Restaurants near Haines Falls

“We went to hike Kaaterskill and stopped here twice. Not only was the service fast and the food yummy, but they were so hospitable. The first night they helped us get oriented to the village and gave us a run down of what was open/closed/available. The second day, after a couple issues (had some hiking gear stolen), they fed us on the house. It made our day a little bit better and that’s what life is all about. Highly recommend to anyone passing through. These are some good people all around.”

“We have grown up getting ice cream and going to the Twilight General Store. We will miss the previous family who owned it and are so so very happy that another long-time local family has bought it and is excited about keeping the tradition going. They are so happy and sweet!

Definitely stop at the store- whether for fresh scoop amazing ice cream, adorable souvenirs and cool t-shirts, or the much needed food or beer that you just ran out of!”

“Excellent food and drinks. Great service by Michelle. Highly recommend.”

“You guys were such a great part of my visit to Catskill. Your almond babka was AMAZING and I am still dreaming of it 5 days and 3,000 miles later.”

“5 Stars ⭐️ Sandakan Bake is an absolute gem. The owner is nothing short of amazing — a true artisan whose passion shows in every detail. His pastries are works of art: beautifully rustic, handcrafted, and full of authentic flavor. From the towering whipped-cream-topped key lime pies to the golden, perfectly crinkled pecan pies, everything looks and tastes like it came straight out of a high-end European pastry boutique. The atmosphere he creates is warm, welcoming, and uniquely charming — a mix of farmhouse elegance and old-world bakery magic. Every visit feels personal, and his kindness and professionalism make the experience even sweeter. If you appreciate real craftsmanship, unforgettable flavors, and a bakery with soul, Sandakan Bake is an absolute must. Truly one of the best pastry artists around.”

“We just had the iced almond joy latte and the lemon poppyseed cruffin and both were delicious! First time there and we will definitely be back :) Loved the atmosphere and that this cozy little place exists in Cairo!”

“The food is fantastic and the owners are the best!! Our favorite place for food.”

“Great place with wonderful food. Love the coffee.”

“The dinner parties are amazing but I'm obsessed with the vibe of Sunday service. I truly was not interested in eating anything else after visiting this place. Inspiring!!”

“This place is amazing. The dry aged steak is on par with any of Manhattan's best steakhouses. Every bit of food was fresh and delicious, and the presentation was perfect. The portions were very generous. The atmosphere was bright and cheerful. The staff were friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. The chef owner, Jeff, came out to greet us and make sure we were enjoying everything. Everything was perfect. The experience here is how every restaurant experience should be.”

“My sister and I had dinner at Prominence a couple of days ago. What an enjoyable meal! The food was wonderful, with generous portions. I had the swordfish special and the fish was very fresh! The Burrata Mozzerella appetizer was delicious, as were the rice balls. My sister had an appetizer special (fried pork belly) and linguini with a variety of seafood in the sauce- also delicious! The service was great- our waitress was Lydia- very prompt and there when you needed her without hanging over us. We would highly recommend Prominence!”

“Ran some errands in Saugerties with my wife and dog. Stopped here for some ice cream. The afternoon snack was good, service was good. They even gave me a free bowl of vanilla soft serve topped with a dog biscuit for our pup, he loved it. Service was very good and friendly.”

“This is a bakery you do not forget! We moved away from 5 years ago but knew if we needed desserts there’s only one place to go. Nina is so kind and desserts are always amazing!”

“Stop in for the doughnuts and stay for the rainbows 🤣

We had a great morning enjoying delicious doughnuts and coffee lounging on the lawn. I always heard how good the doughnuts were but don’t sleep on their coffee. ☕Very tasty pairing.

The doughnut experience… 🍩We worked our way through plain, cinnamon sugar, apple cider and the maple bacon. You have to start by judging a plain doughnut. Fred’s delivers. It’s a nice combo of cake and a little crunch with a nice vase flavor. Then it gets better from there. Cinnamon sugar is solid staple. Apple Cider adds a little fruity flourish. Then you can get a little decadent with the maple bacon. Loved the real bacon chunks and the light sweetness of their maple glaze. It’s a great sweet/savory combo.

The folks there were super nice. Two Thumbs up for service. 👍👍

Well done Fred’s. Look forward to visiting again”

“Food was very good. You can tell they make everythig homemade - especially the bread. Felt my glass of house wine was overpriced at $12, but the area as a whole is very expensive.

Its dog friendly and we had a beautiful mountain view from the covered porch area.

I got the chickpea sandwich which was delicious, although unexpectendly spicy. For me it was fine, but just mentioning it for others.

Definitely reccomend.”

“Overall was decent experience. Two items we ordered they were sold out of which was not great to hear. Waited quiet a while for a few of our items as well. Chanterelle and lentil dish was by far THE STAR of the show excellent!! Delicious cheese cart as well and plenty of solid wine choices to go with. Would go back for sure!!!”

“Excellent and delicious food! I highly recommend.”

“We love their breads (the croissant bread is amazing as French toast or grilled cheese) and their pastries. Haven’t had a bad choice at all.”

“This area does not have lots of food choices. Most of what you find is mediocre at best. Then comes Lucky Catskills. It was like seeing a mirage. What is a place like this doing out in the sticks. We had the Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup. They sold out of the dumpling. It was good for what is worth. I would recommend if you are tired of the typical sandwiches and fried foods that’s all over this area. Change of pace.”

“Everything was excellent and our server (Mia) was especially great! Thank you - we would love to come back!”

“the best community store. Was working on a job nearby and this was my go to for coffee and lunch. They have killer Indian food on tuesday nights. Great family business”

“Delicious garlic knots, pizza, beer. Great staff, service. Our go to every time we’re in the area. Excellent!”

“drive by all the time when we are in town and it was finally open. we are usually here on the weekends. nice and comfortable atmosphere. Casual dining. well worth the money.”

“Great service and suggestions from Roberto at the bar ... my dinner was wonderful .. the sunset a gift from spirit”

“Best food and service in the area. You need to go taste this Chef’s food ASAP”

“Taryn and Dan are absolutely amazing people who care about their staff and their customers! Accommodating to last minute requests and shuffling their own lives to help people in a last minute pinch, they are top notch! Great food, great service, great customer care!”

“This place is underrated. Good reasonably priced local spot with great drinks as well.”
