AMAZING! Great food, great service and great atmosphere! Really great spot with nice servers! Coffee was average but still good. French toast was basically a whole loaf of bread and egg sandwich was very savory and cheesy. Portion sizes are great and food is SO WORTH IT!!!!! read more

Nestled in Hudson's rapidly gentrified embrace, Le Perch is a beacon for two distinct species: Manhattan expats who fled to upstate during the pandemic and silver-haired property moguls whose aesthetic screams "trust fund chic." Think trust-fund twenty-somethings in cashmere hoodies mingling with sixty-something gentlemen accessorized by bespoke pugs. It's a scene, darling, and the vibe is as curated as an overpriced gallery wall. Now, onto the food: I ordered the roast beef sandwich, which was... fine. Perfectly adequate, if uninspired. The Diet Coke? A carbonation failure so grave it may have come from a generic store-brand nightmare. But the fries--oh, the fries! Crisp, golden, and salty enough to make your taste buds dance. They're the kind of fries you justify paying $10 for because, let's face it, you're already here. We also ordered a baguette for the table, served with pumpkin spread and butter. Points for seasonal charm, but--brace yourself--it wasn't warm. If you're paying for artisanal carbs, they should at least arrive with a cozy glow, right? Service? Polite but unremarkable, with a hostess whose energy hovered somewhere between "meh" and "mercenary." They'll get you seated, but don't expect to be charmed or dazzled along the way. Overall, Le Perch caters perfectly to its niche: those who enjoy shelling out for a brunch experience that whispers "clean, curated, and vaguely upscale" but rarely shouts "bold flavor" or "culinary adventure." It's food you describe as "lovely" because you've just spent a small fortune on it, not because it actually wowed you. Would I return? Eh, probably not. But for the gray-haired ladies browsing Hudson's art shops, this is their jam. Overpriced, subtle, and perfectly tailored to their taste for restraint over risk. Le Perch will thrive--for them, not me. read more

Visiting for a weekend catskills trip and stumbled upon this place. Extremely cute little quaint setting with many seating locations. (Outdoor curb side, interior bar, interior dining room, outdoor garden area in the back) I just had a cappuccino ($5) and their avocado toast with eggs.. ($24) The food was exceptionally well seasoned and thoroughly enjoyed the staff. I was surprised by the waitress with a to go bag of two croissants which was so thoughtful. Chocolate and a ham and cheese and both were amazing. flakey and buttery. Come to this place for sure and try the menu. I will be back for sure to try more items. The waitress that treated me to these croissants, you are a sweetheart! Thank you very much again. read more

Wow, such a fantastic little gem of a place in Hudson. Ordered the duck hash, pork sandwich, baguette with jam and butter and a cappuccino. The food was absolutely delicious and unfortunately I didn't get any before photos... everything was devoured quickly. The interior is stunning, loved all the art pieces on the walls. The quaint and cozy outdoor seating options in front of the restaurant and the back are a plus too! read more

This was a pit stop we made when we were driving up to the Adirondack Mountains. Line was long but went quickly, and everyone was so pleasant. The serving staff, and the host made everyone feel so welcome, ambiance is on point. Now let's talk about the food: Croissant was huge, crispy, flaky, and buttery. All that you can ask for in a croissant. The French toast came out, hot and piping. Let's say that French toast could of feed a table for four. The middle of the French toast was clustery and had the perfect consistency of a cake. I honestly believe this could of been used as a birthday cake. The croque madame had the perfect consistency and the perfect touch of saltiness. Chicken sandwiches were on point, if there is one item you get, it's the chicken sandwich. Fries were also hot and crunchy on the outside and the middle was soft and hot. Delicious!!!! Worth the two hour drive from NYC. read more

Loved their outdoor garden seating area. Went with my family of five after exploring the Thomas Cole house. The croissants are out of this world! The kids had a ham & cheese and a chocolate croissant. My husband had the croque madame and I had an egg and bacon croissant sandwich. We took croissants home, we just couldn't get enough! read more

Beautiful decor and aesthetic. Nice ambiance to catch up with a friend. I ordered the avocado toast with a side of poached eggs (not pictured) for my meal. The avocado ratio was excessive. While the avocado was tasty, it was way more than needed for a slice of toast and the toast was hard and difficult to cut through. My partner did however enjoy some of the avocado with his duck hash (not pictured). He very much enjoyed his entree. I would have liked to see more options. I found the menu to be limiting. read more

We are on a girls getaway and came here for brunch. The food was great especially the fries, kale pesto and omelette! The French toast was also amazing!

