(

The rows of apple trees stretch through late summer haze while wood smoke from the pizza oven hangs over the lawn. On weekends, chatter from city daytrippers meets the steady hum of locals gathering under old trees, picking fruit or lining up for cider and donuts.

    🔥 Wood-fired pizza, cider donuts, and a farmstand with local produce
    🍺 Tasting flights: hard cider, kombucha, Hudson Valley wines
    👩‍🌾 Family-owned, easygoing atmosphere with fields to roam
    🎉 Regular events from chestnut festivals to light shows in winter

Important Information:

    âś” U-pick and farmstand open in season; pizza shed weekends only
    âś” Dogs welcome on-leash (bring cleanup bags)
    âś” Contact: (845) 687-2587 for crop status and seasonal hours

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

🍏 Apple Timing: Early September brings fresh Galas and Honeycrisps; peak pick-your-own for classics like Macoun and Empire hits mid-late September.

🍩 Donut Rush: Donuts sell out before 2:00 PM most weekends in October—grab yours early or ask the staff for the next batch time.

💧 Rocky ground: Wear boots or sturdy shoes, especially after rain—paths between trees and to the pumpkin patch can be uneven and muddy.

🎉 Events: Watch for October chestnut fests and December light shows—both fill fast, so check the website in advance for details and ticketing.

What folks are saying

Based on the 50 most recent Google reviews
Most visitors feel drawn in by the breadth of apple varieties and the laid-back farmstand, with special appreciation for cider donuts and hard cider flights. Locals mention the owner’s hospitality and the mix of community traditions and city energy. Pricing is higher than grocery stores but considered fair for the setting. Recent improvements to staff communication have helped, but some point out inconsistent crop loads late in the season and rocky access routes. Crowds spike on fall weekends, though weekday mornings keep an unhurried pace.
