Cute place and seems to be local's favorite. But giving it a 4 star because of the service. Servers were great, young but very nice and friendly, but the hostess made the experience much less enjoyable. She left us standing there wondering while she finished a casual conversation while directly looking at us, maybe it wasn't her best day. But still, at least acknowledge customers and mention that you would be right with them, and not just leave them standing there wondering if you even work there. Now to the good part - portions are pretty big and very tasty. We had mainly salads and some wings, but all was fresh and tasted really good. They did forget a few things we ordered but it wasn't worth to fuss over. Lots of school or college kids work there so if you are looking for a great service, probably best to lower your expectations. But if you are just looking to grab a quick bite that is decently portioned - hive them a try. There is a bar inside and we have noticed that people order take out here quite a bit.

Friendly atmosphere, very good food. A little noisy, but it is a pub/restaurant. The French Onion soup was excellent. I had the Shepherds Pie, comfort food at its best. Another had the seafood paella, said it was fresh and tasty. Plenty of parking (Tues), we arrived at 5, by the time we left the restaurant was full. If you are from NYC or NJ and spending the day shopping at Woodbury Commons, drive down 17 instead of getting on the thruway in Harriman, and Characters is on the left in the town of Sloatsburg. You can catch the Thruway a little further south, easy on. It would be a relaxing stop on your way home.

Characters feeds Sloatsburg locals fine Irish fare in an historic atmosphere. Shepherds pie, Chicken pot pie, and a saucy Irish chicken curry are on the menu's "Irish Corner." They have a respectable selection of brews on tap, and the servers know how to pour a good Black and Tan. We first came here to visit a monsignor friend of ours who was filling in at a nearby church, and this was his favorite place. The old Irish priest who loved nothing more than to "go for curry" loved this place and it's easy to see why.

It’s a nice place to hang out with friends. I didn’t try the food as I was coming the Diamond Mountain. So I had lemonade and french fries. I highly recommend if you ever stop by the Sloatsburg train station
