    The Wherehouse turned out to be everything we didn't know we needed- truly the kind of accidental gem that makes the night. Halloween night at that. We'd been striking out, one call after another, as every spot in our town decided to close up early that night. So landing a last-minute res. at this tiny, offbeat bar-restaurant in Newburgh, NY felt like a win. We just wanted a few bites+drinks before heading to Briarcliff Manor for a Halloween party and ended up finding way more than that. Unbeknownst to us, The Dylan Doyle Band played that night and man...was he good. The kid uses funk, rock, blues, R&B in his mix. Plus he sang his own renditions of D'Angelo- to honor him that night, Chaka and several others. I mean...he absolutely blew us away! But imagine this: it's got the vibe of Tarantino's From Dusk Till Dawn bar feel, minus the vampires and gore. This place is welcoming, unpretentious, serves decent bar food and has an excellent vegan menu that goes wayyyy beyond the usual portobello burger. Carnivores are covered too. Drinks are ok too. But do let them know light on the ice. We got music- a live band at that, decent food and had a fantastic time. This is Wherehouse.

    Chris behind the bar remembered me from the only one time he's served me - handed me a vegetarian menu as soon as I sat down. I have never had one menu item that I didn't absolutely LOVE. I could eat here every day of my life. As a vegetarian, they have THAT many options to choose from! Bathrooms are clean, bar is cozy, lots of friendly locals.

    Went on a first date here in 2023 ago and just married him! The food and ambiance at The Wherehouse are fun, conducive of good conversation, and make you feel like you know everyone! We make a point of stopping by and reliving our first date on a regular basis. You can't go wrong with the burgers and the cuisine feels very elevated for the type of establishment. Love the staff too!

    Mac and cheese is serious business. I had the Philly mac and friend had one of the burgers.

    Barnyard blast Burger
    Erica A.

    Sooooo many options! Love that the had a huge menu with so many great options, and a whole separate menu for vegetarians and vegans with just as many options. They have some creative veggie dishes. We ordered the barnyard blast burger and a vegan BLT. Food came out fast and was tasty. Servers were friendly and helpful. It's small inside but had quite a few tables. Cozy and eclectic. Wish this was closer to us. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5, is that they brought me a glass to pour my beer into, and it still had lipstick on it from someone else.

    Yall ever have that type of spot that makes you feel like you could relocate to whatever city it's in? Welp, Wherehouse was that for me this weekend. My friend and Newburgh native and I were catching dinner after a day at the lake. We usually keep it simple - burgers, beer, and wings for our post-fun eats and she was excited to take me here. "This will be our kind of vibe," she said. As soon as I walked in I knew she was right. Moody lighting, nice range of drafts (no sours though, booooo), great kitsch and artwork on the walls. Laid back and local. I ate good at the lake so kept it on the lighter side for late dinner. Here's our roundup: Korean garlic wings Portuguese calamari Brisket potato skins Mexican street corn The wings were legit - juicy, a little kick on the tongue. And the corn made a nice road snack back to NJ (mind your business). My friend enjoyed her 2 dishes and beer and I snagged a yummy bourbon cocktail with my wings and corn. Service was solid and personable. Def a spot where if you come enough you'll have a fave server. Oh and for my big friends, the seats are solid wood. And we love that!

    Bacon cheeseburger and fries
    Brian B.

    This may well be the best place to get a burger. It is a dive, but that is what makes this place so awesome. Everywhere you look, there is something way cool to see. The burger is beyond good. The bun compliments the burger well. The fries need to be a bit crispier, but then I didn't come here for the fries. And this place has a HUGE beer selection from many local breweries.

    Nadine S.

    Ambience is dive bar, service is just ok, food - other than a great burger - was meh. There are so many other places around with better food and service.

    Pulled Pork Sandwich
    Nandita K.

    Good food, large portions, friendly wait staff - couldn't have been happier! Stopped by here for lunch after spending the day at stormking - we came in ravenous and the place did not disappoint. We got the buffalo mac n cheese, poutine, pulled pork sandwich and the chilli digs and everything was delicious.

    Without a doubt top class classic bacon cheeseburger
    Alresch J.

