As of May 2021, they are only doing takeout orders. You have to call-in your order by 6:30 pm. I ordered the garlic Parmesan chicken wings. I found the breading a little too thick - I was expecting lighter since it was rice flour. BF tried the friend chicken and said it was fine. I had the biscuit and that the delicious. read more

I recently enjoyed an anniversary dinner at The Heron in Narrowsburg NY. We sat on an outdoor patio overlooking the river. Service was quite attentive and made excellent food and drinks recommendations. I decided to go with their fried chicken which was locally sourced and fresh. We split oysters which were on special, coming from New England area were snobbish in freshness. They were amazing. Will definitely stop in again next time we're in town for a long weekend, maybe twice as they seem to have a solid breakfast menu as well. read more

Highly recommended! From their delicious food, different menu options, and the family feel from their staff, this place is a diamond in the rough! read more

Good food. Nice location. Very good service. Worth the visit to this cute town. We will be back. read more

The food and service is fantastic! The atmosphere is great. I highly recommend The Heron. You don't want to miss eating here, so make sure you call to make a reservation! read more

Welcome to Narrowburg's social central in Sullivan County, New York on the Upper Delaware across from neighboring PA. We have fined here several times since opening and enjoy the rustic vibe and charming menu. Brunch is particularly enjoyable and the drinks list fairly good for the area. Why not combine Sunday brunch with a stroll along Main Street and eagle watching at the deck which has a handy telescope... read more

After stopping on the sidewalk and seeing the menu for The Heron, I called that evening for a take out order of Fried Chicken. Growing up in Virginia, I Know southern fried chicken and I have to applaud The Heron because they hit the mark. It took a few minutes to find the online menu, because you have to first hit the online ordering link - not the word "Food." Do not fear, you aren't locked into ordering if you just want to see the menu. The chicken is locally sourced and made buttermilk style which makes the meat out of this world tender and juicy; AND, you get three good size pieces, a leg, wing, and breast. The coating is extra crunchy - yum! A few spicy carrots are also included along with a biscuit with honey butter and blueberry jam. Of course, I had to order an extra biscuit because I can't eat just one. Thanks for being there The Heron. For me, you hit a home run! read more

::Opens at 5. We walk in at 5. 10 open tables:: Them- "We are really busy. Hold on" ::10 minutes later:: Them- "Would you be willing to sit at the bar?" Us- sure Them- drinks and appetizers only. Us- you can't order an entree at the bar? Them- no Us- but you can still bring us appetizer food? Then- ...yes Us- Nevermind. Quickest review I made. Make that one make sense. So you have room for us at the bar, but can't serve all the food? Ok. Ludicrous. read more

Quite honestly, the best fried chicken I've had in awhile. A little pretext: I am a chef that has worked at the Michelin level in NYC who is also from the south. Trust me, the chicken is legit. I could say the same about the biscuit. Obviously a deft hand there. Unfortunately, I can't say the same about the escabeche...it was over cooked. Good flavor... wrong method (salt the veg for thirty, rinse, pour over boiling brine w/o cooking for crispy pickled veg). That being said, it is still a VASTLY superior condiment than the artsy-mayo-whatever crutch most fried bird cooks lean on. The veggie burger is the best I've had since Brooks Headley's superiority burger. Good texture, well seasoned, properly dressed (loved the knife work on the slaw. Julienned pickle? Feel the love!). The bun was well selected too. If Chef bakes them in house, hats off. I hope one day, everyone will be able to respect how difficult it is to get bread just right. Here, they shine... thus the stars. Also, and this is personal...I love fernet and Coke. Having that as a cocktail option really sealed it for me. Just to reiterate...5 stars. Congrats to the Heron team... you should be proud. read more

Quaint dinner spot not to be missed when in the area, but be sure to have reservations. Even ask for late seating so you are not rushed out. Enjoy the Brussels sprouts, truffle fries, and pimento cheese for appetizers. The salmon, fried chicken and porkchetta were all delicious. Many bites were shared among these dining guests. read more

Fried chicken and biscuits can't be beat. Great cocktails and excellent service as well.

