“ Such a great food find in Seneca Falls! We stopped here for breakfast and the vibes were everything. The Marie Cure(ie) and Suzie Sunrise smoothies were fresh and delicious! We had the bagels, breakfast potatoes, and special carrot cake pancakes. Service was quick and easy - recommend stopping in to sit down and savor your treats! Can’t wait to stop back when we’re back in town. ”
“ Great little place for breakfast or lunch. It's a woman-owned Cafe named after the 19th amendment, granting women the right to vote. The restaurant definately honors the passion, determination, and devotion of women’s rights activists – especially those of the first Women’s Rights Convention in Seneca Falls. Walking around the space I could see the walls are adorned with modern, chic portraits including those of Susan B. Anthony, Amelia Bloomer, Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Harriet Tubman and Martha Coffin Wright. Cute coffee signs around, nice bright space. I had the chicken salad sandwich and it was some of the best I've had. They make all their desserts on premise, offer several coffee drinks, they also cut all the sandwich meats in house - everything was very fresh. Atmosphere was fun and upbeat. I'd go again. ”
“ Cute and meaningful atmosphere and decor. Good location. Delicious coffees- The Golden Girl was unique and yummy. Breakfast items are simple and just okay- veggie bfast burrito is spicy! and other bfast sandwiches could use a little more taste and ingredients. Baked goods looked great. ”

“ Visiting a nearby college and needed a quick breakfast. Ordered online and picked up a breakfast sandwich and a smoothie. Both were fresh, tasty and outstanding and the place was warm and welcoming! The pastry case was crazy tempting too! This place is definitely a gem in the middle of nowhere! ”
“ Accidentally put in the wrong date for a cake order and they were super understanding in accommodating my request for a change. Made a beautiful and delicious themed birthday cake that everyone at the party enjoyed (honestly one of the best chocolate cakes I've ever had -- and the cannoli cream filling was AMAZING!) I didn't spend much time in the shop, but the bathrooms were very clean and well-stocked with feminine supplies which is just the kind of thoughtfulness you'd expect from a women-owned business. The staff I interacted with were all very friendly and everything in the display case looked great. I would definitely go back (or frequently, if I were a local). Thank you! ”
“ Cafe 19 offers amazing food and drinks that are freshly made, with a clean and inviting atmosphere both inside and outside. The staff is incredibly friendly and provides exceptional service. A must-visit for anyone looking for a delightful dining experience! ”
“ Wonderful Cafe! Everything looked good on the menu, the Everything Avocado Toast was a great choice. Perfectly toasted bread topped with generous avocado, onion, tomato, well-cooked scrambled egg and feta cheese. The Chai Latte was served at the right temp for sipping and tasted great - one of the best I’ve had. Pricing is reasonable. Staff are friendly. It was peak breakfast time but ordering was a breeze and the food was brought to my table in no time. The place is well-appointed with ample and comfortable seating; and clean facilities. It is a must when in the area. And don’t resist the sweet treats! ”
