Food scene

There are many restaurants to choose from and a few of my favorites are listed here. All are just a brief stroll away down Broadway to the Rondout creek.
Mariners Harbor is a great place to sit and have a drink at their outdoor bar, or have a meal sitting on their outdoor patio. The menu includes seafood, steaks, etc.