Overall great food, would come back. read more

Perfect breakfast/lunch/brunch option in Hudson! This was my first time visiting Le Perche after living in the area for over 15 years and I regret not visiting sooner! We were able to get a table easily and were sat right as we came in which is always a plus. The wait staff were all super helpful and friendly. It was gorgeous on the inside and it looks like they are building a really cool space for outdoor dining. We shared the fries and the salad as well as each getting our own croissants. My croissant was so buttery and flaky with a perfect amount of ham and cheese inside as well as the perfect crust of cheese on top. Get it warmed if you have the time. The salad had a dijony dressing which was so freakin' good! The greens were very fresh! The fries.. oh the fries. The frites were perfectly crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the side and came with this outstanding aioli. It was beyond my expectations. read more

Visit: April 2021. We were passing through and after walking down the street, decided to get takeout here. The dining room was packed. I got soft scrambled eggs with eel. I think the mister for eggs benefit with confit and potatoes? Both were tasty and a good portion. There was a mixup with our order and thankfully we checked before driving out of town. read more

A lovely French cafe/restaurant. Charming bakery counter and retail shop with bar in the front. Walk pass the dining room is a covered garden. Hubby and I along w/ our fur baby had lunch here one day during our trip to Hudson. We had a table at their pet friendly garden, it was a bit too warm on a hot day. Excellent service and food was pretty good. I love the Potato & Leek Soup, and also enjoyed the Le Perche Croque Madame. My hubby's Ham and Cheese Croissant was alright. The Rum Swizzle cocktail was refreshing. read more

Was excited about going here during our trip to the area because of how cute it looks from photos, but within 5 min of arriving, I quickly changed my mind and realized this only looks cute from first glance. As we were being seated, I saw an enormous amount of crumbs on the bench seating, and the hostess did not try to help clear or acknowledge at all. Then as a server was trying to clear the table next to us, she spilled coffee and the spoon on the bench seat right next to me, and I was checking if it got on my clothes. She just picked up the spoon, did not acknowledge my closeness to the spill, and left pools of coffee liquid just sitting on the bench. I thought someone would promptly come over with a rag or napkin or anything to soak up the liquid that was continue to absorb into the fabric bench, but nobody came. A lady was seated at this table and she looked down at the splotches that had now fully soaked in, and she just chose to sit while very carefully avoiding it. Not sure what's happening at this place in terms of training and service, but even the man who seemed like the manager did not seem to care. No one said goodbye to use when we passed the host area, even though they saw we were leaving. While it looks pretty, I would not come back to this place or recommend to others until they have figured out their service approach. Felt sloppy and we were happy to get out of there. read more

What a terrible disappointment and, I think, a health risk. I am so sorry to report this because I so wanted to like this place. But, I really have negative things to say. I will add that I write very few one and two star reviews. So, this bad review must really be important to me. Let me start by saying it looks wonderful when you come in. There is a delicious looking collection of pastries in a glass case. The ambiance and vibe is wonderful. And, we loved the back courtyard. It was a great place for lunch. That is why there are two stars instead of one. I ordered an omelette, which the waitress described as s French omelette with French herbs and filled with garnet cheese. There was a side of salad. Now comes the crappy part. The omelette was under cooked. There was nearly raw egg inside. There was not an herb to be seen. And the cheese was a lump on one side of the omelette. So, I mentioned this to the waitress. She looked at me and didn't say a word. I asked to mention it to the chef. Not a word. I left it mostly uneaten on my plate. Not a word. Basically, she didn't care. To make matters worse, my niece ate her poached egg on spaghetti squash. About 30 minutes later, she was running to the bathroom. My wife enjoyed her meal. So, at least there is that. I will not go back here. read more

Le Perche is always there when we need it! For coffee or for brunch, it's got a sunny and friendly aesthetic that will make you smile. It's not hard to see why this is a Warren Street mainstay. Up until last week, I had only gone for coffee, but my fiancé raves about the Duck Confit Hash, which is apparently one of the best brunches he's ever had. On our most recent trip we were looking for something a little lighter, which is not easy to find on the menu but it exists. Came here for brunch at around 2:30/3pm on a Sunday. The space itself includes a bar and a decent amount of seating indoors, but we much prefer the backyard patio. Even on a somewhat hot summer day it's calm and comfy and there are big umbrellas to keep you shaded. I can't speak to the boozy part of brunch, but the coffee is great and the food is solid. On our most recent trip, my fiancé got avocado toast with poached eggs, while I got the poached eggs with zucchini, hazelnuts and tahini along with a small garden salad. My fiancé's last avocado toast experience was apparently a bad one (it's hard to screw up so I'm very curious about where this alleged toast was) but the now classic dish redeemed itself for him at Le Perche. As a few others have mentioned, the amount of avocado was definitely excessive. I think we could've gotten an extra piece of bread and expanded the portion with the amount of avocado overflow that was going on there. But aside from that, he absolutely loved it. My plate was good -- not outstanding but not bad -- though it was exactly what I was in the mood for. A little protein, a little healthy fat, a little vedge. It could have done with a bit more salt but that's an easy fix. Oh, and it looks pretty, which is always a plus. Service was efficient. Food came out at an appropriate pace (too fast and I'd be worried). Our server wasn't particularly chipper but I won't fault her for it and we were also hungover so it was probably for the best. read more

