Tavern 214

Top choice in Catskills


Tavern 214 has a great menu of classic American comfort-food-inspired entrees, but it's in the small plates that this lodge style tavern shines. Duck breast quesadillas, deconstructed poke bowls, and sausage and pepper sliders have all recently made appearances on the menu. Of course, because it's the Catskills, there is a preference for locally sourced produce and meat.
