50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Waterford

“the food and portion size was amazing“

“Always awesome food. Me and my fiancé stopped by before a show last night and I got the Buffmac Crunchwrap and I need more of those in my life. Will always be back to put a checklist next to everything on the menu.“

“Best Boba tea I’ve ever tasted. They also sell really good cakes very airy and light and The perfect consistency of sugar to cake ratio if not overly sweet so you don’t get that weird sugar flavor in your mouth. Also they do have a very cute set up of cakes on display that they sell. I come here a lot and I definitely will be back more times I’ve already got a couple free tease. That’s how many times I’ve been here.“

“So delicious! Even the carnivores love the food🤤“

“Naughter’s is a great place to get breakfast the morning after a night out, for first date, catching up with an old friend, or brunch with your mom.

Everything is priced well and the food is always so yummy. I love looking around at all the art while waiting for the food to come to the table.

Favorite breakfast spot in Troy!!“

“My phone wouldn't let.me scan the bar code to complete the survey yesterday but a review is definitely necessary. First time at.the Troy location. I had honey bbq wings for an appetizer. Great stuff. And for an entree was ribs, brisket with sides of chili and salad. A came.with cornbread Everything was spectacular, one of the.best meals I have had. Bacon in the chili and the house dressing being bbq ranch were nice touches. My server Alison deserves a lot of credit too. Pleasant person, hard working, and made great suggestions when I asked. Alison and the food made this a great experience. Highly recommended and I will be back.“

“I ordered a Chicken Chimichanga and my husband ordered a burrito. Both were delish !“

“How do you keep warm and in good spirits up in the crown of Maine, Aroostook county? Well...."New Scotland spirits"! Helderberg winter wheat whiskey.. 68W American corn whiskey.... or a nice bottle of Helderberg Vodka. Thanks so much for a taste of Home. Happy New year!“

“Love this venue and their support for our local bands! Crowd always passes the vibe check, bartenders are attentive and friendly esp if you're cool with them (tip your bartenders!!), and had amazing fun watching FLATWOUNDS play in this kickoff to their tour in Canada/US, with Lip Critic and Bejalvin. Best lineup. Check this venue out.“

“delicious food and amazing atmosphere. I love this oasis, it is a lively place with elegance and still peaceful for business meetings“

“First time visitor. Food was delicious. Staff was attentive, friendly. Would absolutely return to try more options. The lunch buffet is a step above others in the area.“

“I now live in Texas , but every trip to Albany includes a trip to Miranda’s deli. The food is off the charts. The smoking hot chick who makes the sandwiches and the special-needs guy who runs the register are both Fantastic. There aren’t enough stars to rate this place.“

“The works and Nutty monkey bowl was the absolute best! When I say delish, that’s exactly what I mean. I 100% recommend any one of these as well as the place for many other reasons! Enjoy when you make it there.“

“Baristas are friendly and efficient, and the coffee never disappoints.“

“I just ordered take out from there and everything was phenomenal. My family was pleasantly pleased as well.“

“Looking for a spot to get a quick lunch. My son suggested this place. Food was great, service was quick, friendly staff and very reasonable. Definitely looking forward to a return visit!“

“The specials are usually really good, best I've had was the churro cake. The cookies are good, I prefer usually to go for the minis because of the price but also they're also baked through more than the larger cookies.
Heads up if you order through doordash, let an employee know because your order will not be on the display screen of waiting orders.
Biscoff cheesecake was insanely good
Tried the Dubai Chocolate Brownie, was really good, just can't justify the price for the Dubai Chocolate craze.“

“Nighthawks is THE BEST spot in Troy. My husband and I adore this place. They make the best omelette I’ve ever had and my husband is in love with their burgers. 100000/10 recommend. Staff are amazing and overall experience is magical!! Wow wow wow.“

“Food was too tier! Will absolutely be going back“

“Food is absolutely incredible and the service is even better. I recommend 3 Brothers to everyone.“