Great brunch spot in Hudson. Ordered the French toast, it was a present surprise.

Not at all for me. There is a cozy dining area upstairs, however the kitchen is downstairs with no inside access to the dining area. Thus your food is walked out to the street down to the other end of the building outside and up the stairs. This does not help in keeping your food hot and mine was ice cold when it arrived. I also don't appreciate being served my food before my drinks arrive after about 25/30 minutes after ordering. Cold coffee (i guess for the same reason of journeying outside on its way to my table). No one checked back after the food was served. We sat with dirty dishes in front of us for a good 15 minutes before we had to beg for a check. The companion sitting next to my table was gross at best (wasn't able to tell someone about it because no one came to check on us). I guess I'm just not hipster enough to tolerate mediocre food and complete lack of service. read more

Food was okay! Ambiance was very cute and we came once but were unable to be seated as they were closing in an hour (hostess was really rude to everyone we saw her interact with and us as well) visibly annoyed and stalking around the restaurant and huffily doing her tasks. Some of the other staff seemed equally moody, but the bread looked delicious and seemed popular so we made a reservation for early breakfast and came back. Same rude hostess in the same bad mood and the staff honestly seemed annoyed by the presence of the guests. Almost all of them- not sure if that just has become the acceptable norm- but the food was fine and honestly I don't recommend. read more

Coffee is meh, the food however is sublime. Inventive and delicious. Well worth your time.

*3.5 stars* came with a friend on a Sunday for breakfast when we were visiting Hudson. I got the omelette which came with a side salad and it was very simple and did not have much flavor but because I had a tummy ache from too much food the day before, it was exactly what I needed. My friend got some kind of porridge that had seafood in it I believe and she enjoyed it very much. Very busy place, we were seated at the bar but did not mind at all since it gave us more elbow room than some of the tables that we have seen. We didn't have any problems with the service. A fine place, maybe very popular because there are not many others in the area? but a fine place nevertheless. read more

New town and we were excited to get some a really nice breakfast from Hudson NY before venturing out. After waiting for an hour we finally got a table for 2. Vibe & service: Small but quaint little french bakery vibe and insanely busy like this place is the only place thats open for business on Sunday morning. Service is not there as everyone is insanely busy. Food: We ordered french onion soup, french toast and tuscan kale pesto, poached egg toast. Let's just say that my latte was my least fav and it was already pretty good! French onion soup was not too salty and had amazing umami broth. Probably one of the best french onion soups i had in the last 5 years. French toast when it first came out, we were kind of disappointed bc there was no usual toppinga like berries or powdered sugar but oh boy oh boy! Im still thinking about my first bite which was sooo crispy outside and pillowy fluffy inside was!! It was fluffy like the japanese jiggly pancake. Syrup was not too overly sweet and the toast was not drenched in syrup. Just when i thought it cant get any better, our last dish surprised us!! It was next level goodness. I loved the perfectly poached eggs that were sitting on top of the perfectly toasted sourdough and kale pesto. Amazing balance of nuttiness and garlic and saltiness from cheese. It was beyond amazing and i would def drive 2 hrs just to eat this again! Overall, i loved everything and will def come back to try other dishes!!! Amazing selection of pastries too!! read more

Had brunch on a rainy gray Saturday, and it was lovely. I had the fried rice which was unexpected for brunch but was great. Shared French toast with friends, it was so good - like bread pudding, rich and delicious but not too sweet. The old house was really cool, with the fireplace and the paintings. The staff was excellent, very accommodating and helpful. read more

Cute brunch spot in Hudson with rustic vibes and a nice backyard seating area. Went with family and a couple babies in tow. Very kid friendly and accommodating of certain food allergies. Loved the duck hash for brunch. Prices are on higher end for the area but portion sizes aren't bad. Highly recommend. read more

I went to Le Perche during Covid. And the followed all major protocols- waiters wearing masks, temperature checking, and single use utensils. The service left something to be desired. I know this place is very popular and busy but it took us a ridiculously long time to get our order taken. The food was fresh and tasty but pretty expensive for what you wind up getting . When visiting Hudson again, I would skip this place all together. It's ok, but there are so many more delicious places to grab a bite. read more

Fabulous olive bread and superb food. Great ambience and friendly staff. Perfect for breakfast, midday snack or lunch.

