“Excellent. 5 stars. Can’t wait to go back”

“Found this spot on Google while I was upstate and thought it was worth the 20 mins drive. It was!!! The pastries are delicious, service was great and tons of options to choose from. I loved it so much I even bought a t-shirt and 2 dog baguette toys for my pups. If you’re in the Hudson Valley area, and hungry (… and rich! lol), def make a stop here”

“Great place and food is great”

“We were out and about in Hudson today and we were a little hungry so we stopped into kitties and I had probably one of the best egg sandwiches I ever had. I highly recommend the egg sandwich with sauerkraut. The vibe in there was very comfortable iced coffee Was nice and strong. They had a great bakery selection and a lot of local products. So if you’re coming out of the train station in Hudson, I say swing by kitties you won’t be sorry.”

“Had a fantastic meal at Via Cassia tonight. The black kale salad and the squid ink pasta were exceptional. Serious top-notch restaurant in Hudson. Not to be missed!”

“My kids and I visited here for lunch. It was such a cozy spot filled with the aroma of delicious food. We were instantly greeted with smiling faces as soon as we walked in. My kids had grilled cheese, I had the chicken salad sandwich. So good! Looking forward to visiting again during warmer weather, so we can enjoy the outdoor seating too!”

“For the sake of full disclosure I’ve worked with the owners for over twenty years in the television industry. They have brought the same dedication and amazing attention to detail that has resulted in their tremendously successful careers, to their wonderful new restaurant. They have thought of EVERY detail from the whimsical videos playing in the rest rooms to the sugar cubes for your espresso... they have missed nothing. The menu is inventive and perfectly executed... Watermelon Gazpacho?! Whoa! The unique presentation of the Calamari appetizer was wonderful. Bouillabaisse?! You don’t find that as the seafood option very often... what a treat. Others in my group enjoyed perfectly cooked steaks and the slightly smoky Mac & Cheese. Of course the cheese plates are spectacular. This is one of those meals you won’t forget! But wait did I mention the speakeasy downstairs? The perfectly appointed room features an amazing menu of craft cocktails AND six draft beers to choose from... including Ommegang Rare Vos... you simply don’t find that on tap anywhere!! Finally a word about the service. It was impeccable, perfectly attentive without being stuffy. Chris and Ellen have created a destination restaurant!”

“This restaurant is exceptional in every capacity! I'm hardly a foodie; I eat very simple foods during the week (eggs, real butter, olive oil, buttermilk, whey protein, Greek yogurt, etc), so when I go out to eat, I seek both a nutritious menu, more extensive meals of variety, while allowing myself to indulge too. Everything about this restaurant is excellent, and I highly recommend it! I was there Late Afternoon on Sunday, which I concluded to be an ideal time to go. Continued Success, and Thank You!”

“It’s truly the best of the best”

“Literally some of the best beer I’ve ever had in my life and I’ve had a lot of beer. Beautiful tap room and humble owners and caretakers of this fine establishment. You’re crazy if you disagree.”

“Stopped here after our hike and the beer really hit the spot. Their pilsner is so refreshing and the vibe is really nice, super spacious. They don’t sell food except for light snacks but there is a food truck nearby.”

“The food and service were amazing! Will definitely return!”

“This is one of my favorite spots to go to for great food and the atmosphere is always so comfy and inviting. I’m in there at least once or twice a week.”

“We had a hard time finding the place at first. but we're glad we did. :) Good beer, good vibe and the food was delicious. We had a smashburger and fries, the deviled eggs, and the hand cut chicken bites which I loved and were served with the tastiest ranch sauce I've ever had. Will definitely come back again next time we're in the area.”

“We had a most extraordinary Sunday brunch at The Maker Cafe yesterday. We were there by chance, around 1 pm, and are so glad we found this lovely spot with a most attentive staff. We're not spring chickens, and we much appreciated the help getting seated, the delicious butternut squash soup, the fabulous eggplant alla parmgiana sandwich, the broccoli salad. Thanks to you all - we loved it, and we look forward to coming to the restaurant some evening soon.”

