Poughkeepsie Waterfront Market

Had dinner on the terrace. Nice views of the river and sunset. Burger, ribs, salads were good. Tried a good local wine. Service was good as well

Limited selection. We went in early June so I should expect a smaller selection but expected more than four. There was a vendor selling apples and some fruits, a vendor selling nice looking greens and plants, a second greens vender, and one person selling organic meat. Everything we bought was good and the people were friendly

Had a great salmon sandwich with greens as well as tasty calimari.....deck is shaded well and with a nice breeze.....service was tops also....try it!

We arrived for a quick lunch Sunday, 6/19/22, and consulted the menu board outside the door. This menu was extensive, which included Brunch. On entry, and upon being seated, we were provided menus, but no Brunch menu was present (maybe Brunch was not on Sunday?...bit not go back outside to check again...not insane, lol). The waitress stated we do not have that anymore. We ordered off the regular menu, no problem; the regular menu was adequate in choices. Our appetizer was calamari...the squid was tender and seemed fresh, but the batter gooey and flavorless, and the oil tasted quite old. Odd, since usually the issue with this item is bad squid....they just ruined a good ingredient. One entree a fried fish sandwich had a very generous portion of way over fried fish, the edges of which were very chewy, almost tendon like, lol. The inside of the fish portion was good, but the burnt batter detracted from the taste. Our hamburger was okay, but not a good as Five Guys (the bun was ice cold, for example), however; sadly, we went here rather than Five Guys in hopes of a slightly elevated dining experience. The French fries were very strange...about 20% were fused together...not sure why that was, but I 've experienced such things when cooking old, frozen fries at home. Their drinks were good and generous, thankfully... This was our second time there, with the first visit being pre COVID and actually quite good. I hope it was just an off day as it is a comfortable space with nice people.

Food was subpar, service was subpar. Waited a long time to get waited on. We actually had to go to the host to get our bill when we were ready to leave. Never did see the waitress again. Quite a disappointment.
