The Half Moon Hudson Reviews
I ordered half pepperoni but got half sausage, not complaining because that sausage had a great, earthy flavor. The pizza was delicious! Enjoyed drinks on their beautifully lit patio with friendly staff. Definitely will stop by again.
Great pizza and salad, great service, great atmosphere - love this place!
We came here the other day (thursday) for a pizza and some beers. We tried several of their slices as well as a whole custom pie. The quality and taste varied from pie to pie. i was surprised at how strange the plain slice was. very little sauce, or maybe the cheese combination over powered the sauce. if this was the only slice we tried i would have not written the review. but we ordered a whole pie with kale and sausage and was very pleasantly surprised. lots of garlic and ricotta. kale cooked perfectly, with very little flop on the pizza. staff was not very welcoming, bartender was almost adversarial. despite our please and thank you's it was clear we were not welcome. maybe it was rare occurrence, everyone has a bad day. i would return and give it another try. if that's the normal vibe, just put up a sign that says locals only.
One of the best pizzas you can find in and around Hudson! We usually get a classic pizza with pepperoni but this time added half onions! I called to place the order and they were very accommodating when I asked for light sauce on the pizza. You can also place your order online through their website! Sometimes they have specials on there worth checking out!! Definitely recommend giving them a try!!! No
Definitely some of, if not the best pizza and wings in Hudson. If you’re in Hudson and looking for a great pizza, give them a shot.
One of the best locations in Hudson! Really enjoy the Country Dance nights they put on. Awesome live bands!

The best bar in the Hudson Valley. Great pizza, good people and often good live music.
A fun local bar! Has a dive vibe but isn’t a dive considering it’s clean, you can actually use the restroom, bartenders are friendly, and the bar is well-stocked beyond beer — plus, pizza! Their Wednesday karaoke is a good time.
Delicious pizza. I think it’s whole wheat? Either way, the crust has a great flavor and you can tell the ingredients are really good. The meatballs are probably my favorite topping. Would be nice with their ricotta. Will be back!
Funky old school bar with great bar tenders and full of local character. Good strong drinks! A fun place to see bands. In summer they open an outdoors patio area that looks like something from a Greek Island. Shady trees, tables and chairs. Lovely place to meet friends and chat over drinks.
We've been coming here for years and couldn't possibly have better things to say. Amazing pizza, great bar, and the best staff and ownership! This might be our favorite place in all of Hudson.
This place is spacious, clean, lively, and offers good bar service for my limited tastes.
We only had drinks. Great old fashioned bar. Pizza, wings are available. Bartender was really great

Great bar, even better folks working there. Amazing selection on draft and some of the best pizza you can get in the area.

Dive bar down by the river in Hudson. Decent pizza and beer. Decent stage and lighting/sound for small theater or music performances.

Truly amazing pizza....however trying to order ahead for an event (and pay) proved very difficult as they don't take payments over the phone- nor would they take the order the day before I wanted it. (Despite it being a larger order for Friday evening pick up- which is usually quite busy!) Food was great- and it all worked out. Someone from kitchen made arrangements for me to call to place my order ....
You can’t get a pizza they’re closed only drinks, It’s only 930

Ordered food for pickup. No water available even though offered on website. Could not refund. Italian salad nothing but lettuce. Pizza cold .
The pizza was fine, but terribly overpriced. We order two regular and one gluten-free pie. The gluten-free pie was one-fourth the size of the regular pizzas for the same price. Totally ripoff.
The atmosphere is great if you're mainly there for drinks and socializing. For that it gets 4.5 stars. But I was disappointed that the pizza we got was very burnt on the bottom. I figured, every place has an off night. I'll always give a place 3 tries before giving up. I recently ordered a meatball sub. While the inside of the sandwich was delicious, the bread was burnt. Again.

I would’ve given this restaurant 0 stars. The food was disgusting, tasteless, and expensive. Waste of time, walked passed other good places after. Don’t get scammed, don’t even if it’s the first thing you see! Many flies flying around and came in my car once I brought the pizza in.
Terrible experience. Had to pay a $10 cover to get in. Tried to order a drink which I never got because the bartenders ignored us. Even after the guys at the door tried to help me get a drink, the bartenders ignored us and continued serving other people. We left soon after.
