Wonderful service, cute business, great food. A bit of a wait they claim is from being short staffed. Wonder how the pay is…
All staffs were very rude. They didn’t serve us water. So we had to ask them by ourselves to get water. And they never cared our table even they saw our table that there were some finished plates on. We had to ask every single things to get right service. And seemed like they cheated us behind our back. when we look behind of us, three staffs were watching us at the same time. What a rudes!
We went on a Saturday and it was great! The service and food were very good. My family and I enjoyed the food a lot. I got the eggs with prosciutto, fig, arugula, green apple and home fries and it was so delicious and satisfying! The portion was also fairly generous. We also shared a tall stack of the gluten free pancakes which I was impressed with - they were very fluffy and similar to non gf pancakes! I had a buttered spiced cider rum which was very tasty. We were very pleasantly surprised by Hudson Hil’s Café, worth a visit if in the area!
Friendly staff and great food. Wish I had got the triple pancake stack however!
The breakfast was delicious and then drinks were even better. Customer service was great. Long lines since I found out theyre great at their food. I really recommend it.
Super cozy vibes! Cara(Kara?) was really friendly and attentive to our tables needs :) The food was delicious and a perfect way to refuel after a long hike.
We asked for seating outdoors, there were visible empty tables for our party of three but.....we were refused a table....I guess we were the wrong color...a tad too tan with a bit too much curly...Ah well maybe in another more integrated...color-blind life.
Very comfort brunch spot in cold spring. food and service was good. better to get here before 11:30 otherwise you would wait a little long in the weekends.
Always have a great breakfast at this place before we go on our hike. The waitstaff and hosts are so friendly . Overall, great experience.
Great place to enjoy breakfast or lunch with family. Good service and excellent quality food. I wish the premises had a little bit more space, and so it can feel a bit crowded. If space is not an issue for you, then you will feel at comfort and in good company! Will continue to come back here with the family!
The burger tasted so nice and the homemade chips were so delicious! Nice brunch in Cold Spring.
Superb!!! I ordered the Creole Eggs Benedict and they were stupendous! I have nothing to compare it to, I just loved them and can’t wait to be back and order them again. I highly recommend this place!
Loved the food here! The farm burger is so fresh & filling. The meat is v tasty and flavorful. I would definitely try it again but the wait is crazy after a hike even if you have a reservation dont expect to get your place on time.
Food was very good. Beef hash and eggs tasty. Quaker Creek sausage links came out cold be quickly rectified. Dessert. Peach Ginger Blueberry pie. Amazing!!!!!!
I’m going against the grain on this one. Maybe it’s just what we ordered, but there was no question that the service was slow and gave of an irritated vibe. The salads we ordered were just simple greens and raw vegetables. Between the two of us it is need up being $50 because we ordered simple salads with salmon added. I didn’t find value or delight in anything we ordered.
I got the omlettes option for breakfast which comes with a 3 egg omlette with 3 fillings of your choice, country potatoes and toast. The omlette was really good and generious in terms of fillings. Definitely recommend this spot for a nice lazy brunch.Update: came here again and got Fish tacos and Salmon burger. Both were alright.
Favorite place to go to when I’m in Cold Spring. Food is always great! And servers are wonderful.
We came in to this place without any expectations and we got reworded with a very good meal.Lets get it out of the way first. This place is not like the places in the city which you can time by the seconds hand on your watch. The waitress is going to move slower than you may want. But the at is the charm of the place. They want you to sit back, take your time, chat with your friends and or family while your food is lovingly prepared and brought to you.My family ordered the following:1) Eggs with Figs and procieuto for my wife.2) Midium rare steak with egg for me.3) Kids burger on an English muffin.My family was very happy with the meal. My child ate the entire burger and asked for slice of my steak to top off. My wifes food was very yummy as well. She promised to come back next time we pass through this area. For the price and the experience, I give this place an A grade. Would have give an A+ of the watres was able to get to our table a few minutes faster. But I am somewhat not picking.Recommend to bring g family and kids.They have a kids menu.Not weelchare accessible.Street parking only.Bathrooms are clean.
A delightful gem in the quaint Cold Spring neighborhood.Coming from NYC and being a vegetarian, I’m always on the lookout for farm-fresh, quality eateries when I venture outside my stomping ground. I was very happy with the foods, flavors, and service at Hudson Hil’s.My boyfriend and I ordered omelets and split lemon ricotta pancakes. No one thing stood out to warrant a 5-star review, but it was perfect enough for us and our needs the day we visited. Would recommend.
