The Kaatskeller

Arriving at "K" was a delightful experience. We took a drive from southern Sullivan County to find a place with a cool vibe on a Sunday. We found just that. Arriving at Kaatskeller we were greeted at the front, whisked upstairs, greeted and seated nestled near the bar. Kaitlyn arrived at our table and took our drink orders. Appetizers we ordered were: WOOD-FIRED FLAT BREAD & BUTTER 7 Served with local farm butter & SKILLET MEATBALLS 18 Hand rolled, local grass-finished beef. Slowly stewed tomato. Basil, aged balsamic, ricotta The drinks we enjoyed were: PISTACHIO GOLDRUSII 17 Pistachio-infused bourbon, Catskill Provisions raw honey, lemon, crushed pistachio rim & PAID VACATION 17 Tequila Blanco, hickory smoked pineapple, habanero bitters, muddled cucumber, lime The drinks were served promptly and the delicious appetizers followed minutes thereafter. We no sooner enjoyed our appetizers when the pie ordered, ___________ WILD ONE 25 Wild Boar pepperoni, smoked mozzarella, onion, spicy Harissa spiked San Marzano tomato. Smoked sea salt. Pepper infused honey ___________ arrived just as quickly. The pepper infused honey topped the pizza when drizzled really pulls the notes together well. On the pie tin, there were no survivors. Absolutely delish. Each one of the dishes complimented the other. The tastes blended together and were truly satisfying. Our pictures almost did justice to how savory the meal truly was. Service was great. The food was tasty. We will definitely return to this establishment.

The atmosphere of this place is different and inviting. Outdoor sitting with bench like tables surrounded by trees that offer a nice shade in hot summer days. The staff was attentive and a pitcher with cold water arrived as soon as we sat down. WIFI password provided. I ordered the trout which came whole with head and tail, just how I like it. The presto was a bit overwhelming and didn’t offer much flavor to the fish. Overall it was good. We also had a pizza that was very tasty and didn’t lack in ingredients. The Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet were good but pricey at $15. With two drinks each, the tab was high. If drinks were a tad cheaper I would give it a 5 star.

As seasoned reviewers, my boyfriend and I recommend this Catskills pizza spot, giving it a commendable 8.2. The atmosphere, both indoors and outdoors, was superb. The staff was friendly, enhancing the overall experience. Our culinary journey included a wood-fired roasted trout appetizer, which, unfortunately, scored a 5 due to its mushiness and an incompatible onion-rice mix. As a non-garlic eater, the pesto was overwhelmingly garlicky. The Waterfowl folly Rueben sauerkraut pizza earned an 8 for its well-structured dough, while the Hawaii Five-Oh disappointed with an excessive amount of cheese and pineapple, resulting in a rating of 3. The drinks, particularly the "Lost in the Woods" cocktail and the draft beer, received an 8 and were truly delightful. The arugula salad stood out with a stellar rating of 9.

Really cool place with nice outdoor seating and communal tables. We had yummy vegan pizzas! The staff were happy and helpful! February 2024 update : still great vegan food and service. Small two story building for indoor eating.

Waited for the pizza and realized it was sitting on the shelf for 15 min (as they didn’t get to making our salad) So our lukewarm pizza also did not taste great - the one (Greek style) was very salty, the other one (Hawaii style) had tons of raw jalapenos on it (soo spicy) Their outside seating seems nice but their operational inefficiencies make things bad I would stay away from that t
