50 Best Bars near Valhalla

“From the food to the service to the ambiance of going to your grandmother's for Sunday dinner, everything is amazing.“

“I went with a group of friends for my birthday last night. It was AMAZING. The service was great, everyone was so friendly. The place itself was so clean and cute, really cool vibe. The Apps were great, Hush Puppies and Fried Calamari, yum. I did a make-your-own Seafood Boil. OH MY GOD. The New Zealand Mussels, King Crab and Dungeness Crab was out of this world in the Cajun Butter Sauce. I HIGHLY recommend this spot and will be going back.“

“Loved my first experience here. Stopped in after shopping the town. Bartenders Tommy and Anthony were working and made incredible drinks. They were both very inviting and make you feel at home. I will be back to enjoy the atmosphere and great bartending skills.“

“Love it going back really soon“

“Amazing place! We love the atmosphere, food and drinks!!“

“A hidden hem in Mt Kisco I highly recommend Monarca.“

“I’ve known this crew since their days at Perdition in Hell’s Kitchen, and walking into their new spot felt like no time had passed at all—in the best way possible.

From the moment you step inside, you can tell how much care and intention has gone into everything. The décor is clean and beautifully done, the drink and food menus are thoughtful and creative, and the prices are honestly more than reasonable for the quality you’re getting. It’s clear this is a place built with real passion. But what truly sets them apart is something you can’t fake—the genuine warmth. They’ve created that rare “locals welcome” atmosphere where everyone feels like a regular, whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth.

Seeing Scotty behind the bar again instantly brought me back, and catching up with Sean, his wife, and the rest of the crew made the night feel more like a reunion than just a night out. I laughed, tried some fantastic new drinks, and had great conversations—not just with the staff and loyal regulars, but also with folks who had stopped in before or after a nearby concert, which added such a fun, lively energy to the place.

This spot is an absolute gem. If you’re anywhere nearby—whether you’re heading to a show or just looking for a great night out—do yourself a favor and stop in. You’ll understand immediately why people keep coming back.

And honestly? The only downside is that they’re no longer in Hell’s Kitchen… because I’d be there all the time.“

“Amazing drinks, the atmosphere is rustic, the food is different, delicious , fresh and tasty. The Owner and staff go above and beyond. If you’re in the area or a local this place is 100% recommended!!“

“Chef Elmer is highly skilled and talented. The quality of the ingredients, the methods of cooking/raw and the spectacular presentation is world class! The tasting menu is one of the best I've had. Highly recommend!“

“As usual, we had a lovely time. Fun to watch the USA soccer team and they won! Service = great. The food was mostly good but fish & chips a little soggy evidently. And it was a REALLY hot evening outside. The temp inside Emma's, however, was a little too chilly. But a wonderful evening! Thanks!“

“I don’t like beer, they always have plenty of other options. The selection changes. I enjoy the variety. They have events. I haven’t done the table top gaming night yet, but it looks fun.

It’s a good spot. easy to get to by car or train.“

“Great service and great food ! Beautiful outdoor space w fireplace“

“great intimate venue. wonderful array of music“

“Good was OK....Mac & cheese with bacon had no flavor whatsoever although the filet tips in the appetizer section was very good....service was great!!! Very friendly...I was very surprised when I walked in at how dark it was because the curtains were closed. Once they opened the curtains it was better.“

“Beautiful view we sat right by the water The food was very good“

“Thank you for the high-quality service. The drinks are fresh, the service is neat, and the staff is polite and attentive. The convenient location and well-designed interior create a comfortable environment for relaxation. I highly recommend it.“

“Friendly neighborhood bar in Larchmont, NY with good bartenders and a good jukebox and friendly patrons. Recommend. I like to play my favorite Jambands and classic rock/reggae on the jukebox such as Grateful Dead, Dylan, Widespread Panic, Moe., CCR, Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Kansas, Tesla etc.“

“Focus Immunity was playing tonight. Great cover band. Great sound too. Often places have muddy sound, but this really good. Vocals awesome. Band great over all. Nod to the drummer, though everyone was outstanding .

