About Flying Goose Tavern
Flying Goose Tavern, situated in the evolving setting of Kerhonkson, NY, stands out as a welcoming neighborhood bar infused with local history and the charm of community spirit. The tavern draws its name from the Lenape translation of 'Kerhonkson' — Flying Goose — paying homage to the hamlet’s rich cultural roots. This community bar serves as a crossroads for the blend of long-time residents and newcomers that Kerhonkson has embraced in recent years. Offering expertly crafted cocktails, an array of local beers, and a thoughtfully selected wine list, Flying Goose caters to a diverse patronage seeking quality drinks and genuine local camaraderie.
