My husband and I stopped here for breakfast on our way home from Woodstock NY and we were glad we did. We had the best breakfast of our whole trip here. I got the avocado skillet and my husband got the fried chicken and waffles, both were delicious! I'm not sure if the woman helping us was the owner or not but she was so pleasant and friendly. If you want a great breakfast and a warm, friendly spot this is it. read more

Eh. I wasn't really impressed by this spot. I'm not sure if it was that I had my hopes up for a heft sunday brunch. Anyways the staff was super friendly and accommodating! read more

Holy moly. What have I been eating all my life? I had the fried chicken here and it was amazing -- turned my life around. There will be no other fried chicken that comes close to this delicious masterpiece. Roost Chicken Fried Chicken-topped w/sausage gravy, w/home fries and greens... I thought the home fries would be just regular tasting but the sausage gravy moved around like a salsa dancer in my mouth. I wish that I could have even more sausage gravy but it definitely was enough for the portion!!! DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I NEED TO DRINK IT. The "greens" was also so fresh and I haven't had much salad that had a crunch to it. If all salads were like this I think I would eat more. The waitress we had was also very friendly and even offered to take our party's picture, knowing that we were "tourists" hah! The big camera probably didn't fool them. She was giving us tips from the locals on what to see and where to go. Beautiful lady with a beautiful soul! I could not believe they also sold stumptown coffee, which being from the good old nyc -- I APPRECIATED A LOT. The coffee really topped the sundae of a breakfast at this place. Please please please visit here. I wish I could LIVE here. read more

See all

This used to be my favorite place in town. I originally gave it a 5-star review. Unfortunately it has gone all the way downhill. The new menu is not good. The restaurant has become aggressively vegetarian unfriendly (there are non-veg ingredients in certain dishes that you wouldn't expect, so ask about everything) and now they have stopped selling their excellent salad dressings as well. The waitstaff as always are excellent. Too bad about the rest though. No real point in going back. read more

Loves this brunch spot!! Everything was so delicious. The chicken and waffles were divine as was the really good coffee they served. If you are in the area you must visit. read more

My go to when ever there is time. Never had a bad meal. I love the avocado skillet , But lately the sushi wrap and the salmon on the strawberry salad have been making it hard to choose. read more

We had the breakfast taco special and added avocado it was perfect! Great breakfast stope before or after hiking around one of the many cool spots here! The service was amazing and the food was free and very tasty! We also had the warm cider which was amazing! A perfect day trip breakfast spot! read more

The Roost was great for breakfast! We sat at the counter because they were very busy. The two servers were hustling. My breakfast enchilada was awesome! Came out in a hot cast iron skillet. My two sisters both raved about their breakfasts too. Totally recommend if you are in the area. read more

I don't understand why this gets such good ratings. Maybe I am spoiled by decent, fresh properly cooked food that I ay money for? Just OK. read more

The Roost is a cute place to stop by for breakfast. The service is really warm, attentive. We had stopped by while staying in Accord. But sadly, the food isn't as good as we'd hoped. Hubby had: Two eggs any style, with home fries, greens. This was standard. People rave about the home fries here but I thought they were just ok. There weren't a lot of them though- they did good portion control here. I had the fried chicken with salad greens - the greens were good. Lots of greens. The home fries were the same the above, was ok. The chicken itself was moist, juicy, and well fried but not well seasoned. I otherwise would have tried the popular avocado skillet. The Stumptown coffee was really good though. Prices were $10-15. read more

The food here was amazing and the service was great. We ordered the 1/2 lb. burger and the fried chicken. Everything was amazing. Also I forgot my purse at the restaurant and they were very friendly and mailed it to me. I can't believe how understanding they were about it and they were willing to go out of their way to help me. Thank you again for your generosity. read more

This spot for breakfast does not disappoint! We are not from the area and went based on a review we read and they were SO on it. I had the pastrami hash, excellent, fresh not at all greasy, very well done and served with a fresh salad, so clever. The staff was so friendly, even though they were busy they were so nice. read more

Very good! Pastrami Hash was awesome. My son loved the simple French toast. My wife had the Salmon best Aioli sauce she said.

