He offered us sparkling water, which really made me feel a lot better. My bf and I will never forget his wonderful thoughtfulness and hospitality for my well-being.

Long story short, I've been following the Maker Hotel on Instagram for quite a while and finally…read morevisited Valentine's weekend! I didn't stay at the hotel because it is pretty pricey, but I visited their Lounge after getting dinner in town. Didn't have a reservation so getting into the restaurant bar was impossible but they told us we could walk around the corner to their lounge. Upon entering the lounge, we were greeted immediately and told that there was no available seating due to full reservations yet half the bar and a few of the lounge tables were empty. The guy said he would take our names and that it could be up to an hour wait so we did that and stood there. After nearly 45 minutes and those empty bar seats + lounge yankee still not being filled, he offered us a half of a couch next to another couple. We would've sat next to them sooner if only he let us! Aside from that, service was fast and drinks were good. The menu included signature cocktails that paired with the Maker's signature fragrances. I tried the Rebel which was pretty good. We ordered some bites -- the beef tartare with onion rings and a side of fries. I love a beef tartare which is so rare to find as many places offer Tuna. It really hit the spot. Moral of the story: Make a reservation!

The place is beautifully decorated, spacious, and super clean, with a great, chill environment. We sat down outside on their dog-friendly patio around 3:20 pm. The servers were kind, drinks arrived a little past 3:30 pm, but our food didn't reach the table until 45 minutes later; the kitchen was clearly slow. This was supposed to be a quick stop, but it ate up a huge chunk of our limited time exploring Hudson, NY. We ordered two slushy cocktails, a basic hot dog, and the crab artichoke dip, and the bill came to over $60, putting us behind schedule.

There were communal tables and chairs lined up near the garage doors. Plus, more lounge seating with couches. The bar was small with about 6-8 stools for seating. Menu-wise, they offer a bunch of great small plate options. It's all Asian inspired foods - we ordered the crab Rangoons which is made from real crab. None of that imitation crab here! For drinks, we both started with the poison flower which was a vodka and hibiscus based drink. It was perfect for me and I ended up having 3! The Old Fashioned was excellent. I'd come back again but will wait until the summertime when they have their lot open with outdoor seating.

We had eaten breakfast about an hour prior, so I wasn't feeling hungry at all... but that quickly changed upon first bite of my meal. I ordered the Savory Porridge, which came with a soft boiled egg, oyster mushrooms, chili crisp sauce (resembles Chinese Lao Gan Ma), and was topped with crispy rice noodles. This. Was. Incredible. I can't stress enough how perfectly the flavors, textures, and ingredients came together. You'll understand what I mean upon first bite. I also had bites of the Grapefruit Brûlée and Biscuit. Both were such a delight. The biscuit was shockingly incredible... on par with high tea in London. The ambiance was festive (came the weekend after Christmas), cozy, and charming. Amazing experience all around.

"We don't have a cocktail menu, but we can make anything you'd like."…read more That was one of the first things our server told us, and honestly, it was refreshing. These days, it feels like every bar has a cocktail menu full of creatively named drinks that require reading a list of ingredients just to figure out what you're ordering. At Governor's Tavern, if you want a gin and tonic, you simply ask for a gin and tonic. The only decision you need to make is which gin you'd like. I'm not much of a cocktail person, but I appreciate that not every place feels the need to reinvent the wheel. The place was packed at lunchtime, but we got lucky and grabbed a pair of seats across from the bar. The server who I quoted was genuinely friendly and welcoming. I ordered a Guinness, but unfortunately the keg had just kicked. She recommended the Samuel Smith chocolate stout instead and even brought me a sample before I committed to taste since I never heard of it, which was a nice touch. For food, we ordered the State Grill burger and the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. Both were excellent, and each came with Belgian-style hand-cut fries. If you're spending the day browsing the boutiques and antique shops along Warren Street and want a drink, a good meal, and a lively mix of locals and tourists, Governor's Tavern is worth a stop.
