Eating and drinking

South east Asian street food - and one of the best burgers around. The backbar probably a nice atmospheres in Hudson because of their outdoor garden and cosy interior.

Hands down THE BEST meat and cheese / charcuterie boards in town! It turns into a cute little wine / snack bar in the evenings. Also great for coffee in the morning. Tell Tony, Carolina, Dave and or Raph that Nick and Julia sent you!

Make a reservation in advance of coming! By far the best restaurant in Columbia County (not just Hudson). The ambiance is incredible, the food is superb!!!!! And they have a florist set up in the middle of the restaurant so you can have your own custom bouquet made while enjoying a delicious meal. Say hi to Jason, Joe, Anton and Taylor (the flower wrangler) and tell them Julia and Nick sent you :-)

Again, great cocktails and their menu is always changing - I believe they have a few months of a certain themed cuisine. Their brunch is pretty solid too!

*Alert* Local neighborhood brunch /lunch spot. So good! The Congee and their mushroom soft scramble are our go-to's but they have really interesting specials pop up that you should consider. Oh and YOU MUST GET A STICKY BUN!

Yes, the line is worth it. Yes, It's that good! Norman Jean Roy, the talent behind everything that is breadfolk nailed it, not just with the bread but the pastries are to die for. I have a really bad Canelè addiction and the Kouign-amann are also delish! Just try to be smart around what time you get there. I find around 10.30-11 after the first wave of people get there after opening and before the lunch crowd works best - but that timing can also be a miss.

One of Hudson's newest bars and officially the closest one to walk to from this apartment. Really pretty space and great drinks and snacks. Be sure to try the martini - it's very creatively served.

Groceries

Rolling Grocer are great because they provide convenient, quality food for all -- no matter the income level -- with a priority placed on low-income residents. Food is made affordable through a fair pricing system, similar to sliding scale (see Fair Pricing System for more details). So definitely support them! Plus they have a great variety of stuff!

Check Rolling Grocer first, if they don't have what you need the check out olde hudson. I'm adding this as they do have a good range of high end grocery items but it's quite expensive and the service can be annoying at times. But if you're having a bit of a cook up and don't have a car then this is a decent optin.
