(

Callicoon Brewing Company anchors the old Olympia Hotel, with wood bar, vintage tin ceilings, and the low hum of friends unwinding after work. Porch seats lean out over Main Street and the Delaware River, a spot for a cold pint and comfort food as evening settles in.

What to Expect:

    🍺 Selection of NY State craft beers and a few house brews
    🥩 Pub plates like brisket sandwiches, Reubens, cottage pie, and burgers
    🎶 Occasional live music and a lively, neighborly crowd
    🌅 Porch dining with hillside views and a breeze off the river
    🐕 Dog-friendly seating outside on the deck

Important Information:

    ✔ Walk-in seating; reservations for groups of 6+ recommended, especially weekends
    ✔ Wheelchair accessible inside, but note a small slope and steps up to the porch
    ✔ Contact at (845) 887-5500 for large parties or event bookings
    ✔ Most beer is NY State craft; rotating taps, plus cider and NA options; full bar on site

Haley's Pick 🍽️

You probably know her as @milehighandhungry. Each week, Haley shares the one place she’s obsessed with right now. From hidden gems to hot new openings, if she picks it, it’s worth the hype.

Haley's Review of Riot BBQ
Riot BBQ on South Delaware feels like a backyard cookout run by a Top Chef, because it is. Chef Manny Barella and pitmaster Patrick Klaiber have teamed up to blend Monterrey flavors with Texas-style smoke, and the results are seriously craveable.

The brisket steals the show: tender, deeply smoky, and finished with Barella’s bold spice rub. Get it solo or wrapped in buttery Raquelita tortillas. The pulled pork brings heat with ancho, guajillo, and morita chiles, and the al pastor ribs are sticky, sweet, and slightly charred in all the right ways.

Even the sides are insanely good! Think crunchy pepita-macha slaw and banana pudding served in a jar that tastes just like childhood (but better). Every bite feels intentional.

It’s barbecue with heart, history, and just the right amount of heat. Riot BBQ isn’t just a meal, it’s a moment worth lining up for.

Local Insights

🍔 Brisket Rules: The brisket sandwich wins regular raves—grab it early before the dinner rush.

🍻 Midweek Quiet: Mondays and Tuesdays are calmest for an unhurried pint and porch seat.

🎶 Music Surprises: Ask staff about upcoming music nights; shows aren't always posted, and the crowd rolls in quick when they happen.

🌅 Porch Perch: Sunset is when locals linger—outdoor tables fill fast for the river view and Main Street people-watching.

What folks are saying

Based on the 50 most recent Google reviews
Most folks praise the welcoming small-town character, fresh pints, and hearty sandwiches—especially the brisket and Reuben. Service often feels personal and warm, though busy nights can strain the staff a bit. A handful mention the beer list running light on house brews and lack of a printed menu, but local craft taps are always cold. Occasional noise on live-music nights, but porch seating offers a calmer view. Value is considered strong for the area, with portions that hit the spot after a day outdoors.
