I've only eaten there once, but everyone enjoyed it. The prices were very reasonable. I am not really into brunch and might never go back, but would recommend it to those who are.

The place is small but the food was pretty good. I did have a cheeseburger which was on the small size for the price. It came with chips. They have a lot of sweets to try and all in all I would go back again. Just don't expect a lot of fluff.

We eat breakfast here almost every Satuday. The place to go to feel like family. Good food. Baked goods are made there. Traditional menu with seasonal specials like pumpkin pancakes.

Have lived in town for 4+ years and never been here. Worse yet have complained about a lack of local, quality, affordable places for breakfast. What a pleasant surprise this place was. Went there with 7 others, and everyone very happy with the food. The service was very good and accommodating. Will definitely be back.

the whole reason to go to this restaurant is because of the atmosphere - the waitresses are some of the best in town - they are friendly, prompt and they know there customers - if they do not know you to start, they very likely will before you leave ON THE OTHER HAND order only what you see on the...

We eat at the Lafayette every few months. Sometimes the food is great, sometimes not. It seems to depend greatly on who is working that day. We know that it may vary, and still find it a good breakfast alternative, especially if the friendly waitress and the good cook are there. So, on the right day you will be greeted... More

It was such a warm and homey atmosphere. The food was delicious! It was very relaxing. Many times restaurants have a stressful feel to them, this one had a zero stress environment.

We were passing through Canandaigua early one morning and stopped a man on the street for a recommendation. He did not steer us wrong! I am a breakfast lover, always in search of a great, great breakfast, you know, where the eggs are just that much fluffier..., the offering just a little different .... The Lafayette restaurant is AMAZING! I... More

My boyfriend and I just stayed at the Lafayette Motel. Debbie checked us in and was so sweet and accommodating. She even let us park our boat in the lot after checking out so we could visit the wineries. The room was affordable, clean and comfortable and close to the water. There were two comfortable chairs outside for us to... More