After a whole morning of hiking, we ended up coming here for a late lunch and since there was just 2 of us our waiting time wasnt more than couple of minutes. The staff are very friendly and the food was pretty good and all our dietary restrictions were taken care of wonderfully. The portions are neither too big or too little. We had the veggie quinoa sandwich burger and a side salad along with orange and apple juice.
Definitely a must go. Food is really good and freshly made. Service is very good. It definitely gets crowded on the weekends.
There are many reasons to love this place . The food was excellent, both of our eggs benedict were perfectly cooked, the creole special was a nice balance of flavor and spice but their smoked salmon was just the most delicious! The restaurant is cute, cozy, if you go when its not too cold and can dine outside its so worth the wait because great food and an amazing view makes for the best experience. Also our service was lovely.
One of my favorite brunch places, period. Always reliably delicious, can’t go wrong with anything on their menu. I also unexpectedly liked the lavender latte.
Lovely little place, local and bright, excellent food, nice drink selection and various memorable desserts.
More hype than hip. Potatoes were barely warm. Staff seemed more concerned with closing early due to storm. Room for improvement.
Nice place to have a breakfast, good and friendly customer Service.
A local gem! Ive been here twice and the fact that they have frequently varying brunch specials is amazing. This time around I had Cowboy Omelette with jalepeno cheddar biscuits. Holy cow! Delicious! In the beautifully quaint Cold Springs. Will stop by everytime Im in the area for sure.
The service was good but the place was super crowded. No vegetarian options other than pancakes though!
Easily the best place to eat on that road, you can see why its busy and so many people waiting. Service and food was excellent! Very delicious and very well priced, just spot on!
Good environment and good food. Enjoyed a nice Sunday brunch here.
The best family run cafe in the Hudson Valley! Food was creative and delicious, service was warm and welcoming, a must go!
Great spot for a drink while walking the town
Great menu, great staff! Burger was good, salad was good and wine was also good
A great place to stop before jumping on the train! The egg’s Benedict with salmon was awesome.
Went on the Seastreak to Cold Springs NY for a nice day. Stopped into the Hudson Hils Cafe for the first time and had a fabulous lunch! It was busy but everyone was seated promptly and the food came out very quickly! The food was so delicious and yummy!! Highly recommended!!
Omelet was good but a different color yellow. Service was ok. Prices really high.
After our hiking/Running a few of us stop in for brunch, nice atmosphere, great service and the food was excellent!
This is one of my favorite spots in the Hudson Valley. The menu is inventive and unique, the food is always fresh and super tasty, and the staff is friendly and attentive.My *only* negative is that during the summer, the wait for a table can be an hour (or more)... but its totally worth it. :-)If youre looking to add a regular to your roster of fave places, go to Hudson Hils NOW.Wait... forget I said that... you really want to go somewhere else...
This is the best breakfast in the Hudson valley IMHO. Been eating here for years, every time Im up that way I make a point to stop in. Food is all local, fresh, and exceptionally flavorful. The awesome daily quiche is enough to make me come back. Its really hard to go wrong here.
Tasty food good service. Bit expensive but good portions
This place is handling covid really well. We came here for brunch on a Sunday and it was really busy. But I think that’s the state of affairs every Sunday. So we put our name down for about an hour after we got there and went for a Riverwalk which I highly recommend and then came back.The space that they have right now for Covid has maybe four tables in the dining room two tables in the back and three tables out front. That might change of course given that winter is on its way.We were seated almost immediately and the stuff is really good with getting a order in and getting the food to the table very quickly. I tried the Cajun breakfast - they use pork andouille sausage, that’s my ideal type of sausage. The food was well prepared and delicious.I also tried the hot toddy which was excellently made, I highly recommend it. My friend had the burger which she said was outstanding and the curly fries where crispy and really Well seasoned. I highly recommend them. unfortunately I didn’t like the pies very much I thought they were just sort of average. We tried the blueberry pie and the pecan pieService was very quick very efficient however I do think that they tried to rush us a little bit because they needed the table back. Completely understandable but giving us a heads up or letting us know what our window of time was would’ve been helpful. Still I would come back here if I’m ever in the area.
Nice hospitality. My daughter and I loved the soft tacos (both the vegetarian and the fried catfish). The the fig, granny Smith apple and Gouda grilled cheese was yummy! Even the water they served was tasty. We will be back to Hudson Hils again and again!
