Daryl's House Restaurant & Live Music Club

Amazing evening went to see the Soul Cruisers r&b oldies. There 12 piece band with numerous singers were fantastic. I danced all night long! The drinks were strong & reasonable priced we had a great time! Will catch their show in Del Ray FL.

Great music venue with surprisingly good food. Been there several times, most recently to see Bywater Call. Service attentive. Prices reasonable. Venue attracts touring acts from all over. Professional stage and sound makes for a good musical experience. Seating can be a bit cramped. Tables are first come, first served so get there early if you want a table closer to the stage. There are standing areas in the dining room and at the adjacent bar. Private dining room available.

Daryl’s House is so much fun and tonight was no exception! We saw the Nerds and they rocked! And they’ve been rocking for 40 years! Let’s just say the last time I saw them I had much more hair and much less waist - down the Shore post-college with my goombah friends from Staten Island. The food was fantastic, good beer choices, and a small venue for listening to great bands. We’ll be back!

Great venue with superb food, intimate environment with not a bad seat in the house! Pleasant and courteous staff. Reasonable prices especially given the varied menu and the high quality food. Lots of variety in the live music! We went 3 days in a row!

Hi Marissa! Thanks a bunch for a delicious lunch. All staff were very friendly and approachable too. Oh&BY the way , this tune was playing when we got back in the car to go 🏠

Best burger and Bloody Mary I’ve had in a long time. Came here because of the music for their Sunday brunch and great food and atmosphere . We we were there for their Saturday brunch also and the music was just as good. The second time around and the food was fantastic.

We went for live show. The main parking lot was full but they provided a shuttle to another parking lot. Very friendly driver. Cool vibes during the Unforgettable Fire band show. We didn't reserve a table so could only stand, but we liked moving to the music so it wasn't a hardship. This club isn't set up for dancing but there is some space to move. Next time, we might try the food. People seemed to enjoy it.

Probably 2 stars, but Darryl Hall put his name on the building so that’s 80 percent of the attraction. A phenomenal artist whose on line shows are truly entertaining. The Darryl’s house experience, Road House attendees beware. Unless you are able to reserve a seat at a higher ticket price, be prepared to stand for 4 hours. Rude receptionists are probably the product of their environment as they deal with dissatisfied patrons who arrive at doors open time in hopes of finding some first come first served additional seats (as advertised on the website). They don’t exist, unless you purchased tickets to a show to be seated in a side room. I was told all seats were sold out and stood a rail for 2 hours before show time while seats remained empty behind the rail. Once I did arrive early and was fortunate to get a table for an upcharge to my original ticket price. Not to worry about the standing at the rail there is a “standing only” menu. Just don’t come hungry. If you don’t have a reserved seat, don’t arrive early expecting to be fortunate enough to additional perimeter seating as advertised, that’s false information even if it is published on the clubs website. Once the show starts you are in for a treat, it is a relatively small room and not a bad vantage point in the room. Mostly tribute band entertainment, appealing menu, horrible service and hospitality. true story!

Have visited the club numerous times and have seen various bands. Talent is always top notch and definitely delivers great shows. The staff is professional and accommodating. We had Gabe working our table this weekend and he's far and above most waiters and always makes our dining and pleasure. So just wanted to say thank you Gabe and hope you're handling our table in the future.

Waitresses had to do a cha-cha-cha to get to the tables, very good ambience, except that the tables were so tight I could had to bite my tongue from inserting my opinion into the conversation. The real draw here is the stage very large stage fit lots of musicians intimate for the audience. The sound was way too loud For the size of the room, my ears hurt. Quite disappointed in the limited draft beer selection it's a total of six beer choices to loggers to IPAs three loggers two IPAs number nine. You can do better Daryl. Your name is on this place. I can't help but believe you've only been there to perform on the stage and never had to actually sit in the chairs and watch band play for a few hours. I have, my but hurts. I saw the Samples, they were excellent

We enjoyed everything about our visit to Daryl's House. The table we had was fantastic and I will request the same one the next time we plan a night out at Daryl's. Our waitress, Marissa was terrific, very attentive, friendly and helpful!! Everything we ordered was delicious and cooked perfectly for each person in our party. The band we went to see was phenomenal!! If and/or when Departure returns, the four of us will make reservations early! This venue is one of the best I have been to when it comes to the atmosphere, food, acoustics and service!! I highly recommend this place and have never been disappointed. Hopefully, I will be back the end of March! Thank You Daryl Hall for creating this amazing place and allowing us to make wonderful memories with the awesome bands that perform there!! Bravo! 5 Stars because I can't give more!!!!

