I heard about this place from a city friend, he said it was OK but they are cash only, which is fine with me. Â I took the family there for the first time a few weeks ago and everyone, even my finicky son, loved it! Â Its a great atmosphere, antlers and mounted fish on the walls, my kind of place! Â
The place fills up quick around dinner time and appears to have a happy, loyal following of customers. Â The food was great, the people nice and we decided it will be a do-over dinner spot. Â
Its not easy to find a decent eatery up there, and this place is far better than decent.
I have been coming to this Cabin for the past twenty years through its various incarnations (Conroy's, Scullion's) and I think this one is the best yet.
This is a real road side tavern in the hills above Callicoon Center, NY.
It had a shaky start a few years ago when it was bought from Mr Scullion (who ran a great place himself) Â but with the a new cook and a new attitude it is a delight to eat supper there again.
I usually meet friends there at about 6:45pm on Saturday nights. I am a New York City weekender and I would rather have toast and oatmeal than eat bad restaurant food and this place has food as good as you would want it. The other restaurants in the this region are either bad, pretentious or both.
The Cabin is a warm and friendly place usually full of people drinking at the bar and eating at the tables scattered around the wood stove. I have never seen unhappy people there. It is kind of like a rural, cow country "Cheers".
The young owner is solicitous in the good sense and the wait staff (one woman) is always real friendly, if sometimes overworked.
This is cow country so the beef is the thing. The steaks and burgers are great. The fried chicken is really good. Good soups and the house salad is very good. Usually everything on the menu is good. Â
Yuengling on tap with a great burger, fries and a good salad.
Ah, Heaven.
I love this place and eat here often and I am never really disappointed (most restaurants disappoint me).