A lovely restaurant in a super cute town. Friendly, helpful staff, and a menu to die for. Locally sourced ingredients are always a plus, but they dont guarantee an amazing meal. HHC provides both. We split the Mac and cheese and the Babka French toast. The best meal Ive had in a long time. The Mac and cheese is so rich, savory, and just a little bit sweet, with lovely sneak attacks of chorizo and pepperoncini. The homemade french toast was equally amazing. What seals the deal on this sweet bounty is the espresso cream cheese. Creamy and rich without being overwhelming, a perfect balance to the chocolate and cinnamon. Ill be making the trip from the city back to Cold Spring just to visit this place again. Cannot recommend enough.
Nice vibe and breakfast!
We got a late lunch here after going to the storm king art center. I had the eggs Creole, which was fantastic. Everyone else wanted tacos and I heard those were pretty good. The service was also very good. The one disappointment was the baked goods we took with us to go after our meal. We got 3 kinds, none of which were worth the calories: a vaguely lemony lemon cookie with a strange texture, oddly poofy chocolate chip cookies that had 2 chocolate chips each, and brownies with almost no chocolate flavor. Go here for the main course but definitely look elsewhere for dessert
Live this place, food is super fresh and everything looks delicious, cant wait to come back for brunch!
Every dish and every ingredient is so fresh. Ive only been here for breakfast/brunch so I cant really comment on their lunch menu, but what Ive had so far has been outstanding. Their specials are unique too. I remember this one dish that had jalapeno cornbread, still dreaming about it. Makes you wish the week went faster so you could be here for weekend brunch.
Love this place. My husband and I drive from Queens, NY to have my favorite dish - Hudson Hils Shirred Eggs...Amazing!!
Delicious food! Im not a vegetarian but I had the Honey goat cheese sandwich and it was amazing. No meat and Im still dreaming about it. Friendly staff and nice ambiance.
It’s the busiest restaurant on Main St, so I decided to give it a try. Food was fresh, delicious and big portioned. I will definitely come back to try other dishes on the menu.
Excellent food, but its a bit crowed.
This place is always busy and the last two times we were in Cold Spring the wait was too long, but today we planned ahead and made a reservation. Menu has a lot of variety of breakfast and lunch options. We ate outside under the heater which was a good option but inside looks inviting and comfortable too. Portions are generous and food is quality.
Always delicious food. Very friendly staff
This is such a charming Cafe and the food was very good. Sitting outside on the porch was like old times when life was simpler.
Good portions and fair prices and great service. Feels like youre at home.
Had the most delicious lunch outside on their porch today!!!
Very good variety of Breakfast. Different but good.
First time eating breakfast here. I cannot comment on breakfast dishes with eggs, but my pancakes were hard and tasted like cardboard. More disappointing was the syrup - Not sure what is was - it looked like molasses and had no taste. In a country area you would expect they would strictly serve pure maple syrup. Service was sloppy.
Overpriced... food was not great. Customer service was not good at all!!
Great place for brunch.Pancakes are my favourite!!!
I stumbled on this restaurant while passing through Cold Spring. Not bad, good coffee, but Ive had better Eggs Benedict. I know that poached eggs are usually made ahead of time and held but these came out just cooler than room temperature. I think it was actually the sauce that made them that warm. Home fries were pretty good though. Busy place but the service was still pretty quick despite a full dining room. Overall, Id give it another try before dismissing it, if for no other reason than because there seemed to be a number of regulars/locals.
Food is very good. Staff is very unwelcoming. Visited this weekend for my mothers 84th bday. Had a reservation, that was made well in advance, for 1:00. My sister and her daughter drove 2 hrs from NJ. Never told that the reservation was for 1 hr.! I know these are unusual times and businesses need a quicker turnover due to limited seating, but at least inform the customer at the time of making the reservation. We would have decided on another venue. After about 1.5 hrs, a manager(?) came over to our table to inform us that reservations are usually for 1 hr and that they needed the table. No finesse, no apology, no can I get you anything else. The whole experience was sort of demeaning and embarrassing, and Im so sorry that my mother had to experience that sort of treatment.
Nice place, friendly staff. Expect to pay Manhattan prices.
Creole eggs is really special. Thin corn bread topped with andouille sausage, poached eggs, a light hollandaise and shrimp! Just delicious. Great atmosphere and staff.
Went here for brunch. Got the Mama’s Rose Garden drink which was great. We ordered some different dishes- all were great. Service was quick & they did not rush us out when we were stalling because of a rain storm. Will be back!
Great atmosphere and food.
