Gogo’s Corner Comes Home
The Pocono Record reports that Jay and Alexis Lessig are opening Gogo's Cozy Corner today at 3150 Route 715 in Henryville, the same building that has been feeding the neighborhood since 1990, first as Hallet's Cozy Corner, later as The Cook's Corner.
The name is a tribute to Joanne Lessig, known as "Gogo" to her grandchildren, nieces, and nephews, who died in May 2025. Gogo was a regular at the original Cozy Corner, often calling ahead to check the specials before deciding where to eat. Her handwriting is on the new sign alongside a black squirrel, a nod to something she always said about the animals being special.
"We couldn't not have her be a part of it," Alexis Lessig said. "She would love this."
The couple bought the property this year after an earlier attempt in 2025 fell through, and spent the weeks since closing painting and refreshing the space while keeping the original booths. And some good news for those with gluten intolerance: the menu will also include more gluten-free options than most spots around here offer.
