I liked the atmosphere of the place—there are lots of natural plants, and the dried flowers on the tables are a nice touch. Overall, the food was good, but the coffee was disappointing. The cappuccino was too bitter and served in a glass that was too hot to hold comfortably.
I agree with previous comments regarding portion sizes—they are small for the price, and there is a lack of communication from the servers.
We ordered avocado toast with extra eggs, and it felt like they reduced the amount of avocado because the egg covered part of the bread. As a result, the avocado only covered about half of the bread and it was very thin. Good that they bring extra avocado when I mentioned this to our server.
Items from the kids’ menu come with a choice of side, which I didn’t notice at first. However, the waiter didn’t ask what we wanted and brought fries by default. As others have mentioned, spoons for coffee are not provided unless requested.
Additionally, one of my children initially ordered from the kids’ menu with a fruit side, then changed her mind and ordered from the regular menu. Despite this, the side was still brought and charged without confirming with us

Went here for lunch, everything was delicious. I think it is worth the prices because the quality of the food. The only reason I took a star off is because we got the cheese board appetizer which in the description said it would come with jam and pickles, which is part of the reason we ordered it. We got 3 delicious cheeses with crackers and a pepper. It would have been nice if they at least told us when we ordered they were out of the pickles and jam. Either way overall good experience.

This new menu was absolutely amazing!! Chef Spencer definitely hit the nail on the head with his menu!! The appetizers were super tasty! The chicken was crunchy crispy and super moist!! Great flavors! Had the Tivoli mushroom tacos were out of this world. The salmon ratatouille was on another level!! Had to have dessert after a phenomenal meal. Everything was fantastic. The new manager Jordan stopped by to make sure everything was good, the music that was playing fit the mood.

Was pretty disappointed by this place. Amazing location and gorgeous inside & out, waitstaff was wonderful & accomodating, but the pricing just doesn’t match up with the food quantity and quality. The food was good and fresh, but $20 for three tacos without meat is egregious (the mole was great, but pumpkin was an odd choice, butternut probably would have worked better). My partner ordered the fall grain bowl with chicken added and it was $34. We also ordered the squash donuts as an app which were my favorite part of the meal. But overall, we spent $86 BEFORE tip, we didn’t order any alcohol, and left still feeling hungry. Unfortunately we won’t be back here.

This used to be one of our favorite places in the Hudson Valley. Unfortunately — though the atmosphere is fantastic and the service is 1st rate and caring — the food has slipped. Despite a creative menu, it under-delivers now. Four of us ate there last night, celebrating a birthday; my wife ordered the steak frites and it was inedible — so tough it couldn’t be chewed and swallowed and it reportedly tasted bad, too. (And was expensive.) The cheese board that I ordered for the table was listed as coming with pickles; nope, a very small selection of fine-tasting cheese slices with no pickles in sight. Few crackers as well and not enough cheese slivers. = $24.00. With only one of us having a pre-dinner drink, everyone else drinking water, the bill came to about $300. So…the value just isn’t there, currently, unless you think of it as renting a nice place to gather. We were, surprisingly, disappointed after great experiences there previously.
(After reading the restaurant’s response, below, I want to add that EARLIER reviews cited the missing pickles on the cheese board as an issue and the restaurant responded by saying they would work to make sure the menu was reflective of what was actually served. They didn’t and I walked right into it; ordered a very tiny cheese board with no pickles for $24.) I wish I had enough faith in their correcting what they note and acknowledge needs to be corrected, but…it still doesn’t change the basic value issue or the decline in quality of food quality. I’m not going to be giving them another visit, but — if you do — be forewarned.

Well. An attempt was made. But the basics are sorely lacking. At Brunch…when you order coffee, you’d expect spoons to also be available. (Nope. Separate ask, separate trip) When you order the “Belgian waffle with Seasonal Jam”, you’d expect the waffle to come out WITH the Jam and butter and the side of bacon that was ordered. The Jam was a separate trip. The Bacon came out after we were done eating (after we inquired about it multiple times). And we did NOT eat fast. And the waffle was underdone. Our coffee was never topped off so by the time our food came out it was cold. And apparently they have no coffee pots, so to refresh the coffee required the waitress to take the cup and saucer inside to refill. (?!) And let’s be clear, this was not espresso or cappuccino…just basic coffee. Any diner handles it better. The side of toast was not toasted, one side was put on the griddle …not inherently bad per se, but the other side was cold and the toast tasted like griddle vs sour dough. And for the price? No. The management needs to seriously review its ops, and it’s training of both back of the house and front of the house staff. But the outdoor seating area is lovely.

We were 6 people including a 3 year old and a 95 year old. A big thank you to our server, Christine, who was so friendly and made great recommendations. She quickly put in the order for our 3 year old, a big help. One of us dairy free, and no problem. We tried all of the appetizers and the hush puppies were delicious. Branzino, tacos, burger, chicken pot pie were our mains – all terrific. Dunkaroos with sprinkles – like madeleines with a dip – yum! The blueberry bread pudding special – a hit! We were in the mezzanine level and it was essentially our own dining room – perfect for our family. Also, we really liked the music – a nice atmosphere.

Our second time here. Service is always excellent (except nothing’s “in our way”—it’s all things we ordered and enjoyed!). We thought the Nashville hot chicken wasn’t hot!, so our server Christine brought more hot honey, and that helped. We appreciated their creative thinking! ❤️ Each time we’ve been seated at the little cafe tables in armchairs. They are cute but not the best for dining. And the lighting from the open kitchen is cold. Still, we’re glad to be in this charming spot.

Loved it. We showed up early at 5pm and didn’t have to wait. We had a lobster roll and a bunch of sides and small plates, some of which I scarfed down without even taking a photo like creamed corn and greens. Each dish was very good! In a town where we found practically nothing open at 5pm on Tuesday, Restaurant Kinsley was an oasis of taste.

We just had cocktails and appetizers in the bar area. The Uptown cocktail was my favorite. For apps/snacks we had the ricotta bread was sooo delicious but a little pricey for the portion. The chick pea bar snack was great as well. Bartender is professional, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Bonus – we found out that during happy hour (4-6pm Mon-Thurs), all of the cocktails were $12!