Once again, great time great music great, Price. Can't beat it. go there for a free music never know what musicians going to play but it's free why you eat brunch how can you go wrong. Love the bloody Mary's with the smoked bacon. You get one piece of smoked bacon it used to be a full piece of smoked bacon and I always ask for two and this time I only got 2/2 pieces they actually fell to the bottom of the drink, they were so tiny. Maybe they were running out of bacon I'll find out next time I go. go to their website and you will see how many shows they have all weeklong. But you buy a ticket could tickets go fast they have a ticket for seating for dinner and then you gotta pay for dinner and they also have tickets for just general admission you coming after dinner and hang out and drinking and watch the band

What a great Father's Day brunch! We had never been here for brunch before, but it didn't disappoint. I had the chicken and waffles which was one of the best chicken and waffles I've had in a long time! The chicken was crispy and had a great marinated flavor underneath the coating. Just perfect! The waffle was crispy and soft inside with a nice strawberry butter. Yum! My friends both got the chicken avocado sandwich which was equally good, fresh with delicious avocado spread on top. It was a packed house, with live music, which is relaxing and great! Our server was really nice and worked very hard. I will be back!

Went for Saturday brunch and music with a group of eight friends. Our server Melissa was excellent. even though she had several tables to serve she took time to answer questions and take our orders. Everything from the omelette to hash, salads and eggs Benedict plus drinks and desserts were enjoyed by my party of friends. The fish and chips are not recommended unless you like a little bit of fish inside a heavy batter that is not crispy. The cold slaw on the other hand was delicious but overall didn't make up for the fish. The entertainment was good and acoustics were fine. We went in January and the building was pretty cool so there were many of us in there with our winter coats on.

Actually came here from NYC to see XTC which was great. A fantastic intimate venue. Menu is ok. Plenty of parking. My only issue was that my friend and I both got a bill for the entire amount. When we brought it to the attention of the server she corrected the bill. However , both our bank statement were billed for the wrong and the right amount so I'm out $75 till the correction goes thru.

LOVE this place! Always fun and great service...shout out to Gabe! We always ask to sit at his section as he's the best! AND the food is actually yummy! It's a must do in the Hudson Valley!

This was my first time here. The place is absolutely great. The music was stellar. Now, for the food. One of the specials was steak, potatoes and asparagus. My friend and I were literally working up a sweat trying to cut the steak. We kept trying to cut through this bland piece of rubber so as to honor the cow that lost its life for us. We couldn't finish it. When the server asked if we wanted to wrap it up, I said we couldn't cut it! She just smiled and took it away. Anyway, the skinny margarita with jalapeños was good. I would go back here but definitely not for the food. It's a fun place with a great crowd.

What we love: -Sunday brunch (free live music, great menu..,) -Bloody Mary is awesome!!! -the music (obviously) we've seen some great artists there over the years including Vanessa Carlton & many others -great food -nice decor -outdoor space -clean bathrooms Why I can't give 5 stars: I've brought many friends there for many occasions (my birthday, anniversary, moms birthday, Mother's Day, random nights out, etc...) and every single time I hope the painfully slow service was just a fluke my last few times. Unfortunately each and every time I've brought a group there & got a table, I have to apologize to my friends for how long it takes to get a drink. We began ordering two at a time. As a fellow server I wanted to understand what the holdup was when I noticed during a Sunday brunch that the servers were making & pouring their own drinks! No wonder. One time I came in for a drink on a random Friday night with my boyfriend. We sat at the bar for about 8-10 minutes waiting for someone to come over. No one ever did so we left :/ just a few minor adjustments and this place would be 5 stars for me!

