I used to frequent druthers almost weekly. It’s been three years since I’ve been and I was very surprised how empty it was. The young African American girl at the desk was not friendly at all. If was Friday night and I expected it to be packed but it was almost empty. The arm greeting I’m used to at the desk was non existent with the young lady looking miserable and not even a smile or a greeting. Even thanking her at the table And saying goodnight when we left was treated with silence. The good sadly was subpar at best. Known for their Mac and cheese but the Mac and cheese is no longer that amamizng. U make better at home. The menu hasn’t gotten so small and the food was just below average. I’m so disappointed. We loved their food and most of all the Mac n cheese. Oh well let’s hope the other locations are better. Don’t waste your time or money going here. The atmosphere is sad.

Everything I've had her has been incredible. Beer cheese dip is a must. Mac and cheese, pizza, wings, burgers all are great. My only complaint is the place is a bit loud. Albany location is the best

TERRIBLE SERVICE. Sat at the bar for over 20 minutes and watched the bartenders work the service well and refill other people’s drinks. After 15 minutes we were finally greeted and given menus and had our drink order taken but then we were forgotten again. Never got our drinks. Just left after 5 more minutes to go somewhere else. Bartenders didn’t even notice us leave as they were only tending to the service well.

Nice place, and we enjoy taking the kids here when passing through. I had a very nice Mexican lager, and their beer is generally good. We've had some good food, too, though the cheese pizza was very disappointing. It was basically ski resort pizza. But my wife's Thanksgiving themed sandwich was reportedly excellent and I loved the French fries. Excellent friendly service. The pizza may have been a one-off.

Great, comfortable atmosphere. Staff was very attentive yet laid-back. There was a nice sense of teamwork amongst staff, even though it wasn't so busy. Food was AMAZING. Hot, tasty, and fresh food. Drinks were tasty
Parking: Mostly street parking but there was plenty, possibly because it was later on in the night

This place was recommended to us by the staff over at nine pin, and I feel like they downplayed just how good this place is. There are no bad choices here: both the beer and the food are solid!
Without fail we always do the beer cheese dip and the pretzel bread. My friends are pretty devoted to the loaded Mac-cheese options; flip flopping between BBQ and the buffalo chicken. I’ve really taken a tour of the menu and find new things to love every time we visit!
As for beers, my group usually have trouble finding a brewery to agree on, but the beer list here is so diverse we can all find something we love!
I called to see if they had public wifi for customers, as I had work to do and we both wanted to order food and beer. Turned up 5 minutes after the call, and was then told sorry, I'm not allowed to access the internet. So they wasted my time, and managed to lose at least $100 in spending on beer and food for two people, while the brewery was almost entirely empty. Not sure that's a good business plan. By the way, the tap list looked really good, as did the rare bottle list, so that's disappointing. Although there was a somewhat strange smell in there (and not just saying that because I'm annoyed).

8-12-24. We enjoyed this restaurant. It is what the name states a Brewing Co. I love the HUGE bar with plenty of bar stools. I love the decor of this revamped warehouse. The lighting/ambiance is a little too dark, it just might be my eyesight. I had a chicken sandwich with bacon and fries and thoroughly enjoyed my food. I love the vibe of this up and coming area in Albany NY

Druther’s Brewing Company in Albany, NY is a must-visit destination for anyone who appreciates great beer and delicious food. The brewery’s industrial-chic ambiance — offering a spacious and modern interior, comfortable seating and a wide selection of craft beers — creates a warm and inviting atmosphere perfect for a casual dinner or a night out with friends.
Their extensive menu features a variety of mouth-watering options including pub favorites like burgers and fries to more unique offerings such as Korean-style wings and cauliflower tacos. One of the highlights of eating at Druther’s Brewing Company is their farm-to-table approach to cooking, with an emphasis on using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Whether you’re in the mood for a juicy burger, crispy fries, or a hearty sandwich, their menu has something for everyone. Their signature dish, the Druther’s Burger, is a must-try, made with grass-fed beef, caramelized onions, and a homemade bun. Pair it with one of their award-winning beers for the ultimate dining experience. (Unfortunately my favorite, the Tomato Soup/Grilled Cheese was taken off the menu.)
In addition to their delicious food and beer, Druther’s Brewing Company also offers a friendly and attentive staff that is always ready to assist customers with their needs. The restaurant also provides a vibrant atmosphere, perfect for a night out with friends or a family dinner. Whether you’re looking for a quick lunch or a long, relaxing dinner, Druther’s Brewing Company is an excellent choice. With their emphasis on quality ingredients, excellent customer service, and a welcoming ambiance, it’s no wonder why this Albany restaurant has become a local favorite.
Food and beer here are excellent. We had the bone-in wings, gargonzola salad and French onion grilled cheese. I had a flight with 6 tasters. My favorite was the "Uncurious" IPA.
