BOXED MEALS + DRIVE-IN

The New York Times on Dolly’s: “The pale yellow, all-day cafe debuted last year, serving fresh pastries and morning coffee, salads and a sublime, grilled cheddar-and-ham sandwich at lunch (there’s dinner too, if you stay in town longer). Local beers and drinks can be enjoyed at the bar or at an outdoor table.”

Lohud. recommends Dolly's.

"Dolly’s offers water views without the mediocre menus we too often tolerate for them, coupling the understated elegance of a European all-day cafe with an all-American spirit, all-local beer and all without a single measure of pretension.

The service isn’t just friendly, but as skilled, passionate and knowledgeable as they come, a secret ingredient that underscores a true community-driven feel.”

-E.J. Kelley

“Named for the film’s leading lady, Dolly’s Restaurant opened this past May, in the former location of the iconic Guinan’s Pub on Garrison Landing. The legendary Irish watering hole/deli/general store was a local favorite, but shuttered in January 2008 after a 49-year run.

Now after a decade, The Little Chapel on the River is getting a fresh lease on life under new owners Shelley Boris and Kimball Gell.”

The Valley Table on Dolly's:

"The cafe/bar/restaurant features fresh, seasonal offerings from local farms, including Common Ground, Davoren Farm, Blooming Hill Farm, Four Winds Farm, Liberty Orchards and the Cold Spring Farmers’ Market."

"Good luck choosing a spot to celebrate at the 500-acre landscape of fields, hills and woodlands, peppered with a collection of more than 100 sculptures. This Hudson Valley park brings art and nature together in a way that will make your guests swoon…"

Fresh Company’s founder’s cookbook spotlights Fresh Company food service.

“Picking a venue is a piece of work, but what if your venue was a piece of work (artwork, that is)? For a classy and cultured destination-wedding getaway, consider a sculpture garden for your wedding venue. Big, looming structures make gorgeous photo-op backdrops, while keeping guests entertained during cocktail hour and beyond.”

Our executive chef Shelley Boris provides tips to being a better cook at home. Read the article in Hudson Valley Magazine.

"..the Garrison Institute, together with its local food partner Fresh Company, hosted an evening of earth awareness combining fine, informal dining with a thought-provoking presentation. Held in the institute’s hallowed dining hall with its monk’s retreat walls and long communal tables, an audience of over 100 enjoyed food derived from as many local Hudson Valley and regional sources as Fresh Company co-owner and executive chef Shelley Boris could summon."
