THE WAIT IS OVER

You’ve been asking. You’ve been counting down. And now, it’s finally happening. Castlewood Cafe is officially opening its second location in New Hartford on February 18th!

This isn’t just any spot—they’re moving into the familiar building on Seneca Turnpike that used to be home to Boil Shack, Denny’s, and Ponderosa over the years.

Doors swing open at 7:00 AM, so set those alarms early if you want a front-row seat to all the breakfast magic.
