It's a very cute restaurant located right next to the theater in downtown. The menu is overall pretty simple, but I think they do classic American food pretty well. I really enjoyed the shrimp patty burger I got last time, which was a lot heftier than I expected! The meal probably won't be revolutionary, but a very solid spot for the area and very convenient if you're watching a movie before/after. Food came out relatively quick! We got lucky both times without a reservation, but it can get pretty busy.

The chicken/potato dumpling is stellar. The perfect combination of carrots and vegetables and truly a well thought out, elevated dish. *Flank steak dish with poutine was alright. Good for what it was. *Food took 40 minutes to come out, which is a long time when you didn't order appetizers. Waitress made eye contact and realized we weren't served, but didn't approach us to check-in intentionally because she could tell there was a delay. The delay would make sense if it weren't for the fact that we got in as soon as the restaurant opened, on a weekday. Anyway, the chicken potato dumpling dish is the saver of this review. Would come back for it.

Having some of my favorite beer options from the local area / North East (shout out to Mast Landing's Gunners Daughter). Aside from the beer, the tacos here were incredible. They are not lying about the best tacos in town. Although the seating area is on the smaller side, it never felt cramped - it was the perfect spot to spend a few hours this rainy day. As a bonus, the bar tenders were super knowledgeable on the local beer scene. I really enjoyed hearing some of their stories on how certain breweries ended up on tap at Draught Industries. Hoping to be back again this summer/fall.

Beacon is a destination town for beer lovers. Between Industrial Arts (which brews some of my…read moreall-time favorite beers), Hudson Valley Brewery, Two Way, and a handful of others, you could spend a whole weekend here just brewery hopping. Draught Industries fits right into that scene. It's a spot run by people who clearly care about craft beer, with a long, rotating tap list and a laid-back, slightly quirky vibe. But what surprised me most was the food. I started with the pulled pork sandwich with ghost pepper aioli. The pork was tender and smoky, and the aioli brought real heat without drowning out the meat. If you like spice, get it. The real reason I'll be back, though, is the wild boar tacos. I love wild boar, and you almost never see it on a menu, so I ordered it the second I saw it. They come topped with guacamole, pineapple pico de gallo, and habanero peppers. The richness of the boar, the creamy guac, and the sweet pineapple against the habanero heat all worked together perfectly. Easily some of the best tacos I've had in the Hudson Valley. Great beer, bold food, and a menu willing to take chances. If you're doing a Beacon brewery crawl, make Draught Industries a stop. And come hungry.

I've eaten here a number of times, and it's a solid 3 star. On the most recent visit the service…read morewas unusually slow, and the food was underwhelming. There is also the perennial complaint of cost - but a dinner for three that included two drinks, three appetizers (one of which was bread which at this price point should be complementary, and anther a tomato salad), and two entrees should not be $180. The steamed dumplings were reasonably tasty, but the wrapper was too thick and I question the addition of corn. The duck breast was generally under-seasoned and bland, and the skin had not been fully rendered out. The biggest disappointment was the tuna nori - the strongest flavor was an off putting fish taste. The accompanying rice (jasmine and not short grain?) and bok choy both tasted like they had been cooked in nothing but butter. The view is nice, but I don't plan on dining here often.

Between the delicious food, outstanding service, and breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge, it's always a great experience. The staff is consistently friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. The servers know the menu well and are happy to make recommendations, making every visit feel relaxed and enjoyable. One of our favorite times to visit is for their weekend brunch buffet, which offers a great variety of options. During the week, their Happy Hour (4-7 PM) is another favorite, especially the $1 oysters. It gets busy, so I definitely recommend arriving early. Just keep in mind that Happy Hour is available only in the bar and lounge area. The restaurant is clean, has a spacious parking lot shared with the neighboring restaurant, and offers a beautiful outdoor patio overlooking the river during the warmer months. The patio closes for the winter, but it's one of the best places to dine when the weather is nice. They also have a kids' menu, although my 6-year-old usually orders from the regular menu because she has a very adventurous palate. If you're looking for great seafood, excellent service, gorgeous waterfront views, and one of the best dining experiences in Newburgh, Blu Pointe is an easy recommendation. It's one of our favorite restaurants, and we always look forward to coming back.

We went for a late lunch and were pleasantly surprised by how attentive the service was. The setting alone is quiet, scenic, and relaxing, adding to the experience feeling special. We're particular about cocktails, and the specialty drinks leaned a bit sweet and light for our taste, but switching to a Grey Goose martini solved that quickly. The standout of the meal was the special appetizer, the Lobster Escargot. Between the bread service and the rich, bisque-like sauce layered over the classic preparation, I could have happily ended the meal right there. We left no trace behind. I followed with the crab cake and wedge salad. The crab cake was generously sized, very fresh, and exactly what I hoped for. My husband ordered the branzino, which was absolute perfection, beautifully cooked and full of flavor. The sides, however, were less memorable; the smashed potatoes and green beans felt under-seasoned and a bit boring compared to the rest of the meal. Overall, it was a lovely anniversary lunch with memorable dishes and a beautiful view.

The portions are quite small, and while everything looked nice, I felt the flavors were underwhelming. The music is extremely loud, which made it difficult to have a conversation, and the service wasn't very attentive during either visit. On my last visit, I asked for salsa with my tacos, and no one mentioned there would be an extra charge. I ended up being charged for three very small portions, which was disappointing since I would have appreciated knowing beforehand. The restaurant also didn't seem as clean as I expected, especially the bathrooms, which could definitely use more attention. Overall, I really wanted to like this place because it has a fun atmosphere and a great location, but after two visits, it just wasn't worth the price for me. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be coming back.
