Best Brunch Restaurants in Rosendale

We love Kips Tavern. The decor, bartender (we always dine at the bar), food (the chicken pot pie is the signature entree), the location in historic Rhinecliff. We will be back.

I dined here alone on a Thursday night in the lovely and warm bar area, which has an intimate feeling. The bartender Matt was charming and made delicious cocktails tailored to my tastes. I had the cigars stuffed with chicken liver pate, and they were scrumptious, must order. My main was roast duck and it was perfectly cooked. I also recommend the creme brulee, which was the best I have had in a long time. Overall a great experience.

A wonderful experience in all respects. It was lovely to have a quiet delicious meal.

My party of 6 thoroughly enjoyed our first experience at Fin & Brew. We were seated at the special “Captain’s Table” which was a unique dining experience. We ate off of the Restaurant Week menu which gave us many choices and there was no skimping on portions. Our waiter, Silvestre was efficient and attentive, and a fun guy! From the minute we entered and were greeted by our sweet hostess, Morgan, we were made to feel special. On the whole, a great dining experience! We will definitely be back !

The view is outstanding and the best of the Hudson Valley. Enjoy the river and wide open space under the shelter with heaters and fireplaces to keep it cozy. The Shakshuka eggs were over cooked but the tomato sauce was tasty and on point. Eggs Benedict was the winner at our table with the wood fired pizza coming in second place.
