Dock-and-dine lakeside dining, cold craft pours, and American comfort food right on the water in Greenwood Lake, NY.
Forty Sterling Road sits on the edge of Greenwood Lake with one of the most coveted views in the Hudson Valley. Pull up by boat, roll in by car, or just follow the sound of laughter drifting off the water. The deck overlooks the lake, the bar keeps things lively, and the kitchen turns out the kind of food that makes people come back for twenty-plus years, which many guests here actually have.
Under new ownership, Emerald Point has taken that loyal history seriously. The menu got a sharp refresh without losing the soul of the place. The pulled pork sandwich has already earned a reputation of its own, and the broader menu gives regulars plenty of new reasons to explore. With 912 reviews averaging 4.3 stars, the place earns its following honestly.
Valet service on busy Friday nights, a dock for boaters, and a pub atmosphere that never takes itself too seriously round out the experience. This is the kind of spot that becomes a ritual, the Friday night boat ride that ends here, the Sunday afternoon that stretches longer than planned.
Emerald Point runs a full American kitchen paired with a proper pub bar, seven days a week starting at noon. Lunch flows into dinner without missing a beat, and the waterfront deck turns any weekday into something worth leaving the house for.
The food leans into American classics done with care: sandwiches built to impress, hearty mains, shareable plates that hold up against a cold drink. The bar stocks what you'd want alongside a lake view, from draft pours to cocktails that match the laid-back energy of the room. On weekends, the kitchen runs until 10 PM, giving the dinner crowd time to settle in and stay a while.
Dock-and-dine access sets Emerald Point apart from anything landlocked. Boaters can tie up and walk straight to a table, making Friday and Saturday nights on the water a genuine event. Valet service takes the stress out of busy nights on shore.