Sit in the lower area when listening to a band. There is a standing room only area where people can block your view if you sit up top.

Came here for the first time last night to see the legend Todd Rundgren for my brother's birthday. It was his second time here. In all honesty, I don't have the desire to return here ANY time soon! It's about a hour and 45 minute drive here from where we are in Queens, which included traffic on the Whitestone bridge. Once you get 30 minutes from Pawling, it's a really nice, senic ride with many peaks and valleys. We drove into the parking lot around 4:20. Figured it was good timing since on the tickets it said doors at 5 PM. Parking lot was a decent size but gets filled quickly! Keep in mind, yesterday was the hottest day of the year so far. As we approached the entrance, we noticed the sign said "Doors 6 PM". That's outrageous! I would say most people traveled from far distances since this place is in the middle of nowhere. So to change the time on the tickets without prior knowledge on the HOTTEST DAY OF THE YEAR is a bunch of b.s.! Everyone was pissed the hell off. People on line were calling and complaining. One disabled guy even pounded on the door for them to open up and let him in. Thankfully they did. Do you know how BRUTAL it was standing outside in 97 degree weather with the sun blistering down on you?! Awful. They finally did let us in at 5:30. A total bumrush ensued. I did some research beforehand and going from my brother's experience, I thought there would be tables on the floor with a first come, first served basis. I was wrong. It was an open floor like a regular floor with standing only. Towards the back of the floor you had about 4 bar tables with drink service. In the back of that was priority seating. They also had dining room, patio and bar seating, but then you wouldn't be able to see the stage. We chose to stand and got directly up front leaning on the barricade. Sweet spot. I don't know why they make you print out tickets for the show because they didn't scan them. Only asked for your name and that's it. Also didn't do security check. Now, I felt the air conditioning for the first few minutes. After that, for the rest of the night, THERE WAS NO AIR-CONDITIONING!!! ON THE HOTTEST NIGHT OF THE YEAR SO FAR!!!! UNACCEPTABLE!!! We, and Todd, were dying all night. Drinks helped, but not that much. Poor Todd even sang the encore holding the fan up to his face that they put on the floor for him. Kept wondering all night if I'd make it until the end. Now, this is a Todd Rundgren show so the demographic is 50+. I'm soon to be 46 and even the experience of last night zapped all of my energy today. Not cool to do this to that age demographic, let alone any age! The ONLY reason this gets 2 stars is because of the drinks. They made them strong and were only 7 bucks each! Gin and tonic and rum and Coke for $7 is a steal. Especially in the large glasses they were serving them in with the heavy pours. Another artist I like is playing here in October. I'd love to go but I don't want to have that clusterf*$k experience again. It pains me to give the place of one of my 80's idols a bad review , but it needs to be said. Hopefully all the complaints get back to him and he does something. I know him and Todd are good friends. Hope he mentions something to him.

I have attended this club countless times. Every show has been above the top and could not expect more from the staff , entertainment or the menu. Last night I enjoyed an excellent led Zeppelin Tribute band called ZOSO. The band had trouble hearing themselves. The sound man expressed that this is how Zeppelin should be heard but does not realize the majority of the crowd are over 60 and that Daryl's house is MSG. Many people have expressed they concern about the volume in both occasions and many did not remain until the end of the show . Help me understand because it has been 24 hours and my hears are still ringing

Such a great fun place to hear music The band Blood Brothers are so compatible and put on such a great show

Our friends had mentioned they had a great brunch at Daryl's so we decided to take the 35 min drive north to check it out on a Sunday. We called ahead and made a reservation. It wasn't necessary but you never know. The place has plenty of free parking out front. We walked in and immediately were greeted by their hostess and some great live bluegrass style music. We grabbed a great table for two and were quickly attended to by our smiling waitress, Marissa. My husband and I ordered drinks, well I ordered a Mimosa and he got a coffee. After one sip he commented how delicious the coffee was! Marissa asked if we had been here before , when we said no, she made some suggestions off the menu, French toast and steak and eggs were her favs. I stuck with the vegetable omelet but my husband took her suggestion for French toast and ordered it. Neither entree disappointed. Both were served hot, delicious and plentiful. The omelette was overstuffed with so many delicious things along with breakfast potatoes!. The French toast was also delicious! We were stuffed! No room for dessert! Marissa was super attentive and friendly! We will most definitely return! Highly recommend!

