Brickmen Kitchen + Bar
A gastropub with a little bit of everything—salads, build-your-own burgers, and sandwiches for lunch and steaks, noodle bowls, and a seafood-sushi bar for dinner. 47 North Front Street
Camp Kingston
Created to feel like a summer camp for adults, this café-bar is perfect for coffee with coworkers, playing arcade games and sipping on a beer or two, or grabbing a sandwich to-go. 36 St. James Street
Eliza
One of three new ventures by the team behind High Falls’ Ollie’s Pizza (the other two are Fletcher & Lu and Ollie’s Slice Shop), Eliza is a dinner-only spot with a simple but elevated menu. Share tapas like grilled olives and rice grits; go for the fish & chips entrée. 582 Broadway
Fletcher & Lu
Find all the charcuterie, cold cuts, baked goods, and pantry staples you could ever need at this old-word delicatessen next door to Eliza. Weekly sandwiches and to-go dinner plates are available. 582 Broadway
Lone Wolf
Former Fuchsia Tiki Bar (New Paltz) owners Anton Kinloch and Lisa Dy bring inventive cocktails—try the pandan old fashioned—and Asian bar bites (from bao buns to spicy tuna crispy rice) to the space that once housed Lis Bar. On Sundays, stop by for special tropical drinks and mocktails. 240 Foxhall Avenue
Los Jalapeños
This Mexican eatery beloved by SUNY New Paltz students opened a second location in northern Kingston. Expect the same authentic menu of delicious guac, tacos (grilled shrimp is a fave), and flautas. 772 Ulster Avenue
Mirador
Come here for great tapas from Andalusia, the region along Spain’s southern coast. Pair Spanish sherry or vermouth with patatas bravas, fried shishito peppers in chili oil, razor clam conserva, and grilled head-on prawns. 636 Broadway
Ollie’s Slice Shop
New York City-style slices and pies with your choice of cheese/sauce (cheese, white, vodka, tomato, vegan, Sicilian, gluten-free) and over 15 types of toppings. Plus, there’s meatball heroes, two types of salad, and garlic knots. 580 Broadway
Salt Box
This two-floor dive bar with retro furniture and cabaret accents serves up affordable draft and canned beers—plus some no-frills cocktails—and snacks like tater tots and tinned fish with crackers. Plus they’re open daily until 3 a.m. 10 Crown Street
Urban Fork
Comfort food (we’re talking chicken and biscuits, mac ‘n ’ cheese, chili egg rolls) is done right at Urban Fork’s second location in Uptown. Bonus: the new spot offers weekend brunch. 288 Wall Street
Coming Soon
Be on the lookout for Nightswim—a sleek bar with pub food (like smash burgers) in the former The Anchor space—and Unicorn Bar, a queer-friendly spot that will host live music and other performances.
