“My wife and I stopped in for an after dinner drink. Excellent list of sparkling wines by the glass and great list of bottles. We had just had dinner so didn’t get the charcuterie but the guests the next table did and it looked terrific. Next time. Great ambiance, music and a knowledgeable host. We will be back next time we’re in Saratoga Springs.“

“We were there on June 4th Unbeknownst to us it was the start of Belmont week in Saratoga. The city was mobbed with people great to see. But not great on walk in dining. We were told it would be an hour wait because of all the reservations they had. This was not part of our plan of course. We then spotted an outdoor table in the shade. We grabbed it and the rest is history. We were greeted by Eli our server who by the way is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to craft beer. He managed to recommend beers for all three of us that were delicious. Outstanding job Eli. We shared a spicy little pizza and a charcuterie board and both were awesome. What a great experience from start to finish. great beer and food spells a good time and we will be back for more in the future“

“My husband got an order of hot, bone in wings and an order of boneless BBQ wings and both were excellent. We will definitely be coming back for more.“

“This was a happy discovery, I thought it was just pub with an outside music area but it has also a newly renovated restaurant with very good food at the rigth price.

Very fancy place, highly recommend.

p.s. even if the restaurant is near the pub it is very quiet, we could have conversations without any problem.“

“Great cocktails and Zach was cool to talk with!“

“I lived in Saratoga in 1983. The Tin & Lint was one of our favorite watering holes! If memory serves me correctly, Tuesday nights were nickel beer night! We called it, Sticky Floor Night! We'd get all fugged up and then go chase the Skiddy Kitties!! Good times, great memories!“

“Go food to go. I had got a Ruben with house chips, my husband got the factory burger, which is a burger with Swiss cheese and mushrooms and fries. We also got wings. Everything was excellent and ready in a timely fashion. Too bad they are only open early on Sat and Sunday for lunch and not during the week.“

“Beloved and iconic dive bar in the heart of Saratoga. Plenty of booze and character to fill your evening. Attracts a young and vibrant crowd.
Start talking up the bartenders for more colorful antidotes about the local area.

Kid-friendliness: don't bring your kids here, seriously. it's a bar.“

“Small, intimate bar with a mainly jazz playlist and a HUGE martini list and a wide variety of bourbons, Scotch whiskies, and Irish Whiskeys. (Pro tip: keep scrolling the drinks menu PDF). Bartenders know their craft and the area. Shout-out to Freeman on the recommendations for Familiar Creature and Solevo!)“

“I've been going there for years. Great food, atmosphere and bartenders. Wings are THE best in Saratoga!“

“No food. Snowstorm and left my mate outside. Not worth it considering you got lads stumbling out the bar but wont let someone smoking one cig out the bar, while sober.. it’s been a great bar and no reasons to hate until the bouncers couldn’t “let her in cause of one previous bouncer”. get the head bouncer tryna be careful and didn’t get a chance to chat to the lad but hope he’s well and that next one he thinks a bit more on it. Nothing personal love this place great time and great fair prices.“

“Wonderful experience!!

The staff is very friendly and hospitable. Veteran’s get 10% discounts. Food is REALLY good!!

Our family of 5 visited this afternoon 9/27 for lunch (11:40 am). Our 6 year old had a great time golfing and playing the fooseball table while waiting for his turn. Its beautifully set up!! We booked the VIP room (designed to accommodate up to 20, with 11 comfortable bar stools, a bistro table with 5 available tall cushioned chairs, 2 regular height cushioned chairs that are wide to accommodate everyone, and 2 couches on either side of the fooseball table). Not too expensive either. We will definitely add this hot spot to our family outings rotation!!

I personally was super impressed with my order of crispy onion rings, the dipping sauce I liked most, looked like a thousand island in color but had a mild savory bacon flavor. We did order the mozzarella bread which was gone in less than 5 minutes (devoured by my picky eaters).

My husband had the Back Nine Burger. Presentation was good, but once smooshed together for the 1st bite... the juices flowed indicating perfection to the Medium-rare request. The smell was very pleasant and perfectly blended ingredients boosting each with wonderful complimentary flavors of beef, white cheddar and bacon. The fries were exceptional mimicking my home made steak fries made fresh from potatoes (never previously frozen).

***The Blackberry Spritz is phenomenal!!***“

“Great food and service“

“My husband and I have been going to Pennel's ever since we were dating in 1963. This is our every family occasion celebration restaurant. Birthdays, anniversaries, even before holiday gatherings are held at Pennell's. It has been a part of our family tradition for over 60 years, and I just know our children will continue it for years to come. Great meals and memories! Thank you Pennell's.“

“First time at the Merc. Hostess was very nice. Patrick's professionalism was fantastic and not seen enough these days. Brady was our server and his spirit and recommendations were spot on. The food was great and the Sangria was perfect for a Sunday afternoon brunch.... Thank you all...delish!“

“Great atmosphere and great beer“

“We had a retirement party for my husband in the banquet room downstairs. Highly recommend. Very bright, nicely decorated, private, and kid friendly. Joan their event coordinator was absolutely amazing from beginning planning to end. Great to work with. She made the evening so stress free. We hope to have more events in the banquet room.“

“Brunch was fantastic. Great menu--so hard to choose. Husband said his Eggs Benny were prepared perfectly. And I asked for the egg on my Donut BEC to be very well cooked--best fried egg I've ever had. Looking forward to a return trip from Delmar.“

“Peddler bar was such a vibe,the indoor/outdoor seating was nice. The customer service was good,our server had a few slip ups but they were packed that night so,it's expected. I had the bacon jam burger and it was delicious! I was satisfied,it's been a long time since i devoured my meal. Our drinks were ok too.“

“I been bowling for a few years now, and I’m not the best bowler but I have been wanting to upgrade my ball and improve my game. Sara was instrumental in my highest series this week at bowling. She took so much time watching how I bowl, reviewing different balls, measuring my hands, measuring the ball, drilling and allowing me about 45-60 mins to practice to make sure there’s no issues. Awesome experience, I can tell she cared that I got what I wanted and stands by her work. Top shelf service“
