Goldie's Café
245 Feeney Wy, Ithaca, NY
Crema's Take
“This Ithaca spot opens late and stays open longer than most, making it a reliable refuge for students and night owls who need both caffeine and substance. The real draw is their thoughtful sandwich roster—think green goddess, French dip, and portabella melt—paired with legitimately good pastries like those notorious chocolate chip muffins that people reminisce about years after graduating. If you can time your visit to dodge the occasional lunch rush, you'll find a genuinely welcoming place where the cold brew hits and the food actually tastes like someone cared.”

Cheesecake muffin is Diabolical . Just get the chocolate chip.
Ordering ahead made it a fast pick up. Food was hot and had a decent flavor for a quick sandwich. Ice coffee was also worth getting
I graduated five years ago and now I still think about those delicious sandwiches! I wonder if they still have the green goddess, French dip, portabella melt, BLT… I love it all!
good food but be prepared for long lines and wait time. also they ALWAYS skimp on whipped cream or don’t completely fill the cup with coffee- pictures are from separate instances when I got caramel frappes
The sandwiches are actually quite good. I like that it is open for a long time so if I miss the usual lunch time and can still grab something to eat. Also there is rarely much of a queue so it is perfect for something fast. The Big Red Barn also has sandwiches but it takes them longer to make them, in my experience. The view from the physics building, inside of which Goldie's is situated, if fantastic. Really a pleasure to eat here.