We came to Narrowsburg to spend a relaxing Sunday, and decided to try The Heron, based on Yelp reviews. Believe me when I tell you, this place is incredible. The Chicken Box (fried chicken, biscuit, and jalapeno carrots) was one of the best things I've ever tasted (high praise, since I'm 55 years old). I honestly did not want to finish it, because then it would be gone. The chef obviously knows his stuff; even the breast meat melted in your mouth! And the biscuit and butter? To die for. The mac and cheese was nothing short of perfection. And Carissa, who took out order and made amazing cocktails, was incredible. Five stars are not enough, but it's the best I can give. read more

The Heron looks like and feels like a small town pub but their breakfast offering looks and tastes like something you'd find at a high end breakfast bistro. I had the crispy eggs and their version of a Bloody Mary. Both were Awesome. This one is at the top of our list of breakfast locations.. read more

I was a semi-regular here a few years ago, about 5-6 times a year, weekday afternoons. But it got weird and I stopped going. The food was always good, and the owner was initially quite nice. Then one day I went and was told by the host that my preferred window table was not being used that day. OK although most tables were open. Then other guests, known to the host showed up and were seated there. When I asked for the WiFi password the same young man told me it was only for staff. That was never the policy prior. Worse I saw him give it to guests he seated at the table I had requested. I was told a particular menu item was unavailable, yet heard another guest order it and it was served to them. Finally I was asked if I wanted my coffee topped off, then charged $4.50 for another cup. So dishonesty and poor treatment turned me away. Too bad. I'll pass. read more

Drove about 45 minutes out of the way to have dinner here. Narrowsburg has become a staple day trip on visits to my family's lake house, largely because of this restaurant. Whether you're seated outdoors or indoors, you win. Great view of the Delaware River or the upscale rustic interior. The lovely atmosphere and great service make it an all around enjoyable experience. As far as the food goes, I'd recommend going with the classics. They're fantastic. The only meal that didn't 100% win me over was one of the vegetarian grain dishes - just a little too much going on. read more

Food, atmosphere, and service were all amazing! Highly recommend if you're in the area, but try to make a reservation as they fill up quick!

After a long miserable 2-flat-tires day of travel to Narrowsburg, we were thrilled to find that The Heron was open and just 2 days into post-pandemic indoor dining. Two seats at the bar, great cocktails, silly xmas decorations and a friendly staff...and our cares melted away. A huge kale salad, an extra delicious chopped salad, a perfectly cooked steak and the last cheeseburger in the place made our Saturday Night Special, as Skynyrd used to sing. Last time we were here was 10 years ago. It's just a few days later and I could eat that entire meal over again. Highly recommended. read more

First time in Narrowsburg, first time eating lunch in this establishment. There's only outdoor seating at this time, with limited food service. You order at the register and the food is brought out to the table, in to go packaging. We shared a beet salad and a veggie burger. Delicious and very fresh! Too bad they were closed the days after we were there. Would have loved to return. read more

I came here a few years ago and loved it. The restaurant is tucked away on Main Street and is super cute, warm and inviting. The inside is pretty small with not a lot of tables, so would consider making a reservation here especially on a weekend or holiday. The food as I recall was fantastic and the service great! I would absolutely go back again the next time I'm in the area. read more

Outstanding. I can't believe that I have to come to Narrowsburg to get a 5 star meal. Best fried chicken and Biscuit in the U.S. and i've eaten this cuisine all over the south. I'm flummoxed and almost angry at how amazing the food is. Words can't express the quality and attention to detail here. You just have to experience it and realize your bar has just moved to the top. read more

