Rafter's Burger
Jessica V.

This is such a classic timeless tavern. From the photos of Chip Forelli to Dawn serving us, my parents and I had an incredible time here. The vibes are immaculate, especially with the live band. The food is great and just right for a tavern like this. Brewster even came out to give us his rapid fire hot sauce (ask for it if you see him). Such a kind staff and warm cozy bar.

We had the best time at Rafters! Great food and drinks, super-friendly service and awesome atmosphere. Charming building & decor. The live music was the icing on the cake...so good. The wings and burgers were fantastic, as was the drink selection. We fell in love with Callicoon and Rafters Tavern was a large part of that. Can't wait to return and bring friends & family!

We are so grateful fir the place!

This restaurant is definitely a gem in Callicoon . Quaint…read moreclassy place with its time stamped era. We loved just walking through the velvet curtains at the door opening . We sat by the fire and had the most lovely cocktails all made up by their mixologist. We tried the minty Negroni, forest flame, alpine smoke, espresso martini and a few others . Dinner time ! Holy smokes ! Oysters Devine !! We had the roasted pork Pasta lemon And tilefish Wow the heirloom roasted carrots with pistachio and lebani was incredible . I will return here I hope sooner than later . The special touches of their glassware their kindness and service! Can't wait to taste this seasonal menu again . The black walnut Liqueur for desert the best ! I want more

I recently celebrated my birthday at Black Walnut and had such a great experience…read more Everything we ordered was delicious and really well prepared. For starters we had marinated Italian olives and the heirloom carrots. The roasted poularde, rigatoni, and pan-seared tilefish were all standouts, and the desserts especially the chocolate trifle and pavlova were the perfect way to end the meal. Our waitress Sarah was amazing, super kind, attentive, and made us feel really taken care of throughout the night. The atmosphere, service, and quality of the food all came together to create a memorable birthday dinner. I would absolutely return and highly recommend it for a special occasion or a well deserved night out.
