Everything I've brought home from Picnic was made with obvious exquisite quality and care! Their condiments are a boon to our meals, great rotisserie chickens, sandwiches, sides, everything! I get excited when my travels take me nearby and I've got time to go in!
Happened across Picnic when my bus skipped my stop and made me walk a bit! Decided to try the Italian sausage, and it was delicious. Definitely will try more of their offerings 😋 Love a local, woman-owned shop. Next door to the Ivy Room 💛
Absolutely loved my experience at Picnic! The rotisserie chicken was juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, and the roasted potatoes and sides were delicious. The sandwiches were fresh and hearty, and everything tasted like it was made with high-quality ingredients. The friendly service and cozy atmosphere made the visit even better. A true hidden gem in Albany—highly recommended!

Picnic is a retail boutique, take-out meat market, and bakery space that offers a variety of options for different diets. Their menu features staple selections like rotisserie chicken and potatoes, as well as daily changing sandwiches, soups, and empanadas. One standout is the Farro soup, praised for its delicious taste. The rotisserie chicken is consistently amazing—juicy and flavorful—and pairs well with roasted potatoes and a medley of tasty sauces. The fried chicken sandwich, available only on Fridays, is a popular choice, often described as the best ever. Picnic also offers a wide selection of cured meats and sausages for purchase. Customers appreciate the quick and friendly service, as well as the small outdoor dining area. While some feel the owners seem a bit distant, the well-curated, delicious options leave customers happy after every visit. The grab and go food, sausages, and dessert offerings have also received high praise.