Truly one of the best restaurants in upstate NY. We ate at several high rated establishments and the Heron was the best of the bunch that included Old Foundation, Henning's Local, and the Junction. While staples include Buttermilk Fried Chicken (excellent), A Burger, Mac N Cheese (excellent), you can tell the chef also wants to bring unusual dishes to the area, such as a Korean Stew that we ate that blew our minds (well ... tastebuds). Food aside, the decor is quite appealing ... the service was great, and the location in Narrowsburg equally as appealing. Do not miss this spot!!! Rivals great restaurants in NYC. read more

A beautiful, hidden treasure for all who enjoy a good meal and a good drink surrounded by stylish yet comfortable decor. Owner is completely aware of the trendy atmosphere she's created that accompanies artistic grub. Comfort food with a twist and that is so hard to find in this area. Our bus boy was so incredibly cute and friendly that we chatted with him to discover that he is a local farm boy who supplies the eggs! Gotta love the real support for the community. I've been around Narrowsburg since I was born. The Chatterbox was my childhood with their Mickey Mouse pancakes. Now that this place has flipped to The Heron with their tastey beer selection, it couldn't have come at a better time than in my mid-twenties. Traveling to Narrowsburg just got better. read more

This brunch was like no other! A grapefruit intense screwdriver started the experience at the funky and relaxed restaurant. Not always you get this combination of artisan food, groovy setting and excellent service. A grilled cheese has NEVER been so wonderful- likely the fried egg, arugula and slab of sous vide slab of bacon. My husband adored his corn beef hash - Sadly we don't frequent Narrowsburg often but now we know where to dine! read more

The. Best. Chicken. Sandwich. I've. Ever. Had. I never leave reviews but this sandwich changed my mind. Super crispy. Extra breaded. Moist Chicken. Great sauce. Amazing flavor. Just get it. read more

I was in this region for July 4th weekend and had the pleasure of eating the BEST MAC AND CHEESE that I have ever had. No, seriously, are you listening? The BEST. It is baked with bread crumbs on top and the cheese is steaming, perfectly blended and the caramelized onions provide the best sweet kick. The avocado toast was tasty and so were the jalapeno grits, they had a real kick. BUT THE BAKED MAC AND CHEESE is to.die.for. (Spouse had the fried chicken and loved it) When we come back in the Fall to see the leaves, I'll be back for sure. ---------------------------------- (We just went back in the Fall as I said we would above). The Bloody Heron is a *must* try. One of the best bloody drinks I have ever had. It has the ideal spice/tomato/horseradish ratio. We also added the Crispy Eggs and Grits to the mix. VERY Good. I can now confidently state that if you are vegetarian (or even pescatarian), you can't go wrong with: 1) Mac and Cheese 2) Crispy Eggs and Grits 3) Bloody Heron read more

I think we dined here a few years earlier when it was under different management/name/style? Or am I confused? Nonetheless, a fine/sweet/cute little spot for dinner in Narrowsburg. A good menu with a slight southern bent (they needed to work on their biscuits), OK wine list, comfortable and casual decor, and a nice staff. OK. I may be some sort of wine dork, but my memory of the evening was the fact that the waitstaff all use a 'Rabbit' wine opener. That's crazy small town funny. read more

Uhmmm. AMAZING. We came here because the reviews and I wish we lived closer so we can come back. We started with oysters and the glazed brussel sprouts as our appetizers and for dinner we had the fried chicken and caramelized onion mac & cheese. Incredible incredible. I highly recommend any of those dishes. The cocktail called the Grapefruit Nanni was made with fresh squeezed grapefruit, definitely order that. read more

Unfortunately, we have to concur with some of the other negative reviews on two points. First the service (or at least our waitress) was strangely brusque and had an odd condescending quality about her. Secondly they are not just emphatically unwillingly to do substitutions but are totally unaccommodating even for minor requests related to food allergies. The food quality was fine in a straight-ahead gastropub sort of way but the service experience was so poor it clouded everything else. Don't recommend--particularly if you have food sensitivities. We won't be back. read more