“Tommy whipped up delicious Old Fashions, kept us entertained, and was quick with service and assistance. He’s a 10/10 bartender- knowledgeable, talented, and fun! Awesome drinks, vibes, and service.”

“My husband and I had our 90-guest wedding at the Vanderbilt on 6/8/24 and it could not have been any better. We found the Vanderbilt on Airbnb when looking for a unique wedding venue, visited it in January of 2023, and booked it instantly- didn’t even see another venue. As stated in previous reviews, Henrietta made the planning process as easy as possible. We communicated mainly via email, but she allowed us to come to the space as often as we needed (I think between both of our families we were there 3 times). She also provided a list of vendors that previous wedding parties had used at the Vanderbilt, which I used for our planner, tent company, shuttle company and photographer (all great). When it came time for the tasting, we were provided with an extensive menu of food and drinks curated by Matt. We were blown away by the food. As the wedding day approached, Henrietta was easy to communicate with and flexible. She helped us plan a thorough rainy day plan B, and was the bearer of good news when she called me 2 days prior to tell me the weather looked good and we were going with plan A. The weekend of the wedding was incredible. Our families stayed in the 8 rooms upstairs Friday and Saturday night. Henrietta and Matt were in early on Saturday to get everything prepared. Their team was incredible. After the ceremony, Henrietta greeted us with champagne and a congratulations. When cocktail hour ended and we realized we were so busy that we didn’t even eat our appetizers, Henrietta put together a plate for us and brought it over. I’ve heard from a number of guests that the food was the best they’ve had at a wedding, and I agree. It’s important to note that the staff was also FUN to have around. Bartenders and servers interacted with guests and kept the energy light and fun. The next morning, Matt prepared a great breakfast (much needed) for those staying at the Vanderbilt, even including some leftovers of our banana pudding dessert from the night before. Now let’s quickly talk about the space. The Vanderbilt Lakeside is the most unique space I’ve ever seen. Each room has its own personality and is decorated meticulously and beautifully. I only had to bring in decorations for the tables, as the venue itself was already perfect. The deck was a perfect fit for our 90-person dinner. The lawn, outdoor bar, and lawn games were a hit for those who wanted to chill out rather than dance. The Bar room was the perfect size for our musicians and a dance floor. The rooms upstairs are clean, all about the same size, and all have their own bathrooms to make for a comfortable stay. Overall, I cannot recommend the Vanderbilt enough. We’re racking our brains for an excuse to host another event there. Henrietta and Matt are incredible to work with!”

“Upper Depot hosted an informal get together for graduates of Claverack Elementary School this past Friday. The food, drinks, and staff were all awesome. I wouldn't hesitate to hold an event at this facility in the future, or just have a beer or drink (and some food) after a long day. Thank you, thank you, thank you.”

“Great, food great service friendly people food is tasty one of the best one in Columbia County”

“Cute place to order sandwiches and subs from. Food is good here and cooked right before you. You can eat them at a table near the library across the store! If you need a snack after visiting the high falls. - this is the right place.”

“The informal, relaxed cafe made it easy choice for family and friends to brunch. Menu is great, made on-site and biscuits choices are great, for breakfasts and lunch, parking is easy & Bubba is a casual place, close by Center Hudson and main routes. We recommend highly!”

“Great atmosphere & amazing food”

“An absolute breath of fresh air on Main Street in Catskill. Citiot needs a love button and a constellation of stars in recognition of how very outstanding it is at every level. Looking for art, classy curation, culture, real coffee, a workspace for creators and makers, and a smile to greet you ... CITIOT is all that and more.”

“While passing through for a short visit to the UAlbany campus, we researched some healthy and affordable lunch options nearby. We are so glad we found Simone's! This place is so cute on the outside, and fast, affordable, and delicious on the inside! The portions were huge, the food was fresh, and the prices were competitive with chains like Chipotle or Panera. 5/5!”

“My family and I highly recommend this place. The staff is amazing and the food is always great. I went in there this morning and tried “The Trucker” sandwich…best…sandwich ever. So worth every penny we send here! I cannot say enough good things about this place.”

“Veggie rice bowl with crispy tofu was one of the best things I've ever eaten!”
