An underrated local bar that exceeds expectations and builds an atmosphere of belonging. I've been away from NY state for 6+ years, and what I have craved the most is a local bar with a cozy atmosphere. Not somewhere to escape from the monotony of daily but somewhere that adds to your enjoyment of living in the local area. My favorite meal was the french onion soup but the mac and cheese and pulled pork was great as well.
JD's has the best aspects of a local bar that I wish I could find in other places around the country: warm seating area, great food, and staff that knows and cares about regular customers and their families. I will absolutely be visiting again when I come back to the Poughkeepsie area. I highly encourage others to visit and experience a bar that is not just located in but a part of the community.
Parking: On a calm night, plenty of parking. During a big football game or holiday weekend, parking may fill up quickly

Pretty cool place if you’re looking for a local’s joint that makes you feel welcome if you’re a visitor. Food is good in terms of quality and quantity.

My friend and I decided to go out for lunch and since JD’s is right near us, we decided to try it. Their menu is first-rate, prices are good, service was wonderful and the food was delicious. The only thing I would say is that the acoustics are not great, but that will not stop us from going back. We had a wonderful meal, their burgers are gigantic and cooked perfectly. Their French fries are not salty or oily. All in all it was a great meal.
Parking: JD’s has ample free parking
Wheelchair accessibility: No steps to get inside and tables can accommodate a wheelchair

Good food and good selection of beer!
Best pub in Dutchess county. Many beer choices. Wine. Specials. Food is a 'A' in quality and quantity. Service is cheerful and fast. Splitting the bills up is no problem.

The place itself is very nice, but the bar manager bullies the staff. Earlier this week he fired a bartender and reduced her to tears in front of everyone in the entire place. Even if the firing was earned (which I don’t believe that it was), the matter should have been dealt with in a private setting in a professional manner, not by bullying a young girl in public. Not only was it blatantly inappropriate, it was also abusive as well. Several of the regular customers (including myself) are boycotting what was our favorite local bar because of this incident. Nobody wants to go relax and have a drink in a place with such a negative atmosphere.

What a great place. I wasn't expecting to be there that night but was invited by some coworkers. I was at the bar for a bit and brought some takeout home for the family (munchie platter) which was yummy. The staff was very friendly with just the right amount of comfortable fun banter to make it feel like I had been coming there for a long time.Keep it up!