We went as a group of 8 last Friday night . We arrived before our reservation and had drinks on their outside deck which was very nice. When we were seated, 3 in our group were ordering the chicken dishes off the menu. We were told that they were out of chicken. (7p.m. Friday) Then 3 of us were going to order the leg of lamb special. We were told there was only enough for 1 order. I did get that and it was very good. 3 then ordered the ribs and the others went with the Mac n cheese. When our entrees were served we told our waitress that we were missing 2 orders of ribs. She simply stated they only had enough for one order. To top it off after 2 of our guest had 3 Amstel Lites they were told that they ran out of Amstel Lt. I don't understand how a restaurant can run out of so many items a couple hours after they open. 2 in our group never got a entree because the waitress never told them till last minute that they ran out of ribsOur waitress appeared like we were annoying her with her attitude. The waitress that served us on the outside deck was great. We looked forward to having dinner here but we won't be back. read more

Owner/staff super rude and pretentious. The Heron was one of the places that we wanted to definitely check out on our trip to Narrowsburg, however we never got the chance and will probably never go in the future! The Heron is only open Thursday to Sunday, and I was told to get reservations. So my BF and I were out walking near the restaurant on Wednesday and saw people in the Heron... thought I could just politely pop in and inquire about a reservation since my request over email and message never got a response. Also I knew they had outdoor seating and wanted to know if dogs were allowed since we had our pups with us. Anyhoo, I knocked and entered saying "excuse me but could I ask a quick question", the woman looked up and gave me the nastiest look like WTF why are you bothering me. I said "sorry I know the restaurant is closed today but I wanted to make a reservation and ask if dogs were allowed in the outdoor area." In a very rude and annoyed manner she said - we have to allow service animals (implying your's probably aren't so buzz off)! Well needless to say, I just closed the door behind me and walked away, not bothering to make a reservation or stopped by before we left town. I know people talk highly of the food at the Heron BUT no meal is worth poor customer service!! And BTW, my pups are service dogs. read more

AMAZING!!!! Had dinner last night at the Heron. Our meals were so delicious! our party ordered...duck, chili, Mac n cheese with truffle mushrooms, vegan burger and grain bowl! incredible! fun and super professional and friendly staff. we had a great time! Look forward to our return! read more

We went for brunch at The Heron twice -- once because of a story we saw in a local magazine, the second because of the meal we had the first time. The Heron is a stellar example of the farm-to-table movement. The pig's trotter soup is a standout starter, with the chicken soup close behind. Between the two of us we had the crispy eggs with cheese grits, the corned-beef hash, the buttermilk fried chicken and the jalapeno cheddar. All were first class. Friday at 1:30 it was half full; Saturday at 1pm we got the last table for two and the bar had two empty seats. It's a popular place, but does take reservations. Highly recommended, and the scenic drive on the way (from whatever direction) is outstanding. read more

Loved the homemade corned beef hash . . . I kinda wanted poached eggs because I am not really a sunny-side-up kinda guy, but they do not do poached eggs so, oh well, when in Narrowsburg . . . the sunny-side-ups were excellent anyway . . . the OJ is pretty awesome . . . I ordered small but then longed for the large . . . servers were polite and attentive, but not hovering . . . view out the back is awesome . . . 5 stars . . .

I ate here last year and, horror of horrors, forgot to review! I didn't get anything fancy, just eggs and toast and mixed greens. It was all good, but the dressing on the mixed greens was great. I have no idea what it was, but if they bottled it, I'd buy it. Would love to go back, hope up soon. read more

Super Expensive for what they give you. Wives corded 2 double vodka and cranberry's (4drinks) and they charged $96 for them. Total ripoff. Ran out if Broiled Chix, wife couldn't add chix to a salad anyway because they are very un-accommodating and don't allow substitutions. Place is the worst. Go somewhere else for dinner. read more
