34 Best Bars near Tivoli

“Came here with friends for dinner and was not disappointed. Ordered 2 apps, 3 meals, 3 desserts, and multiple beers... I know were lushes. Everything, including the attentive staff (even though we were the only table outside), was amazing. Food was so delishly flavorful and yummy. Can't wait to return!“

“What a gem of a place! I sat outside with some friends - we ordered inside and a server brought the drinks out. To my surprise they have cynar and were willing to make a cynar spritz! Delicious. I also tried the pineapple margarita, too. Refreshing. It's really cute inside.
Yet, this lovely night could have been a bad memory. Buzzing on good drinks, atmosphere and conversation, I left my (beloved, expensive) sunglasses behind...gasp! The staff not only rescued them, but were willing to make sure they made their way back to me. 10/10 for Stockade Tavern. Will come again and again.“

“Best little place in the world!“

“Pretty good gluten free pizza crust, and the toppings were delicious. The other pie we ordered didn't come with the add-on we asked for and was very different from what was advertised. It's a very crowded and noisy bar so be prepared for that. There are a few parking spots in their parking lot, otherwise its street parking.“

“I recently stopped into Kelly’s Shamrock Tavern, and let me tell you—this place is everything a real neighborhood bar should be. As soon as I walked in, it felt like I had stepped into a warm memory. No frills, no fake smiles—just good people, cold drinks, and an atmosphere you can’t fake.

The bartenders are the kind of folks you instantly feel comfortable talking to—friendly, attentive, and they know how to pour a perfect drink. The crowd? A great mix of locals, regulars, and folks just there for a good time. Everyone’s chill, no egos, no drama.

I played a few games of pool, caught some laughs with people I’d never met before, and genuinely didn’t want to leave. There’s just something about Kelly’s—it’s got soul. You can feel the history in the walls, and it’s still alive and thriving today.

If you’re in Kingston and want a break from the trendy spots or overpriced cocktails, come to Kelly’s. It’s authentic, it’s welcoming, and honestly, we need more places like this. I’ll definitely be back—and I’m bringing friends next time.“

“lovely atmosphere and Kate the bartender is wonderful!!“

“Great hamburger and tater Tots. Intimate performance space in the back.“

“OMG Eva at the bar, punk rock on the juke box, I love it“

“Great place for a drink or three!“

“SO fun! Sunday nights 9-12 karaoke upstairs, great vibes and supportive host. Drinks on demand, service with a smile (and occasionally a wink), small yet tasty snack/food menu. Great community ?

Parking: Huge free parking lot on site, never had a problem finding a spot immediately.“

“Fun… great music too! Dance yeah dance!“

“Exceptional coffee and deserts, great atmosphere, and a college town vibe. Unfortunately you have to climb a few steps to get in so it's not accessible for people with mobility disabilities. Very responsive as well, happy to hear that you will soon make it available for people in mobility disability.“

“The pan con tomate is a stand out — for sure worth a spot on your order and we debated ordering a second!

However the menu changed recently and we found that it didn’t have enough offerings. The frisé salad ($16) is also steep for what it is — a bowl of bitter lettuce with a fishy dressing and some parm shaved on top. Mirador is a nice spot for a drink and a snack but for a fuller meal you may need to look elsewhere or be prepared for a heavy bill for small plates.“

“I am very particular about pizza and I’ve had a hard time finding good pie in the Hudson Valley. We tried Pizzeria Posto today and I’m happy to say it’s here. Awesome margarita pie with tons of basil and excellent wine!“

“I just had Mirabella’s cater my husband‘s 70th birthday. Let me tell you the food was so good and very good quality. Brandon did an awesome job price was very reasonable and everybody loved it. We had lots of leftovers so if you were going to have a party, I highly would recommend this place called Mirabella’s and asked for Brandon. He’s a great guy. He will take care of you. I am giving him 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“quick service, good food, friendly service persons“

“Braved temps in the 20’s, snowy/icy roads last evening to enjoy Taco Tuesday! Had the blackened scallop tacos… they were were absolutely outstanding! Always generous portions, the freshest ingredients, the nicest staff, and reasonable prices! Brava and Bravo! ❤️🌮❤️🌮👏👏👏👏👏 Thank You Santa Fe Uptown!“

“Their food is so amazing. Southwest Chicken rolls, Angus burger, spicy chicken nuggets, incredible gourmet fries, excellent desserts ( triple chocolate cake my fav.) great cocktails and beautiful hospitality. I had such a great evening.“

