Delightful small bar with creative cocktails, a great wine list, friendly service, and some tasty appetizer offerings. A great place to take a break from shopping (and enjoy the outdoor seating when weather permits). read more

Stopped in the other night. It's been quite some time, but it's just as good! Jar'd has great small dishes to accompany your drink. I really enjoyed the spicy margarita. The perfect level of spice! Prices are solid for the area. Tip: sit out back, it's beautiful! read more

This summer I've been loving Jar'd in New Paltz! Quaint and cozy vibes and the perfect little escape for snacks and sips with a friend or by myself while reading on the deck. They recently launched their tapas menu again and the quick and tasty apps are delish and the perfect pairing to every cocktail! Highly recommend a dirty martini and asking the bubbly jardtenders what they prefer to sip on! 10/10 read more

Fun little place for great craft cocktails and wines by the glass. A limited snack menu, so don't go hungry.

This is a cute little place off of Main Street in downtown New Paltz... located at the Water street Market right before the bridge. There is a parking lot tucked away up on the hill in the back. This place is within those shoppes in The Water street Market. This place is a SUPER small space. Has one small room with a bar and 3 or 4 tables on the side .. and then there is a small patio with a few couches. It was a cold heavy rainy evening so we had no choice then to stay inside. Bar is cute with cool glasses. I remember The playlist was hipster-ish - playing "wolf like me "TV on the radio and "where is my mind" by the pixies.... The menu is small. I tried the Depaula spanish wine and I liked it a lot. I also tried the "Double whammy dark and stormy" cocktail- it was strong and it suited the evening but it wasn't my favorite. Appetizers/tapas... We tried the local cheese plate ( so yummy) and the charcuterie plate had delicious green fig and manchego ( Spanish cheese) - so good. These were good snacks. The owner was very friendly- she was a one woman show- she bartended and served the tapas. There was only about 3 other people there besides us... so I had no issues with service or waiting. I would definitely come back for some wine and cheese- yes please! :) read more

These homemade boozy pops were refreshing in the July 4th heat! I especially liked the tequila watermelon strawberry and lime pop from this quaint little wine bar. We also opted for the boquerones (white anchovies) served with kettle cooked chips... the combo was amazing and delicious! Also, let's not forget those Hudson Valley views! read more

OBSESSED. My husband surprised me by stopping in here after a long weekend spent at Mohonk Mountain House down the road. What a GEM. This place is small small small but it packs some serious charm. Their waitstaff is attentive, friendly, and real. It's not everyday you meet a waiter that's just being themselves (holds true for a lot of the area). We got a seat in the back closed in porch with a blanket and a seat cushion. What a charming little space for a cozy bottle of wine and charcuterie board (which we also ordered!). It was a pleasant price point and just enough to satisfy that munchy need when cuddling close with a bottle. The wine we happened to select to order a bottle of I was definitely not a fan of. However, that was my miss. I think they could use a line or two to describe the wines on the wine list. They do tell you the types and regions but something like "light with a touch of sweet" would of indicated it would of been something I'd normally steer away from. All in all the place is gem. It's very small but its so gosh darn cute! Go check it out! read more

Popped in on a pretty evening around sunset during my mini escape to the Hudson Valley. Prices are comparable to where I live in Central NJ, but definitely worth it. Primarily a spot for drinks--with a small but cool and warm interior, featuring light wood, teal damask wallpaper, and mismatched Edison bulbs, it strikes me as just the right balance of cozy and cool. I enjoyed my drink (an excellent Negroni made with super refreshing local gin) on the back porch and watched the sun go down behind the ridge. The spot, the view, the drink -- it was all gorgeous. Ps. There doesn't seem to be a kitchen, so the dishes on the tapas menu are apparently all pre-made / toaster-heated. I had the duck rillettes, which made for a tasty snack. But if you're really hungry, plan to get dinner before or after heading here for a nice drink. read more

Jar'd Wine Pub - View from the back porch seating area - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - New Paltz, New York

Best espresso martini I've tried in a while. Quaint, intimate and laid back place. I believe it was the owner who took care of us and she just went above and beyond. And don't let the kettle chips and tzatziki go untried. We probably could have sat there all day, endlessly ordering and munching. read more