Ordered take out during the quarantine period. Very solid food, all reasonably priced. Especially enjoyed the 3 piece fried chicken. Prefer the tater tots over the fries, hold up better as take out food. Would love to dine in for breakfast once quarantine is over. Give it a try. read more

Probably the best brunch food I've had in a very long time. Chicken and waffle was sublime, chicken enchilada skillet was insanely delicious.. WOW. No words! Service was excellent, we sat at the bar and were over the moon. read more

By far our favorite place to eat in the area. We've been coming here now at least once a month (on average) for the past couple years or so, (mostly for breakfast/lunch) and we have always had a great meal and great service. There's something about the salmon sandwich, I don't know what it is, but it is PERFECT. The BYO omelettes are also fantastic. And the salads. And the skillets. And the chicken & waffles. And the fries. And the stuffed French toast. I could go on and on. read more

We have been ordering takeout since March 19 at the start of the pandemic. Try their fried chicken or just about any of their salads. Haven't done brunch yet. Super friendly and excellent pandemic protocols. read more

Very cute place! This is a smaller establishment than it looks on the web, but still very clean and welcoming. Breakfast seems to be their thing, so we went for brunch. We had the quiche of the day, the zucchini hash, and chicken & waffle. The quiche was awesome - one of the best I've ever had. Order the quiche! The zucchini hash was so fresh and light - a perfect dish for anyone that eats clean or likes to keep it on the lighter side. The only downside is I believe most people would still be hungry if just ordering this dish, so be advised. Finally, the chicken and waffle was great! Had a small issue with it at first but the servers took care of it immediately and we were able to enjoy every bite of all of our food! Thank you so much. Also has great hot coffee and they do offer mimosas. Sadly, no bloody marys. PLEASE ADD THIS! Can't wait to come back. read more

Fantastic breakfasts, lunches and dinners at reasonable prices. Great service and nice, varied menu. Absolutely worth checking out if you're driving through Stone Ridge. Easy parking, super cool AC even on a sweltering day. My fav new place around Stone Ridge/Accord. read more

We chose to eat here when our dinner plans changed. It was such a great find. The place is small and modest, but inviting and bright. Its a breakfast/lunch nook type place that happens to stay open for dinner- thats the vibe. And the specials on the board were very exciting. My sister got the little lamb chops, my other sister and friend each got the rib eye dinner, and I did the surf and turf special- filet mignon and scallops served with fries and steamed broccoli. All the meals had similar sides and they complimented the mains well. Our meals were delicious. I have no complaints about my food. The portion was appropriate, the filet was cooked perfectly and the scallops were sweet and tender and nicely seared. And all for $26!! And it was as good as an expensive steakhouse no joke. I take my meat and seafood seriously. I knew I was taking a risk and it paid off. For dessert we split the pear crisp with gelato and the bread pudding. Both were very good and perfect finish to our filling and savory meals. Our waitress was very attentive and pleasant. I live an hour away, but I would not mind coming back up to have another meal here:) read more

You know you've found a great restaurant when your first bite makes you say "Wow." Follow-up forkfuls of the mushroom hash (onions, potatoes, cremini mushrooms, spinach topped with two over medium eggs and served with side greens) were no less impressive. Outstanding fare here. We split an order of baked oatmeal and found it to be just fantastic. She had stuffed french toast which were delightful. Good coffee, pleasant, professional and efficient service topped off the experience. The best breakfast I've had in many years. If I didn't live 90 minutes away (was in town to get a Christmas tree at Bell's) I'd be there every weekend. read more

