Bacchus Restaurant, Brewery & Billiards

Some friends and I made a trip from Brooklyn out to New Paltz with the plan of hopping around to different breweries and bars, but after finding this place and being served by Lydia who was an absolute sweetheart, we didn’t even make it to a second spot! the vibes were immaculate, the service was amazing, and the food was stellar!! As a fellow bartender, Lydia went above and beyond and made us feel like we were home with friends. We ate, drank, and played games for hours and had the BEST time! We already want to make a trip back! Huge thanks to Lydia and whoever made my gorgeous smash burger 🫶🏻 Cheers!

We stopped by Saturday early afternoon after a lovely campus tour at Suny New Paltz. It was not crowded so we thought we made a good choice. The apps and drinks came out fairly quickly. But then we waiting more than 45mins for the entrees. A couple and family after us received their food before us. The server was nice enough but not attentive and practically disappeared. Finally I got up to go the bar to get the bill and cancel the rest of the order. The food then comes out but we were all frustrated wasting nearly 2 hours on a beautiful day and we just wanted to leave. We got one sorry like this has happened before, the server who brought out the food look very pissed with us and we don't know what happen to our missing waitress so we paid the bill and left.

Smelled like moldy towel and they set us up at a smaller pool table. Would’ve got 4* if I got a standard sized table. Drinks were amazing!

Big menu and great prices! The beer selection was incredible. The sign out front said 400 beers to choose from and I believe it. I don't know if I have ever seen such a good selection of beers. The atmosphere is so cool. It is classy, but fun. Old fashioned, but trendy. Dark, but comfortable and positive. We had a lovely meal on the second floor. It was quiet and even romantic.

I came here for the first time the other day (Saturday afternoon) after going to a nearby public family event. I was in a group of 5 (one being a minor), and they seated us immediately, although this place definitely wasn't empty. We all enjoyed ourselves. The food was great, the drink menu offered a large variety, the atmosphere was beautiful and the staff was super helpful and friendly. I wasn't very impressed by their cocktail menu, but they made up for it in the other variety of drinks they offer. They also have a bunch of pool tables to play on!