After a great morning of hiking in Cold Springs we needed some nourishment to refuel. Thankfully, the restaurant was able to accommodate all 8 of us to sit outside. The service was super nice and the waitress was super patient as a large group can be but we were hungry and ready to order. It was a pleasant day so we sat outside in the patio as we also had a dog. The food came out pretty quickly and everyone was happy with their choice of food. Food with a smile is what I remembered.
This is my favorite place in town for a homey breakfast or lunch. It has a creative brunch style menu. Delicious interesting egg dishes, french toast, sandwiches and salads! The coffee is the best and you can buy it two stores down at the Country Goose if you like it. They have a variety of prosecco based drinks as well as Bloody Marys, tequila cocktails and wine but there is not a bar area. My favorite treats are the home made scones. They also sell muffins and pies. I think they are only open for breakfast and lunch. It has a very casual county atmosphere sometimes there can be a wait for seating, but they get you in and out without feeling rushed. Excellent friendly service! Credit cards are accepted.
Clean small very efficient with professional staff. Recommend for others would like to Dine in.
A beautiful day dining outside.The chicken pesto sandwich was the best Ive ever had. Nice menu and lovely staff.
Im addicted to their egg, prosciutto, goat cheese and fig dish. Its amazing. Their service staff are incredible too. Theres always a wait, but theyre very efficient. Its the best brunch spot in the whole area.
Great atmosphere, baby friendly. Food was great and good prices as well. Very welcoming cozy place. Waitresses did a great job. Coffee was good too. Cant wait to come back and taste their lunch. Bacon is a must have. They had good health options as well.
I was glad to find that they had vegan options for me the food was great. Prepared just like I asked. staff was please and helpful. My Gf loved her lemon ricotta pancakes real beef hash and country fries Oh she loved her eggs with fig and prosciutto
Great food and great service, in a charming spot. The lemon ricotta pancakes were a let down (a bit rubbery, and we couldnt taste or feel the presence of the ricotta...or the lemon, actually...seemed like plain old pancakes), and the potatoes could be much crispier, but otherwise all the food Ive had there is delicious. Will definitely be back again and will keep bringing friends there.
Service and food was delicious and very courteous from staff. Always a stop when in Cold Spring.
Prices are reasonable. Food is well prepared. Be warned that youll get the sticky corn syrup for your pancakes, if you dont buy the $3 little bottle of maple syrup. Service is not that great. You could come here everyday and have the same waitress--she definitely wont remember you. There are long lines at times. I had a gift certificate, which I definitely appreciated, but I couldnt wait for it to be used up.
If you love great breakfast food, GO HERE! I am a huge fan of biscuits with sausage gravy and this place blew all others completely out of the water! Also had the chocolate banks French toast - equally amazing! Hils was busy and buzzing through our whole visit, but it wasnt a terrible wait time, was well worth the wait, the staff was amazing and the food was the absolute BEST!
The food was delicious and the service was great.
A very cute restaurant! Ranch was amazing, and they had a very wide variety of options to choose from. If you’re GF or Vegan, this place has options for you. The products are fresh and the service is quick, but the quickness does not take away from the quality. Definitely recommend to give this place a try! Will definitely come again.
Great breakfast. Had the burrito, which was not only big but delicious. You can sit outside during nice days, though inside the restaurant is clean and neat. Waitress was outstanding. Will definitely come again!!
Food was ok , but the potato chips were burnt also its a lil pricey for what you get.On the up side my chocolate tart which was flourless was good.P.S staff should always wear gloves when cutting the deserts and serving it , their hands shouldnt be touching the food.🙄
Holy moly where to start? Great brunch, friendly staff. Dont miss out on their amazing muffins and scones that they cut in half and toast. Get there early on Sundays, the line can get intense. I recommend the chicken pesto sandwich, its the bomb. The coffee is outstanding too!
This is obviously one of the best restaurants in the area. Anytime I go there I am very happy. They always keep their high standard service and the highest level of meals they offer. You surely will enjoy this this restaurant. Warmly recommended.
Homey, good service, delicious food. Many choices, good prices, great location. Great biscuits. One point off for many bees/wasps at entranceway. While I understand many people dont want to kill certain wildlife, those of us allergic to bee stings would appreciate the owners having a professional come in to at least find a way to repel them. Without the bees, Id give this eatery 5 stars.
Always a pleasant experience here although due to popularity, there may be a bit of a wait. A lot of locally sourced items for the meals. Return customer.