Stopped in here on the recommendation of my nephew when my favorite lical place was too packed. Eight of us were seated quickly by a very nice hostess / manager and it was easy to see why this is a local favorite...very nice place inside, though small, and lots of outside seating. Menu isn't too large, which I like - I'd rather see you do a small menu very well than half-assing a huge menu...and they offer both breakfast and lunch- and we took advantage of the options. We ordered chicken and waffles, chocolate chip pancakes, a Corned Beef melt, grilled salmon sandwiches, biscuits and sausage gravy, avocado egg skillet and an egg sandwich. Let's see if this tells you how we liked the food, the only thing left on a plate was half the egg sandwich...and that was taken to go o ky because my nephew's girlfriend wasn't super hungry. First time my son had chicken and waffles and he HAMMERED them - tried the chicken and it was better than the chicken i had in a soul food restaurant last week (GREAT JOB!!). My corned beef melt was served with a side salad and also came with a horseradish and apple mayo (instead of a traditional russian) and it was a tasty switch. Corned beef was excellent. Seriously, it all looked and tasted great! Oooh, I almost forgot...the chicken corn chowder - was amazing! The only issues were because they were so busy i think (there was a lot going on locally so they probably just didn't expect the huge turnout. The lunch I really wanted wad their burger, but they had run out of their burgers and also had no carmalized onions (which I didn't understand since they must have a grill and they had raw onions...they could have made more. Service was a little slow (again, they were oacked so I'm not gonna kill thrm on it as my nephew says it's not like that normally), but by the time I got my meal everyone else was half done with theirs... A nice pisitive for a place like this is that they have a liquor license so they serve beer and wine...which was a nice add-on for a hot day. Overall if I could give half stars I'd probably say 3.5, but the food and ambiance and our waitress were all way too good to give 3...so 4 it is. I love small local places like this that have their own flair and personality. Try The Roost, you'll enjoy it... read more

My first time here and the food is definetly worth the drive and wait. Place is very clean, staff was very friendly, professional and prompt. I wish I lived closer and could eat here more often. The steak and eggs and chicken and waffles are a must to have. Awesome place guys!!!! read more

IT IS WHAT YOU DON'T EXPECT THAT MAKES THE ROOST IN STONE RIDGE SO GREAT When you go to a breakfast/lunch joint you have certain expectations: good coffee, fair prices, a satisfying selection of food ranging from healthy to comfort food. The Roost meets all of these expectations: 1) The rich and "hairbending" Stumptown Coffee scratches the morning coffee itch 2) The prices are beyond fair, especially compared to the local alternatives. 3) Healthy options include the perfect house-made granola yogurt parfait, the pleasing chickpea burger, or the surprisingly great baby kale salad with goat cheese and chia seed. While the comfort foods include the signature chicken fried chicken (guilty pleasure?), a daily stuffed French Toast or the pulled pork sandwich, to name a few. But it is the things that you DON'T expect that make The Roost stand out high and above any of the other local options. It is the unexpected fennel flavor in the house-made sausage; the Boylan's soda on tap; the option of a ¼ or 1/2 pound burger; the corn beef hash made with REAL meat (nothing from a can here). It is the small touches like pickled veggies with the pork quesadilla, or the horseradish apple mayo on the Corned Beef Melt, or the gremolata fries, that stand out in a big way on each and every plate. For a local food lover who sometimes wants special and sometimes wants simple, THE ROOST hits the mark each and every time read more

Stopped in for a late lunch with my daughter. Beautiful day so we sat on the porch and we both had a spectacular meal with excellent service. I had a strip steak with brussles . . . Oh emmm gee . . . wonderful flavor, perfectly grilled. My daughter had chicken and waffles for the first time ever . . . she was wondering where they had been all her life. :) read more

The Roost, while sporting a nice overall Yelp rating, lived up to the hype. Assuming they have hype in the Hudson Valley. The staff here was extremely friendly from the beginning. Getting a high chair for our young baby, chatting with us and getting ice cold water and hot coffee (Stumptsown, which if you haven't had it, is stellar coffee). The menu here is small, but you can tell each dish was made with care. Veggie burgers are often throw aways and taste like they defrosted a patty in back. Not here. The chickpea burger was great as were the thin fries and brioche bun. The pork sandwich was also great with the zucchini pickles. We also ordered a waffle for the baby, but who am I kidding, I just wanted it for myself (and she doesn't eat much). It too was really good. They had some nice specials, two beers on tap and a ton of housemade dessert. We have a personal strawberry pie on the counter for later. I think there is no doubt I'll drop in for breakfast before I head out of town. read more

