PAKT

Finally got to try Pakt. It was worth the wait! The pig wings were 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾 I am not a clean bone type of gal, but I did not leave a morsel behind. I also got a chance to speak to the chef and listen to his amazing story of perseverance. The food is amazing, the staff is amazing, the atmosphere feels like you're having a meal at an old friends house. We will absolutely be back!

We had made same day reservations for a bigger table (6 adults and 3 kids) on a rainy Sunday labor day weekend, and Dan was kind enough to accommodate our same day request and gave us a nice indoor table.

Dan was clear at arrival about the fact that he was understaffed by 2 people and so understandably the service was slightly slower and explained this to us in a humorously convincing way. None the less, we were seated, placed our orders, and had a wonderful time under Dan's hospitality. And yes, if it isn't clear by now, Dan was one of the features of our visit to PAKT that made it a bit of an entertaining experience for us.

Food Review: Let me begin by saying that food overall here was absolutely delicious and flavorful. We ordered a few things which included Biscuit N gravy ($14), their Award-Winning Mac and Cheese ($10) - which was a perfect portion for our 5 year old, a BLT Bene ($16), Jethro ($16), Egg Skillet ($13) one with crab cake and one with chicken, and a vegan option ordered by me, which was a really tasty Vegan Chilly which was listed on their specials menu.

For drinks, I also ordered a Lite lager, and a very tasty Bloody Mary... the pickled okra on that Bloody Mary was Bloody tasty!

Food took less than 25 minutes to arrive, and overall, we had a very nice experience at PAKT, thanks to Dan and his team! We will definitely visit again and will recommend this place to our friends who live in nearby towns.

Started out on the right foot with the friendly greeting from the counter as we walked in the restaurant.

Eggs Benedict brunch hit our expectations. The friendly service exceeded them.

Very tasty fried chicken on buttermilk biscuit. Very tough decision from a menu with so many things I wanted to try!

Update: While my photography skills may well have gone downhill, PAKT continues to be excellent. The Jethro Box burger was fantastic (albeit a bit messy to eat in the car) and the side of greens I chose was sublime. I know - it's hard to screw up greens - but whatever they're doing takes it up that extra level.

what a gem of a find while visiting upstate! we came for the vegan options & were highly impressed by everything. everyone was super friendly & accommodating with substitutions… food came out quick, hot & perfect. pictured is the vegetarian/an biscuits & gravy with root veggie hash browns which is not only genius cuisine but executed perfectly & delicious. added bonus is a full bar with creative cocktails, wish we were staying up here longer to visit again but next time we’re in town it’ll be our first stop!

stay ungovernable; stay anti-fascist! ✊

Came here as a stop from upstate with a large group of friends. They were able to accommodate after making a reservation the morning of which was super nice since this place does get backed. Their beat hash browns are unique and something that I’d love to have again. If you’re in the area, you have to stop by because you can’t go wrong with any of the options.

Never disappointed. Consistently great food at affordable prices. Fun menu with a Cajun/Southern emphasis. And the customer service is always on point! Showing Kingston love by making Broadway it's home. Much respect.

The drinks are good but the food is really where it is at. Always delicious and more tha you expected. Great queer nightlife and events hosted regularly including drag shows and trivia. I travel to go to PAKT regularly and you should too.

Such yummy breakfast! No indoor dining so call ahead for pickup or eat outside. They have a new vegetarian gravy (Creole gravy) for a veggie sausage and biscuit. So good!

This place has such a welcoming and fantastic environment.
The selection of delicious comfort food smashes into the realms of art and fine dining.
The staff are upbeat. Quick and efficient.
The owner was there hustling with the dinner rush and then came to our table to see how our service was.
The building itself is gorgeous and open. Beautiful work by local featured artists hang on the walls.

Loved the vegan options, you must try the tofu chicken and the mushroom it is the bomb. Most delicious I had for a holiday party. 😋

Get. Here. Now. This is a place to over-indulge. Staff was awesome. Cool funky vibe. And God damn is the food great!

Off beat, slightly renegade, southern style brunch. Only place in NY that I've found that serves hashbrowns and not home fries. Staff was super friendly and down to earth. Coffee was *amazing*. Wait time was a bit high and you might end up listening to Prince at very high volume but it all contributes to an eclectic and fun atmosphere. A gem of midtown for sure.

Best brunch spot in Kingston hands down. Great selection and inventive specials for carnivores and vegans alike. Good drinks to boot. Staff are fun and welcoming. 10/10 would recommend for any casual brunch needs

Unique spot offering scrumptious food. A little different (in a good way). Got takeout on a sunny Saturday after the farmers market and sat at a table outside. Super friendly service. Go now!

Very friendly and professional staff. They recommended a burger that was one of their specials for the day and it was absolutely delicious. I will definitely return when I'm in the area again!

Simply Delicious! (Not pictured here are the amazing drinks they offer...pleease take a look at this menu!!)

Best southern food in town. Their grits are to die for. I've been coming here for years. It's smack in the center of down town Kingston. Their brunch is awesome and they are great for dinner too, not to mention the incredible service. If you're craving cheesy grits or biscuits and gravy then this is the place to go!

This was delicious. Had blackened catfish sandwich and added fried avocado. Stunning. The biscuits and gravy with eggs and sausage was also outstanding. That fried sage added a depth of layer me and my partner absolutely appreciated. Service was fun and kind. The whole place feels like a hug when you walk in. Safe and comforting, just like the food. Five outta five.

Best breakfast I’ve had in a long time. Corn cake was awesome, chicken biscuit and grits also perfect. Everything tasted delightful and the custom mugs are a 10/10 (IYKYK). Drive here now.
