“This was such a great find while me and my husband were upstate for a few days. I loved that they had GF options and the food was so fresh and delicious. We went once and then came back the next day since it was so good. Very reasonable as well. I recommend!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pancakes and bread available“
“Excellent special occasion restaurant in a historic environment! The ambiance is cozy and romantic, the service is kind and attentive, and the food is seasonal and delicious. Upscale “farmhouse cooking” where every ingredient feels local and intentionally included. The menu changes frequently, so don’t expect the same thing each time. However, some of our favorites such as the trout rillettes and shishito peppers are available year round.“
“If you are looking for a Great sandwich for a more then reasonable price, you have found your place. The sandwich selection is full of great options, and you won't be disappointed. The Cuban has been my go-to for a quick weekend lunch option. The staff is attentive and friendly, and one gentlemen calls me young man, even though I am sure that I am older then him which leads me to an extensional crisis while I eat my Cuban. I hope that this joint can survive in our sweet little town full of Teeny boppers and hopeless hipsters. Do yourself a favor and grab a sandwich from this place before our only option is a mutant meat sandwich from Amazon grown in a laboratory for 2$ a month for eternity.“
“This place has a classic American tavern feel. There is bar seating and table seating. There are a couple of sections (a big back section which is where our group of 11 was seated). Food was delicious and they had a couple of options - bar snacks, appetizers, salads/soup, mains. The price of main entrees run from $20-$30. Service was also great.“
“Love working with Bryce & his dedicated team during special events! I am a professional photographer and every time I’ve worked at Novellas I’ve been nothing but comfortable, excited, and warmly welcomed by all staff!Everyone is dedicated to make operations run smoothly and Bryce is fantastic to coordinate with. Every time I have concerns about lighting or need updates throughout the night, Bryce always has an answer, a solution, a smile on his face. Thank you for creating a great environment for both guests & vendors. We appreciate all your hard work together at Novellas! Can’t wait for more events together in the future.“
“My all time favorite restaurant! Consistently excellent, we have been coming here for 35 years and have never once had a bad meal. Authentic German specialties are out of this world, everything is made with the finest ingredients and is very reasonably priced. Service is excellent and the atmosphere is charming in this wonderful family owned restaurant! No other restaurant even comes close!“
“It does not look as cool on the outside as it actually is on the inside. Highly recommend.Atmosphere: the ceiling is covered in records, and the walls are covered in music posters and guitarsVibe: while you wait for your food, a magician comes to your table and entertains you with cool card tricksFood: they really do have 30 different types of burgers! I had the Gwar Burger which was a double patty burger with pulled pork, delicious! My friend had the Yard Burger (or something like that) which was one patty and one friend chicken patty with lettuc and tomatoa and he really enjoyed it. I also got sweet potato fries as a side, top tier!Other: they serve ice cream in a major way. Like there's a whole old timey vibe ice cream shop as you enter. There's also a music novelty and memorabilia store attached to the sit down restaurant. If you're really good at Pacman you could win a free burger and fries!“
“I stopped here to get a light lunch and for a rest stop during a road trip. Although the listing makes it seem like a food court, it is actually a single ordering counter that offers coffees and a variety of prepared food items. I wanted something light, so I tried the empanadas with chimichurri. Although the portion size was good, the filling tasted like "sloppy Joe" meat, and the sauce was sweet. The restaurant has ample indoor seating, and a nice outdoor deck. Parking is limited, and I was lucky to arrive before the lunchtime crowd.“
“The Stone House Tavern is incredible! It is obvious they take great pride in food, drinks and service. We've been there a few times and it never disappoints whether it is a burger or a full meal. We were with friends recently and both my husband and our friend called their burgers "epic" :) Our server was friendly and professional and we had a great time. It sure is nice to be greeted with a smile!“
“The baked goods are amazing but consistently sold out of cardamom buns and cinnamon rolls….? Also no ability to heat sausage rolls and ham and cheese. The croissants are unmatched! Paris has competition. Seems like they are growing because they are delicious but be prepared to wait.“
“My fave vegan spot in New Paltz. Food is delish and staff is delightful. Puppy friendly with indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of GF optionsVegetarian options: Everything is veganDietary restrictions: In addition to being all vegan, there are lots of GF options, and everything la elements and adjustable so you can avoid nuts, seeds wtc.Kid-friendliness: Totally kid friendly“
“What a great place! Highly worth the slightly higher prices. Really quaint location tucked away, and the atmosphere is really fun. Great selection of drinks and food, and they even have a dedicated vegetarian menu if that's preferred.Really glad I checked out this place. Owners are super nice and friendly as well. Highly recommend to any in the area!“