I recently dined at the Roost in Stone Ridge, NY. The Roost is family owned and serves as a hub of local fellowship and gossip. The food is simple yet impeccable - locally sourced when possible, fresh, and creative yet not over-the-top. My last visit to the Roost reminded me of why I love it. The servers are all personable and humorous but remain professional and attentive. My water and coffee came out promptly and my questions about the menu were answered with enthusiasm. I ordered the special - a fried chicken wrap with french fries. It came out piping hot (just the way I like it), with the modifications I asked for perfectly executed. Both the service and the food went above and beyond my expectations. I greatly enjoy the Roost and its employees. I will be back very soon. p.s. They serve fantastic Stumptown coffee! It's great hot and iced. read more

Such a great vibe and real, friendly service too! Fantastic breakfast options, great quality food, fast when you need them to be but never a rush, and a very well maintained spot open 7 days a week. Can't wait to try them for dinner next. read more

Gluten free and lactose friendly. Gluten free bread choice and soy milk available. Good food. It's not your normal diner. They serve many option that you would not make at home. More then eggs, toast, pancakes... They have home made(not canned) corn beef hash. Fresh veggi dishes. Biscuits and Gravy. Always clean. read more

This place is cute. I loved my waitress. Seriously. Super friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The food was good. What more do you need in a breakfast joint Stopped back in today and ordered byo wrap. I asked for a little jalepeno, and it came loaded with it, making it inedible. When brought to waiters attention, he took 2% off the bill. Um. Thanks. Typically, a replacement or full refund would be offered. Left a bad taste in my mouth. No pun intended. read more

This is our go to restaurant with guests or when we don't feel like cooking. We came here often when we're renovating our kitchen and have been going back ever since. I have never been disappointed with the food or service. Just a great place and now they serve dinner! It keeps getting better and better read more

Honestly one of the best breakfast places I've visited. I'm a huge omelette and home fries fan (snob maybe?) and it was all so delicious!!! Definitely a great spot to stop for breakfast!! read more

Stopped for lunch after a long morning on 87, it's a 20min trip "out of the way" but well worth it for incredibly fresh food (the turkey club is fantastic) and a peaceful place to spend an hour. Will definitely be back! read more

So happy to finally get to eat at The Roost. The place is so comfortable and friendly. I really liked the light blue walls, the big blackboard and the beautiful artwork hanging throughout the restaurant. The service was efficient and the food was excellent. I had the stuffed French Toast with Nutella--amazingly fluffy and perfect! (I could only eat half though). My husband enjoyed the Avocado Skillet with spinach (though the menu said kale), home fries and two over easy eggs. We both really liked the Stumptown Coffee! Great value for the money and friendly atmosphere -- we will return. read more

We stopped in for lunch while visiting our daughters and can't wait to go back. Everything was delicious and very generous portions. I had the BLAT and tried very hard to not eat the bread (low/no carb diet) but I couldn't resist! The best sourdough I've had since San Francisco. I ordered a side salad with the Green Goddess dressing and it was sheer perfection. The girls ordered the Avocado Skillet and Grilled Cheese and loved every bite. One thing you MUST order are the homemade French fries. OMG, were they to die for! We highly recommend the Roost. Great service and fabulous food! read more

I met my friends here on a Saturday about 1... amazing food ! One of the specials was steak and eggs. A rib eye with cheddar taters and two eggs with this amazing sauce ... under $10!! Idk it may have been a fluke but it was one of the best damn rib eyes I've ever had !!! My friends had chicken and waffles... and soup and Sammie!! We were all very pleased !! read more

This place was a great find. The food was delicious and came out very quickly. The servers were very friendly and attentive. Fries were amazing! The homemade hot sauce was great, too. I wish we lived closer so we could come back more often. read more

This is my favorite pre-hike breakfast spot. They have hands down the best pancakes I've ever had. The breakfast is unbelievable and the specials they have never disappoint. I had a corn fritter eggs Benedict and I dont think I'll ever forget it. Please put it on the menu! The service is always great. The servers always have a smile on their face and are really nice. One of my favorite spots of all time. read more

Just came to the Roost for a beer. I didn't plan on eating dinner, but the chef TJ came out for a chat and told me he had some nice little neck clams. He sold me on a dish of clams over rice in a light scallion garlic and oil sauce. It was fantastic. The dish wasn't even on the menu. This guy is TALENTED. I highly recommend The Roost. read more
