Service was good, could have been better. I recently came here with some friends, we placed an order but it took a bit over a half hour. was kind of upset over that. Aside from that, the food's always been great here. Would recommend, just not on busy days

This place is a gem. I know it’s not in the best part of downtown Albany. But the staff are amazing. Three waitresses are all great. The have ZERO attitude and just want to make sure you enjoy your drink and or food. There is no better place in the heart of downtown Albany serving drinks, food and smiles . This is a great atmosphere with even better people .

So this is your average blue collar / white collar bar, people who live and work in Albany often come here. They without a doubt have the best pizza you have ever had!!! The sauce is so delicious and so unique I highly recommend ordering one night.

Servers were nice, that’s the only good thing I have to say. the burger buns are way too hard, pasta salad was flavorless, and fries were crispy but didn’t have good consistency, they were difficult to want to eat. Mozzarella sticks were the best part of the experience but I could’ve also just made them myself at home.
Don't really do five stars but have been going here for 20 years and it's consistent with steak fries the reason for returning. Solid pub fare including pizzas

Moved to downtown Albany from NYC and struggling to find good pizza. However, this place serves the best pepperoni pizza! I highly recommend trying it out.
I go to this place once in awhile and the food is always good and drinks are too.I got the lemon pepper wings and my friend got the hot wings ?

6 of us enjoyed dinner here on Sunday evening before a nearby show. If you have an event in the area, this is a great option for a centrally located restaurant. And they are open Sundays, which was hard to find.Even without a reservation, we managed to get in. However, we were there early; I suspect a table might have been harder to get later on. Service was amazing! Drink refills without asking, servers checking in just the right amount, and overall great customer service.It is a small pub, which means it gets loud. This was fine for us, but if you are looking for a quiet spot to have long conversations, this will not be the place you want.Pub food and pizza seems to be their specialty. Boneless wings were very good; a medium sauce had just enough spice. Mozzarella sticks also good (great marinara!) and a decent amount of them too. The pizza was delicious! I snuck a piece of my hubby's pepperoni pizza and loved it! Homemade sauce, great crust, and a nice balance of sauce to cheese. Sandwiches we ordered were good, just not outstanding. If I go back before another show, I would honestly order some more apps and pizza (I was thinking about getting chicken tenders, but didn't. Bet they are great!).Overall, a solid choice if you are in the area for a show and looking for some great pub apps and pizza.
