Food scene

Remlik’s Grille & Oyster Bar (Walking Distance – Closed Sundays) Remlik’s is widely considered among locals as the nicest restaurant in town. It is the perfect place for a celebratory dinner. It is located in the Kilmer building and provides ample parking, incredible ambiance and historical architecture. I highly recommend the Remlik’s roll and/or anything from their Oyster Bar if you are interested in sea food. You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. They also have outdoor seating if the weather is nice.

PS Restaurant (Walking Distance – Closed Sunday-Tuesday) PS Downtown provides a French Thai fusion menu that has been popular in town since 1984. PS displays a casual yet elegant atmosphere combined with a phenomenal menu. I especially enjoy the scallops and the bacon wrapped shrimp! The walk to PS is right down Court Street and will take you past some of the most beautiful and historical buildings in town.

Social On State (Walking Distance – closed Mondays): “Social” is my vote for the tastiest food in Binghamton. The head chef, Jay, has implemented a creative menu sure to have something for everyone. Enjoy sizeable and filling main course entrees or share plates from their tapas menu. This modern, upscale restaurant is one of my favorites in town to sit down for a nice dinner. They have a large bar if you are interested in a cocktail and their patio seating is very enjoyable when the weather cooperates. Their Lobster Mac n Cheese and New York Strip are two of my favorites.

2) Stone Fox Pizza (Walkable – Closed Mondays) Come here for the atmosphere. There is a great outdoor two-level patio to enjoy some fresh air while eating a wood fired pizza. The upper level has a fire place that is great when the weather is a bit cooler. The pizza gets mixed reviews. Some people love it, some say its average, but they have a lot of pizza toppings / options to choose from, the prices are good, and the atmosphere is fun. They often have live music to enjoy as well.

205 Dry (Walkable – Closed Sundays and Mondays) 205 is an upscale speakeasy that serves the best cocktails in town. To enter the space, you will be faced with what looks to be a bookshelf in the front entry. After looking closely, you’ll notice a door handle hidden between books on one of the middle shelves. Pull this handle and behind the book shelf you’ll see a fantastically themed cocktail bar seemingly straight out of the early 1900’s. They also have great food!

Craft Bar & Kitchen (Walkable – Open Daily) Craft is a great place to watch the game, get a drink and hang out. Expect music, friendly bar tenders, and a fun atmosphere that USUALLY doesn’t get too crowded. They have great drinks and great food. I like the sushi slider. They are known all over town for their milkshakes as well.
