Food Scene

Jamie is the owner/operator/ray of sunshine of this center-of-town coffee/breakfast/lunch spot. The Buzz truly feels like the place where friends come to catch up. Tasty food and a homey atmosphere make this a great breakfast stop.

The View is fantastic and the food is pretty good. Really best on a cool evening before the sun goes down. Excellent salads as well as casual sandwiches.

Best for its proximity to the Cottage, they have recently upgraded their lakeside patio. Sadly, food is barely adequate. Inside is a relic of another time. Check-out the bar for its Delft tiles, but best to go on a nice afternoon or evening for a cocktail. Some evenings will feature a singer/guitarist.

This restaurant is a bit fancy upstairs. Downstairs is casual and very "old Americana". Perfect for fall and winter evenings with a roaring fire in a cozy room.

OMG - the view! Overlooks Warwick Valley. Locally made ice cream from cows that live just down the hill. Delish. Lines can be quite long, but it is a treat!

Great views from their dock on the east side of the lake. Indoor space is quite nice too. As for the negatives, food and service is hit and miss.

This new restaurant / bar is about two miles away. It is a nice space, but small, and tight parking. The food is hit and miss, but it is a new place with potential. It has been a while since we have been there, so may be worth checking it!

Drinks & Nightlife

Great back country roads will lead you to this fun and festive winery. They offer wine tastings as well as have a delicious pizza and salad menu. Their cider is pretty good. Live music on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Bring a blanket and enjoy a sunny afternoon outside or hope for a table inside in the off-season. Two other wineries you might consider Applewood (small, occasional music, good cider) and Brotherhood (nice space).

Out in the country a ways, but great for Hard Cider and OK wine. Usually has a BBQ truck. Not as crowded as Warwick Valley Winery, but isn't quite as festive.

Parks & Nature

For those looking for a moderately challenging hike, let's try the Surprise Lake Loop. It is an uphill walk with some rocky outcrops to get up. From the house, go down the hill, make a right, and go about 1.5 miles. A small parking lot will be on your right (some boats will be stored there too), just after the NY/NJ state line, across from the Greenwood Lake Marina. Follow the trail up Up UP! Fantastic views of the whole lake before you get to the lake. http://www.nynjtc.org/files/u1/PettyHJH_chp24-SurpriseLakeLoop.pdf
