I recently had the pleasure of dining at Valatie Bar and Grill with my husband, and it was a truly enjoyable experience. Located in the Village of Valatie, NY, and the historic Glynn Homestead building, the restaurant is the perfect place to go for great food, cold drinks, live music, Quick Draw, and top-of-the-line sports entertainment.

We started off with some classic American pub fare, with a fun twist. Dino had the Chuck Norris burger, which was a 1/2 lb all-beef burger rubbed with Cajun seasonings, topped with bacon red onion jam and blue cheese crumbles on a toasted brioche roll. He said it was one of the best burgers he’s had in a long time – the flavors were perfectly balanced and the burger was cooked to perfection. I had the Fun Guy Burger, which was also delicious – it was a 1/2 lb all-beef burger with caramelized onions, mushrooms, and swiss cheese on a toasted brioche roll.

Valatie Bar and Grill also has a fully stocked bar with the best ingredients for your favorite cocktail, as well as wine, cider, and a large selection of domestic, imported, and craft beer, on tap and in bottles. We took advantage of their Sunday football specials and enjoyed some bloody marys and mango margaritas while watching the game on one of their six top-of-the-line Sony televisions.

In addition to the great food, drinks, and entertainment at Valatie Bar and Grill, one of the things that really impressed me was the authenticity of the flavors and the reasonable prices. Located in northern Columbia County, NY, the restaurant is off the beaten tourist path, which means it’s able to offer a more authentic dining experience without the inflated prices that often come with being in a popular tourist destination.
