Low-quality beer, rude staff, overpriced. Stay away and try out the many better breweries in the area!
I was on the annual Wing-Walk. I chose this as my number 1 wing.
Great venue, but wow. Terrible staff. Slow, slow, and slow. Tried to get a tv tuned to a Yankee game and you’d think they didn’t know how to work a tv.
Great patio for some late September MNF
The atmosphere is decent. The drinks are moderately priced. I had a trucking truffle melt grilled cheese and I thought the sandwich tasted okay. It feels like drunk people food made to offer more in texture than flavor. My thoughts were confirmed when I had the fries. They were extremely salty and hard to enjoy perhaps I hadn't had enough to drink to get the proper experience? This was on September 13th coyote ugly night. The chef was nice though
My daughter and I went to Frog Alley on a Tuesday night for the line dancing. I was immediately impressed with the large outdoor seating area and spacious interior that included a big dance area. Unfamiliar with their brews, I asked the bartender, Sawyer, for help selecting. She made a few suggestions and provided samples. Since I’m an older woman and very short, I usually get ignored when I step up to a bar, but she came over right away and was super friendly so I felt very comfortable going back to her for a refill. We enjoyed the dance lessons followed by open dancing until 10pm. It was terrific to see the dance floor packed with people of all ages and abilities on a weeknight. The music was lively and diverse. Needless to say, we had a lot of fun and will definitely be back.
Great beer selection, great atmosphere.
Beer is great. Servers are friendly, just get to know them. Location? Well…it’s Schenectady but they do a great job considering.
The food!!! I was so thrilled to see the grilled cheese options. Delicious and super high quality ingredients. Nicest person ever cooking also-I think he was the owner? This place and the grilled cheese made my day. So happy to have stumbled upon it.
The outdoor patio and live music were great. Dark beers: The porter and Charlie Brown (?) were good. I saw one of the bartenders eating something amazing and she gave me the details. I ordered it at the window that used to serve brick oven pizza, and it was an off menu item. Not sure if they’ll do it every day but definitely order the buffalo chicken fries. Comes topped with fresh, diced jalapeños, tomatoes, and shredded lettuce, and a generous amount of blue cheese or ranch and buffalo sauce. And don’t let the size fool you, that’s a whole entire meal.

Big place, good atmosphere. Wish they offered mixed 4 packs of beer. Great place to check out, and part of the 2025 Passport series.
Officially my second favorite frog themed brewery!
Awesome location, tons of great food options, a wide range of beverages of all types available, great music lineup now and upcoming.
Josh was a fantastic bartender that helped me out quick and answered all my questions.
Also their short glass QR frog is awesome!
I went during the weekday and had 3 beers. I was charged $46. I don't understand. I tried to call to dispute, but no one picked up the phone. I tried calling several times. Absolutely terrible communication. I would have to walk in to dispute.
Frog Alley Brewery was hands-down the perfect venue for our wedding (6/14). It’s trendy, industrial, and has so much character—which made it a stunning backdrop for our wedding decor. But what really set it apart was the incredible staff, especially Abbey, our coordinator. She was responsive, accommodating, and truly cared about making our day everything we dreamed of.
Anytime we wanted to meet or needed clarification, she was there. Abbey and Charley worked with us to create a custom signature cocktail (a spicy hot honey blackberry margarita!) and ensured the bar service was top-tier. The flow of the event, the vendor coordination, the layout—it all came together flawlessly. We had zero stress and felt completely taken care of. I can’t recommend them enough if you’re looking for a venue with personality and a team that actually shows up for you💖
I showed up to a country show after work, paid the door cover charge, walked in and was enjoying the music, while in line at the bar to get a drink. At this time I was approached by the lady who was working the door, who handed me my money back and told me I had to leave with no explanation. About a week later some dude claiming to be the owner told me I am unwelcome there again with no explanation, I didn't show up drunk, I have never been in a fight at frog alley and have no idea what seems to be their problem... but there's always elsewhere to spend your money.
