never been to Hammondsport though. I might have to check it out this coming summer.
 
did you find a regular bar that you liked? How long ago?

Jeez. I lived there in the early 80's for about 1.5 years. There was one popular dive that we went to shoot pool and hang out with all the rednecks. But there were a few other places that we went to also that were a little nicer. I'm sure it's changed over the last 25 to 30 years ago.
 
Ahh good ol dundee lol dollar beer Tuesday's at the VFW!

Haha never been there. The house is actually an old farmhouse in Lakemont. I think the only places I've actually been to in Dundee are the Classic Cafe and the Shurfine grocery store. Maybe one of these days I'll get over to the Pour House!