“Great little spot in Kingston with delicious breakfast sandwiches and smoothies. The space is small and seating can be tight but you can order ahead. Our breakfast sandwiches were delicious. We had the country wrap and southwestern wrap. Both were flavorful and filling. I recommend this spot for a quick bite and delicious meal!“
“The squash was one of the best tasting dishes I had during a weekend upstate. Don’t miss the mayana chocolate bars—sometimes in the display case and sometimes out in the grocery store aisle. I’m obsessed.Vegetarian options: Lots of delicious premade vegetarian options.Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options, including the fried chicken.“
“Love this little bar. There's even a small balcony with a view to the Gunks, and a little raised bed of herbs that the bartender uses for drinks... so fresh lavender in your cocktail...be still my senses, only one at a time please! Service is always lovely and welcoming. If you like Bourbon, a cocktail called the "Bees Knees" is the way to go.“
“A really nice coffee shop off the beaten path in New Paltz. They have a good menu with all your typical drinks with some seasonal specials. I highly recommend the amaretto and campfire specials. They served baked goods and food and both are fresh and tasty. It is a smaller space with limited seating. I personally love the back porch. It is a bit colder outside, but the view makes it worth it. Service is decently paced unless it's Uber busy, then it could be a bit slower, but it's not anything too extremely long. Staff are quite friendly. Would recommend“
“The Lunchbox is my favorite quick lunch spot in Kingston. Sean, the chef, is super kind and delightful. With a variety of healthy options on the menu, all the food I’ve tried has been delicious. Go grab your lunch at Sean’s window; you won’t regret it.“
“This is really a cute place. Has great food. Great atmosphere. It is family friendly and they also have a nightlife as well. I will definitely be going back. You must try their weekend brunchParking: There is parking on both sides of the restaurantKid-friendliness: The place is kid friendly. Family friendly“
“The owners are, truly, some of the most genuine business owners I’ve ever met. Deeply kind, so fun to be around, and to top it off, the food and atmosphere are great and chill. I love The Spy team, and I’m so glad that it’s in my town. Thank you all! ✨“
“Went with friends for a birthday celebration. Veggie burgers are house made, crispy tater tots, rib eye, and chicken sammy were all good. Live music began as we were leaving. Good time!Vegetarian options: Veggie burgers are house made!Parking: Lots of room to park.“
“We were out shopping and asked the salesperson where was a good place to eat and they recommend the Hoffman House. We were seated right near the fireplace to warm up from being outside. Our waitress Sam was very friendly and prompt. I had the fish and chips while Hubby had the Chicken Fettucine special. Both were excellent! The homemade cheesecake was delicious. So if you are in the area give this a try, I'm glad we did!“
“Hands down my favorite place in New Paltz for lunch or dinner, dine-in or takeout. First-rate food, excellent preparation in a kitchen visible from the dining room and the best staff in the business. Cannot recommend Lola's Cafe New Paltz enough–five stars and A+“
“My son and I stopped here to grab a bite to eat before heading to the Rosendale Theatre for a movie. My son had a burger, which he said was delicious and I had the smoked brisket tacos, which were also delicious! They had some drink specials so I decided to try their Mint Margarita and it was yummy! The place is small with a large bar and several booths to sit in. The waitress was very nice, but since she was servicing the entire place by herself, the service was a little slow.“
“We enjoy the Reservoir Inn for special occasions. Since we had our wedding reception there we try to go every year for our anniversary (and occasion birthdays). This year we had an absolutely delicious jambalaya. The wait staff. Is always excellent and we can always depend on great food!“
“First stop on our camping trip in the area this weekend and with it only just beginning, we can safely say this was the highlight of the trip. The food, drinks, service and overall essence are 100%. Everyone is so nice and the food comes out so quick. Truly, truly loved getting to eat and hang out here!“
“Great place for a bite. I've had lunch here before. Today was just drinks and a quick bite. Green fried tomatoes done nicely. We also had wings with a sweet chili glaze. They were yummy. Sweet with a nice spice but not too hot. A cucumber mohito hit the spot. We need to come back again to try more specialties. It was so good that I forgot to take photos.“
“Yesterday, my sorority alumni met at Maggie Mae's for our fall luncheon. My seat had the perfect view of changing fall leaves. The weather here on Long Island was absolutely horrible. When I set out on my road trip upstate, I almost turned around and went home. I am so glad that I didn't! Not only did I share some funny memories and have some good laughs with my sisters of all ages, but I had an incredible lunch, followed by a dessert that almost literally blew me away! I'll post the pictures, but I'll tell you that I had a delicious chicken francaise with asparagus and the most wonderful mashed potatoes. I saved most of the potatoes for last, with a fair bit of the sauce. I only wish that I had brought a rubber scraper with me so I could get every last delicious speck of mashed potatoes. Then came my favorite part: dessert! The menu describesit as a rich chocolate Guinness cake with cream cheese frosting. Yelp reader, I am a Guinness girl. However, I could not begin to conceptualize how the two flavors would work together. Not only did they work together wonderfully, but the cream cheese frosting put an interesting sweet little twist on the flavor. I have a terrible sweet tooth. and when I find a sweet that I like, I just can't get enough of it. I wish I could have another piece of that cake right now...“
