LOCAL CRAFTS, DELICIOUS HOME-MADE FOOD & ONE-OF-A-KIND FINDS

We care about our community by offering a retail venue where local farms and craftspeople can sell their high quality hand-crafted products at affordable prices.

Our breakfast sandwiches are popular! Order ahead at (518) 879-9442.

Delicious breakfasts to go.

We have breakfast sandwiches for every taste and appetite. Our “Basic” is piled high with bacon, ham or sausage, 2 eggs, cheese and your favorite condiment all on a fresh-baked kaiser roll. If you prefer vegetarian or gluten free we have delicious options for you too. Our veggie sandwich is loaded with peppers & onions and we’ll make your gluten free roll on the spot.

Really Hungry? Our “Widow-Maker” is a lavish meat feast. Imagine bacon and ham and sauage and 2 eggs and double cheese exploding from a fresh-baked kaiser roll.

Bored with the basic? Try your sandwich on a bagel or croissant and add a hash brown.

Baked Goods

We make a wide selection of delicious treats from scratch including pies, mini-sweet loaves, fudge, quiche, cookies, cinnamon rolls, scones, and pastries. And our stocked pastry case is a delicious solution to that sudden sweet tooth. These can also be pre-ordered online or at the store.

Three of us were biking the Erie Canal bike trail today on a 100 mile bike trek when one in our party got a flat. Stopped at the Hungry Chicken Country Store where both the owner and a customer were incredibly helpful. Trina was kind enough to run us into the closest bike shop and in very short order, we were on our way again. Thanks so much!

Dawn was very friendly and informative. She took her time answering all of my questions about the different jams and preserves as well as the delicious sandwiches that they make. The "Widow Maker" is STACKED!

Just visited this place. Awesome breakfast sandwiches. So tasty and worth a stop by if you haven't!

This place is so! Cool! There are a lot of locally made crafts & the brownies,fudge and is super! Everyone has always been so friendly! It is always easy for me to shop for my Granddaughters!

Cute little country store located across from the Kiawanis Park in Rotterdam Junction. I've stopped in a few times for coffee, they have the Capital City Roasters coffee which has always been fresh and it's nice and strong. I had a breakfast sandwich made to order: ham, egg, and cheese on a roll which was awesome!!! It was also huge! They have a variety of bagels, danish, they also have pies and pies to order which I will be trying out. They have fresh produce from their farm as well as some of the essentials if you're across the street spending the day boating or bike riding. Plenty of parking and the staff are very friendly. It's nice to have something in the Junction for a change of pace and I wish the owners the best!!