Such a cute little wine bar! The bartender Oliva was the best, so sweet and friendly and made sure everyone was happy. Cooly decorated bar, with a light menu inspired by Spanish tapas. Funky different shaped light bulbs hang from the ceiling above the bar. The place is definitely cozy and quite tiny. Outdoor seating is comfortable which is located in the back of the bar. Plenty of wine, craft beer and ciders to choose from. I could see this place located in Brooklyn. A quite & intimate place to stop in for some drinks. read more

Walked in to get out of the rain today to find the coolest little place with some great drinks, wine and an amazing cheese plate! Will definitely be back for a longer stay! read more

Small and quaint. Loved the charcuterie rue and cheese boards. Nice selection and portions on both.

They have a covered back porch where you can unleash your dog. And, they have scramble. Throw in good music and crowd and you have yourselves an almost winner. Recommend the cheese plate and wine/beer. Try the rest at your peril. We intend to come back (with the dog, of course) read more

A tiny little wine bar in a tiny little strip of shops in New Paltz. Room for maybe ten or 15 people between the bar itself and the small patio. Pricey, but chill. The wine list is swell, the beer list small but strong (they had Hitachino White on tap the night I came), and the sangria looked delicious. The bar is wallpapered in paisley and the patio has a view of Skytop. read more

Jar'd Wine Pub - the patio is lovely, and winterized so it'll be open in the cold weather. - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - New Paltz, New York

Great new wine bar in the Water Street Market in New Paltz. The place is very tiny, there is a small bar with about 8 seats, maybe 4 high top tables that seat 2 and a cute outdoor area with a few benches. Nice selection of wine by the glass and a few beers on tap as well as bottles. They also had a tasty sangria when I visited. The tapas-style menu dishes with things like marcona almonds, marinated olives, cheeses, pate, hummus and anchovies and sardines. We enjoyed a sangria ($7), a milk stout ($6), a glass of Pinot Nero ( $7 Pinot Noir from Italy) and a Valderon blue cheese plate with fig cake ($9). Not a place to come for a full meal, or with a large group - but a great place for a drink and a nosh with friendly service and reasonable prices. They also have free wifi! read more

Good drinks and positive vibes. I've had the food and drinks here on a few occasions. The first time I came here the company that I worked for at the time had a work party here when things were starting to slow down during the seasonal time. I really enjoyed that night with my coworkers and the environment of the bar. We got catering and everyone had a blast! I had a lot of drinks but still had a good time all on the dime of the boss of course. It's certainly a small gem to be found in the water street market area. They have a cool kind of back area which is nice to relax in. It' has some nice couches and stuff. It's a little small but cozy at the same time. The good kind of warm and cozy. read more

Heaven on earth! They serve sangria and tapas and encourage my dogs to roam freely on the back porch. read more

Jar'd is the best dang bar in New Paltz. Super cozy, friendly, and just the right amount of fun. Lots of little tapas to choose from and the cocktails are fantastic. Awesome beer selection as well. Perfect place to start your exploration of the Water Street Market. Doesn't get any better! read more

I love that you can sit outside or on the back patio. You just find a spot and people watch. One of my favorite places to grab a beer, outside, on a nice day. I do wish they had a larger selection of beer. Usually, there are only two or three. read more

I was visiting New Paltz for the first time over the weekend just to get away from NYC and experience a more laid back environment. We did a search for crafted cocktails and this place came up. It's small but a very inviting place. The bartenders are awesome! Friendly and great at making quality drinks. We came back two nights in a row, that's how great this place is. read more

Great selection of wine and small plate food. The bar tender was super friendly and the atmosphere was cozy. It's also a nice option in NP if you want to avoid the college scene. read more

The hummus, olives dolmas and cheese platter goes perfectly with the selection of Spanish wines. The ambiance is intimate, like having a glass of wine with your neighbors on a summers night. We will totally be back. It's one of the best places in New Paltz for a relaxing drink in a civilized atmosphere. read more

Interesting wine selection! Ita a small place with a very charming feel. Staff is nice and informative

Really cute place. Small, intimate, and with awesome bartender. Cheese platter is supergood!

