Mocha & hazelnut chip. Boyfriend got labne quince & I believe coconut passionfruit
Katy L.

Was in the area for apple picking & wanted to try a local ice cream spot. Upon searching a bit, Fortunes seemed to come highly recommended so off we went. I'm quite pleased that the hours go until 10 pm because the people need post dinner ice cream!! Unfortunately despite reviews saying the ice cream is generally pricey, the prices are not readily available. I was so excited to eat the ice cream that I also forgot to take a picture of the menu board with the price From what I remember a small cup was around $5, medium cup is $7 ish and large cup is either $8-9. I asked how many scoops each cup can get and I think you can get two scoops per cup (maybe more for the large? I'm blanking). There are of course come options as well as toppings. Their flavors change pretty regularly it seems and there was a slim fridge on the side of the store with pints of flavors that were not featured in the display case (I didn't look too closely). There were some interesting flavors like labneh quince and kiwiberry but I'm basic and I got a medium cup of mocha and hazelnut chip. The staff was friendly & let me sample my target flavors before I bought. I took a lick of the labneh quince flavor he got & it's definitely an interesting tangy yogurt y flavor & both bf & my friend enjoyed the passionfruit flavor they got. The mocha ice cream is strong & hits you with a punch of coffee flavor. The hazelnut chip is deliciously sweet and flavorful & reminded me of like a Nutella-y praline flavor with the chips providing a fun crunch. The hazelnut chip flavor was my favorite! I love pistachio gelato (legit one from Italy) so I was curious & asked if they offered pistachio ice cream. They offer both a pistachio as well as a rosewater saffron pistachio flavor at other times. Seeing how good the hazelnut chip & mocha flavors were, I have high hopes their pistachio would be good too. The medium cup was a pretty fair amount of ice cream so while it's on the pricy side, I think it's a great ice cream option in the area. There's some cozy interior seating with a handful of tables. I rec it for ice cream and a wonderful post dinner dessert spot. Looking forward to what other creative flavors they have!

The first thing everyone noticed is the cute little building that housesfortunes ice cream. It is located right on the main road. Parking can be tough, but I usually find a spot down one of the side streets. Nice selection of ice creams with seasonal flavors. I believe most of the ingredients are local. The ice cream is delicious. On a very hot day, they could do a slightly better job of keeping it firmer. The service is pretty good. Looks like it's run by a bunch of students, which is fine, but I have seen them get overwhelmed when it's busy. And it's almost always busy. Fantastic spot to grab a cone or a cup or some to-go ice cream after dinner or when passing through the area. I would recommend it.

rocky road

10/10 experience. Had the rocky road on top of a brownie and it was killer. The space is adorable, the staff is ready to answer questions and serve up some samples, and the ice cream is great. All fresh ingredients, you can really taste the quality.

Dark chocolate / chocolate
Shawn H.

Really amazing. Both the chocolate and dark chocolate are among the best I can remember having anywhere. My wife also really loved the peanut butter swirl and the coffee chip. We loved this so much we came three straight nights, and I think it's well worth the visit even if we weren't staying in Tivoli.

Concord Grape  with rainbow sprinkles

Concord Grape ice cream was just as refreshing as a wine cooler Local joint with unique flavors like apple cider donut and sour cherry.

Labne sour Cherry, rosewater saffron pistachio, and early gray lavender shortbread on a waffle cone
Eryn M.

Amazing specialty ice cream shop! Have driven 40+ minutes just to get this ice cream. They are always changing flavors so get what you like while you can. The service is very nice and has lots of seating. Usually there is a line but it moves very quickly and they always let you taste some flavors before you have to choose. We had the peanut butter and jelly Sundae with mint chip and halva honeycomb, rosewater saffron pistachio, earl gray lavender shortbread and labne sour Cherry. All were so good! We'll definitely be back soon!

best ice cream I've ever had. all of the flavors are on point. Every time I'm in the area I always make a stop here. Some of my favorite flavors are Halva honeycomb, early grey lavender shortbread, and golden milk. Keep in mind their flavors rotate every week so check their instagram @fortunesicecream for their current flavors. The staff is always super friendly and let you sample the flavors. The ambiance is also really nice with some indoor and outdoor seating options.

