A wide variety of choices -- inside or out -- In aesthetic and comfortable settings. From great burgers to haute cuisine. More

Enjoyed a fantastic dinner with friends in late March. Had read good things on TA and others places so decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed. The room was comfortable and inviting. A bit loud at times, but not overbearing. Varied menu with interesting ingredients made it tough to choose. The whole table was very pleased with... More

We've frequented Rock & Rye since opening last year and have always had an incredible experience. We've enjoyed cuisine all throughout the Northeast and are local residents in the New Paltz area. We're in our late 20s and are 'maturing' so wanted a place we could go for great food and not be plagued with college kids. We were very... More

Plan on having a good GPS to find this restaurant! LOL! Rock & Rye Tavern is located a bit off the beaten path in New Paltz. Not any direct route here. The drive to find it and the facade of the building were a little off-putting at first. Once you see their unique menu with meals made from all local... More

I have been to R&R a few times since they opened and find myself continually surprised by how rich the various dishes taste. The surprise is that it’s not because of crazy seasoning but the fact that the ingredients are so fresh and of such high quality. Try the flat iron steak and you will know what I’m talking about...

If you're someone who craves a well crafted, expertly executed, and yet not pretentious food and drink experience then run, don't walk to Rock and Rye Tavern. From the perfectly lit tavern room, to the polished stone bar, the atmosphere sets the tone for what is always a pleasurable experience. The cocktails are not your average well swill, they are...

The food is great, and i like that they do their best to use local ingredients whenever possible. the beer selection isn't as extensive as i would have liked, as they tend to focus more on warmer, heavier brews than i...

I love cool, old mixed drinks. This place should be top for me. The drinks were reasonably interesting, well-made, but you are pay $8-$10 for a tiny glass with your fancy drink. Okay, I understand (mostly). This way, at least, I can try a bunch of different cocktails. But when I wait for someone to take my drink order for... More

Admittedly, I'd been to Rock n Rye before tonight. Despite the realm of places to grab a bite or a drink in New Paltz -- from high-end, highly marketed venues, to awesome, inexpensive Main Street joints–no place compares to Rock n Rye. It's a stand-out. The "off the map" locale (maybe half mile from main strip)..an ancient, refurbished inn, provides... More