“Yes…historically charming“

“Nice spot! The atmosphere is super welcoming, and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I don’t drink alcohol but hubby thought their craft beers are top-notch, with Hurricane Kitty and Mother's Milk being my favorites. They also have live music events that make the place even more fun. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!“

“Rick and Marilyn LOVE this place! It also has LIVE MUSIC!!! Visit!“

“The food was very good! I have dietary restrictions to celiac disease and they were very accommodating I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“I don't usually write reviews but I was so impressed by this restaurant that I felt obliged to let other people know what they were missing. From our cocktails to dessert everything was top notch ... fresh, delicious, and presented beautifully. The margaritas, both Frozen and straight up we're a perfect balance of lime and sweetness with a choice of different salted, sweet or spicy rim flavors. You can also get a flight of three different flavored margaritas including coconut, raspberry, and mango. All were delightful but coconut was the favorite. Our main course of fish tacos and portbella/spinach enchilada was fresh, colorful and delicious served with rice and beans. There are plenty of vegetarian options. The portions are plentiful and the prices are very reasonable. And I can't say enough about the friendly service and staff.... all super friendly and cheery....even the owner Guadalupe came to stop at our table and welcome us to her restaurant with a free dessert of creamy, light, melt in your mouth Key lime pie....save room....YUM! They even welcomed my dog, Goldilocks. What a wonderful find! I will definitely go back there again as often as I can. I had such a lovely evening and even had a conversation with the friendly people at the next table who were regulars. I left with a full belly, a smile on my face and a hug from Guadalupe.“

“Another fantastic meal Front Street Tavern!! Fabulous food (bang-bang shrimp and smash burger my favs, but constantly evolving menu) Staff and owners top notch! So fortunate for Kingston. Do yourself a favor and check it out!!“

“we just left Abbys after having western omelets for breakfast. They were delicious!!“

“Always a good time, whether for sports events or holidays or just a night out!“

“Wonderful lunch on the outdoor patio at Foster’s coach house. Hosts were welcoming and provided great service accommodating our large party - friendly and helpful - setting a stage for a relaxed and fun late afternoon birthday meal. Everyone in our group of 18 enjoyed Fosters - cold drinks, good service, and excellent food - from the Thanksgiving sandwich, French dip, to the cranberry walnut salad! The team at Fosters also sourced a delicious carrot cake 🎂!“

“I live in New York, so we were traveling on our way to the Catskills, and happening to see this on Google Maps. I’m always sus about Mexican spots in small towns, but this place was really good. Everything was spot on, flavors etc. The staff was very friendly as well“

“Service was excellent as was the food!“

“My first visit to Mariner's Harbor in Kingston, NY was a delight. My Blackened Catfish Sandwich with coleslaw on the side was delicious. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was nice. I had a wonderful view of the bustling activity outdoors. I look forward to my next visit. The hamburgers looked delicious as well.“

“We hosted an 8th birthday party here and had a great time! Everyone enjoyed bowling and the arcade area was a big hit! Party room was a little small but it was a good time had by all, and it’s nice to have a nice facility around.“

“My husband and I took a little day trip from Albany today with no real destination in mind, besides checking out Samuels Sweet Shop. As we drove through town, your restaurant caught our eye! After asking the sweet clerk at Sam’s how your food was, we decided to have lunch on her suggestion. And we are so glad we did! The interior of the restaurant is very nice and it was so warm and cozy as we entered. Your staff were wonderful. We each had a drink… I had a Bellini and he chose a beer. Our server was nice enough to look up the brewery his beer was from for us too (nice added touch that he didn’t have to do) We started our meal with calamari. The breading was so delicious and not heavy and the pineapple dipping sauce was a tasty surprise. I ordered the hot chicken sandwich and he opted for steak. My chicken was the perfect blend of hot and sweet and so good. My husband’s steak was perfectly and we both enjoyed the horseradish sauce it was served with. Both served with your homemade shoestring fries. Both, so good! We had a lovely time sitting and conversing. Your waitstaff checking in just enough to make sure we were taken care of and not pushy to get us out. Overall we loved it! We can’t wait to come back in warm weather and try your outdoor seating. I wish I had gotten our servers name, as he deserves the kudos for being so pleasant!“

“Was ok. Nothing terrible about the food but not out of this world broth 🤷🏻‍♀️ . Nice atmosphere. Decently priced. Staff was friendly. Maybe if I tried something other than the noodle bowl ( was just too bland for me) .“
