Where to eat 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.