Service was great as was the food. A good sized crowd, (my age group 40+) though not to busy. Nice look and feel, great place to take the family or what have you.“

“We had so much fun having Mobile Pie Truck for our daughter’s Sweet 16. Delicious pies and salads. They kept our guests happy all night. Great job guys! Grazie Mille!“

“Vegan Friendly ❤️🩷 Great place.“

“Great night out fun place“

“This is as original as stepping into a real pub in Ireland. The bar has the atmosphere and hospitality you’d expect. The tables are set up comfortably and clean. Our waitress Meghan was an angel. Sweet and hard working. If you wait a bit it’s all good, just relax and get a drink because when the food comes it’s excellent!!!! Fish and Chips and their Wings are simply the best! The owner Declan is a fine gentleman as he walks around and says hello. Walk in with the right attitude and your experience will outshine your expectations!!!“

“Food was really good. Wonderful atmosphere and excellent service!“

“On December 12th my law office had their holiday luncheon at this wonderful restaurant. I also ordered a tray of meat lasagna for Christmas. If you have never had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant, I suggest you run - do not pass go - and get your butt there and eat the most delicous food on this planet. The chef created the meat lasagna - a simple dish - and elevated to something that just melts in your mouth with deliciousness. LOVE LOVE LOVE this restaurant!!“

“This place is an amazing “Staycation”. Anna Maria runs an amazing experience. The vibe is awesome, everyone is super friendly. There’s a happiness energy that is contagious. Great wine and food selections. Santos is an extremely attentive waiter with great recommendations. It’s like Rye’s version of Cheers. The live band brings everyone together. Bravo Anna Maria.“

“Fantastic local place with the best wings around!“

“Tuck’d Away has the BEST brunch in the area. I never had a more diverse brunch in my life. the entire staff is very attentive and professional. Michael is the best owner in the world I ever met - so fun to be around and cares about the community. Jason is a very fun and friendly bartender and Stephanie and the serving staff always make it feel like you belong. Halloween was so fun and I loved how he had a costume contest- that Mcdonlads Girl is VIP - she won. Oh and tinkerbell was cool too 🤣👍📸“

“Pete's Steakhouse is superb — the food, the ambiance, the service, all absolutely amazing. We always look forward to dinner here. Everything on the menu is delicious, and the service is unbelievable, they truly go the extra mile to cater to your needs in such a pleasant, friendly way.“

“I have had nothing but positive experiences with both customer service as well as products. Shout out to Tahj who is quite knowledgeable and always pleasantly helpful. Of course I keep returning and recommending. Do your self a favor and stop in.“

“Stopped in on St. Patrick's day for dinner. Took a little time for a table but not bad. Place was packed, live band playing. Band took a break for a Celtic dance group to put on a show. As packed as it was it still was a reasonable time for service. Potato and bacon soup and a grilled cheese burger was great. Will definitely be back again.“

“Great space to chill and be merry“

“The Tapp is the quintessential local bar. The staff are very friendly, the burgers are phenomenal (as is everything else on the menu), and the prices are more than reasonable. If you find yourself in Tarrytown for shopping or seeing a show at The Music Hall, make a stop at The Tapp a part of the experience. Better still, make the trip just to visit The Tapp alone. It really is a great place to hang out with friends, catch a singer, play Tuesday Night Trivia, or have a terrific meal.“

“The Jazz Forum was a unique and special experience. Samuel Martinelli and his quartet are seasoned musicians with a delightful passion in their performance. They were outstanding . The service on the overall was on point . Courteous and inviting . The drinks and food are commendable .“

“Service is friendly and attentive. Food is good, but expect to pay premium. Look ahead at the menu so you know what to expect. Parking lot accessible via William Street. Far walk for anyone with any impairment. There is a cut-through walkway from the lot to the restaurant but you still have to walk all the way to the front to gain access. Outdoor seating is lovely. Music is played at at level where it's easy to hold conversation and you don't have to talk above it. Always a good idea to phone ahead for a reservation.

