About The Strand Café

The Strand Café is delighted to welcome every guest with thoughtful hospitality and a distinctive culinary experience. Located inside the Canopy Hotel in Downtown Ithaca, the Strand offers a relaxed yet refined atmosphere that feels equally inviting to locals and travelers alike.

Our menus highlight thoughtfully prepared, approachable dishes served from morning through evening — from comforting breakfast favorites to creative lunch offerings and elevated dinner plates. At the heart of our kitchen is a stone pizza oven, allowing us to serve authentic Neapolitan-style pizzas fired at 750 degrees alongside handcrafted pastas, fresh salads, and classic entrées.

The Canopy Bar complements the dining experience with precision-crafted cocktails made from high-quality spirits, outstanding local beer selections, and a curated wine list that celebrates the Finger Lakes region. Whether stopping in for a casual meal or settling in for an evening out, guests can expect warm service, quality ingredients, and a welcoming sense of place.
