"I read about Grapevine Farms on the Haunted NY FB page and figured I would stop in when in the nearby area. It's in a pretty isolated area but was not a bad ride from Latham. They have references to the haunted history throughout the store and restaurant but we didn't find anyone that wanted to engage about it. It definitely has a very haunted feel especially upstairs in the shops there was a heavy atmosphere. The shops were fun but way overpriced. The sales woman who helped us was super nice but was really trying to up sell things like glittery jewelry that was just grossly overpriced so that was a bit of a turn off. I did buy a few items but you could easily break the bank, so to speak, as they do have many shops all over the property. The wine cellar was locked. You need to ask an employee to let you in. We were going to visit after lunch but that was such a poor experience that we just left. The cafe is okay. It was very busy when we were there in the early afternoon and they clearly need more staff. We ordered the salmon salad. This was very good. We also tried the barley soup special. Very bland. I had to add a fair bit of pepper and salt to make it taste like anything. I also ordered the quiche special of the day (along with a salad side). The quiche was so overcooked it was like scrambled eggs. I'm surprised they sold it like that with how overdone it was. My dining partner ate it as no one ever came back to check on us. We waited forever for the check. We even piled our plates up and tried to make contact each time any staff walked by and no one stopped. Finally, they were offering a nearby table dessert and remembered us and asked us for dessert but we just wanted the bill at that point. Overpriced, not great quality and way too long to sit there finished. I wouldn't ever return to their cafe."
