Lots of people plying pool and a live band as well really set the vibe for a good time. Good selection on tap for beers, would love to see some more ciders too! There was also a good bonfire going on outside for those that want to escape the noise. The bartenders were also really nice and efficient with getting drinks out. Overall recommend to bring some friends or after a dinner date.

The best bar in Woodstock…read more I wish I could be a first time patron at small talk again, to relive the excitement I felt when I realized this would be my new favorite bar. I moved from Chicago and was looking for a new place to go get drinks after work. Tried many places until someone mentioned small talk to me. I tried the last word cocktail and it's been my go-to every single time I visit. We have tried the ciders, the flights, the food, cocktails and even asked for off-menu suggestions for shots and drinks and these mixologists get it right every single time. It doesn't matter who's behind that bar, is an all star crew, everyone's so nice, knowledgeable and quick. Shoutout to all of you. The place can get packed, but people move fast, with some patience you will be seated within 30 minutes. The lights are dimmed for more intimacy and with some luck you can go upstairs and see an art exposition on your way to the bathroom. If you want a place to decompress, hang out with friends, meet interesting people and make great memories, just become a regular at small talk :)

Spent the weekend visiting the Hudson River-eastern Catskills area and decided to visit Woodstock…read more There's no shortage of restaurants to choose from, but after driving past Pearl Moon the vibes were what we were looking for, for an early lunch. We were seated right away and had the option to choose from their brunch or lunch menu. There's something for just about everyone, including vegan options. I opted for a Spicy Luna cocktail, my partner selecting a draft beer. The cocktail was excellent with the perfect kick of spice. We opted to have Lenny B's Smoke Trout Salad, the French Onion soup and split the Smoked Duck Quesadilla. The food came out in a timely manner, made with fresh ingredients, and was very tasty. Between the food, the service and the ambiance, if we lived locally, we'd definitely come back.

I had the "Pita Plate" that was kind of a charcuterie plate with grilled chicken, toasted pita triangles, plenty of hummus, rolled grape leaves, and Greek salad. It was excellent. The service by Ella was delightful. The noise level was pretty high as there was a lot of boisterous laughter occurring. Woodstock, NY is a tourist town with plenty of shops and a very walkable Main Street. There are still remnants of the Hippie lifestyle left over from the Woodstock concert of 1969 (which occurred fifty miles away) due to a lack of available space in Woodstock. A great way to spend a day!

We went to Good Night for dinner on a Tuesday recently and it was a great experience…read more The vibe of this place is great. It really felt like a cool, upscale dining. We were pleasantly surprised to see how many people were there that night, which helped contribute to the atmosphere. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive. We started with the Tteok Bokki and Crispy Wild Shrimp with Shishito peppers. We also got the Bibimbap and the Vietnamese steak frites. The flavors throughout this meal were well developed and delicious. The Tteok Bokki was so special and cheesy and delicious. Almost like a chewy rice noodle Asian Mac and cheese vibe. The wild shrimp dish was great. The components were all great, what was super surprising was how amazing the shishito peppers were. It was the best bite of that dish, which is saying a lot. The mains were equally as good. The flavors were all there. The steak was tender and delicious. The bibimbap was so good. We happily took home our leftovers. Overall, it was a great experience. It was a good price, given how well everything was executed, and I would happily come back either just for cocktails and apps or for the full meal.

We were invited by friends to come check out the Shelter at Woodstock…read more First off, when you're driving here, GPS has you turn into a driveway where there's a clothing store. Keep going...we were wondering if we were in the wrong place but the place is in the back! The vibes are warm, rustic, hunting cabin type with wood tables, wood stacked decoratively on the walls and antler type light fixtures. We sat at a table by the wood-fired oven and we loved it. That smoky wood fireplace smell We started with drinks, the guys ordered IPAs on tap...I went for the hot cider with a dash of bourbon. I found it light on the booze but I find that true most places. For an app, we shared a slice of toast topped with burrata. The thing was bigger than I thought. It was good. We decided to all order one of the specials, the short rib dinner with polenta and broccolini. Good Lord was it good. Huge short rib, delicious and tender, with a yummy Malbec Demi-glaze that was delicious. The rib sits on a big portion of polenta --seriously the best I've ever eaten. The broccolini was nice. I can see why they were running out of that dish for the night. Hubby ordered a mousse dessert that he enjoyed. I was too full to eat anymore. Our waiter was amazing with great recommendations and friendly as anything. I definitely recommend!!!!

Great concert but I had to leave for a few in middle to get a fan because I thought l was going to pass out. Bathroom design from the 80s I guess, huge bathroom with many stalls for men and 1 man in there and women's bathroom smaller only a few stalls and a line of 30 women like why can't they redesign this? One small heat pump a/c hanging on the wall in back of the theater with hundreds of people crammed in soaking wet with sweat. It's great beyond that but it's like they're practicing to be a theater. Ate at the Mexican restaurant there beforehand which food was okay average not bad, very convenient and they had a/c but theater was a mess it was hot before concert even started.

There's a Mexican restaurant and Tavern right next door, which are nice amenities. There was also plenty of parking and the outside was well lit. The Theater itself felt brand new. It was super modern and clean. There was a small bar with various drinks. As far as food, I only saw candy and chips listed. Water was also $4 and came in an environmentally friendly bottle. Bathrooms were downstairs, which wasn't an issue for me but could be for someone with limited mobility. If you have limited mobility and plan on visiting, I would call to ensure the restrooms can be accessed. The room where the musicians perform is large and there is a small seating area upstairs, which is a different, more expensive ticket. I did see about 5 or 6 stools downstairs for those who need to sit. Unfortunately, the main act was unable to perform but the theater did send out an email several hours before the show started to let guests know their options so that was appreciated. Overall, it's a really nice venue for a show!

It was a Thursday so maybe things weren't as busy as normal but we showed up a little early and the back biergarten was open so we got some drinks as it was a nice spring afternoon. The bartender was very friendly and when we attempted to bring our drinks around front she let us know that we had to finish them first. The Venue itself reminded me a bit of the nearby Levon Helm studios in that it's an open space with a balcony overlooking everything and seating and standing room on the base floor. One thing I loved about this show is the sound was great. We sat stage left but the PA was subtly piping the DJ and guitar parts from stage right. It wasn't a huge crowd but people were having a good time with some standing room in front of the bar dancing etc. The bartenders were super attentive and responsive during the performance. I have been to Bearsville, Levon Helm and now Colony and I really feel lucky to have such intimate performance spaces somewhat locally. All of the staff were super friendly. Will be back for sure!

Bar was overflowed and took a long time to save everyone, I think no one expected the crowd of that size. Kitchen worked smoothly and food was bar quality but decent. We had a lot of fun and definitely will be back. I took away one star because of the luck of seating. Not enough tables or bar space or any kind of seating for everyone. Only about 50 people who got there at the opening had a chance to get a seat. Others like us lucked out and had to figure out how to eat without a table .

I am a sucker for a good cocktail bar. The fact they offer bao buns was enough for us to stop in…read more The baos come in mushroom or duck, in a flight of 3. We ordered the duck. All you could taste was the hoisin. So sweet it buried the duck and the pickled vegetables. Why was it garnished with random lettuce? Who knows? The heavy-handed hoisin was bad, but the buns' lack of fluffiness was downright depressing. The cocktails were a blast. The one mocktail was a hit. The tiki-themed Portal, served in a poisoned-apple mug, was fun. The espresso martini was the highlight of the night. I could have used 40oz of it. Recommend the drinks. Skip the bao.
