Caledonia Bergenfield Reviews
My first time visiting this bar. No food this night, but the bar was packed and one bartender (possibly Billy) was handling it all with ease. I will definitely go out of my way and make a return visit. 10/10 selection of scotch, bourbons & whisky.
I came here Friday at 9pm and the music was so good. Who ever was on aux has great taste. The servers were also very attentive. Will be coming back!
The whiskey selection is huge and the bartender is amazing. Would totally recommend to anyone to try at least once.
This bar is Epic! Lucky to have found this establishment next to our AirBnB and it did not disappoint! In town for a week from southern France, we bellied up to this bar 4 times on a week long holiday. Unbelievable selection of Scotch whiskeys and Jeff, a proper bartender (complete with authentic accent). If you love whiskey, do not miss this spot. If we lived here, this would be our local watering hole for sure. You’re welcome.
My friend group had a fantastic meal here last week. Restaurant workers offer kind help and suggest dishes you'll enjoy. This place is beyond impressive! The prices are very customer friendly, and the food is very fresh. This place avoids the predictable.
Feels like home the moment you walk in. Our host and bartender, Jeff (spelling likely wrong) was charming, knowledgeable, warm and friendly. Bars can be all the same, but he make this place special. Great selection of whiskies (>250) and frothy Guinness among other standards. Will return often when in area!
The restaurant delivered quality that was obvious in every bite. You'll find tasty options that are reasonably priced. In addition, personnel here displayed both warmth and adaptability. The taste quality is outstanding. Truly flavorful!
Every element of dining here exceeds normal expectations. Employees are extremely respectful and friendly too. Their food list is brief and clear. The amount served is worth the price. I'm happy this spot selected our vicinity.
If the Scotch Egg isn’t enough to have you queuing up outside, then the hilarious bartenders definitely should be. Incredible burger deal, with a great selection of whisky to wash it down!
Great bar, large selection of whisky with some of the coolest staff you’ll meet! Great upper west bar! Also the burger deal is unbeatable and for desert the friendly and knowledgeable bar staff will help you pick out a whisky. This bar is Unbeatable!
Like it's brethren on the UES one of the best whisky selections in the city without all the stuffiness that usually goes with that. The whisky club is an amazing deal.
Quickly becoming a favorite of mine. Environment is great, music selection rotates often, the team working here are so knowledgeable and terrific. Jeff is a great bartender!
My favorite bar in the neighbourhood for a warm cozy whiskey night with a friend or date. Always end up leaving with great memories and occasionally new friends owing to the intimate setting and inevitable striking up of conversations across the bar. The ricotta dip with bread is an excellent accompaniment to whiskey or hard liquor
This was my first whiskey tasting and I can’t wait to go back. They started me off with the sweet whiskey compared to the Smokey for my first time and boy did I love it. The bartender was friendly and knowledgeable and helped me understand the history of the different types of whiskey. I will be back.
Update Feb 2019: **No more food!** They sadly got rid of their food menu and only have olives and almonds now. Huge bummer! Same great whiskey selection though. UWS neighborhood gem! Really glad to have an authentic place for quality scotch on the upper west. Attended a free tasting hosted by Aberlour here this summer, and it was awesome. Aberlour rep was super knowledgeable and gave us plenty of history and context on each of 3 varieties. Tip: Follow Caledonia UWS on Facebook to get updates about tastings. I also can't say enough good things about the staff and the food. My group got the grilled cheese, burger, fried chicken sandwich, and the scotch egg pork sausage appetizer, and all got rave reviews. Ample portions of thick cut fries (little too salty in my opinion but still good) on the side too, for the burger and chicken sandwich. Love that this location serves real food (unlike the UES one). There's a decent number of bar seats, a couple high top tables and a couple low tables in the back, and it's not hard to find a table on a weeknight. Will definitely be back! Update: best fish and chips I’ve found in the city!! Normally $18 but go at happy hour (5-7pm) and it’s $10 fish and chips.
Espresso Martini - 2/5 Nice and cold shaken, but not much flavor. Good foam. NO BEANS. Would not order this Espresso Martini again.