What a colossal disappointment this place was. First off, let me give praise where it’s due- the coffee was pretty good. We also got the distinct impression that if you’re a local you get an entirely different level of service than we experienced. What we got was exactly the kind of hospitality you’d expect from a Wall Street analyst.....The pancakes were good, but nothing special, my hash was rather unremarkable and one of my 2 “over easy” eggs had a broken yolk that had been cooked through, but they seemed to think it was ok to serve it anyway. My wife ordered the dish that made us so excited to eat here in the first place- the “Eggs Creole” which had totally flavorless potatoes and was overall disappointing.It’s not that there weren’t bright spots. The hollandaise was well done, the sausage in my wife’s dish was good and like I said they made a decent cappuccino. It was all just so much more off-putting as we felt like uninvited guests to a fancy brunch; tolerated though clearly unwelcome.
A gem. Delicious: (1) fish tacos - tasty fish, well seasoned/fried and sauce proportions were great, rice/beans were ok; (2) raw power salad - great mix of veg seasoned perfectly, no wilted or browned leaves means attention to quality; (3) burger - my friends ate this and loved it, juicy. Service was friendly and expedient. Great option as you pass through Cold Spring, not that many options like this on Main St.
Great stop in a super cute town. Had the egg, fig & prosciutto toast - so yummy! Pomegranate iced tea was tasty and not too sweet. Always had a line out front so be ready to wait (but that’s always a great sign, too!)
This is a top notch breakfast spot! We were a party of (3), and each of us ordered something different to give us a good sample. Needless to say, EVERYTHING was tasty! The coffee, food, and service were excellent. I highly recommend.
Greeted by lovely servers, food was served hot and fast (but not to fast that you feel like they are trying to get rid of you)They have a varied menu that offer a great lunch selection as well as alcoholic beverages.... I always recommend getting a glass of Prosecco!A perfect spot for lunch.... Stop here and see for yourself
This cafe is popular lunch time spot, but we came here late - around 2.30 PM on Sunday and were able to easily get a spot. We ordered from breakfast menu which is conveniently available all day and had our food within minutes. Food was really good and service was above and beyond. Highly recommended!
I love this cafe and its the only place we eat at when we go spend a few hours at Cold Springs. Food is great but I wasnt happy with the shrimp/avocado salad. They only put 4 shrimps on the plate! Not worth the money in my opinion.
This is such a great hidden gem - staff is cordial, attentive, and know their menu very well. Food is delicious and always fresh. Price tends to be a bit high but never disappointed to spend an extra dime here. Locations is great having many thrift stores in the surrounding area - and after a great meal make sure you walk down to the train station and ejoy the beautiful Hudson view!
Certainly $$ but they are worth it. The portions are sizable and the foods great. On Sunday, my family waited 30 min. The place is very popular to locals and visitors. The ambience looks old American style. Certainly enjoyable in Fall and Winter.
Really nice breakfast / lunch spot. We had a late breakfast, Beef Hash and Beef Tostadas. Service is fast like the city and staff are friendly and warm. Overall great vibe. Will definitely return.
Weve eaten here a few times now, food is always fresh and unique (think grilled cheese with fig, apples, bacon, and Gouda). My mother in law has severe celiac, and the waitress and chef worked with her one-on-one to find something she could enjoy, and she raved about the taste! Highly recommend
After a long hike, this was a great place to recharge! The grilled cheese with apples and bacon was fantastic! Of course the hot toddy and hot chocolate with amaretto really warmed us all up!!
Decent food, good service, but expect a long wait. This is one of the better places to take your family for a bite to eat around this quaint area. Plenty of seating, and can accommodate large groups. They offer vegan and Vegetarian options as well.
Loved the food! Fresh, well done and the guys who work over there are kind and very professional! The place is safe and clean, and there is outdoor to grab your food and eat outside !
My wife and I love to come here for breakfast every month or so - we trek about 40+ minutes from White Plains - its a great excursion on the weekend or if you have a free weekday to make you feel like youre on vacation even if youre (relatively) local. Their signature breakfast dish is a rotating quiche but everything on the menu is great. After breakfast there are tons of shops to peruse along the main street, and popular hiking spots nearby - google: breakneck ridge
Went there for brunch. AmazingAs was the waitstaff (attentive too) even though they were packed with a waitlist. I had the eggs over pancetta bacon. Delicious. My friend had the eggs benedict and a pancake. She ate it all :) I’ll definitley be back. There are so many delicious things on the menu.
