The Excelsior Pub is a legendary dive bar in Albany that offers iconic meals such as beef on weck and garbage plates. Known as a great hidden gem in downtown Albany, it features a wide selection of New York State craft beers and regional food specialties like Spiedies, Reubens, and of course, Steamed Hams (IYKYK). The full bar includes New York State craft liquor, with recommendations for Rough Rider Happy Warrior cask strength bourbon and 1911 apple vodka, which makes a great vodka tonic. The intimate atmosphere is complemented by friendly service, with incredible wings that are always big and crispy. Customers enjoy an awesome atmosphere with live music and entertainment scheduled regularly, making it a top choice for locals and visitors alike. This place is a must-visit for anyone looking for a taste of authentic Albany hospitality.
