Annie and Jocelyn are great! Great spot for shows or drinks with friends!

Absolutely without a doubt the best live music venue in the Hudson Valley. Incredible live sound. Immensely friendly staff. An insane variety of events, shows, and DJs. I don’t even drink and I have an absolute blast every single time I go there. All of the love to Meg and her team. One of my favorite places to go to a show

I went for a concert. I didn't get any food but the drinks on top were really good. Lots of local selections.

Friendly bartenders, good drinks, and a younger crowd when I visited. They were showcasing local talent and upcoming artists, which made for a cool experience. The vibe was more laid-back overall, but there’s a dancefloor area where the artist performed, so you can enjoy both chill hangs and live music. Definitely a nice spot to check out.

Came here after an 11 hour shift and ordered a drink with Annie who was so attentive I left 100% tip. Unfortunately afterwards I was attended by Josie who did not look me in my face at all. When I asked if they carried fernet she responding with a cold and quick “no” and made no effort to check. When I decided to take it on myself to scan their inventory on their back bar I realized that they had a full bottle directly behind where she was standing. I pointed it out to her, a bartender not a barback, and she proceeded to say nothing and poured it resentfully. I’ve visited this space a few times, albeit reluctantly, due to their gratuitous cover charge but wanted to find a space for myself here as a born and raised local who works in the industry. Unfortunately after months of on and off giving this space a chance I can say I’ve continuously received careless service and will continue to tell my industry peers to avoid this bar if they want to find a space where they can have fun and also be acknowledged as humans.

I’m a student at the CIA, the bartenders at reason and ruckus are amazing. It isn’t just bartending they’re putting on an experience for guests. I recommend Fallon to all my friends.

February 14th I met the the loves of my life Annie and Fallon first of all you never need to ask for a drink there on it. Second they’re the coolest and cutest ladies ever. 100/10 recommend best bartenders in the 845 by a long shot!
