50 Best Bars near Nyack

“Love this place, it’s where everyone knows your name“

“Best staff and food in Nyack, hands down.“

“Just had one of those nights you wish you could bottle up and relive 🔥

Stopped by this bar for their open mic night, and WOW — the energy was unreal from start to finish. You could feel the mix of raw talent and pure passion in every performance, but the absolute highlight of the night was the band featuring Matthew Rapelye.

They didn’t just play music — they owned the room. Tight, dynamic, and completely in sync, with vocals and instrumentals that hit every note perfectly. The kind of performance that makes you stop mid-conversation and just listen. People were cheering, vibing, and completely locked in.

The atmosphere? Laid-back but electric. Great crowd, welcoming vibe, and the kind of place where you walk in a stranger and leave feeling like part of something.

If you’re even remotely into live music, open mic nights, or just discovering insanely talented artists before they blow up — this is the spot.

Already counting down until the next time 🎶“

“On December 12th my law office had their holiday luncheon at this wonderful restaurant. I also ordered a tray of meat lasagna for Christmas. If you have never had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant, I suggest you run - do not pass go - and get your butt there and eat the most delicous food on this planet. The chef created the meat lasagna - a simple dish - and elevated to something that just melts in your mouth with deliciousness. LOVE LOVE LOVE this restaurant!!“

“Loved my first experience here. Stopped in after shopping the town. Bartenders Tommy and Anthony were working and made incredible drinks. They were both very inviting and make you feel at home. I will be back to enjoy the atmosphere and great bartending skills.“

“Amazing place! We love the atmosphere, food and drinks!!“

“I don’t like beer, they always have plenty of other options. The selection changes. I enjoy the variety. They have events. I haven’t done the table top gaming night yet, but it looks fun.

It’s a good spot. easy to get to by car or train.“

“Vegan Friendly ❤️🩷 Great place.“

“Grate Sunday afternoon with Ice Petal playing The Dead. The food was amazing. Great vibe.“

“The Tapp is the quintessential local bar. The staff are very friendly, the burgers are phenomenal (as is everything else on the menu), and the prices are more than reasonable. If you find yourself in Tarrytown for shopping or seeing a show at The Music Hall, make a stop at The Tapp a part of the experience. Better still, make the trip just to visit The Tapp alone. It really is a great place to hang out with friends, catch a singer, play Tuesday Night Trivia, or have a terrific meal.“

“Great night out fun place“

“Great local Irish Pub. Good food and service. Will be coming back“

“Bar 141 is a beautiful eatery that is upscale but with an inviting and friendly atmosphere. The menu features a diverse array of gourmet dishes.

I would definitely recommend Bar 141 for drinks, dinner and the live entertainment.“

“Wonderful place, great Dive bar, could not be more friendly. We were from out of town, stumbled in, and Cindy, the owner, was so great and welcoming 🙏. We might be going back tomorrow for St Patrick's Day. You won't be disappointed.“

“I went with a group of friends for my birthday last night. It was AMAZING. The service was great, everyone was so friendly. The place itself was so clean and cute, really cool vibe. The Apps were great, Hush Puppies and Fried Calamari, yum. I did a make-your-own Seafood Boil. OH MY GOD. The New Zealand Mussels, King Crab and Dungeness Crab was out of this world in the Cajun Butter Sauce. I HIGHLY recommend this spot and will be going back.“

“To Sofia Aktas,Obviously since i assume you can read (at least i hope so) my real name is Michael Hennessy and the reason you werent served was because you were sloppy, beliligerent, and disrespectful (much like your post) hopefully your experience in flemings forced you TO TAKE A look at your inner self and maybe you'lll do better in the future. Hopefully as a healthcare worker you are better at your job then you are at drinking. And hopefully i can (like im sure most men in your life have) avoid you at all costs.Best Regards,Michael Hennessy“

“Being from Maine I’ll never admit this publicly, but we had the very best clam chowder, even better than anything we’ve had in Maine at the Station! It was so good! Again, I’d lose credibility with my Maine friends if I said this in public, so I trust Facebook will protect my identity! 🤣😂🤣 Thank you for great hospitality and a wonderful meal!“

“We were there last week with my family and we all loved it—we definitely plan on going back
Urban Central on Central Ave was welcoming and very clean, and the food tasted fresh and delicious. We actually took a chance on this place about three weeks ago and were very satisfied, so we went back again last week-and it was the same great, welcoming experience.
And trust me, we have three little kids, so that says a lot! ® We'll definitely be back.“

“Dined in with 4 adults and 2 8 yr old boys and it was great. Good service and delicious food. The drinks were also great-traditional margaritas & something with Hennessy. Ambiance even on a Monday was very cool. Well done Yuka’s! Your parking lot is always crowded so I knew you were good.“

“Tuck’d Away has the BEST brunch in the area. I never had a more diverse brunch in my life. the entire staff is very attentive and professional. Michael is the best owner in the world I ever met - so fun to be around and cares about the community. Jason is a very fun and friendly bartender and Stephanie and the serving staff always make it feel like you belong. Halloween was so fun and I loved how he had a costume contest- that Mcdonlads Girl is VIP - she won. Oh and tinkerbell was cool too 🤣👍📸“

“Chef Elmer is highly skilled and talented. The quality of the ingredients, the methods of cooking/raw and the spectacular presentation is world class! The tasting menu is one of the best I've had. Highly recommend!“

“I went here with my wife for Valentine’s Day for a lunch date and it was excellent. To start we got the barata which was fresh and paired nicely with the bread they gave us. Then we got a Filet Mignon, Lamb, baked potato, Mac and Cheese, and Asparagus. All of it was fantastic. My wife is pregnant so they made her a mocktail and I got an old fashioned. They nailed both drinks. Overall these guys delivered and made our final Valentine as a family of two special. Thank you guys. I highly recommend this spot and we will be back.“

“The papaya salad is a must. The clay pot salmon is delicious and so light. This is definitely my favorite place in Rockland County.“

“Yesterday 1st time had the ribs to die for .loved it all except the mac and cheese was a little to dry and wasnt a fan of the shell macaroni.but i did see a pizza pie go by and man it looks real good.im coming back my family and turn them on.“

“For a chain restaurant, the food and vibes here are both definitely very good. I’d say the food is above average regarding what you’d expect to get at a chain restaurant. If you’ve never been to this location or a Yard House in general i recommend visiting one.“

“Great food, great atmosphere, great staff“

“Great and affordable food. They did my wedding and all events for my family’s gathering. The owner and staff are very personable. Highly recommend it.“

“Such a great space and the servers are so dialed in.
My wife and I went back for the 3rd or 4th time last night and we had such a lovely time. The drinks came out so quickly and the hostess was very sweet and gave us a very personal compliment.
I did the pasta w filet and my wife had the ny strip. We did crab cocktails and blue point oysters. Martinis, old fashioned’s, gelato and sorbet finished off with espresso martinis. No complaints. The staff handled the busy Saturday evening w no issues. Will return again and its great for groups.“
