Tivoli General

Charles says it all; horrific prices, barely stock the bare necessities. No cash under a $5 dollar purchase is a real racket for a place that primarily moves $2 cups of adequate coffee. Real petit-bourgeois vibe with the $15 dollar salami. I hate myself every time I go in, which is far too often, given that they’re the only (pseudo) grocery shop in town. Owners are miserable folks, adept at capturing the gentrifier energy the weekending brooklynites love so much. And for goddess’ sake there are enough potential employees for the place to be open 7 days a week; 5-6 day a week schedule is the most damning clue that this operation is a vanity project run by entitled millennials.

Lovely little "fancy bodega" in the Hudson Valley. Usually see Bard students hanging out and/or working here. We mostly come for the sandwiches, which are excellent, not only because the quality of the cheeses and meats is so high, but because the bread is absolutely perfect. Sometimes they have croissants and other pastries as well as bialys on the weekends, and that's a true treat. They also carry a fun selection of local and imported beers, from Suarez to Rothaus.

Good food and jolly staff. The place to see and be seen in the mornings of this little village of outsize influence (Bard college is just a farm or two over).

everything about this place is pretty good, except for the fact that the prices are soo inflated. im still reeling over the fact that eggs are over $7 for a dozen and the hand soap is like $12. also genuinely confused why a general store is closed on tuesdays, a pretty essential week day for students, employees and commuters. in general, it just feels as though this store was designed for weekenders and not for those that rely on their products for daily life

Great sandwiches with freshest bread I've had. Lots of tables outside. Nice selection of cold drinks. Also you can get stuff for the house if need be.

perfect general store: great selection of all grocery items, great coffee and beans sourced from all over the world, and best of all, their bialy sandwiches made with wonderfully fresh bread and local ingredients. can't miss this if your are in town.

Home away from home. Tivoli General has been a lifesaver for our transition from NYC to Germantown. If you haven't had the baguette (which I'm sure you have) do yourself a favor. Also, perfect drip coffee.

Amazing breakfast sandwiches; a friendly and sunny environment. Feels like the Center of Tivoli!

If you want lunch in the hudson valley, this is the place to be. Their sandwiches are amazing, as well as their bread. In addition, they also act as a small grocery.

Tivoli General is the best thing that has ever happened to Tivoli. I know I'm not the only one around here who is sincerely grateful to have access to such high-quality provisions in our tiny village. It's a beautiful space with exceptional sandwiches, baked goods, and homegrown, farm-fresh produce. It also doubles as a book and record store. Oh and they host fundraisers for local progressive causes! What more could a Tivolian ask for?
