The Chanticleer is one of the oldest bars in downtown Ithaca, located at the corner of State and Cayuga Streets, and has been a beloved gathering place for locals and students since its opening in 1946. Known for its iconic wooden bar and vintage decor, it has retained much of its original charm over the decades, becoming a fixture in the Ithaca community.
Recently, rumors sparked about the potential closure of the Chanticleer following its listing for sale, but the business is set to remain open for the foreseeable future. The Leonardo family, who have owned the bar since its inception, is focused on finding a buyer who will continue the tradition of this historic watering hole.
