Popular spot in Canandaigua brings back Mexican street food

Not that Star Cider ever has in its going on seven years in operation, but the return of Mexican street food to the Canandaigua cidery last fall not only served as somewhat of a reunion for staff and customers, but has sparked a shared creativity for food, drink and special events heading into 2026.

Castillo Lara was here back when Neno’s Gourmet Mexican Street Food operated at the cidery. Customers missed that style of food and wanted it back, said Star Cider co-owner Cortni Stahl.
