Westwind is on the same road as Arrowood Farms (brewery). We liked the outdoor space and vibe at Westwind better. They have a nice variety of wood fired pizza! The pizzas have an amazingly thin crust! Staff will bring you food order to you, no matter where you're sitting. A positive is that they had a selection of non-alcoholic drinks. They also had some beers and wines, if I remember correctly. (It's been a few days!) Their beer menu was okay. Oh and they have gelato!!! I'd go again, especially for the pizza.

What a gift Westwind is! Our best local option, and well worth the two hour drive from the city. The food is superior - from their exceptional wood fired pizzas featuring homemade mozz and their own, farm raised produce - so fresh and delicious. The restaurant kitchen has flown under the radar for too long. Chef's seasonal soups are magical. Fresh pasta made on site using eggs from Westwind's own happy chickens. Friends drive hours, claiming it's to see me and it soon becomes obvious Westwind's roasted chicken is the real draw. Now let's talk cider. I used to think cider was a one-note headache-inducer. Not so at Westwind. Their options are as complex as wine, varied, interesting, dry and just damn delicious. Their cider maker is a Pommelier! Only 150 of them in the world, and very few are women. Love that we have one right here so close to the other big apple. Incredible setting, life giving really. Staff is friendly and hustles like heck where it gets busy, which is often. I'm a friend and neighbor, obvs., but if I wasn't a fan too, I'd just keep my pie- hole shut and you wouldn't read a thing about them from me here. Hands off the honey gelato, it's all mine. ( The honey from their bees is also swoon worthy.)

5 stars for the ambiance and vibe at Westwind! Lovely staff, beautiful surroundings and Friday night salsa dancing. Felt family friendly and also not too over crowded. I'd give 4 stars for my raspberry cider and 3 stars for the pizza. The margarita pizza was tasty, thin crust and fresh ingredients. The ortolano had all the right toppings to speak to me but was soooooo salty. Huge flakes of salt were super overpowering. Prices for pizza were high considering size (over $20) but everything tasted fresh made to order. I'd definitely be back for a drink and a vibe and maybe a gelato next time!

Amazing pizzas, pastas, salads, and ice cream! I love the thin sliced Salsiccia. Truly, the best I ever had. I forgot to take pic of the Fettucchine al limoncello because I devoured it too quickly. The service was great and the staff is pretty friendly. Maybe I'm just lucky, but it's always sunny when I visit! It was such a beautiful day outside as I stuffed my face. Tip: take the leftover pizza crust and dip it in the lemon pasta sauce. Thank me later.

This place is so fun and relaxing (when it's not 100000 degrees outside). There's not a lot of shade for when it's hot and sunny (I went on a very hot day). It's dog friendly which is AWESOME! The food was fine but overpriced. The guy who took my order was kind of weird when I asked if I should wait for my food to come out or if it would be delivered to the table (you order inside). The gelato was incredible.

We visited the hubby's family in NY and we stopped by here. Westwind Orchard is a family owned & operated farm, cidery & restaurant. I ordered pasta with a simple sauce, while the hubby ordered a salad. We each enjoyed our meal, though wished there was a bit more in terms of portion Also ordered a glass of cider and it was refreshing. They also have outdoor events and tables/seatings outside if you want to enjoy the fresh air :)

Cozy, casual and delicious restaurant serving amazing pizza and locally produced cider from their orchard. This place was recommended to me to visit and it exceeded my expectations. We ordered roasted potatoes, kale salad and margarita pizza. It was very delicious and pizza was really great! I also loved their recommendations for cider, we ended up buying a bottle there. They have some of their produce there . I picked up raspberry and apple jams.

The pizza and food at west wind will blow you away! We stumbled upon the orchard while visiting, and were immediately drawn in by the curated, authentic, and comfortable atmosphere. Their selection of wine, beer, cider, and cocktails was impressive and had something for everyone. The seating offered a beautiful space both indoors and out - we sat in a covered outdoor area and the breeze over the apple trees was so nice. After coming here for the first time and falling in love with the pizza, we came back a few months later to try their summer menu. It did not disappoint! We had the marina pizza and it was delicious - the mixture of tomato sauce, high quality olive oil, capers, olives, and anchovies is mesmerizing. The crust is perfectly thin and has a little crunch. I'm addition to the pizza, We also had the rich crostini (yummm!!) and the fresh zucchini salad. They complimented each other perfectly. It's clear that the menu was created with utmost care, and a deep reverence for delicious food. I don't think you can go wrong with your order. This space was thoughtfully designed, curated with care, and is effortlessly cool. They thought of everything to make this a lovely experience! We'll be adding this to our "must do" list in the New Paltz/Accord area.

A great orchard to go with your friends/family. A must see in the area of Hudson Valley. What a cool place. The food here is a la Italian and has a wonderful selection. Check out menu. The gift shop is divine. The staff is very competent. You order your selections and the staff brings it to your table. Pet friendly, they cater to larger gatherings. We went there to eat dinner and were rather impressed for an orchard.
