Seasons restaurant in the Windham Mountain resort is the best way to go for quality food on mountain. The cafeteria is TERRIBLE. While Season is pricier than the cafeteria below it, it is definitely worth the extra dollars for the better service, more room, and better quality food. However, it’s probably not ideal for grabbing a quick bite in between runs (our lunch meal took us about an hour to complete). The atmosphere is livelier and probably not suitable for smaller children (it was mostly adults when we went). It does get crowded during the peak lunch hours so expect a wait. We went around 2:30PM and were seat right away. The menu is extensive so it is sure to suit even the pickiest eaters in your group. The servers are all friendly and the food comes out quickly. The food was also above average and the pricing, while more than the cafeteria, is still reasonable. For one entrée and one drink I paid $20 including tax and tip.

I like the old fashioned cash register they use that has been there for 50 plus years. Great service, tasty food.

Nana Gail's Cafe

Reviewed By rowdylil

....this cute and clean breakfast/lunch spot today. On street parking and walked in, sat ourselves and got waited on promptly. There were specials listed on the white board next to the kitchen. Hubby opted for the special beef stew w/buttered roll and I ordered the homemade chicken soup and half of a hot pastrami samdwich. All came out quickly and was fresh, hot, and best of all, home made. Bathroom (unisex) was clean.Overall, five stars. We will definitely go back!

The food was delicious. I had scallops and shrimp in a rich butter sauce but it wasn't overwhelming it was just right. Everyones food was quit enjoyable. The menu has an unique flare to it! We truly enjoyed the old fashion ambiance of the hotel and restaurants front porch. We will be back.

Captain's Inn Point Lookout

Reviewed By David256

The Captain brought back the $19.99 Monday Prime Rib Special. This is available every Monday for an unbelievable price. Becky was our server, very attentive and courteous. My wife and I had the Pot Stickers for an appetizer. We both had the Prime Rib. Mine was a perfect medium and my wife chose a medium-rare. Both were excellent meals with garlic mashed potatoes, vegetables and lemon cake for dessert. When most restaurants are closed on Mondays, take a short trip up the mountain for a great meal. Also the spectacular views from the restaurant were beautiful.

Prime Steakhouse

Reviewed By off2nsb

Staying virtually across the street at Beds on Clouds, my wife and I strolled into the Prime Steakhouse. Great choice!Starting by sharing apps, I chose a special, a portobello mushroom stuffed with crabmeat and topped with melted mozzarella. Outstanding! My wife chose fresh tomato with fresh mozzarella and balsamic dressing. All was very fresh. The salads were nice sized, fresh ingredients and my Golden Italian dressing was very good For entrees, I had sole stuffed with crabmeat and my wife stuffed shrimp. Both were excellent. Our server, Julia was very pleasant and helpful. She offered us quite a few specials and while it seems unusual to go to a steakhouse and order fish, we enjoyed our meals and will definitely return if our travels bring us back to Windham. There were plenty of additional choices that would be nice to try.

Reviewed By FromJersey123

My sweetheart and I enjoyed a nice meal our first night in the Catskills. The penne with vodka sauce was fair. It was tasty, but not anything special. We shared a chicken marsala too. That was also tasty, but not unique, exceptionally good or memorable. So, if you're looking for good service with a decent, Italian meal in a casual setting, consider Mill Rock Restaurant. However, don't have high expectations. I've had better Italian food, but I've also had much worse. So, I guess this place was average. However, the waiter was a nice young man and he worked hard and was quite pleasant.

We have been coming to Chicken Run for over 5 years since we started frequenting the Windham, Catskill area. We have enjoyed dine-in experiences as well as take out. The food is always great as well as the service and hospitality. The outside dining/lounging area is beautifully landscaped and well maintained. There’s something for everyone outside. It’s also perfect for just lounging by the fire to keep warm or toasting s’mores. We love it so much that we decided to have our wedding reception there. We had a small outdoor, country wedding on a mountaintop a few towns over in Prattsville. Having our reception at Chicken Run was the perfect way to celebrate with our families. Right from the beginning Cathy, the manager put our minds at ease and handled all of the details for us. She was also so helpful in giving us multiple recommendations for outside services such as flowers, wedding cake etc. We couldn’t have done it without her! We also had the pleasure of having our favorite server, Melanie accommodate us throughout our reception. She was truly amazing!They both made sure everything was perfect and that we had everything we needed! All of our guests had an amazing time and enjoyed the food. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank you again Chicken Run(Cathy & Melanie)! See you soon! XO Lori & Ray Odabashian

Add a side of Bacon if your wild!Lol. My daughter had a stack of blueberry pancakes she liked. They served pure maple syrup which was a delightful first. Arguably the best breakfast and novelty store in Windham!Hi Elisha You picked my favorite breakfast. The banana pecan french toast was created by my wife Natasha, along with the rest of our delicious menu. I definitely go with the bacon.