Great non chain stop for tapas and a well made drink. Owner onsite and ensures your service is top notch. Sit out back, plays some games, smell the herbs, and enjoy! read more

Awesome staff and ownership! My wife happened to leave her phone here and they took care of it. They took time out of their holiday weekend to mail it to us in NYC right away. Wonderful people and a wonderful wine bar, we can't wait to come back. read more

Jar'd is a true hidden gem in the Hudson Valley. With its simplistic elegance it is the embodiment of one of my most revered philosophies, "less is more." The draught beer selection changes often due to the location's small size, and as a result I always look forward to being pleasantly surprised by the interesting and unique offerings on any forthcoming visit. Additionally with its quaint ambiance, outdoor space, and friendly staff it has quickly risen the ranks to one of my all time favorite food & beverage destinations. read more

I'm here right now. It's so cool. Insta friends with everyone. Casey is the best bartender that ever lived. She's literally painting henna shit on the door right now just because it's nice. It's awesome, and I don't know what else to say but it's telling me my review is too short. Not really sure what to do now except post it. read more

This is the cutest coziest bar in New Paltz. The wine selection is really nice, and the staff are super helpful in pointing you in the right direction if you have no clue what to get. The small plates they offer are perfect for sharing, and always really yummy. It also has a beautifully decorated porch with a view of the ridge that's amazing in the summer if you're lucky enough to grab seats! read more

My only problem with this place is that I have gone only once! I love it. Small and chic, with a great wine list and simple tasty tapas. The location is wonderful the ambiance feels a bit like being in a cool friends patio or bar. This place is great, I cannot wait to go back. read more

Teeny tiny little wine bar located in the Water Street Market. And when I say "teeny tiny" I ain't kidding. But man!.....she sure has managed to utilize the small space and it is just the most adorable little spot to have a great glass of wine before or after dinner (or both) somewhere else in town. If you're really not too hungry but want just a little nibble of something, they offer a small tapas menu as well. They also have a nice beer selection on hand. The tagline on their website - "Jar'd is an experience. It's an intimate, funky and energetic space created for the local community and beyond. Wine, beer, small snacks and most definitely a fun time." - says it all. They have a small little outdoor porch area as well for optional seating in the warmer weather months. They offer a happy hour during the week from 4-6pm and Sundays they offer $5 mimosas. Mondays is trivia night. Weekend nights bring live music and DJ dance parties that spill out into the Water Street Market walkway. For a small space it sure does pack a big punch! read more

This place is perfect to have a glass of wine and enjoy the company of a friend, significant other, or even meet new people. We were greeted with a smile from behind the bar, and we learned that our bartender would be Courtney. She was personable and very attentive. She seemed to know all who entered the bar, and anyone new was quickly embraced as we all felt at home. Courtney and Jar'd left us with such a warm impression and we cannot wait to visit again. read more

It was Tuesday and we had just gotten back from up in the mountains. We needed a place to go and have a few drinks and some food before the long trip home. A lot of the places that we wanted to go two did not allow pets and we had ourselves a dog. This place is so animal friendly ! We were seated in an outdoor patio area that was closed off. A server came out and she greeted us. She's awesome. We ordered the locally brewed kombucha and some craft beer period everything was great. We'll also ordered the Mediterranean sampler. That was also delicious and perfect for just the right amount of meal before heading out. Would definitely come back to this place read more

The space is S M A L L but there's a really friendly and intimate vibe. The cocktails we had were delicious and so was the stuffed pretzel plate we ordered. Upon walking in, you'll notice they serve tapas but that there isn't a kitchen (or a bathroom) - all the food is prepared behind the bar. But don't let that stop you from stopping by and getting a great cocktail or a glass of wine. If you can score a spot in the back (outside), you'll have one gorgeous view on the mountains. read more

Worst service on a coast to coast drive, with a snarling server who took forty minutes to spread cheese on crostini (forgetting beets, but by that time we just wanted to escape). Two suggestions: don't sit outside--we were forgotten--and don't consider this a "food" venue. Our drinks were good and promptly served. read more

Loved this place! First, since it's a wine bar, I need to call out that the wine selections were very well thought out with a good number of organic and biodynamic options. Second, while the menu is somewhat limited, everything is fresh, local and delicious which makes it a great place for grabbing a bite as well. The space is intimate and cute, especially in the summer when you can take advantage of the outdoor area. The patrons are very friendly and chill and the music is awesome, with a lot of 90s flavor, which I am personally a big fan of! read more