I have gone to Daryl's House and saw countless concerts at Daryl's House ! Having moved from Manhattan to Dutchess County I absolutely love This venue ! You can utube the Band's to make sure you love the Band ! I would definitely recommend that you make sure your reservation is for a sit down reservation--it's worth The Extra Money ! The staff NEVER pushes you to order Dinners etc We usually order a appetizer and drinks -- Daryl's House does get crowded for parking but they have fixed the problem ahead of time--you park in the next door supermarket space in the back parking area of the supermarket on the right corner--Frequent Daryl's House Buses with wonderful friendly drivers pick you up for your convenience!! I do NOT have to worry about the Staff inside the Restaurant-- Excellent Service!! ROCK COVER BANDS ARE EXCELLENT!! (Again utube for your style of music) It's Loud but I think Daryl's House has been a HIGHLIGHT in my life !

Went with another couple and had a nice brunch. Food was great and the live music added to a nice Sunday. Reasonably priced; best Bloody Mary ever.

Such an amazing place! I loved it here! I came here for a weekday show. It wasn't too crowded. I got here at 5:00 to park; this is when the doors opened too. I'd recommend getting here early to park. The parking lot filled up quickly. If you want to eat dinner here (and sit down), you need to call in advance to reserve a table (or to reserve a bar stool in the bar area). I got here, hadn't reserved a table, but ordered food from the stand up menu. The band started soon after I ate. The sound and views are incredible from anywhere in the venue. This is definitely a great place to see a show! I would highly recommend coming here! I'll be back again soon for another show!

Do not sit in elevated section- although you may think this gives an unobstructed view of stage/performance- it does NOT! Standing room ticket holders are placed directly in front of you!! Guy in front of me tonight was at least 6'3" & as wide as a linebacker..wife wasn't much shorter.. after paying for table seating as well as for dinner & drinks, to have the performers 'unseeable' is inexcusable. Also.. they need a 'bouncer' / unruly patron manager.. guy at table behind us to the back of the club was very drunk & loud.. evidently thinking he should compete with amplified instruments while talking through entire performance, As much as we liked the talent, we left before the show ended.. just too much to handle ( we weren't the only ones who did this) ..Food was good, server was good .. too bad the night wasn't.

Believe the hype. The food is 5 star and service is excellent. I went there on a Saturday lunch with a local artist just to see the venue on a non big event since it was a small room. There are 3 sections - back of the room with tables that don't move even on a concert day and a bar. There is a walk way that separates the back section from the main floor, where seats are removed on more popular shows. Great place to enjoy music and a great meal.

Food was great. Service was excellent. Band was amazing. Ambiance is beautiful. Bathroom needs to be kept clean more. Tables was to tight

You can't beat a great free weekend lunch concert! The music is great, food is good and modestly priced, and service is always attentive.

Excellent Venue for an intimate night out to see classic bands, artists, and have dinner. We saw Ambrosia there and had to stand but we were only about 10 feet from the stage. Perfect view and the sound was awesome!

Food was wonderful!! Service was excellent and music was perfect. Just the right volume and full of memories!!

