Saturday lunch date. New place for me. Parking may be an issue on busy days but otherwise a gem of Troy. Lovely dark wood, friendly, and cool vibe here. Staff is amazing . Food delicious. Had the legend chicken sandwich, my friend had the mushroom Swiss burger. All was cooked perfectly. Loved the bacon jam on the chicken sandwich. Come here and get treated well. 30+ beers on tap. Awesome time. Would definitely come back.
Great wings. I’d say the best in the area. They don’t have a lingering aftertaste of oil. Garlic blue cheese dressing is awesome.
This was my first visit. Loved it! After business hours you can park in the lot across the street. Very convenient. Not really a dive or ruin pub, but really good local pub.
I love that they have vegan and regular options. The vegan blue cheese is AMAZING!!! Our waiter was very helpful in answering any questions we had. The wings were very good!! The house made vegan mozzarella sticks were some of the best I have ever had. Plus it’s a Buffalo Bills restaurant!! We will definitely be back.
In town on business and did some Yelping to see what was good in the area. I checked out this place and their menu then made the decision. Here’s how it went…
Atmosphere/Appearance: Right off of a city street is this gem. It’s got a good mixture of a dive bar and a decent pub. They were in the middle or doing some renovations so I’m excited to see what the new interior looks like when they’re all done! For now there’s lots of darker woods all over along with a decent bar rail right near the front entrance. Along the back wall is a very long bench seat paired with tables that you can push together to form one long one. It’s a college town so it was a bit loud inside, but you kind-of expect that from these types of bars.
Service: Katie took great care of us. She was so friendly, charismatic, funny and just overall brought an extra level of joy to our dining experience.
Food: I saw wings on the menu so l went for it. They had a list of flavors with some interesting names. I went with the “Brother Rob Hot” which is supposed to be some super hot sauce, but it wasn’t. It had a good amount of eat and great flavor, but it’s nothing to be afraid of. Another flavor I got was the Buffalo Garlic Parmesan. It was delicious and my preferred sauce over the others. Next up was Medium. Medium was medium. I also got the chance to try their Honey BBQ which was a great deep, tangy flavor with natural-tasting sweetness. Last, but not least was the “Sauce of the Day” a sweet, tangy, honey-based selection. It was okay, but quite different. The wings were also big, juicy and not fried so much to where they were burnt. Their house-made bleu cheese was fantastic and went perfectly with the spiciness of the wings.
Value: 20 big juicy wings with bleu cheese, celery and carrots will run you $28.00. Given the size of them and that I can get more than 1 FULL MEAL out of them makes them worth it for sure.
I’d totally come back here specifically for the wings. It’s a nice chill place to hang out with your friends or coworkers to get a beer, some food and take a load off for the day.
