Stopped in while waiting for my car at the mechanic and I'm glad I did. Some fish and chips with a couple pints of Guinness did the trick - and the bartender, I believe his name was Eli, was super friendly. Would come in again!

Great place, and would love to come back and check out again. We went for dinner and then the comedy club after. Fantastic evening. The staff was awesome, and the food was delicious!

Came up to Poughkeepsie for a day trip and this place hit the spot. The fish and chips was massive and delicious. The fish had the right crunch and flavor profile. The fries that come with it were great. I don't really eat fish and chips regularly but this knocked it out of the ball park. I was nice and full and took a long walk across the bridge. I will definitely visit again in my travels. Service was great. The young lady was attentive and nice. P.S. recommend order the soup of the day. The beef and barley soup was nice and warm for that chilly day.

I was there with my family 8 years ago, place was fantastic, went back this weekend and it's still perfect. Food was spot on atmosphere still great Staff friendly. The place is right across the parking lot from the Metro-North Amtrak station in Poughkeepsie, very convenient.

Love Mahoneys and everything. Very convenient for me since I live so close. BUT Saturday nights they really need to step up their music game…. Just when you think the next song is gonna be a one you can dance to, it’s something even worse than the last. They need a different DJ… period. Sorry but you’re just playing songs off your spotify playlist. I guess everyone’s too drunk to notice but nobody’s vibing. Maybe an unpopular opinion but it’s true.

If you take the train to Poughkeepsie, maybe to do the beautiful walk over the hudson, make sure you stop at Mahoney's. A bit of a dive bar with a bunch of characters but definitely a nice vibe. The tap beer was cold, the wings were good and the service was great. Big shout out to Trenton who is a quality bar tender.

Food was good, had the shepherds pie , which was good but could have been mixed better , one 1/2 was meat & watery , other 1/2 was meat with a lot of peas, had a good taste though. The chili is also goo. Nice to sit outside & see the trains pull into the station. Also has indoor seating upstairs & downstairs.

I used to go here to dance all the time before Covid. Now they play Taylor Swift and there are a lot of college kids, less diverse crowd. On my first revisit in years, they kicked my girlfriend out for using the wrong bathroom when she had a UTI. Extremely disappointing to see the lack of grace and respect patrons receive while plemty of visibly underage people come at night.

Such a nice place but horrible service. Party of 4 sat down to see show and literally everyone around us has order taken. Not saying it's cause I'm brown but not saying it isn't either. The guy looke…

I love, love, love this place—or at least I used to. Mahony’s was one of my go-to spots. I’m here almost daily, I bring family and friends, and I spend money without hesitation because I believed in the experience… until it completely fell apart. Over several recent visits, the service has been flat-out unacceptable. The staff was passing out a special dish to the entire establishment—moving table to table, offering it randomly. Not once, not twice, but three times, the same server (the Black guy with braids) walked directly past us like we didn’t exist. No eye contact. No acknowledgment. Nothing. I don’t know if it was personal, bias, or just pure carelessness—but it felt targeted, and it was embarrassing. When you’re a regular who consistently supports a business, being treated as invisible is infuriating. It makes you question whether loyalty means anything at all here. And let’s be clear: the bartenders are a major part of the problem. The bar service has gone downhill to the point where it’s dragging the entire place with it. Attitude, lack of awareness, zero hospitality—it’s all there. They need to be replaced, because if nothing changes behind that bar, this place will continue to suffer and only get worse. Period. No guest should ever be made to feel ignored—especially not someone who’s been here as often as I have. Between today and multiple visits over the past week, it’s been a complete bust. Yes, the atmosphere used to be great, but atmosphere doesn’t excuse consistently shitty service. At this point, I wouldn’t make the trip unless you’re looking for a cheap drink paired with frustration. There are better options nearby. Shadows on the Hudson isn’t far, Derby delivers a stronger overall experience, and Shatzys may be pricier and smaller—but at least you leave feeling respected, welcomed, and genuinely taken care of. This place had something special. Right now, it’s wasting it. Fix the bar staff—or watch it continue to decline.

Last Thursday I met cousins I haven't seen for over 20 years for lunch. It was a beautiful but the front porch was quite empty. After our delicious lunch, no one disturbed our reunion by demanding we order more or fussing around our table. Staff saw we were enjoying our visit and let us stay. Thank you to Mahoney and your sweet servers. We chatted away until after 3.
