Things To Do

Finger Lakes Welcome Center

A great place to stop in for some food, wine, and info about the Finger Lakes. Located right on the lake, you can take a walk along the water from here and find a playground and Long Pier ice cream not far from this location. Plus you can take a picture by the I ❤️ NY sign. Saturday Farmer’s Market from 8-1:30 too!

Wineries

PLEASE NOTE: If your party is around 6-8 people, you should call ahead of time for a reservation. If your party is bigger than that, you may need to split into smaller groups. Most wineries do not accept reservations for more than 6 or 8 people. The policy is often listed on the website.

Billsboro Winery

Ravines Wine Cellars

Located just up the road from Alie’s parents house, we will be getting married here with just our immediate families on Thursday, August 1st. A beautiful winery inside an old barn. Make sure to try the Maximilien!

Fox Run Vineyards

Belhurst Castle and Winery

Not the best wine but you can’t beat this view. Definitely worth a stop for a drink overlooking the lake. You can arrive by boat if you want, too!

Zugibe Vineyards - Wine With A View.

Beautiful setting and great wine!

Miles Winery

A bit farther down the lake, about 30 minutes south from Geneva, but this is the only winery with a bar on a dock. Do a tasting in the mansion, ask about the haunted history, and then walk down to the dock for a drink on the water. You can also arrive by boat!

Three Brothers Wineries and Estates

3 wineries and a brewery in one location. While some wines are on the sweeter side, they do have dryer options, beer tastings, and a soda tasting too!

Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyard

Breakfast

Bagels and Cakes by Club 86

The best place in town for breakfast or lunch. Owned by the Legotts - close friends with the Venutis who also own Club 86 and Torrey Park.

Monaco's Coffee

Awesome coffee shop walkable for anyone staying downtown. A little bit of history - this location used to be Monaco’s Grocery and owned by Alie’s relatives. Monaco is Alie’s great grandmother’s maiden name. When Alie’s high school classmate bought the space, he asked the family for their blessing to use the name.

Water St. Cafe

Great breakfast spot downtown, but heads up there can be a wait on the weekends. Might be worth sending one of your party ahead to put your name in.

Captain's Cafe

Great breakfast spot downtown, but heads up there can be a wait on the weekends. Might be worth sending one of your party ahead to put your name in.