I was there last Saturday, 6/13/20. I ordered a simple salmon salad for take away. My friend and I walked down to the river to eat. When I opened the bag there were no utensils to eat with, no salad dressing and no napkin.
Went for lunch Saturday. No sign of a hostess to greet us at first, but they have a nice set up with a bright and cheery environment, and served great food!Slightly pricier then I anticipated, but Id still call them a fair value.
Awful burgers. Fries taste like was fried in 1000 years oil. Kid’s burger was with plenty of hot peppers. Was asked to redo without peppers and salt. Redone with same quantity of peppers )). Not a great place to eat. Would never be back again. However service is fine
Food taste was good but they asked us if we want chips, apple sauce or fries with our food so i thought it came with it but they charged extra for almost everything. if it is extra, they should have told us earlier. too many people.. too long wait..
I moved to Cold Spring over a year ago and have brunch here almost every Sunday. The lemon-blueberry-ricotta pancakes (a sometime special, and special treat) are simply divine, and their H H grilled cheese is unique and unlike any youve ever had...and absolutely fantastic! Country potatoes and speciality quiches are always a hit as well. The staff are cheerful, professional, and super friendly. My favorite place!
Busy place, but the service was good. The food was delicious. I had the veggie burger which was very tasty. Prosecco lovers make note that they have a list of prosecco drinks that all look yummy.
I really liked this spot when I visited after hiking a nearby trail. I just got some quick pancakes...it was like 5 bucks and totally delicious (other dishes seemed a bit pricey, but you be the judge).Friendly staff for sure, and a beautiful town.
Food was very good, service was great, but they were short-staffed and the hostess did not handle it well. I understand being overwhelmed, but thats not an excuse to be rude with customers who were patiently waiting. Bad start, but good experience after
Great place for breakfast and brunch. Everything we had was delicious and the kids menu was more than great (very generous size portions). The French toast on chocolate babka was delicious!
Service was pretty slow and our waitress was not very pleasant. Our salmon blt was great. Homemade potatoes chips where pretty burnt and hit and miss with seasoning. French toast was terrible and very soggy.
The food was great. I am giving three stars for the poor service. During our visit, we were seated outside (which didnt really feel like an actual area for dining) and felt like the forgotten customers. Which is not a good feeling when you paying for the service. If we are ever back in town, i would stay away from this place.
Food and service were good, but some menu items are expensive for what they are...$9 for three pancakes, for example. >$12 for two eggs with sides.
Excellent service food and atmosphere. Our server Cara was especially patient with requests.
Get the whole wheat pancakes. They’re amazing! The wheat tastes almost like buckwheat… great flavor!
Great food and service. Went for brunch and it has a good variety. Friendly staff
Fantastic Breakfast/Brunch! Quaint local spot that serves delicious local produce. The Lemon Ricotta pancakes were light, fluffy and delicious. Will be going back and highly recommend!
Lines out the door for brunch for a reason. Good food. Speedy service, but they do not rush you to leave. Friendly staff. Good prices. Enjoy stopping here when I’m in town.
Love this farm to table restaurant for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Very nice food, fresh, locally sourced ingredients, carefully prepared.
I have to say such a beautiful place bed and breakfast. Soon as you walk in the door you think wow I want to be here. Then you end up standing at the front desk while workers are walking by you, without saying a word. You think okay theyre busy trying to get their stuff done. Then you have the hostess/ manager Asian lady that turns her back on you while shes looking in her book. No one greeted us at the door. There was no please wait Ill be with you in a minute how many in your party. I watched three couples leave and then I decided my turn a party of 4 we walked out. the couple behind me ended up walking out. If I was the owner of this Cafe I would definitely look into hiring people that properly greet customers/ guest.
Very great service and good food prices. Eggs were made well with bacon and potatoes. Drinks were a little pricey. Would be cool if they had a brunch special that comes with a drink.
Put your name in and know that the wait will be worth it! With a menu as eclectic as its patrons, youll make it a point to hot this spot every time youre in town. Tip: if youre looking to have an adult beverage, youll want to make that known to the host(ess). Half of the establishment is dry and the other half serves alcohol. Its a weird zoning issue thing but as with everything, knowing is half the battle!
It was a very warm day (over 80 degrees) & they did not have any air on so that does not enhance the experience. I had the French toast & did not like it at all - had an odd taste.
OMG! This place is awesome. We found from yelp as it had very nice reviews and decided to give a shot. We ordered omlettes and pancakes with coffee. It was the best I have ever had in NY. The pancakes with berries was very tasty. I totally recommend this place. Eventhough you mau need to wait some to get a table, totally worth it.
