14 Best Cocktail Bars near Kingston

“The cocktails, food and our server Megan were all terrific. The Spicy Tuna on Crunchy Rice and the Drunken Noodles were fabulous! Highly recommended.“

“SO fun! Sunday nights 9-12 karaoke upstairs, great vibes and supportive host. Drinks on demand, service with a smile (and occasionally a wink), small yet tasty snack/food menu. Great community ?

Parking: Huge free parking lot on site, never had a problem finding a spot immediately.“

“We have been all over Kingston and this is by far the best cocktail bar in the area. Their espresso martini which is stirred not shaken with a salty creamy foam on top is by far the best espresso martini i have ever had: all of their cocktails have been shockingly delightful

their small collection of bar snacks is also a revelation: perhaps the best chicken liver mousse i have had. we have been here for two days and as i sit here writing this i am enjoying my 5 th serving of their haiwan chex mix.

The staff is so sweet, Lia may just be the best bartender in the hudson valley. so sweet and skilled and professional:

i can't say enough good things about this place. vibes, drinks, food and service. amazing“

“Get the drunken nonna, you won’t be sorry,

Bar pies go hard . I tend to be a “NY pizza snob” , this is like a personal scillian / almost slight Detroit style and it’s just delicious.

Bar is small but packs big vibes and is a great double date night spot .“

“Usually offers good bread. But is very wishy washy on their "old bread sales" prices. If it's a day old it should be discounted - period. (I have worked for almost four years in a bakery) This is being aggregated by the fact that I was not notified of this pricing structure when I asked for day old bread (with the specific intend to get a discount for something that is not fresh and won't last me as long). Had I been informed about this, I would have just bought the same bread *fresh* - for the *same price*. I feel that the omission of this fact is even done purposely to mislead customers.“

“We went on Halloween and it was busy, so we decided to come back later for drinks after seeing a show at Levon Helm. We got a seat at the bar and Harry and Julien took great care of us! Harry was very knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond making everyone he served feel special. It was such an incredible place to visit. Can't wait to go back again!“

“rob K is a stellar purveyor of spirits. with his wit and charm he can't go ŵrong! thanks Rob!“

“How did I not know about this place until a month or so ago??? We went for dinner on my husband's birthday, and everything was so good. We (he) was hungry, so we had multiple appetizers, two entrees, and shared a dessert, and we had multiple cocktails. The space is dark and quite cozy, not large, and there's a really nice, big bar. We sat at a table for two, kind of near the entrance, and the only complaint I would mention is that it was a little bit cold in the restaurant initially, and there are better places to sit than near the front door, so you could request a better table if you make a reservation. Other than that, the service was wonderful, the cocktails were really interesting, and I ended up drinking a couple of cocktails with liquors in them that I normally would not choose, but they were delicious. This restaurant is a little different in that they put more emphasis on seafood and caviar in some of their dishes - if you look at their menu, you will see. There were plenty of non-meat appetizers, and the main dishes were a little more limited, but I think there would be something for everyone (we stick to seafood and vegetables). I would definitely eat here again - beautiful ambiance, wonderful service, terrific cocktails, and really good food!“

“We had dinner the other evening. The atmosphere was great. Our waitress Ella was lovely. The food was great tasting and the plating was wonderful. The yuzu tart was a very good ending to our dinner.“

“Came all the way from Brooklyn to visit again one of my favorite restaurants. Their food is amazing, great pizza, great wine, the milanese was really good and (you can’t skeep dessert) and the environment is unique . Owner Martin is the best . Thank you guys“

“The food is excellent! and the service is fast. A little pricey tho.“

“The Anchorage is one of my favorite restaurants in all of Kingston the service, the food, everything about it makes you feel like it’s a home-cooked and the warmth of the people make you wanna keep coming back. Especially the bartender Stephanie she’s become like a home away from home. She makes the best original drinks. She’s one of the best bartenders in Kingston and and one best bartender in Kingston award. Go to the Anchorage you won’t regret it!! 🍻🍀“