Ok. This place gets 3 stars because we love the venue. Music is a 5 star/ serv./ 1 star We will return again because of the music. But we're here 1.5 hours and waiting for our dinner. Bad scheduling. Because tickets are sold for these nights so they should plan staffing accordingly still no dinner

This place is good. Probably because of the recent outbreak, it was understaffed the night we went. We arrived during the first song, and nobody checked our tickets (a first in decades and many hundreds of shows) and nobody checked our ID or vaccine status. It didn't bother us but some people it might. The band was loud so we got a good feel for the sound; it's quality. The ceilings are low, clean sightlines, good bar with extremely cold beer. People sat at tables and we did too, no cocktail service, which was fine, we just ordered at the bar, no waiting at all. I would come here over and over but it is 71 miles from my house. Recommend.

Went this week to see Billy Gilman. Amazing talent ! Anyway, the place has great / easy parking. What a bonus! The place has a nice vibe with great seats. No matter where you sit you can see the artist well Seating/ tables were a little tight which made it difficult to get to the restroom or for waiters to get around bTW our waiter was amazing ! Gabe!! We had the sangria , good but on the sweet side. Patron shots (can't go wrong). Pork chop dinner, burgers, pasta, all were good. Had some coffee with Kaluha - yum! Tried the apple crumb dessert it was "ok" Would definitely come back to see some great talent and have a dinner. Give it a try!

This is a very special place I always enjoy the performers and the brunch. Thank you Daryl for creating this wonderful venue!

I enjoy the music and the ambiance, but twice now when I've bought tickets for a social event. Two tickets, $200 +, we end up standing up in a corner somewhere because they overbook the place. No place place to eat or drink. This is seriously a mess.

Great food, fantastic ambiance, and top shelf live music! We simply love Daryls House and make it a point to visit every time we're near Pawling NY !

Went to see Todd Rundgren. The temperature outside was 95 degrees. The temperature inside was 96 degrees. A great place to see a show, but how can you charge $85/ticket and not air condition the venue. Even Mr. Rundgren was complaining about the heat on stage.

Fabulous venue to catch a show and enjoy an amazing meal! I drive 3+ hours to take in the experience here. Everything is wonderful! The staff is friendly and extremely accommodating. The crowd is extremely friendly as well. Definitely worth the drive! I plan to return and do it all again!

We went for a show last night. On arrival, they needed to collect $10 for an upgrade that was unable to purchase online, before we could be brought to our seats.... why not add it to the bill? The seats & table we were brought to were sticky, to the extent that my dress is now covered in sticky goo that was on the chair. When I asked for it to be cleaned, it was wiped down & not dried, so I used my napkin for that. Food is ok, service was ok, only motivation to return is some music we might want to hear & then I would sit at the bar.

Great venue for entertainment that now includes comedy. Food is just OK. Not worth the price though.

Based on some of the negative reviews, I'm glad I purchased the reserved seating tickets because my party and me got to show a little early, had choice seats right in front of stage and had zero complaints. Food was unexpectedly great. Band was great. The service great. Had a great time. When the show ended they do clear out the place. I didn't mind, just wound up taking it to a place closer to home. Would definitely go back.

Good food, great music--NEEDS A DANCE FLOOR! Why bring in live music if you can't move and feel joy? Tables too cramped. But fun anyways.

Outstanding brunch, the food here is exceptional! People should go for the food as much as the music! We had the brioche French toast, biscuits with sausage gravy and shrimp/avocado omelette, all very tasty! Not to mention the wonderful free live music to accompany the brunch. Highly recommend!

Daryl's House is an awesome place to have a great homey meal and listen to awesome live music. Great place to hang with friends at the bar and always a fun and different experience. Would definitely recommend for the atmosphere and experience alone.

Having been fans of Daryl Hall, and now of the Live at Daryl's House show, we now add Daryl's House to that list! We have family in New York City and will stop here on our way down or on our way back. We've come a few times now and have truly enjoyed every experience. We've been through on a Saturday and Sunday and have enjoyed the food, ambiance and the music. On our last visit, it looks like they are expanding, which is awesome! It is nestled in sleepy Pawling, Ny, right on Route 22. It actually seems like a fantastic little town, and a perfect place for this venue. There is plenty of parking and it just feels like home. The staff is wonderful and the decor is exactly what you see on the show. The menu on weekends is a fantastic brunch. My husband lives the crab omelet. I highly recommend making the trip! You won't be disappointed!

