Hoffman House - Kingston (NY)

5 /5 Ashlee Duclos: Arrived on a Friday afternoon and quickly found parking across the street as their lot was full. Got seated right away and our waitress was very pleasant. I’m pretty sure I read the building was built in the 1600’s which is just incredible. You can just feel the history in there! We were there during lunch hours but the kitchen agreed to make us calamari from their dinner appetizer menu which was so kind. It was crispy and delicious. My husband had the French dip with sweet potato fries and said the sandwich was one of the best he’s had. I had the lamb sandwich which is such a unique offering I had to order it! Also delicious and cooked to a perfect medium rare. We would highly recommend it!

5 /5 D: The other half and I stopped in after running an errand in Kingston. The food was pretty good for lunch fair, service was a little on the slow side. The drinks were standard. But the ambiance was fantastic. The decor and feel of a 1600s inn was pretty cool. I would definitely go back and try another meal there.

1 /5 Rebecca Diamond: I had dinner at the Hoffman House today and was really disappointed from a gluten-free perspective. Despite being listed, they do not offer gluten-free pasta or gluten-free bread. I was told this after being seated, which left very few options. I ended up ordering a veggie burger with no bun, and unfortunately, it wasn’t good. This isnt a place that truly caters to people who need gluten-free meals, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone relying on Find Me Gluten Free to locate safe or satisfying options.

5 /5 Nguyen Jenevieve: The historic atmosphere gives it so much charm and character, like stepping into a beautifully preserved moment in time. The roast duckling was cooked to absolute perfection *chef’s kiss* tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented (mushrooms added to my taste). Paired it with a Rönig Dom Hudson beer, which completely lived up to the hype. Crisp, smooth, and just right for a relaxed, satisfying meal. A special shoutout to our amazing server, Angel - so warm, patient, and truly attentive. He made the whole experience even more enjoyable by actively listening to our requests and making us feel completely taken care of.
