The Yard of Ale is a casual, fine-dining restaurant located in the western Finger Lakes region. Our mission is simply “to make people happy,” and we strive to do so with quality service and extraordinary food.
We feature a diverse dinner menu, as well as featured entrees each evening showcasing specialty and seasonal ingredients Chef Brian Simmons has ordered for the week. We serve dinner Tuesday through Sunday, and a tavern menu is available for customers in our bar wishing for a more casual meal. Lunch service is available only for larger groups. The upper level of this historic building includes a banquet room and smaller dining room. A wide selection of meal combinations for sit-down or buffet service is offered. We also provide off-site catering. Please see our catering page for more information.
