Great little place for tapas and fresh empanadas. They even have vegetarian options for empanadas which is a first for me. Walking distance to the house as well so you can grab a drink at the bar.

This is a perfect spot for families, you can grab a spot at the bar and hang with locals or a high top or even a big table in their atrium. Food options for everyone in your group. Love the Greek platter.

Hiking trail
You will find the trailhead at the top of Rock City Rd. Parking is limited, so get there early. And easy trail but it is uphill. You will get to see the old ruins of a hotel (think great insta!) and an old fire tower. Great views of the Catskills.