Our go-to spot for when we have out-of-town guests. They always offer friendly service.Be sure to make reservations if youre planning to visit on a Saturday or Sunday, becaus this place gets packed!Prices are fair, but not what we would call cheap.
The food is wonderfully prepared, delicious specials, very friendly staff. One of the first places to open, so great if you dont feel like waiting for your hotel breakfast.
Tasty fresh dishes in casual cafe style setting. Can go for the traditional fried chips but the menu has much nicer, tastier options. Nice local ales available too.
We had a bit of a wait on our early Sunday morning visit, but the experience was well worth it! The sandwich and breakfast dish we got were both excellent and sitting on the porch was a real pleasure.
Absolutely fabulous. The food is fresh and taste locally sourced. The Bloogy Marys are out of this world. The desserts are made in house and amazing. A most try
Pesto chicken sandwiche was great.
This might be my favorite brunch place of all time. The food is delicious and fresh with good portions. I especially love their many prosecco drink options
The best place in town for a nice healthy breakfast or lunch. My favorite dish is their quiche of the day, whatever it is.
Best homemade baked goods! (Strawberry rhubarb muffin and blackberry ricotta scone!) Also great sandwiches, soups, and omelets! A must-visit.
The food is great. Was surprised at how quick it was prepared and brought to the table, way faster than most. Came here with my family and it was perfect! Will be coming back.
This rustic country style breakfast place is simply perfect. The food is fresh, creative and delicious. The servers here are hospitable. Worth the wait.
The food was great and service was wonderful! Cant wait to go back. Got a delicious omelet and had a nice peaceful breakfast with family.
Really great eggs Benedict with lox. There were a lot of great sounding dishes in the menu for both lunch and breakfast. Ill have to come back to try more of them.
Lovely little spot for brunch/lunch. Food was great. Simple and delicious. Service was timely and hospitality warm.
Best cobb salad. Huge portion. Fresh and varieties of greens. Relaxing atmosphere. Very friendly and efficient serving staff. I hope this place will be here to serve good food for years to come.
Pretty great vegan food / vegan options! Seating is tight and you may end up waiting if you go at a busy time, but... the food (especially if youre vegan) is quite good!
The eggs with the goat cheese, figs and pancetta were unreal. The coffee is nice too. Cute place and dog friendly
Order the fig grilled cheese to go and it was so yummy! Parking was a challenge for me though. It was very busy on Saturday.
Had eaten there in the summer outside and loved it. This time my husband and I ate inside by the fireplace - so cozy. Great good always!
Food quite bland and ordinary but more expensive then other places.
Great place for breakfast, brunch, or lunch.Fresh, organic, large servings.Wonderful atmosphere, nicely situated on Main St surrounded by plenty of other nice venues to walk around and visit afterwards.Highly recommended.
Favorite breakfast place in Cold Spring. Good food, great staff. Lines are long at the weekend, but during the week you can always get a table.
Delicious food and friendly service. Worth the wait if there is one.
We were there today, Saturday 5/12. It was first time we were there and it was WONDERFUL!!! The staff were friendly and most accommodating. The food wasBEYOND DELICIOUS!!!! We will definitely be back.
A revamped store, very old but nice.when we were there service was ok, inside looks a little rustic, food ...ok, I had a chicken salad sandwich. ..a lot of lettuce, tomato very easy on the chicken.
Delicious food, always fresh and locally sourced. We usually go for breakfast; the quiche and scone specials never disappoint!
The food was so delicious! Good coffee and friendly staff. Definitely made the cold snowy day a bit brighter!
This is such a cute and quaint little spot. It can get a little paced, especially on weekends so I would recommend reservations. The food is very good!
Lovely atmosphere, great service. Had the huevos rancheros but cant say the food is all that special. Overall good grub ahead of our hike.
Very cute and fun place to dine in. I took theor daily special which I was eggs benedict which wasnt that good actually but I still think its a five stars place.
Order the lemon ricotta pancakes with real maple syrup, and Candian bacon!
Food is great. Service is quick. Good variety. Lots of choices for people with diet issues. Comfortable venue.
The lemon ricotta pancakes were deliciously light and fluffy, the place cozy. Will definitely recommend it to others.
Great place for breakfast and lunch. The food is very good and the folks are perpetually upbeat and friendly.
An extremely slow service. Id been dreaming of a great lunch, but couldnt get it since nobody came to take my order for 10 mins and I had a train to show up to.