They have your standard flavors with a little twist to let you know they're using high quality ingredients (Madagascar Vanilla, Fruition Chocolate), and a few fun ones that might catch your eye (key lime crunch, thai tea cookies and cream). We were disappointed that Miss Lucy's was out of their banana pudding, but they had banana pudding ice cream here, and it truly hit the spot for my daughter. The people are nice, the price is reasonable, there are comfortable tables in the alley and a nice ivy-covered wall to sit next to.

On our way back from meeting our new grandson for the first time in Rhinebeck ((born early this…read moremorning, 10-4-25, and everyone doing splendidly) , we stopped at one of our favorite local places for authentic tasting German food--Jaeger Haus (5084 NY-9G) in Tivoli, NY.  My one sentence review for card-carrying members of team Cliff Notes: "German beer on tap, a good selection of German wines, and authentic tasting German cuisine at really reasonable prices served up by friendly staff in an environment which just exudes Gemütlichkeit."  Everyone else is invited to continue reading, Bitte. There used to be numerous German restaurants in NYC and throughout upstate NY, but over the years those numbers have dwindled substantially to a handful.  A relatively new addition to the local Hudson Valley dining scene Jaeger Haus was started in 2018 (in a 70 year old restaurant building) and serves up seriously tasty and authentic tasting German beer, wine, and food.  We've dined there a few times over the last two years of visiting this year--the mood is relaxed, the beer is delicious, and food remind us of our travels to Germany and Austria.  The menu is tight and by that I mean it's focused on what they do well--which is traditional German food. While I wish they might add a few classic German appetizers to their menu for variety, their range of entrees provides ample choice and I am slowly making my way through those selections. Lola, one of our servers for the evening, quickly took our drink orders.  I ordered a mug of Hofbrau Original Lager (on tap) and after being given a tasting, my wife ordered a pint of Hofbrau Weissbier (which is similar to the sort of wheat beer she occasionally enjoys).  So refreshing.  A basket of house-made thinly sliced Roggenbrot (rye bread) arrived soon after our drinks with softened butter, lightly sprinkled with sea salt. We passed on the appetizers, knowing that our entrees would be substantial.  My wife ordered the Wienershcnitzel which comes with braised red cabbage and house-made spaetzle lightly sauced with a cream gravy.  These are classic sides which one can find served in restaurants from Vienna or Munich to Heidelberg or Berlin.  I ordered exactly the same thing (having tried other dishes on our prior visits), except I ordered my Wienerschnitzel "a la Holstein" (with a fried local farm egg).  The egg, especially the large yolk, provides an added level of lusciousness to the crispy veal.   Our meals arrived in due course.  They were gorgeous to look at and ate even better than they looked.  The spaetzles were soft and fluffy, the red cabbage was rich and well spiced, and the veal . . . the veal was heavenly.  Crisp on the outside, fork tender on the inside, dipping into a bit of the egg yolk (in my case); goodness what a delightful taste sensation. Just delicious.  We both earned "clean plate" certificates tonight--suitable for framing--felt satiated, but not overly full (which is where we like to end a meal).  We nursed our beers a bit longer, sharing memories from this special day, paid our bill (the bill encouraged customers to tip in cash, which we did), thanked the staff, bid the co-owner "danke schön und Wiedersehen" and we were on our way.

The decor reminds you of a German Brauhaus. We had 2pm reservations and were seated promptly. Our…read morewaitress was friendly and attentive. Our drinks came out quickly As for our appetizers they came out promptly and were delicious. As for our main meals, the portions were perfect and the flavors were great. If you're look for authentic german cuisine the Jaeger Haus is the place to go!!! I am looking forward to our next visit.