I love brunch at Le Perche. My creamed nettles with poached eggs and local ham was phenomenal, as was my partner's asparagus, crab and crispy brown rice with a poached egg. We sat outdoors under a beautiful art nouveau canopy. Absolutely stunning. The service was also friendly and attentive. It's also a bakery, so we will go back with healthy appetites to try their fresh baked croissants and sour dough breads. read more

I had high hopes but they were dashed. Ordered an almond croissant and it had so little almond that I thought I was given a plain. It was very flaky though. Then I asked what kind of omelets were available and there was no choice and the one offered didn't appeal to me. So I ordered the French toast. A larger than brick size hunk of bread came drenched in maple syrup. That was it. A half loaf of bread and maple syrup. Thankfully the syrup was real not imitation. The cappuccini were perfect and service was friendly. But for almost $60 for breakfast... read more

We came here for dinner. Menu is limited. Food is adequate. Organization is poor. The hostess had no record of our reservation; fortunately the restaurant was not busy and we could be seated. Our waitress was sullen and inefficient. On a 90 degree plus day, she brought lukewarm water without ice and never refilled our glasses. She also forgot our French fries. I would never return. The food does not compensate for the poor and unpleasant service. read more

Quality food at a fair price. Nice vibe to it too! Perfect for brunch as advertised and they do an amazing job on their baked goods and bread. I also had a crispy chicken sandwich and really loved it. Staff were friendly too - highly recommend! read more

From looking at some of the less-than enthusiastic reviews of this place, a common thread I see is a gripe with the staff and their service; sadly, that was my experience at Le Perche as well. Their food is excellent (and that's why I'm giving this three stars instead of one or two---pastries are excellent, lunch entrees are tasty especially the FRENCH TOAST), but the wait staff was really unpleasant, if not, downright rude. Full-disclosure: I came with five other adults and six young children, so yes, we had a big party. However, we reserved a table in advance so our coming wouldn't be a complete surprise to them. The whole time we were there, it was kind of uncomfortable how cold they were towards us, as if we were inconveniencing them with our presence. During the meal, one of the people in our party asked our waitress for another croissant for his son; as she left the back dining room to put in the order in the front, she let out an audible "UGH" as she was walking out. Even when we left, I said "thank you, have a nice day" to some of the wait staff that served our table, and only one of them responded to me with a curt "bye" while leaning on the counter looking in some direction but at us. The restaurant wasn't very full the majority of the time we were there---We were their biggest spender by a mile, why would they be so rude to us? I get that we had six young children and maybe kids aren't really your thing, but we weren't rude to them, nor were our kids disruptive, we were happy to pay a good tip (20%+). Again, their food is excellent and props to them for that, but that wait staff... nope. read more

This may be my first ever negative review on Yelp. However, due to this restaurant's lack of response to the comments that it solicited from me about our experience, I feel compelled to write one so they can hopefully improve. We waited more than 30 mins for two breakfast dishes with no explanation as to why it was taking so long to prepare. The ambience can best be described as impersonal and chaotic. When the food finally arrived, one of the dishes was cold with a poached egg that was basically hard boiled. I did not feel like waiting again so I did not say anything. To make matters worse, we discovered after we left that they overcharged us for one of our meals. I mentioned this to the restaurant in response to the comments section of the text receipt they sent me but they have not responded. We felt the food was overpriced considering the poor execution and slow, detached service. My companion described it as a place that is trying to be something that it is not and I agree. Can't recommend this place. read more

The food was really delicious, but the atmosphere was chaotic. They may have been short staffed, because the wait staff seemed to be running around, but not in a fluid way. Our waitress was super soft spoken and could barely hear her, while another waiter tried to pick up out check twice to run our card after it had already been run. read more

I really miss eating here! The staff was always so attentive. My favorite snack to get there during mid-day is the Frites! They serve it with a house made aïoli and fresh shaved Parmesan on top. The atmosphere is great as well, it has a feel where you can just go in and spend a few hours, maybe do some work. They have great windows upfront and seating! If you are ever in town, stop by you won't regret it! read more
