Where to eat in Liverpool, NY

Downtown Syracuse skyline, near Syracuse Grand in Liverpool, NY

Liverpool, NY may be a small village, but it punches well above its weight on dining. Here are ten places our front-desk team sends guests to most often — every one within a quick drive of the Syracuse Grand.

Classic Central New York

Heid's of Liverpool

A 105-year-old hot dog stand on Oswego Street. Hofmann franks, German potato salad, root beer floats. A Syracuse-area institution.

Limp Lizard BBQ

Smoked brisket, ribs, and pulled pork in a relaxed bar setting. The mac & cheese is a love letter.

Italian & pizza

Angotti's Family Restaurant

Generations-old red-sauce Italian, big portions, warm service. Make a reservation on Friday and Saturday nights.

The Brick Oven Bistro

Wood-fired pizza and house-made pastas in a cozy brick-walled dining room.

Pavone's Pizza

Classic CNY-style pizza done right. Quick to-go from the hotel.

Brunch & coffee

Mother's Cupboard

Famous for the Frittata Challenge, a five-pound omelet. Even if you're not attempting it, the breakfast is exceptional.

Recess Coffee

Locally roasted, friendly baristas, plenty of seating for laptops. A favorite stop on the way to a meeting.

Waterfront & date night

Otro Cinco

Modern Mexican on Hanover Square in downtown Syracuse — a 12-minute drive. Inventive cocktails, beautifully presented food.

Bull & Bear Roadhouse

Reliable steakhouse just off the lake. Solid wine list, white tablecloths, dressy-casual.

Pastabilities

A Syracuse institution in Armory Square — handmade pasta, the famous spicy hot tomato oil, and a buzzing dining room. Worth the 15-minute drive from Liverpool.
