Danby Food and Drink
1843 Danby Rd, Ithaca, NY
Crema's Take
“Danby Food and Drink feels less like a coffee stop and more like a beloved community gathering spot where the owner Karthic genuinely treats everyone like neighbors. Beyond solid, freshly-prepared comfort food and a thoughtful selection of local and organic groceries, this cozy market-café hybrid offers both hot coffee and cold beer in a space that's equally welcoming whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or settling in for an afternoon of work and connection.”

Love this spot! As a new (part-time) resident of the area, I look forward to the warm service, hot coffee, and cold beer when visiting. The prepared food is always good and fresh. The market has a good assortment of staples and many healthy snacks. I especially appreciate the gluten-free selections for my wife.
Wonderful quaint grocery market, food, & drink one stop shop! Great vibes, with a community oriented feel. Stop in and explore the health centered grocery options, or grab some food or drink to go. In the nice weather there's an great yard, where local musicians play. Kid friendly!
On my frequent trips from South Jersey to Ithaca, a must-stop for me is Danby Food and Drink on NY-96B! The Food, Service, and Atmosphere is 5-Star! Support a small business that totally supports their community and their staff in many, many positive ways!
Lovely cozy place with excellent comfort food and a team who treat you like Mr Rogers-level neighbors. The market is wonderful with a good selection of pantry staples (many local and/or organic) and local fresh produce. The outdoor dining space is a perfect way to spend time in nature during the warmer months - you get a front row view of a lovely open space that is bursting with birds and pollinators.
Super neat little community oriented place that goes out of the way to stock local products. Owner Karthic is a wonderful host. Delicious food, on tap beer, and a well balanced selection of grocery items also. Impressively diverse offerings for a small space. The first of its kind in Danby. Really nice addition to this small community. Stop by and support this endeavor.
