Come Hang Out Upstate

Dens: When it's nice out and the brick oven is churning out pizzas, this is one of the best spots around to spend an afternoon.

Dens: Dig this spot. Some of the beers are pretty strong, so if you feel like you're getting cranked, double down a pretzel sandwich.

Dens: Some of the best greek gyros I've ever had. Great spot for lunch and people watching. Get the Athena for sure (gyro w/ greek salad), and the Greek iced-coffee/frappe thing if you're feeling crazy.

Dens: Best tacos on Kingston (and great spot to drink a sidewalk beer on summer wkds). Never snooze on the specials menu, always get the street corn, and watch out because the margaritas are strong.

Dens: Exceptional cocktails, but if you're here on a weekend, expect to wait 20-30 minutes for one. Seriously, set your stopwatch.

Dens: One of the best spots to eat in Kingston IMHO. The buffalo cauliflower will blow your mind. Fried oysters are a close 2nd. Don't miss the back deck (took me 2x here to notice it!)

Dens: Don't snooze on the brunch time Bloody Mary menu. The Bloody Maria is my fav so far. Report back if you dare try the cilantro one.

Dens: No stop to Kingston is complete without dropping $5 on a bag of candy. We hit this place at least 1x/weekend

Dens: Ask about their "wine or the month" clubs. (we subscribe to the "dirt" one)

Dens: Amazing spot for lunch. I always go for the lamb in the pita + fries + Greek cherry soda. DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT TRYING THE GREEK YOGURT! (the salted caramel is A+++)

Dens: Home of @StockadeFC -- Kingston's semi-pro soccer team that competes in D4/NPSL. Swing by and catch a match! ⚽

Dens: Best breakfast we've found within 20mi of anywhere. The Bloody Marys are top notch and the skillets are epic. ProTip: start with the breakfast tacos as an appetizer!

Dens: Rumor has it that the owner is from Israel and the falafel and hummus are amazing.

Dens: This spot is insanely good. Don't order anything till you give Daily Specials a look. The hash browns (french fries with garlic and olive oil!) will blow your mind. Staff raves about the corned beef.

Dens: Yes, the 500 beers are impressive, but the real story is the burger which is fantastic. Worth driving 30 min for, esp if you are starving. (kicking myself for not taking a photo of said burger, btw)
