      Great Tavern! The staff accommodated our group of 31 last min on a Saturday night. The food came out quick and was very good. I had the Delaware Burger. All the burgers looked great. Nice games on shelves kept all the kids occupied. Everyone left happy.

      This is such a classic timeless tavern. From the photos of Chip Forelli to Dawn serving us, my parents and I had an incredible time here. The vibes are immaculate, especially with the live band. The food is great and just right for a tavern like this. Brewster even came out to give us his rapid fire hot sauce (ask for it if you see him). Such a kind staff and warm cozy bar.

      Great bar food, tasty cocktails and the best live music every weekend.

      Check out the open mic every Sunday, if you are a musician or music lover. Very friendly owners , staff and customers!

      This place is fun and casual and the service is great. Its an old school tavern and has many interesting decorations. Also has a shelf with a bunch of board games to play. We had burgers and beers. The marsala burger on a pretzel bun with sweet potato fries was yum! Not in the mood for a burger try the burrito, also yum. They had live music in the yard which was very entertaining . Definetly a great place to stop for a quick bite. The servers were so cheerful and attentive as well .

      The friendliest, most welcoming tavern I have ever walked into. The bartender introduced me to everyone at the bar. Monday menu is very limited to apps only. Except for the dinner special. Greek moussaka. What a treat! Everyone in the bar had the special, all at the same time. It was like having dinner with friends.

      We had the best time at Rafters! Great food and drinks, super-friendly service and awesome atmosphere. Charming building & decor. The live music was the icing on the cake...so good. The wings and burgers were fantastic, as was the drink selection. We fell in love with Callicoon and Rafters Tavern was a large part of that. Can't wait to return and bring friends & family!

      What a scene. Not only did they have incredible, live, original music being performed all weekend long, not only do they have an amazing staff, but the owners are as sweet as a cool raft ride down the Delaware River! We love this place AND, they have a boarding house styled Air BNB above the tavern! We had a few cocktails and slept over night in room 5! Had a hot shower in the morning, drank a cup of coffee whilst we strolled along the river! Wow! Thank you @Rafters Tavern in Callicoon, NY! We will be back often!

      We are so grateful fir the place!

      Was recommended their from a waiter in Narrowsburg NY.
      EXCELLENT burgers. Best We had in a long time. Fries were thin fresh cut and sweet potato were piping hot and crispy. Waitress Veronica was very nice. Wings were very good but charged us for 2 orders of 6 when we asked if we can have two flavors for the 12 count order. We didn't question it. Music was supposed to be going on until 4:30p but there wasn't any music happening at 4:15p. Definitely a place to try after stopping by a few doors down to taste some honey infused gin and vodka.