“I have played the course for fundraiser activities but have never stopped by just for a meal. I've been here two times in one month for lunch just recently and I highly recommend. Chicken pesto with tomato and mozzarella paninni is outstanding. Everthing is superfresh and very tasty. My friends had the shrimp with avocado wrap and said the same. It was quite busy and therefore the service was slow(they seemed a little shorthanded) but she was extremely pleasant. Of course the Atmosphere is uncomparably beautiful.“
“A wonderful bistro that can provide a variety of needs: from a sandwich and coffee on the go to a catering order for a party. The food is such high quality and service is excellent. Try the Moroccan chicken salad wrap or the vegan thai-peanut wrap. You won't regret!“
“This is a family owned old time restaurant and a cash only establishment. The food is delicious and well prepared. The locals know a great place to eat. Fresh roasted turkey and ham. Although it looks pretty dated, don't dismay you'll not be sorry once you taste the great eats!“
“Been coming here since I got my license, that was 40 years ago. Now that I live in New Paltz I try to get there once a week. Party platter, Chicken BLT, Mac Truck burger or Nachos with Chili is what I usually get. A Guinness is always available and great smiles from all the servers and bartenders. Never been disappointed not once.Parking: If you are lucky you'll be able to park right out front. If not the entire street has parking as well as across the street there's a huge parking lot.“
“The culinary delights at Hickory BBQ are simply exquisite. The staff consistently goes above and beyond, radiating warmth and attentiveness. With portions more than ample and prices unbeatable, you'll inevitably depart with a satisfying surplus. It's become our cherished tradition to gather here as a circle of friends, relishing every moment without fail.“
“The market: Quite simply the only place worth going for seafood, fresh or prepared, within 50 miles. I come from San Francisco and grew up going to places like this, its one par with SF or Monterey seafood joints. If you're wanting someting special, if you call ahead and give them a few days, they can get you just about anything, including bulk quantity for events/catering. So happy this place is only 25 min from home.The Restaurant: This is not a fancy seafood restaurant, its a seafood joint. There is a difference. Think paper plates and curly fries. Better for a quick bite than a fancy occasion.“
“Had another great family dinner tonight at the Hurley Mountain Inn! It’s been our family favorite for many years now. Always a good home cooked meal, always great service from folks who make you feel like family. The kids love the games and we joined them for a game of pool. If you are a local to Olive (like us), Hurley, Marbletown, Kingston or the surrounding area and haven’t been (in a bit or ever) or a visitor to the area, take a ride over for a great drink menu and always yummy specials. Thank you Steve and the whole crew for being a place we can count on for a good family night out!“
“Updated to add: Since writing my initial review below, just 24 hours ago, they have changed wing prices to $1/wing, 10 wings maximum, and the special only runs from 5-7. Really bummed about the change. I won't be changing the number of stars here but definitely will be visiting less frequently, as the time change and price jump doesn't work for me --------- If I could recommend one place in the Hudson valley for wings, it's the anchorage. They are SO good! Wing night is on Thursday and they are 75cents/wing with a max of 15 per person. The wings aren't small and lacking in meat like a lot of places and the flavor is incredible. This place is definitely off the beaten path (tucked inside of a boat marina) and parking is a bit small so I recommend carpooling if you can. Super relaxed and casual atmosphere. No frills or unnecessary add-ons. Just good food and a good time. Service can be a little slow, but that may be because we went on wing night. I'd say be prepared to spend a little time there. Definitely not a dine and dash. We didn't partake in the drinks but they have $5 margaritas and they looked delicious. If you love wings, you'll love this place“
“Greeted by the owner when walked in and sat at the bar for a cocktail. Bartender Steve was friendly and made a great Manhattan with a heavy pour. Our waitress Michelle was very friendly and accommodating. The calamari appetizer had a light batter with great flavor and the halibut bites were so tasty. Main courses were strip steak, bone in pork chop with apples, chicken Lombardo and cod. All 4 of us raved over the flavors of our meals. Broccoli was amazing as well as their French fries. To top the evening off, the owner Denny stopped by our table and was so friendly and gave us a history of the restaurant. Highly recommend for a date night or any occasion.“