    Great burger, great appetizers and a slew of fantastic drinks. There seem to be more staff and folks tending the bar that I seem to remember over the last couple of years but there's nothing wrong with that. For the locals the wherehouse is definitely a comfortable place to go, a great place to hang out on the weekends especially in the summer. Tons of parking around the area and lots of other little things to go and see as well on Liberty street. But with the live music and the good food you can spend a couple hours here without a problem.

    Awesome bathroom art
    Kate K.

    Had a kickass time here for drinks w the pals a few weeks back. It was crowded but in a good way- everyone was having a great time and it felt like a chill and friendly atmosphere. We only stopped in for drinks but I checked the menu out after I went home and the selection plus the vegetarian menu.. I will be back to try out the eats. Artsy decor and the bathroom was dope Alice in wonderland theme! Affordable beverages and from the smells coming from the kitchen, idk what the good prices are (which are affordable as well) bc I'll be back!

    Nicole F.

    Stopped in while visiting the area to grab some drinks. Although it took a bit to have our drinks delivered, our server was extremely friendly. Very cool, artsy scene. They have a few tables setup outside. I'd definitely like to come back and try some food. The menu is quite extensive!!

I was craving something hearty and healthy so naturally, I went for the pearly bowl which originally comes with couscous, roasted cauliflower, golden raisins (trust me these add THEEEE touch), pickled red onions (YUM), tahini sauce, avocado, and a lemon-mint vinaigrette - THISSSSSS. I ended up substituting the couscous for quinoa which was perfect for the type of meal I wanted before traveling. Can we talk about that lemon-mint vinaigrette? It's perfectly green and brings the whole bowl together, SO GOOD. Wish I would've gotten a whole side of that. Ordering delivery through Yelp is so easy thanks to DoorDash and I was so thankful I didn't have to be stuck eating chips and m&ms - love these but I needed a little something more. Next time you're taking a flight from Newburgh airport be sure to get delivery from Ms Fairfax. Can't wait to try their crepes and green goddess wrap from their breakfast and lunch menu!

Street parking available, as well as a municipal lot around the corner. Near a historic site to check out as well, Washington Headquarters. Greeted as I walked in, asked if I had reservations (which I didn't), I was shown the tables available inside & was told I could sit in the back area as well. They also have a cute table in the front outside as well. I sat in the backyard while I waited for my friend to arrive. The establishment has a chill summer vibe. All the staff were friendly & attentive. The special was the red snapper & OMG, they need to just put it on the menu! It was delicious, fried to perfection & had alot of meat. I am not a hummus fan but the appetizer my friend orderd-the hummus was tasty.

First, the bartender was so lovely! I don't drink so I was truly impressed with the number of non-alcoholic beverage options available. I initially ordered a non-alcoholic drink, but then I saw the Shark Attack Mocktail and asked if I could switch to that. Thankfully I caught her right before she started making the first drink! The mocktail was sooo cute and actually really tasty! (See photo I included). I loved the theme of it, especially as summertime is officially here. Now let's talk about the arcade part of this place! The machines take quarters, so use the ones you have in your pocket! No quarters? No problem! They have a machine that will give you them, however it only accepts $1 and $5 bills. No cash? Also not a problem! They have an ATM on site. They really did think of everything, here! Most of the games are old skool, such as Pac-Man, Pinball, Dance Dance Revolution, etc. They also have a claw machine, however it's rigged so don't waste your time or quarters on it (which is exactly what I did, hahah!). Pac-Man is two players and my husband and I had a lot of fun with that one! I also LOVED Dance Dance Revolution (located in the far left corner in the back, behind the bar area) and wish I had found it before I wasted most of our quarters. Most of the games take anywhere from $0.50 to $1 to play, so keep that in mind. The patio is very large and much quieter compared to inside. I loved the atmosphere with all the string lights! They also have two little seating areas that are gated (which kind of look like adult playhouses?) which I think would be an awesome spot to chill with your friends + your dog. No fear of your pup running off! Regarding food: they do have a small menu, however it's mostly snack items like mozzarella sticks, a giant pretzel, things to that nature. What's cool, though, is that they offer vegan chicken nuggets!! Not a lot of bars have these, so it's definitely worth noting. 11/10 recommend that you stop in here while visiting Beacon! We absolutely loved it and would come back in a heartbeat!
