Burger joint and bar Meyer”™s Olde Dutch Food & Such opened its doors at 184 Main St. in Beacon earlier this summer.
The counter-service restaurant, which features an outdoor back patio, is owned by Brian Arnoff, chef and owner of Kitchen Sink Food & Drink at nearby 157 Main St. in Beacon.
Ingredients used at Meyer”™s Olde Dutch are sourced from local food purveyors and include beef from the Hudson Valley, cheese from New York state and produce from area farmers and Arnoff”™s family-owned micro-farm in Hyde Park.
Along with a selection of burgers, the restaurant serves beef hot dogs, a crispy chicken sandwich, salads and side dishes. The restaurant”™s full-service bar offers a selection of New York State craft beer, locally produced wine and house-crafted cocktails.
The eatery is named for Arnoff”™s great-grandfather, Meyer, who once owned and operated Old Dutch Grocery in Middletown.
“My great-grandpa had a wonderful Hudson Valley market where neighborhood folks came for groceries, a laugh and a smile,” Arnoff said. “I thought it fitting to name our fun, casual, neighborhood burger joint in his honor.”
