Catskills Bars, Pubs & Dives to Discover
Hidden gems are scattered throughout the Catskills!
The Great Northern Catskills is best enjoyed over ice, or in a pint glass, or wine goblet. From a series of amazing microbreweries, a new cidery, a stellar wine cellar, and the Catskills Beverage Trail, Greene County knows how to please even the pickiest beverage lover. Visit local hot spots where the cocktails are strong, made with local ingredients, and have bartenders that will always listen to you.
After a day of hiking the peaks, exploring our cultural landmarks, and ripping up some singletrack with your best buds, check out one of our lounges or bars in the Catskills and explore the aromatic adventures of the mixologist mindset!
