10 Best Cocktail Bars near Woodstock

“It's a perfect hideaway from the world nestled at the top of the hill in Woodstock. An intimate setting with an entire upstairs that boasts retro arcade games. Though that's not only reason for going.

The cocktail program boasts several spins on classics that are thoughtfully put together & a selection of classics that every bartender should know & execute flawlessly. Mark, the owner has taken pride in his work & it shows with the layout of the bar to the curated selection of premium spirits from smaller producers.

We tried for years & couldn't find a single venue in Woodstock, let alone most of Ulster County that knew how to make a Vieux Carre, a Sazerac, an Improved Whiskey Cocktail, or even a Naked Famous & few if any can or do.

The bar has been here about a year & deserves so much more love & attention from the community. If you haven't been, you're missing out.“

“This is our go to bar every time we visit from Florida. Amazing craft cocktails without the pretentiousness of other craft cocktail bars. Friendly owner/host Paul as well as his staff. Warm chill vibe and eclectic music selection. Also a nice selection of light snacks/finger food. Definitely a must visit when you’re in Kingston.“

“I have to go back another couple of three times at least until I can get to taste it all. Mid-week and it was packed. A bit too loud for conversation but I don't talk with my mouth full of fabulous fresh made gluten free pizza, thick chewy crunchy crust ( not the frozen one every other place uses) whipped ricotta cheese and fresh basil. The house well is stocked with good choices. One note is that because of the crowds frozen cocktails are pre-made so you can't pick your rum.

Dietary restrictions: Top choice for an artisan gluten free pizza ?“

“Usually offers good bread. But is very wishy washy on their "old bread sales" prices. If it's a day old it should be discounted - period. (I have worked for almost four years in a bakery) This is being aggregated by the fact that I was not notified of this pricing structure when I asked for day old bread (with the specific intend to get a discount for something that is not fresh and won't last me as long). Had I been informed about this, I would have just bought the same bread *fresh* - for the *same price*. I feel that the omission of this fact is even done purposely to mislead customers.“
