    We went for the Hudson Valley wine pairing dinner and it was delicious. It’s great to see the restaurant trying new things to mix up their offerings and love the fact that they have a different menu each day and look forward to trying their new Sunday afternoon serving. Keep up your great creativity!

    Always enjoy a meal at Finnbar. The team is warm and welcoming, the atmosphere is festive yet laid back and the food solid. Caesar salad was excellent. Falafel burger was good although could use a bit more zip. Wine selection wonderful. Always enjoy trying what is new and on the rotation.

    Gem of a find nestled in picturesque French Town. We thoroughly enjoyed our celebratory dinner at Finnbar. The menu was creative from small bites to main courses to sauces and condiments served on the side. Freshest of ingredients and lots of love have gone into making every item on the menu. The result is that every bite of every item is absolutely delish ! the service and presentation complemented the food beautifully elevating our dining experience. Plenty of options for vegetarians and GF diners. One of the desserts was on the house as we celebrated a birthday- what a sweet gesture!! The drinks are top notch as well. And oh.. the menu changes everyday based on what fresh ingredients are available AND most of the proceeds benefit an amazing art driven cause! So, Finnbar was a very fulfilling, immensely satisfying and absolutely memorable experience! LOVED it!
