I love an outdoor place on the water. Most of them are overpriced high-end fancy restaurants. It was great to have a place where you can go have a beer and listen to a little music and relax. I do recommend the fish tacos. They were yummy! Great beer selection as well. Everybody who work there was super nice. The only thing I didn’t like was everything is self-served. You’ve got to go to the bar to get your drinks then you have to go to the food counter to get your food. Not the end of the world but I would have preferred full wait service

But hear me out… the spot IS a nice vibe. Bar has a good vibe (but no happy hour specials during the week?)
The food was good but the prices here are too much to justify it. It has so much potential but just falls short as a whole.
I would go back but certainly won’t be paying $20+ dollars for minimal food. This isn’t Disney world lol

This spot has a great vibe, and the bar area is really inviting, though I was surprised there weren’t any weekday happy hour specials. While the food tasted good, the portions felt too small to justify the high price point. The place has a lot of potential, but it falls short on value. I’d consider returning for the atmosphere, but I won’t be spending $20+ on a light snack again—the pricing feels a bit ‘theme park’ for what you actually get.

We were walking around before getting back on our train to head home. We found Barley on the Hudson via Google. It was a very pleasant experience and Liza is the best. We got something light and enjoyed the atmosphere. I don’t usually opt for outdoor dining, for various reasons. However this was such a laid back, enjoyable vibe overlooking the water with ample space between tables. The restrooms were clean and we felt valued as customers. Thank you.

This is my 3rd time here and I will keep coming back. The view and atmosphere is so chill, I always feel like I’m on a vacation here. The customer service is great! Our bartender, Christian, was the best! He was friendly and offered great service. The live band, Mike Ruskin Music, added to the chill vacation vibe. They were great! The food is decent. It’s your average American fare. It’s not bad, not great, it’s decent. I keep coming back, not for the food, but the atmosphere. I would recommend to a friend.

This is a cool spot right on the Hudson in Tarrytown. It has a relatively casual and relaxed vibe. The menu is a bit limited but the food was good. We ordered fish and chips, tuna sandwich, mozzarella sticks, guacamole, corn dip, and fish tacos. You basically seat yourself and order food at the counter and they bring the food to you. Choice of refreshments, especially non-alcoholic was scarce. The staff were nice and helpful. The food was a bit pricy but that’s normal for these riverside food spots.

Barley on the Hudson is the kind of place that you’d see in movie where the lead character owns the somewhat rundown tour boat and he competes against the flashy high-end tour boat …this would be the place he would hang out at and talk to the owner every day.
This is not meant to be an insult. It’s just to give you the visualization.
The entrance isn’t easy to spot, it’s not lit up, and it is between parked cars. The sign says SEAT YOURSELF written nicely in chalk. You walk past bathrooms, and open doors that you don’t go down, to enter into the proper area and it’s …nice.
Big bar with lots of bar seating is available and pushed back further area has many more seats. These are right next to the outdoor kitchen area.
There are tiki torches, one is lit. There are servers but you’re not sure if they are the servers until you see them grabbing food and serving it. But it sort of looks like you go to the cook and tell him what you want ..you don’t ..but it looks that way.
The bartender handled every order I saw and nobody was waiting long….the bar and kitchen staff did not keep anyone waiting, very impressive.
The food was expensive…for food served in an old style basket with paper, it was surprisingly expensive. Everything was about 18.00. The sandwichices came as is and everything extra was 2.00. If you wanted cheese on your burger, 2.00. If you wanted avocado, 2.00. Etc
Guacamole and chips…17.00.
Alcohol was what you’d expect and they did have a decent amount of variety when it came to their beers and the pour was a good size.
The live music was nice. This night had a one man band keyboardist who had a great voice. Played Huey Lewis, Billy Joel, and some modern country and it all sounded good. He did a nice little Beatles Medley that was very well done.
Overall, this isn’t where you go when you want to impress a first date. It is where you go when you’ve been dating and you want to get out and enjoy the night air. You will get decent view of the Tappan Zee if you sit at the end…you will see docked boats…but if you wanted a couple drinks and decent vibe, you’re good here.
This isn’t a place that Bar Rescue would flip out at…but would probably offer some good suggestions…about maybe the entrance way and walkway to the back…about sprucing up the lighting…maybe having the servers wear something different..etc.

That is such a cinematic and descriptive review! You’ve captured a very specific “vibe.” Here are three ways to rephrase it, depending on the tone you want to set:
Option 1: Narrative & Descriptive (Best for a detailed blog or Yelp review)
“Barley on the Hudson feels like the local hangout in a movie—the underdog spot where the gritty hero grabs a drink to escape the flashy high-end crowds. To be clear, that’s a compliment to its character! The entrance is a bit of a ‘hidden gem’ (tucked between parked cars without much lighting), leading you past a few hallways to a surprisingly nice open area with a large bar and plenty of seating near the outdoor kitchen.
The service is impressively fast; despite a slightly confusing layout where you aren’t sure who is a server at first, the staff doesn’t keep anyone waiting. The atmosphere is rounded out by great live music—on my visit, a talented keyboardist played everything from Billy Joel to the Beatles. Just be prepared for the bill: it’s surprisingly pricey for a ‘basket-and-paper’ spot. Most items are $18, with $2 add-ons for things like cheese or avocado, and the guac is $17. It’s not a ‘first date’ spot to impress someone, but it’s a perfect, low-key place for a couple to enjoy the night air and a view of the Tappan Zee.

Nice view of the Hudson and Tappan Zee bridge! I ordered the black bean dip with a side of grilled chicken. It was tasty. Menu is simple. You order at the counter on your way in, seat yourself & order your drinks at the bar.

Found this hidden gem on are way home from Connecticut on a perfect summer day, decided to skip the traffic and look for a spot for a cocktail and nibble. This place checked all the boxes, sunset, live music and delish bar snacks. Will definitely he back. Terry town has some great stuff!
