Rhinebeck
Rhinebeck is more than just a tourist shopping destination. It's a working town, the center of a vigorous, distinctively creative, community. You can find here all levels of cuisine, from the inspired products of the finest graduates of the nearby Culinary Institute to the humble cafe. All are excellent. All, area code 845.
 

 

BREAKFAST, COFFEE BREAKS  LUNCH  |  FINE DINING
Pete's Cafe
Perfectly ordinary
A classic country cafe--for Rhinebeck. Full of ex-New Yorkers, you'll feel right at home. Good food, and all of Rhinebeck outside just waiting for you to finish that coffee and the Times.

Bread AloneCafe
Organic breads from a wood-fired brick oven
The organic and traditionally-baked loaves from the "Bread Alone" bakery just out of town have become a staple of NYC gourmets. Feast on fresh breads and pastries.
Pandemain Bakery
Fresh baked breads and pastries.
If you like to make fresh coffee and baked goods the centerpiece of your breakfast, enjoy the bright cheerful mood of Pandemain.
Samuel's
Hometown service with city savvy
This is some sweet deal. Coffee, pastries, just two tables, and a candy counter. Tons of character.


LUNCH  BREAKFAST, COFFEE BREAKS  |  FINE DINING
Calico
Restaurant & patisserie
Calico is really a dinner place, but forget it, you'll never get in, it's always reserved way ahead. So make do with lunch, and those fabulous pastries.
Fosters Coach House
Steak house with an equine motif
Inside REALLY dark. Traditional dark-wood bar and restaurant. And stable and horse-carriage themes. Unusual, a treat for horse-lovers.
Garden Street Cafe
Straight from the source
A charming cafe right inside Rhinebeck Health Foods store. So you know it's good.
Schemmy's
Like no other
Rhinebeck's hole-in-the-wall. An institution. You recognize it by the large ice-cream sign outside.
Rhinebeck Grill & Cantina
Southwestern cuisine in cafe setting
If you're looking for where to have that discussion about the significance of the utopian novel this might be the place. Good food and a sidewalk cafe frequented by Bard and Vassar students.
Village Pizza
And much else
Pizza of course, and first rate, a reminder of why you used to like it so much. But also Jane's ice cream, Italian desserts, and good coffee.

El Toro Guapo
Cafe and dining
Haute cuisine Spanish/American style, in dashing environments inside and out. Excellent food, authentic Hispanic beers, spirited margeritas.
Terrapin
Exotic, and fine
Yes, it's a church, or was. Now it's an elegant restaurant, plus a bistro. Renowned for fine dining, in an elegant lofty setting. The dishes often borrow from exotic cuisines.
40 West
The new dining frontier
40 West brings excitement to Rhinebeck's dining scene. Stylish cuisine, a strong presence, a youthful vigor.
Traphagen Restaurant
Dine in the oldest Inn in America
The food has always been excellent here, and you can have it served in any one of the many bars and nooks squirreled away in this romantic inn.
Gigi
Trattoria
A little bit of Italy, a little bit of sidewalk Manhattan, plus a little bit of Rhinebeck. You can't go wrong.
Le Petit Bistro
Classic French bistro
Fine food in the French tradition can't ever go out of style. Enjoy that experience here.
Osaka
Japanese dining
One of Rhinebeck's most strikingly realized exotic ambiences. A branch of the very successful "Osaka" restaurant in Tivoli.
Panda
Gourmet Chinese
Fine, fine, fine chinese dining, very reasonably priced, with good service. Excellent for dining before or after seeing a movie round the corner at Upstate Films.