Food and service is excellent! Remarkably clean and the host was exceptionally friendly.
Love love love !!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely worth the distance !!! Also sall the food was very fresh !!!
Food is good, but 15.44 for a small sandwich, bit too much! Across the street sandwiches are even better for the half of the price!
Nice atmosphere. Tasty food. Friendly staff. Big portions. Would recommend!
Fantastic Coffee, eggs just right, and side potatoes that are buttery and creamy on the inside and slightly crunchy on the outside perfectly seasoned. Great price point!
Great brunch,the pancakes with lemon ricotta is a must try!
One day Im gonna be back with my mom here because they have a great brunch
Today was our fourth time visiting and nothing disappointed us...strongly recommend a stop at this establishment for drinks and food. The service, atmosphere and the food never miss.
The staff is great and so is the food definitely recommend :)

Nice atmosphere. Cute little spot for brunch. Popular restaurant but average food (at best.)

I liked the food but we went after a hike around 4pm and the service was extremely slow.
All foods were really good. Worth waiting in queue.
They serve big portions and for affordable rates. nice staff members. Keep up the good work.
Super fresh food and great service.
Nice place to brunch after a hike at breakneck ridge . Great staff , drinks are cheap and good!
Love coming here on the weekends for breakfast. We enjoy the breakfast burritos and many of their specials with a latte.
Such good food. Weve been here for breakfast and also lunch. Almost everything is locally sourced from the Hudson Valley.

2022-03-19This was a lovely little place to go. The service was a little slow, because they are (according to a sign on their door) a little understaffed at the moment. However, the food that arrived was delicious and the staff were very friendly. I’d recommend this place, and in particular the BLT sandwich. The prices here are also very reasonable.

2022-01-16I went on a cold day, where the wait was at least 1-2hours long.. The person at the front was amazingly rude, as many people who tried getting a reservation were trying to figure out what to do and where to stand in line.. it seemed like they were short staffed at the time. However, our hostess was kind and friendlier, and the food was decent. Looks like this is the best brunch option around there.. Please do try the butter spice apple cider rum - it was warm and yummy.

2022-01-07The food was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. I would quite honestly drive the hour Cold Spring is away from my home just to eat here again. I ordered the Fig and Apple Grilled Cheese, and my friend ordered the Chicken Pesto Sandwich, and we split them. The sandwiches were just divine, and the bread they were made on really made them taste even better. If I could give this place a 6 out of 5, I would. Service was good as well. This is hands down the best choice for places to eat in Cold Spring!

2022-02-08Love this place. This is a must go to for brunch. It has amazing food and it is locally sourced. Dont we all love farm to table restaurants? I know I sure do.

2021-07-17Good food and decent service. We went there on a Saturday and the weather was so nice so we had to wait for 10 mins to be seated. They were understaffed so were pretty efficient (read rather professional or cold, but did the best they could). But the food was of a good quality and the portion was quite generous. We had salmon BLT and chicken sandwich. Drinks were ok and price overall was almost like in the city, so still a bit expensive.

2022-06-19We were visiting the area and we decided to have lunch here with my family. We were added to the wait list which the host told us it would 15 min. Well, while waiting we saw a ton of people entering and those 15 min were 20, and then 30 and then 40min. The host wasnt friendly and finally got a table after pressure her , our disappointment was the food. There is nothing absolutely good about this place. They are just dry sandwiches and salads. The menu seemed quite interesting when you read the menu but its just an average place for American food. I absolutely dont recommend this place for families, they just dont have empathy. I would never say to a family that is a 15 min of wait list when you have small starving children. Avoid.

2022-06-26It took a girl from Ohio to tell me about this place. We came for breakfast and i cant get that damn avocado toast off my mind. We all enjoyed our dishes. My friends have been coming here for years, so I guess now I have to bring my family here. Beautiful and comfy place in a great quiet town. Clean bathrooms and friendly people. I would come back.

2021-10-18American restaurant in the heart of Cold Spring that serves fare from locally raised ingredients. They serve all day breakfast, lunch menu and a bakery. Definitely try the biscuit and gravy. The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor dining.

2021-12-24The food was okay, but the staffs were so rude. They didn’t answer us back several times. Also we’re still working on the dessert, but she wanted us to check the bill quick.

2021-10-24Country diner fare with fast and friendly service. The staff here is highly competent, caring, hard working and efficient. To me, that makes up for the food being very average.