Finally out to Daryl's House and glad we did. Angelica, our server, was wonderful and attentive even though she was juggling many tables. The food was very good and portions were on point. The Shrimp avocado tower and the (huge) cheesesteak were really yummy. We're planning on brunch next!

Terrific venue for an intimate musical event - sound quality is good, lighting is well designed and the stage has excellent visibility. Plenty of table seating is located on the floor in front of the stage or on the rear "balcony". There is also a rail in between that you can stand at and still rest small plates and drinks. To the right of the stage is a pass-through bar area - you can sit and listen with limited visibility or, sit along the back wall and just listen and chat with your friends. The place is decorated in warm woods and the menu ranges from full dinner plates to "fun plates and desserts". Food is reasonably priced, as are drinks and the fare was surprisingly good. Check it out at: http://www.darylshouseclub.com/menu The key here is a ticket purchased directly from Daryl's, as resale prices get like most other scalped tickets - expensive! The house policy is only to sell to seating capacity, which I like, so you don't wind up packed in like a sardine. We saw Sister Hazel - a band that normally plays at much larger venues, so it was terrific to be able to see them in a much more personal setting. Get on the mailing list to see who's playing!

4 stars because the staff are all friendly, the coffee was fresh and perfect, attentive staff and the sound was excellent. No pissed off bouncers acting like dicks either. Free shuttle from a lot 1 minute away. I can not review the food personally,I heard the lobster grits need to return.

Attended the Nektar show on March 23rd with my son. From the moment we arrived everything was fantastic. I pulled into the parking lot & was shown a spot near the door. The guy that showed us the spot & opened the door wouldn't accept a tip. Although we had GA tix we were offered a table to order dinner. The food was exceptional. My son said it was the best calamari he ever had. My Philly Cheese & burger were also great. We stayed in our booth throughout the show & our waitstaff continued to bring us soda & water all show, without prompting him. I can't say enough about the vibe, quality of food & service. I assumed my bill was 2x as much as I was asked to pay. I gladly gave a 50% tip. Dinner, show , great seats & wonderful service for all less than $200. I'll be back soon. Thanks again for giving us a wonderful evening of food & music!

Wow! Was expecting a club and got way more! Great food, decent spacing for everyone, good sound space and a very intimate room for an evening of live music. It was worth the trip, worth the dinner and made for a great evening!

$40.22 for two beers and a half plate of wings. $20.11 a piece for three wings and a beer. For surly staff who never heard of saying "thank you" and don't honor happy hour specials when you show up 15 minutes before the special is over. Whatever, won't be back. The wings were competent though.

Went last night to hear some great Irish music...The Young Dubliners were amazing! The food was very good and we enjoyed our evening. Only issue was our server...she went MIA for an hour...the band was finished and off the stage and still no server. We had a heck of a time trying to pay our bill as we had NO bill. It was just not our table but ALL of her tables...we were all standing up searching for our server...she should have been cashing out her tables long before the band was off stage...

Great concert venue. Surprisingly good food. No bad seats. Cheap. Easy parking. A total pleasure

If you are reading this review, it means that the issue has still not been resolved. I went to see Uli Jon Roth in April 2019. I bought two DVDs. Both DVDs were defective. I discovered the problem right away & contacted Uli's tour manager, Robert Sillitoe. He responded initially but has not refunded or exchanged the DVDs for me. Lately, he doesn't respond to my emails or give me an address so that I can send the defective DVDs to him for his inspection. I guess he just figures that I will forget about it the longer he stalls. Oh, the food here is great. I would have given them five stars if it wasn't for the DVDs. I am hoping that the folks at Daryl's House understand that this reflects badly on their establishment & contact the Uli Jon Roth management about the issue as I haven't been able to make any headway with them as a consumer.

OMG....just get some air conditioning!!!! I've seen artists almost die on ur stage. Food is mediocre and expensive. Okay if it a band that you REALLY want to see, but far from ideal