Overall I liked this restaurant and the ambiance, and I've been to similar restaurants, but felt this was a bit expensive for my taste. Personal Pizza was $19 and honestly nothing special in my opinion. The Chicken cutlet was delicious but didn't come with anything, no sauce/side, so that's all it was (just to give you some points of reference).“

“Great service and even better memory. Highly recommended.“

“It really just doesn't get any better“

“Great food and great atmosphere! Nice Pl., Tucktaway in Mount Kisco, New York. Great alfresco dining as well as indoor dining. Staff is great as well!“

“Think of the last time you were in some little beach town or ski village and stumbled on a totally non-contrived bar that only the locals know about. Now imagine that bar was plucked right out of that place and put in the middle of Rye. That's The Pub. It's a hole-in-the-wall dive bar that's perfectly out of place in Rye. The bartender has a heavy hand, the drinks are cheap, and it's the ideal location to catch up with an old friend.“

“Wonderful dinner. Gracious owner. Great creative cocktails and desserts“

“Really fun bar fun crowd great staff! 10/10 will be back! 👍“

“My buddy and I had an excellent time last night at Pour -- great whiskey selection, genuinely friendly owner/staff, and a lively atmosphere. Thanks to Anthony, Dave, and Jules (Diana!) for a terrific night. We'll definitely be back!“

“I first visited this restaurant when they opened in 2016. A decade later, I happened to be visiting the area and stopped off here for lunch with my boyfriend. I can honestly say this place hasn't lost their touch.
The restaurant is dark and cozy with a fireplace in the back, making it a perfect spot for a romantic dinner or nice lunch. The servers are all well-versed in the menu items and oyster selection. The restaurant usually has some great specials that are always worth trying out.
This visit was somewhat brief so we only got mains. The special of the day was swordfish. They offer the option to choose your prep style so we each got the swordfish; I tried the lemon butter sauce and my boyfriend got the red pepper sauce. Both were perfectly prepared and delicious. We also shared a side of the grilled asparagus which was perfectly cooked.
A solid 10/10. Highly recommended for any foodies as this place also has some fantastic non-seafood options.“

“Good food and friendly staff.“

“The best Mediterranean food in Westchester. Great for parties, date night, and catching up with old friends. Come in and have a meal. You won't regret it!“

“My family and I ordered several appetizers, and every one of them was delicious and full of flavor. The food was fresh, well-prepared, and exceeded our expectations.

Overall, we had a wonderful time. The welcoming atmosphere and outstanding service made for a truly enjoyable dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to coming back.“

“I’ve been coming to Casa Tequila for the past 5 years, and every visit has been an amazing experience. The food is consistently delicious, full of flavor, and always fresh. The drinks are excellent and never disappoint.

What truly sets Casa Tequila apart is the incredible atmosphere and staff. The restaurant has such a fun, welcoming vibe, and the staff always go above and beyond to make every visit enjoyable. They treat you like family and provide outstanding service every time.

If you’re looking for amazing food, fantastic drinks, and an unforgettable dining experience, I highly recommend Casa Tequila.

I look forward to coming back again and again!“

“Excelente 👌todas sus atenciones“

“Bar attached to the Sonesta White Plains hotel. Limited option for drinks and food, but they are nominally priced when compared to other restaurants nearby. I had steak, it was perfectly cooked and sumptuous. And had egg benedict for breakfast, all tastes good.“

“Very nice dining experience. The restaurant is quiet so it’s easy to converse. All our meals were delicious, and staff was friendly. Would have been five stars but once we received our main course the staff was less attentive. We had to flag them down to get our plates cleared and to get dessert and the check.“
