“100% recommend novellas! We just recently celebrated our wedding there and we had the best. Time. They made the entire wedding process so easy for us, with menu items, decor, timelines, everything. You name it, they did it! Bryce, Chloe, and their entire team were so helpful and kind. So willing to step up to plate, and the food was DELICIOUS. Super affordable and convenient as well, and they answered any and every question they had. Our special day was made even better thanks to the wonderful work of their staff and the beautiful scenery of their venue. My guests and family were overjoyed and welcomed happily by all of them, and I’m incredibly grateful! This place has become like family, and we’ll be back as often as we can now because of their professionalism and kind hospitality! Thank you guys!!“

“We visit this restaurant often, it is the absolute best vegan restaurant ever.?Every soup I’ve tried was delicious. The sweet potato biscuits are amazing. The desserts are fabulous. If 10 is the highest rating I can give, I give them an 11. I wish we had this gem in NEPA. We will always be back for more of this place. Thank you for having such a wonderful, variety filled menu always. I❤️ Karma Road“

“This weekend was my first time visiting New Paltz and my girlfriend and I stopped by this place as soon as we saw pickles (I love pickled food) I bought a pineapple habanero hot sauce and a jar of their dill pickles with garlic. The hot sauce was absolutely fantastic, very spicy just as the owner warned me, but delicious and the pickles were so acidic and tart yet sweet and savory. They have lots of things like pickled jalapenos, different home made juices and mixes and a lot of sandwiches, Frank's is a must stop for anyone who likes pickled foods with good sandwiches with great sauces.“

“Just great, tasty food. Any seafood spot that makes good tartar sauce gets my business and vote. In my top three for sure.“

“Visited Garvan’s today for the first time for a late lunch in the Pub. We started with Mexican Street Carrots. So delicious! My husband had the traditional Irish breakfast and I had the lamb stew. Both meals were excellent. Wish we could have had dessert, but we were so stuffed. The staff was friendly and very welcoming. We’re looking forward to visiting again.“

“Whenever we are in the New Paltz area, we always try to make sure we get breakfast or lunch here. The food and coffee are fantastic, and the servers are attentive and friendly. Great atmosphere and vibe.“

“Great wine bar with great Sangria! Perfect place to relax after a morning of hiking or running!!!!“

“The owners, James and Michelle, and staff are always welcoming. Great selection of coffee and tea. They'll grind your selection of beans or take em home whole. James' paninis just great. Starbucks has nothing on Mudd except hype. You want good ☕️ and reasonably priced selection of quality products when you need a break Mudd Puddle is worth a drop in.“

“What a lovely place. Excellent drinks as you’d expect from a Nola inspired place. Gater tots were super crunchy and flavorful but definitely over salted. I absolutely loved the blackened catfish but the jambalaya was just ok. Fast attentive service, cute vibe and good prices.“

“😀great atmosphere, piano bar, great service and delicious food!“

“Awesome food awesome service 😀 😎“

“My boyfriend and I got recommended this place for breakfast and went to check it out! The place was super busy (we went on a Saturday morning), and the food took a while to come out, but overall we enjoyed the food and thought the place was super nice!“

“best challah I've had in years. pick up a loaf or two for my family every friday.“

“Best restaurant and coolest Owner Wayne and bartender dave“

“My wife and I were part of a large group of 10u softball girls, parents and coaches. From the beginning, the hostess and wsitess were extremely accommodating and eventually, the manager, in her infinite wisdom moved everyone upstairs so we could all be together and the girls could have a blast. Thank you so much for providing great service, great food and a great time for all. We are from Bethlehem PA but will be back again.“
