Walking into this tiny cocktail bar feels like stepping into an old European barn—but one that serves cocktails and mocktails with seasonal ingredients and fresh juices, organic wines, caviar, and fancy tinned fish. Owner and Farmhouse Pottery co-founder Zoe Zilian created a cozy, elegant bar in the brookside 1915 building, which boasts exposed beams and a vintage brick floor; it's tucked away from Woodstock's main drag, but is a must-stop for an evening drink.
