After moving to Delmar, we found that much of the local dining scene was bland, mediocre, and overpriced. Looking to Albany, we were thrilled to find the 217. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable (kind of like a cross between Cheers and Central Perk), service good, prices reasonable, and food excellent.
Wolf Man!
Food was pretty good my wings were a little burned but they werent bad at all. The atmosphere is excellent, it waz very personal just me and my partner. The staff was receptive to needs and was very nice, great drink menu. Highly recommend.

Just got yelled at by the owner outside her property. VERY RUDE TO NEIGHBORS. I am never going back.

I got the corn beef dinner and hubby got the fish fry both were great!! They also made extra effort to make sure the meal didn't have any lemon (food allergies)

I love 217. Always a friendly and welcoming staff, great atmosphere (check out the fireplace in the winter and the back patio once the weather warms up), great food and beverages, and very reasonable prices. Give them a shot!

A really good burger with AWESOME fries in a solid atmosphere, what else do you want on a Monday night?
This place has become one of my fave local spots. I’ve had a potato craving through my pregnancy and this place hand cut French fries hits the spot every time. The sandwiches are bomb and the food is always fresh.

Not from the area but a great out of the way spot. Came on a trivia night, which we didn't participate in but went in the back room to eat and wasn't disrupted. Service was quick and attentive. Great beer selection on tap and in cans. The food was fantastic. Garlic bread bun on their burger was a great addition and definitely spend for the fries upgrade they were great. Would definitely return if I'm staying in the area

Relaxed atmosphere; friendly, attentive, but not overbearing service; good beer selection; great food - we've been looking for a regular place, and this instantly became our go-to.