I think really it came down to price and being able to compete with a similar product…read more We got take out one evening for the whole family. So we had lots of options. Barbacoa taco was really tasty. Good meat. Good accoutrements decent size for the price. If I could do it over I would get crispy shell. I felt the online menu posted on the website does not really show all the shell choices. Steak quesadilla was fairly priced which is why I got it. I liked the fillings even though I thought it was a little small. Should I be forced to come back id get the kids chicken tacos. The chicken was really tasty and loaded full. I didn't try but the enchilada people loved their enchiladas. Good use of vegetables inside. I liked the texture of the flan. It's a little tricky to get right so I can respect. Honestly I like my flan on the firmer side which it was. Margaritas are really strong. I get why they do half pitchers because full ones would definitely be finishers. Ingredients are fresh but honestly a little underwhelming. Overall the meal was decent enough but way overpriced. Possibly could be a case of it being 2025 though.

Eh. I had dinner here on Friday night and I don't know that I'd return. The restaurant is drop dead…read moregorgeous-- exposed beams, large windows, well set and appointed tables. I saw another review that you could have a wedding here and I agree. The service was nice-- we had two servers-- one sister training the other? I attempted to order a drink twice-- they had neither in stock-- before getting a Diet Coke. The big area of opportunity here is the food. My husband ordered the scallop risotto, which came... wet. It looked like rice swimming in water-- the flavor was similar, unfortunately. The cook on the scallops ranged widely in the dish. I ordered the salmon-- the cook on the salmon was nice but the quinoa was inedible, as were the veggies it was served with. Our meal was late and it felt like the food was held over from earlier preparations. We got the bread pudding, which was fine-- but the proportion of ice cream to pudding ratio was way off. The restaurant has so much potential but the food is the big problem to solve for, in my opinion.

We'll preface this review by saying that an experience this poor usually starts with ownership or…read moremanagement and trickles down to the staff. Who knows what the employees have to deal with on a day-to-day basis to result in service this bad. We were extremely disappointed with our experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff came across as rude and unwelcoming. We asked if we could sit at one of the tables closest to the waterfall, and the response was simply, "Well, it's dirty." Mind you, about 90% of the restaurant was empty. We expected something like, "No problem, give us a moment to clean it off." We're very easygoing and would have completely understood waiting a few minutes. Instead, that interaction set the tone for the rest of the meal. We even pitched in to help the bussing staff. When our waitress finally returned, she immediately said, "Oh, you don't have menus? You forgot them. I know I already gave them to you along with your place settings." Apparently it was a set-your-own-table experience. At that point, it almost felt like we were expected to bring our own service as well. The food quality was underwhelming--We've had better charcuterie on a plane--especially considering the prices. Several ingredients that were listed as part of the dishes were missing. When we asked the busser about it, she said she would check with the kitchen, but she never returned with an answer or any follow-up. Honestly, we would have expected the server to check back regardless, but other than taking our initial order, she never returned to our table, even when we tried to wave her over. So yes no one came back after our food was served to ask how everything was, whether we needed anything, or to address the missing ingredients. Once our order was delivered, we were completely forgotten. Good service means checking on your guests, addressing concerns, and making sure they're enjoying their meal. None of that happened during our visit. When we finally approached the manager, the first response was, "Well, did you eat any of the food?" Yes--we each had a couple of bites of the kale Caesar because we were starving, despite it being served without the advertised pork belly, which was the main ingredient. We had already tried to address our concerns in real time, but no one ever followed up. We're far from people who leave negative reviews. In fact, we think this is only the second bad restaurant review we've ever written. The experience was simply that disappointing. Overall, the combination of rude service, poor management, disappointing food quality, missing ingredients, and a complete lack of follow-through made for an incredibly frustrating dining experience. Unfortunately, we can't recommend this restaurant, and we won't be returning. The view is absolutely gorgeous, but you're better off grabbing a sandwich somewhere else and enjoying it from the nearby bridge.
