The wings were perfect! They had a great deal until 3:30 12 wings 2 beers 20 bucks. I asked for my wings medium and garlic parm tossed together, these were some of the best I have had in the area recently. Will definitely be coming back to try the burger deal (also 20 with 2 beers until 3:30).

The patio out front is really nice! They have four tables with umbrellas and the chairs are comfortable. We were happy to learn that dogs are allowed on the patio. Service was friendly and helpful. It was our waitress’s first day and she did well answering our questions, what she didn’t know, she went inside and returned with an answer. Food was okay. We started with the broccoli cheese bites. They were served with blue cheese and quite good. Ordered a Greek salad. Veggies were fresh, dressing was very good. Croutons were hard and greasy. We ordered a dozen wings and were happy to find out we could split the dozen and get two flavors. My husband got the garlic parm and I got the PB & J. Both flavors were very good, but the wings were over fried. The texture of the wings were just off for me, they were hard and chewy. Some of the fried foods were over fried. Maybe this changes by who is in charge of the fryer…not sure we’ll be back to find out.

This place is known for their chicken wings and I like to travel around and try out places, so we hauled the 1 hr drive as it was our first time. We ordered for an app the soft pretzels with beer cheese and mustard… so soft and so good. Now for the wings we did BBQ, Garlic Parm & PB&J. Yes I did say Peanut Butter & Jelly and it was so so good, the BBQ was like a smokey flavor with a tad of a bite that follows but very good. Those were my 2 top favs so far. There was garlic parm to which was also good. We had Rachel the manager wait on us and she was very friendly and quick to get food out. This is definitely a place I’m going back to and taking the kids next time. She did take down my idea of salt & vinegar wings as they will be trying out new flavors so we will see. We did ask about the very little parking as we were new to the area and that was the only thing I was worried about, but we were informed the lot on the end they are redoing so there will b more so no worries there.

Was finally able to try out this local bar in Schenectady. First impressions of the place gives off a warm and welcoming vibe. Friendly wait staff and awesome bartenders led to a great experience. First ordered a couple of drinks and they have a wide variety of craft and locally brewed beers in New York. Started it off with two appetizers one was loaded tater tots with homemade chili, sour cream and cheddar cheese. For such a simple appetizer it was very good the chili was not heavy and tater tots had the perfect crisp. The other appetizer we ordered was the Chicago style hot dog which was a nice sized all beef hot dog with the fixings from Chicago and they pulled it off well. We kept our dinners light and ordered two dozen wings which one dozen included salt vinegar and dill seasoning which I've never seen before and the execution was phenomenal. The fact that they kept the wing so crispy but also giving a great vinegar taste truly left be coming back for more. The other dozen wings were everything bagel seasoning. The wing was coated in a honey garlic sauce so that the everything bagel seasoning could stick to it but the seasoning that they used was an amped up version of everything bagel seasoning that you would get from the store. Definitely recommend if you want to try something different. The cherry on top of the entire night was ordering the Clydesdale Clucker to go. It is a specialty burger that could be described as massive meets elegant. It is a combination of a flame grilled burger with a chicken patty tossed in buffalo sauce on a brioche bun with blue cheese. I ate half of it when I got home and my fiance ate the other half and I can see why the owner wanted me to try this as I was left speechless. Hats off to the owner, wait staff and the kitchen for producing an exceptional experience and I will definitely be recommending this to all my family and friends as a stop to eat in Schenectady.

This is my favorite bar! Not only do they have great beers on tap they have the best food. You can tell that they put a lot of time and effort into their unique and delicious food and drink creations. Their wings, tacos on taco Tuesday, and tots inventions are amazing. The owner and staff are super friendly and will always take time to chat and ask how everything is. This is our go-to place when we want to get out a have a beer and delicious food. We know we’ll never be disappointed!

Really happy to have checked out this neighborhood bar. Jason was charismatic and friendly and provided great service. The wings were crisp and very good. The blue cheese is unique and very good. Was really looking forward to this place reopening and it did not disappoint. It really does have a nice neighborhood bar feel and I really had a great time and can't wait to go back.
