Spent 4 years in Binghamton and must recommend eating brunch at Crepe Heaven and dinner at Sake Tumi. They are right downtown and have the only authentic crepe's and the best sushi outside of NYC.

I lived here for 3 years and although I would not ever want to LIVE there again if you're already headed through the Southern Tier of New York it's worth a stop. Binghamton and the surrounding municipalities were in essence created by the founding of the Endicott-Johnson shoe factory in the early 1900's drawing a lot of Italian and Polish immigrants to the area which accounts for the AMAZING Italian/Polish restaurants to be found in this tiny town. And that's really all I can vouch for. If you're already headed this way or you live not far from the area it's worth a stop to eat in the 'Little Italy' section of Endicott at Consul's restaurant (the most amazing home-style authentic Italian cuisine you'll find anywhere in the area). The rest of this town is tainted by it's tragic recent history involving chemical dumping into the water supply IBM pulling out and the absence of any major employer in or around this area - in general it's a depressed and depressing town.
