The Kopper Keg in Cuba, NY is a great dive! Exit 92 off 17/86. Easy to get to, Main St. Cuba. If you want something a little nicer, I recommend Sprague in Portville. Also exit 92, but a few miles on 305.

While in Cuba, stop and the cheese shop and pick up some salt rising bread and cheese for the ride...

re: mom2
I wouldn't get off the highway for Blue Dolphin or Chris's Diner (although the latter is indeed a good breakfast greasy spoon). That is a nice scenic drive, but the eating isn't great. I spend a lot of time in the Binghamton area and about the only place enjoy is a little Korean place called Han-Am on the eastbound Vestal Parkway (rt. 434) hidden next to a KFC just west of the SUNY campus.
If you like beer, you should stop at the Southern Tier Brewing Co. in Lakewood (near Jamestown). They make some really great stuff and have a pub (don't know if it serves food). Ellicottville Brewing is also in the area and might be worth a stop - they do serve food.

The Village Tavern in Hammondsport is cool

Chris's Diner on State Street in Binghamton is my absolute favorite "greasy spoon" diner. The food is high quality and the service is great. Everything that is supposed to be hot comes up hot. Open from like 5:00 AM - 4:00 PM, breakfast all day. You did not mention dates. Chris's will be closed for 3 weeks in August for family travel.

You can't go wrong with their combination seafood platter - king crab legs, shrimp, crab cake and their awesome broiled tomatoes. I know seafood at a diner isn't the first thing one would usually pick, but Blue Dolphin's seafood is some of the freshest & best I've had anywhere!! Definitely go there if a seafood craving hits!