“I have always had a wonderful experience when getting their ice cream whether by myself or with my children! I look forward to many years of making memories with my family eating delicious ice cream in a beautiful setting!“

“its triple so nice！“

“Friendly service. The food exceeded our expectations, it was delicious from appetizers to desserts. the hand crafted sauces are definitely a highlight. the food doesn't need sauces, but they definitely add a nice pop of flavor. we had : Yuca frita Arepitas con queso guda Arepa Pernil Cachapa Carne Mechada Quesillo de coco Crème Brulè cheescake Mango juice and a pineapple soda“

“Amazing food and amazing owner!!!! Highly recommend 🥰“

“I visit there about 4-5 times a month to grab a bite to eat, I usually get the lasagna dinner or their hot subs. Hands down the best in the area. The staff is always friendly and helpful. when in the area a must stop it won't disappoint!“

“We visited here at the end of a bicycle ride from Manhattan and had the best time!! The bartender was fabulous, we even learned about a new drink (to us) called Fernet-Branca. We so enjoyed meeting Serena, King, and Edward - so if you're out there hit us up! It was a magical evening 🥰“

“Place is on the smaller side however quaint and an intimate setting would be a great place for a breakfast date . Owners/ staff very pleasant food was very tasty and also the staff sent me off with a complimentary brownie. I look forward to exploring their menue further. Couple nice seating options outside.“

“Jessica was absolutely amazing to work with for our daughter’s wedding. Helping us out with NYS wines, to offering amazing ciders and cocktails for the wedding. The day of the wedding their customer service was top notched. I highly recommend them for any special event you may want to have.“

“Great food and great staff and service.“

“A jewel of a discovery. When we found other establishments on New Scotland Ave closing their dining rooms by 9pm on a Saturday night, SakeCafe was graciously open, serving delicious food (we tried a little of everything from sushi to Udon) and with the best tableside service I've experienced in literally years. Oh, and the hot sake is splendid and at $6/bottle an unbeatable value. SO happy to know they are just around the corner. Sorry bao buns place but you lose, SakeCafe wins.“

“Liza's is one of my favorites for lunch in downtown Troy. The menu has healthy and tasty choices made with fresh ingredients. Service has always been friendly and fast, yet you will not be rushed as you sit and savor the dishes. The owner Liza who has created the menu can usually be found working at the restaurant, making sure you will return again. And I suggest you do return, so you can sample her creativity in the kitchen!“

“An excellent selection of hard to find Eastern European beers and wines! Plus we tried some local brews. Bartender very good at helping us choose what we’d like. Relaxed atmosphere- we’ve eaten both inside and out in the garden, which is hidden from the street and a nice surprise to find after walking through the black gates. We had appetizers, burgers and salads- all were very good.“

“That pork belly bao is a travesty for being that small but being the same price as the chicken sando it’s ridiculous honestly,Lucky corner has one three times the size for cheaper 6 bucks is crazy for that one bite slider portion to price is trash here but the food is really good“

“had a lovely lunch there and enjoyed all the amazing food and drinks. Definitely recommend“

“I enjoyed a great family brunch with my Aunt. Excellent food and coffee options. Will definitely return. Highly recommend.“

“HANDS DOWN BEST BAGELS IN THE CAPITAL DISTRICT!!!!!“

“Very nice place and people with very good food!“

“Delicious ice cream in a familiar farm stand setting. Hard and soft ice cream available in a variety of delivery methods. I have a rule of thumb for ice cream: I need to see a cow grazing from the delivery/pick-up window. This place satisfies this rule. Friendly staff“

