    Stuffed french toast

    It was fine. Took a while to get our food and the service was average. I wasn't blown away by the food or the price either a little too greasy for my liking. Atmosphere was pretty cool though big fan of all the art inside. Gift shop is worth checking out. Also prepare for auto gratuity and a random fee. Probably wouldn't come back

    The killer atmosphere of B-side
    Adam C.

    To the people of New Paltz, you shouldn't need to read this review. Because it's a given that this place is "the spot". The all day breakfast, the killer menu, it's deserved the cult-like following that it's garnered throughout the years. The entire atmosphere tells you that this place knows what to do, and that they're damn good at it. This place will always hold a special place in my heart, among all of the other residents of New Paltz. Fantastic job B-Side.

    Great times at B-sides! great food and crew

    Chef Lou and staff were able to quickly accommodate my friend's keto diet needs. Great food and there's so many hidden goodies to see.

    We stumbled upon this hip-looking local eatery after finishing a car repair project. Since we were doing "guy stuff" we passed on having healthy food and opted for the cardiac specials. I has two chili dogs with kraut and a side of fries. My friend has their take on a Philly cheese steak. The dogs were pretty good ... tasty but not as good as good my baseline dog, Nathan's. My friends cheese steak was rated really good and so huge that he took half home with him. The fries came pre salted. In my opinion, they had way too much NACL for my taste. I didn't finish mine - that almost never happens. My friend agreed but ate his. I liked this cool, hip little spot. While we ate, the placed filled up with lots of locals ... young and old alike. A friend who is a local was going to try to join us for lunch but was delayed. When he heard this was our location, he replied with a negative opinion... that was a surprise since I think I'll eat here again when I'm in town.

    Meat Benedict

    This place is low key. We loved the homeyness. If you looking for a fancy breakfast/lunch venue...this is not the place. The staff was so friendly. We arrived prior to opening and had a bit of a wait but it was so worth it!! We ordered the hash and eggs, all meat Benedict and the the meat jagger. ALL food was fabulous. The eggs on the Benedict were on point. The scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly for our taste. The home fried potatoes were cooked great (some saltier pieces than others) and seasoned as we like!!! Coffee was hot and refilled as we needed. This restaurant was packed today as the "competition" across the street was closed. The staff was able to keep on top of the crowd. We definitely will come again to try some of the other lunch offerings the next time we are in town.

    b-side has been a staple for me and my friends since high school, and it only gets better. super fun atmosphere, always good service, and creative, delicious dishes. i most recently got the breakfast grilled cheese, which was phenomenal, and the burgers are always a hit.

    A themed table
    Evan W.

    I like unique places and they have a cool vibe. The food is interesting and on par with a diner. The only turn off was that the table and menus were sticky and the place didn't have a very clean or sanitary feel. The place felt like a college hangover spot which is awesome if that's what you're looking for.

    Breakfast menu

    Great food & service! The restaurant was decorated with records, cassettes & cd's-super cute! There is a small store attached to the restaurant that sells instruments, amps, etc...

    Triple Decker Turkey Avocado Club Sandwich
    Esther L.

    Cool spot to get breakfast/lunch when in New Paltz! One of the best club sandwiches I've ever had aside a mountain of fries. Tip: upgrade your fries to include vegan cheese sauce on the side.

    Our faves are the Chicken walnut salad, Philly cheese steak.  Diabolic, any burger, and the French toast with berries and whipped cream.

    Place has a funky retro vinyl vibe, breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Service is fast. Food is original and varied. Prices are reasonable. Eat in or take out. A regular "go to" for us! Donna & Bill

    That's my Mick Jagger which I can't finish! So much food!

    Kids were hungry as we cruised up 87... I love diners, figured let's give it a try. Unfortunately,…read morethis place is dirty, food is average and is way overpriced. $3.75 for soda and most menu items are $20-$35. We spent over $70 ordering modestly for our family of 4, including two young kids... no appetizer, no dessert. An example of how ridiculous the pricing is: a hamburger is roughly $10. If you want to make it "deluxe" that'll be $8 extra for fries, a small thing with coleslaw and lettuce/tomato. Paying by credit card? They'll pass the transaction fee on to you. I think a place like this knows you won't get up and leave once you look at the menu and see the prices, which is why they get away with this kind of behavior. Judging by the scant few customers we saw, I suspect other people felt the same way... ripped off and not going back.

The words "mozzarella grilled cheese" plus "tomatoes" might not get you excited but, I'm a fan of that combo. I also ordered a Vanilla Egg Cream. I mean- it's a diner classic for good reason. My grilled cheese.+van. egg cream turned out to be the perfect pairing. A grilled cheese might be basic, have burnt bread slices and gets soggy quick, but Plaza's version oozed like nobody's business. The egg cream was another major hit. The milk+seltzer +vanilla syrup all mingled flawlessly. What's more, all the ingredients were perfectly chilled. I totally loved my lunch combo and it was quite the surprise considering the low rating here. The only issues I had were the $2 charge for tomato slices in my grilled cheese and the $6.50 for the sandwich itself when I can get it elsewhere for 4 bucks.

On the weekends it turns on a late-night party scene filled with college students. It is lined up right in Main Street with other smaller restaurants and bars. This was one of my favorite cheap eateries in the town while I was in college. I have been here twice since for happy hour specials. I ordered the chicken wings and the shrimp tacos. The drinks were around $5 which is a steal compared to New York City prices. In the past they used to offer a large fishbowl drink for your birthday. It was huge and took several people to drink it. Currently it is the size of a large cup as you can see in the picture. It does the job but it is much smaller than what it was in 2010. The staff here is very friendly and helpful.
