Wonderful space, well stocked with all kinds of delicious snacks and drinks that you can take to go or enjoy in the cafe. The staff were so friendly and really helpful, everyone really wants you to enjoy your time in the cafe. Their menu had some incredible staples and a handful of specials that were really tasty. The beef noodle soup was comforting, perfectly seasoned, and delicious. It was the perfect thing to warm me up on a cool Fall day. Their chicken katsu sando was a real treat with a tangy mayo and soft bread. The dumplings were sooo good and everything was very reasonably priced! Their drinks were perfectly crafted, I had the matcha and it was amazing. Can’t wait to come back again!

Absolutely fabulous food - I never imagined getting authentic ramen in such a tiny town. We came back at the end of our trip because we needed another dose of Lucky Catskills!

Wow so impressed !!!!! We had dumplings, the chive cake, and two specials - chicken katsu sando + Taiwanese beef noodle soup. First of all the staff was so attentive and nice! Even though it’s an order at the counter cafe they checked in on us to make sure everything was ok. The food was INCREDIBLE. I am absolutely in awe of how amazing the flavors were and everything was perfectly seasoned. So so so so highly recommend !!!!

Delicious dumplings and steamed buns! Especially recommend the pork dumplings, custard bun, and Vietnamese coffee. Kind staff, and they also had a fun selection of grocery items.

Food and drink are excellent if not a bit expensive and slow to come out. (neither has stopped me from coming back). Fun little grocery store too! My only qualm is I wish they were open an hour or two later for dinner, and it would be great if there were some simple salads/vegetable sides.

Absolutely delicious! My partner and I stopped for lunch on the way out of the Catskills and we were not disappointed. We both had their drink specials, a strawberry lemonade and an iced strawberry matcha drink, both very good. Then I had the tonkatsu ramen bowl, the broth was amazing! And my partner had the three cut chicken rice bowl, very good and a little spicy. The portions sizes were perfect for lunch.
