We were walking around before getting back on our train to head home. We found Barley on the Hudson via Google. It was a very pleasant experience and Liza is the best. We got something light and enjoyed the atmosphere. I don’t usually opt for outdoor dining, for various reasons. However this was such a laid back, enjoyable vibe overlooking the water with ample space between tables. The restrooms were clean and we felt valued as customers. Thank you.

Parking: I included a photo of the parking area which is directly across from the Tarrytown Metro North station.

Found this hidden gem on are way home from Connecticut on a perfect summer day, decided to skip the traffic and look for a spot for a cocktail and nibble. This place checked all the boxes, sunset, live music and delish bar snacks. Will definitely he back. Terry town has some great stuff!

Our group got chicken tenders, fried pickles, mozzarella sticks, fries and it was all below average, even for bar food. The worst of all was the $18 Buffalo chicken wrap that came with no fries that was basically a lettuce sandwich. (see picture) I said something to the server and she looked at he like I had 2 heads. She said she would bring more chicken and 30 minutes later and she never did. Also $36 for 2 slushi drinks is a bit much during a Happy Hour time.. Outside of being on the water, there was absolutely no redeeming qualities with this establishment. We will never go back!

Always a great experience here - the view is incredible, the food is great (the fried pickles especially) and there is always different bands to check out during the week!

It is confusing to read negative reviews regarding a self service establishment such as Barley. Reviewers mentioned lazy staff but the staff are not traditional waitstaff. At Barley, you order your own drinks and food. The servers deliver your food promptly to your table and provide you w any condiments you may need. Perhaps these complaining customers were expecting an upscale waterfront dining establishment. Barley is no such animal. It is a beautiful spot to grab a drink, some no frills food and enjoy the majestic Hudson river along w breathtaking sunsets and great music. Is the bathroom dirty? Yes. Are there bugs at sunset? Yes. Which are all to be expected at an outdoor waterfront restaurant. Don’t let these negative Nancy reviewers keep you away. Barley is an understated little gem on the river. If you go there knowing what to expect, you will not be disappointed.

Great views and worth a sunset cocktail. Food was all fried, nothing that spectacular. For me I didnt go for food but for the views.

This is a cool spot right on the Hudson in Tarrytown. It has a relatively casual and relaxed vibe. The menu is a bit limited but the food was good. We ordered fish and chips, tuna sandwich, mozzarella sticks, guacamole, corn dip, and fish tacos. You basically seat yourself and order food at the counter and they bring the food to you. Choice of refreshments, especially non-alcoholic was scarce. The staff were nice and helpful. The food was a bit pricy but that's normal for these riverside food spots.

Good location in a cove food menu is limited and no table service. They had a band playing on Saturday night was nice. The frozen Pina coladas are $18.00 each could have been better with a piece of pineapple in it for that price and size glass.

This is my 3rd time here and I will keep coming back. The view and atmosphere is so chill, I always feel like I’m on a vacation here. The customer service is great! Our bartender, Christian, was the best! He was friendly and offered great service. The live band, Mike Ruskin Music, added to the chill vacation vibe. They were great! The food is decent. It’s your average American fare. It’s not bad, not great, it’s decent. I keep coming back, not for the food, but the atmosphere. I would recommend to a friend.
