Manor Rock Restaurant in Hudson to Close January 31, Farm to Continue
The Hudson restaurant will close at the end of January, while Manor Rock Farm continues its regenerative agriculture work in Columbia County.
Manor Rock announced today that it will close its Hudson restaurant at the end of January, with Saturday, January 31 slated as its final service in its current form. The announcement was shared via an Instagram post, which emphasized both gratitude and continuity: while the restaurant is closing, Manor Rock Farm will continue operating, raising the heritage pork and other products that informed the restaurant’s menus.
In the post, the Manor Rock team wrote:
“Restaurant Manor Rock is closing. Saturday, 1/31 will be our last service in our current form. Manor Rock Farm will continue on, raising the pork you know and love. We are so proud of our incredible team and so heartbroken to be closing our doors. We would like to cordially invite all our guests, our regulars, our neighbors, our friends, and those who have been following along, to please join us through January to celebrate this exceptional restaurant.
Cherishing people and ingredients has been our modus vivendi since the beginning. We offered a place to gather together, around all these things we hold dear. We hope to continue that mission as Manor Rock takes new paths.”
Manor Rock opened in late 2024 at 746 Warren Street (formerly home to Hudson Food Studio and Crimson Sparrow before that) was an extension of Manor Rock Farm, a regenerative agriculture project based in Taghkanic run by Zack Nussdorf and Ivy Nallo. As
Chronogram reported at the time of its opening, the restaurant emerged from a desire to close the loop between farming and cooking—bringing vegetables, heritage pork, and other farm-raised ingredients directly into a dining room shaped by seasonality and technique.
The project was conceived as more than a restaurant alone. Its founders described Manor Rock as a philosophy in practice, where land stewardship, kitchen craft, and hospitality were deeply intertwined. Menus evolved with the harvest and leaned heavily on ingredients grown at the farm or sourced from regional producers aligned with its values around sustainability and care for the land.
Since opening, Manor Rock became part of Hudson’s densely populated and competitive dining scene, attracting diners interested in ingredient-driven cooking rooted in agriculture. The Instagram post announcing the closure did not cite specific reasons or outline future plans, but it underscored an intention to carry the project’s core mission forward beyond the restaurant format.
Guests are invited to dine at Manor Rock throughout January as the team marks the restaurant’s final weeks of service. No additional details were provided regarding what the next phase of Manor Rock may look like, though the post suggests the farm will remain central to whatever comes next.
