Comfortable atmosphere, but it can be loud at times (this is not a problem if you are ready for it/expecting it). The service is good (could be better in some cases, but it's not bad) & the staff is very friendly. The food is delicious!! The menu has variety, something for every taste!

We came in as a large group of family/friends. We were initially approached by what seemed to be the hostess/barback (known as “Batman”). Instantly faced with an attitude for having a large group. We came in very respectful, not demanding of anything. We were not pushy about a table and we’re completely happy standing around and just ordering drinks until a table opened. She gave nothing but disgusting attitude about our presence. Very snotty about where we were standing and obviously annoyed by anything we did; making us feel unwelcome multiple times. Once we did get a table we had other people that we knew show up and she continued to give them attitude about being with the “large group.” She is a horrible person to have greeting anyone at the door. She has no personality and made us coming into the bar/restaurant uncomfortable. She can really ruin the great vibe of the establishment. The rest of the bartenders/staff were nothing but amazing and they were completely apologetic for her behavior throughout the night. Her behavior should not be a reflection of the other staff at all. Unfortunately…all it takes is one sour patch to ruin the vibe… and you have that one person as part of your staff. Meal type Other Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 1

Batman or the so called hostess is terrible. Everyone who was working is 10 out of 5 stars and constantly apologized for her behavior. Food was great, drinks perfect but this Batman character needs to go back to her bat cave for a reflection on her career. Sour apple that taints the bushel. Come and enjoy but avoid BATMAN!

We went following a Marist football game. First, the team was quick to find us a spot, as there are limited tables. Second, attentive service that helped get 3 students back from the brink of starvation. Third, all the food was great and well presented. The nachos, add chicken, were huge and delicious 😋 entrees included caprese chicken sandwich and shaved beef as well as the items listed. Photo is of leftovers; the portions are substantial.

Really on the fence about this place. Nothing bad to say. Typical pub food. I had a hamburger with fries. It was fine just nothing special. My friend likes their fries, I didn't especially care for them but again nothing to complain about. I will say the service was slow although we went on a Saturday night and the place was full. The prices were reasonable though. Nice patio to dine outdoors. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20

This is the second time I've been to Tavern 23 and the friendly hello from Zoe behind the bar made my wife and I feel welcome right away. We started of with an order of Buffalo Wings, of which were prepared to perfection. Our meals consisted of a perfectly cooked Bacon Cheddar Barbecue Burger and the Fisherman's Platter. It was nice to run into Jenn while we were there as well. Above all, you will really enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and their outdoor dining. Try this hidden gem in the city of Poughkeepsie !!

We stopped here on a trip to see family and the food , service, and atmosphere was all great. I ordered the lobster roll and my husband had the Tavern Burger and we were both completely satisfied with our food. We will return next time we are in PK.