“Deising’s bakery is hidden gem of Kingston. It’s small town dinner meets incredibly bakery . My wife and had lunch there today and it was awesome . The staff are super friendly and accommodating . The food is reasonably priced and portion size is more than reasonable . The bake goods are delicious The only issue is there is limited parking but circle around the parking lot you won’t regret it .“
“Decided to go for breakfast. This diner is only about 15 minutes from me. it definitely looks like the 1970s inside. Nothing much has changed in all these years. They had some other good breakfast specials so I decided to go with their biscuits and gravy sausage gravy with potatoes and I added an egg the service was very friendly. Some locals were sitting at the counter around With the waitress looks like the owner may have come out and talked to them as well. My food came out and it looked very good. The sausage gravy had a good flavor. I didn't see that many chunks of sausage in the gravy however. The potatoes were cooked very nicely Crispy and tasty the egg was made just right. The biscuits were fresh and fluffy. Definitely a good value as well. Good Hardy portion I've heard that the burgers are made at the diner. Too often diners just get those frozen burgers and they all have the same consistency and taste. Out of the good number of diners in Kingston. There's one on the main street downtown. That's pretty good as well. Plus one that's a little further down the road I think there's even another one not too far from that one but out of the four this one is the best .“
“Cuddys is a great wing spot in new paltz! This is my go to place when i’m not sure what I want to eat because i’m always able to find something on the menu! The drinks are great here as well! Great family spot, after work quick bite, traditional bar food!“
“Truly a perfect location, friendly staff, nice rooms, unique proposition where the hotel has multiple locations/buildings throughout town.The hotel bar had some really unique and fun cocktails, including a fun sidecar-esque martini and a tequila based creamy coffee cocktail.The continental breakfast is great, easy but good quality, with attentive staff.Rooms are nice and uniquely appointed, and clean!Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Kingston. We brought a dog and it was pooch-approved also!Walkability: Definitely hugely walkable to get around town, and even can walk to a small strip mall that’s a quarter mile awayFood & drinks: Continental breakfast in the morning.The hotel’s restaurant is great, and contends with any top option in the area.Bar is small but lovely with unique cocktails.“
“The Bistro has been a very popular breakfast and lunch place in New Paltz for many years. Recently under new ownership, some things have changed. The breakfast and lunch aspect have stayed roughly the same, but they have added a VEGAN VIETNAMESE dinner six days a week. I don’t usually do reviews of places in NewPaltz, and wasn’t planning to, so I did not get pictures, will next time. Great food and make sure you try the bubble tea, probably the best in town!Vegetarian options: The DINNER is all vegan“
“I treated myself on my birthday to dinner and drinks. It was after 6p on a Thursday night. It’s a small and cozy spot with a few people at the bar and a couple of us seated. I started with two unique tequila drinks. I then had the chopped salad with blue cheese crumbles, followed by the shrimp with grits. It’s my new favorite. I never would have put those two together. I want to go back and try more appetizers and another entree.“
“Dallas Hot Wieners is a nice find on my way to New York City. I randomly found it on Google Maps and I'm so happy to have dropped by. I really liked the old diner vibe. The service was very friendly and the prices are very affordable. The Dallas Hot Wieners secret sauce is so good and can go with anything. It's a little bit spicy, but you get used to it.“
“lemon squeeze had the only people all night that would help my friends when a man was harassing us. we were there for a few hours before this happened and had the best time with the live music and great vibe! the staff genuinely saved us that night and deserve ten stars“
“Such a hidden gem!! We stopped on our way to Albany for lunch and a beer....great atmosphere and music. Probably the best chicken sandwich I've ever had - not a frozen patty but a legit breaded chicken breast! And the potato skins weren't really skins but full halves of baked potato. Come hungry, leave full and happy!“
“Had a great weekday brunch here. Food and cocktails are spot on. This is the kind of place you'd expect in the city proper and a nice option is here. Very vegan friendly. Prices are high but fair for farm to table ingredients and ethical wage transparency the whole way down.“
“I was a little disappointed by the brownies I got here. They tasted like cardboard sprinkled with cocoa powder. They looked fudgey and sweet but tasted nothing like what they looked like. The staff were friendly and the upstairs has many tables in a diner-booth style. I'll try another baked-good next time and hopefully, I can change my rating.“
“We were just passing by and this restaurant really surprised me. It’s kind of small but very nice inside. The service was great and the food was so delicious. We order the short ribs which came with spinach, it was delicious especially the spinach. Fried chicken with potato tots, Chicken Cobb salad great dishes, as well. As dessert, we ordered the butter pecan pudding. Definitely, we are coming back to this place the next time we are around.“
