Disappointed to say the least. Wasn't able to try and never will. We had a last minute emergency the day of our reservation and had to drive to Boston - I am 8 months pregnant. I tried calling to cancel our reservation. I've called 5+ times, emailed multiple times. Still charged $50 for cancellation. At least pick up your phone or respond to emails.

After sitting down with three friends and ordering drinks, we ordered dinner. I ordered a hamburger well done. Only then was I told that they don't make food well done because they have a small kitchen and don't have time to prepare the food. This should not be told you after you sit down and order drinks. This should be told to you before you even sit down!

We went for the Monday night burger special. Which did not disappoint!Bartender, wait staff all excellent.Cozy ambiance. The bar & restaurant were very busy as the whole town came out for the burgers!Only problem? It's too loud. Ok, the bar was very noisy. But the music was way too loud in this little place. Needs to be adjusted. Hard to hear our conversation.

Small, intimate location with great cocktails, fantastic cuisine, and very personable service. I highly recommend the strip steak. The chimichurri on the side is a game changer. Definitely coming back again for

We dined here on a lovely summer evening and enjoyed every minute of it (except for the yellow jackets!). We were walk-ins, arriving early (around 5) and were immediately accommodated with a table on the patio. It was a bit small for five of us plus toddler, but the servers were quick to keep our table cleared of any empty plates and glasses. Great service all around! More important was the food, and we were delighted with our meals. We began with appetizers--shishito peppers, caponata, marinated olives, all of which were wonderful and nicely presented. The cocktail menu was creative and extensive, and the wine selection by the glass was limited but very good. We chose as entrees a wonderful pork chop, accompanied with pickled peppers and Swiss chard (a wonderful pairing, and the pork was tender and moist), a grilled branzino (wonderfuul presentation, topped with chimichurri), roasted chicken spiced with Calabrian chiles, and steamed mussels (an appetizer ample enough for an entree). Excellent choices all around. The only drawbacks were the yellow jackets that were eager to sample our food, and the small table that meant for some close quarters. It would have been nice to have a high chair provided, or a table that could accommodate a child's seat. Beyond that, we were immensely pleased with Canoe Hill; we loved the attentive and personal service, and the food was exceptional. We'd love to return!
I was looking forward to trying this restaurant and called to make a reservation for 4 people on a Saturday evening. I was told that they only take reservations online. I politely asked if she could take my reservation over the phone since I had called, but was very rudely told that I could not do that and had to go through Resy. Well I tried to do that, and thought I did make a reservation for 4 people at 7:15 on that Saturday evening. The process of making a reservation through this site was a bit confusing to me but it was the ONLY way to make a reservation. This restaurant actually deters you from making a reservation by stating that walk ins are suggested, and you will be charged a $25.00 per person cancellation fee. We did not want to drive from Poughkeepsie to Millbrook with a party of 4 on a Saturday night without making a reservation. Being a restaurant owner for many years, I’m well aware of busy weekends. We walked into the restaurant a half hour before our 7:15 reservation to have a drink at the bar, and was rudely told that we didn’t have a reservation. The bartender remembered talking to me that afternoon, telling me she couldn’t take the reservation over the phone and that I had to book it online. I told her that I thought that I did that. She said I did not and that it was not her fault that now we were without a table. Very RUDE. I honestly thought that I made the reservation picking the date, time, and number of people in our party; then clicking the confirm button. I thought that was it, but I guess there was more to it. It’s like filling out an application and you have to put your credit card info there so they could charge you the $25 for canceling. I should have known that if it was this hard to make a reservation that it wasn’t worth it, and then to be treated so rudely by staff was even worse! I couldn’t even think of treating people like this. I don’t know how they stay in business with that attitude. Shame on them.

Can't fault the lovely food and waiters from my last visit but had a bad experience with the cancellation policy/ manager on my recent booking. I had a reservation on the Friday, and I called up on the Thursday morning asking to cancel because resy wasn't working, they assured me this was cancelled. I never got a confirmation email, but when I checked the next day at 4pm this still wasn't cancelled, I then cancelled on the Resy platform and received a notification charging me $50. I explained the situation but the manager wouldn't budge on the policy. Won't be returning based off this. Sadly for $50 they've lost life long business from a local customer.Queue snarky comment from the manager...