“All the employees at Jack’s are super good looking, hands down — I enjoyed my time there with my Indian brothers way too much. 😏 The vibes were immaculate, the staff was serving looks and service, and I was fully ready to order seconds… if you know what I mean.
The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because someone hyped up their chicken biryani and they didn’t have it. Me and my Indian brothers had to bounce over to Indian Flame instead — and honestly, that biryani was delicious as hell. But Jack’s still got me thirsting for a return visit.
Leaving this review for Jack’s Drive In in Wynantskill. Come for the food, stay for the fine employees. Your favorite gay Indian foodie approves… with a side of spice. 🔥🍛”“

“Best food around. I’ve been getting food from here weekly since before the pandemic started. I highly recommend this restaurant. The workers are the sweetest, the prices are great, the food is high quality and delicious!“

“I’ve found my “Cheers!”
Yes I’m showing my age with that reference - 80’s babyyyy - but this dive bar is IT!
This place has some of the best cocktails I’ve had, easily rivaling overpriced drinks in Manhattan - shout out to Tom!
If you have no idea what you want to drink, no worries, talk to the bartenders, they’ll help you, might even whip up something creative on the spot.
Monday nights belong to Brian the bacon guru, baby I eat pork again when I roll up here on a Monday (I pay for it later too, well worth it, lol).

The patrons are some of the most diverse and amazingly chill group of folks I’ve encountered since moving from the multicultural NYC life - Bx to be exact - to the parts up yonder.

The owner, Joe, is one of the kindest humans, and honey like attracts like, because his team definitely match his energy, they are hands down, some of my favorite people up here! Special shout out to Victoria & Corrine ❤️!

When you go, chill hard, enjoy big, and tip OD!“

“My partner and I had a great time before heading over to the elks club for swing dance night.

Classic pub style seating and experience. Head up to the bar to order your food and drink, head back with your drinks and wait for the food. Theres tvs showing multiple different games but if youre not there for that the rest of the interior is the perfect astethic for a comfy night at the local bar.

The pretzel sticks were amazing and I need more.“

“Ever changing, like the seasons, Forts Ferry Farm offers their produce and baked goods at local farmers' markets and occasionally, at pop-up markets on site. The taste of any of their produce reminds one of the reason to shop at local farms. The salted chocolate chip cookies ain't bad either. Look for habanada peppers, the fruitiness of a habanero without the heat. There's a farm store in Hudson, NY.“

“Grate spot to hang before and after shows at Lark Hall (~);}“

“My husband and I got married at Lucas. We had the time of our lives and can’t believe how amazing the day went. From first tour and booking to packing everything up and leaving, Maeve was absolutely phenomenal to work with. She was smart, easy to work with, responsive, attentive, understanding, and just a calm and collected figure the day of the wedding. We rented all of Lucas and the Garden for our wedding. We did brunch so there was a lot of logistics I was quite worried about since the timeline in the morning was so tight to do an 11am ceremony.

Everything went off without a hitch, we had to delay the start time by 5 additional minutes and that was no problem for them! The venue was decorated beautifully. The front lounge is so sunny in the morning and the space felt so warm and welcoming when people first came in. It was raining on our wedding (good luck for us!) so it was so nice having people walk into this beautiful cozy space. The garden is picture perfect. It felt like a dream. It is not a big space so the space would not work for a larger wedding. The garden is where both our ceremony and our reception took place. The staff flipped the space during cocktail hour (by the bar and front area). When they flipped the space, they made sure to include the specials I requested like putting the centerpieces, program, and name plates out. Maeve even realized I forgot table numbers and quickly went in the back and made some for my 5 tables so guests knew where they were going.

We had a few extras that were around the venue in lieu of dancing and all the little nooks and crannies helped fill the space. For events, they have the buffet on the back wall which was perfect and out of the way. The bar was always packed, and everyone said the bartenders were friendly and fast—just what you want at a wedding. I literally had no complaints from any of my guests and everyone raved about the spot. Most of the guests had never been there and couldn’t believe how different and unique Lucas was from traditional event spaces.
The venue was able to play my playlist over their Bluetooth speakers, Maeve helped control the music for us walking down the aisle and the recessional. The venue was so prepared, it was obvious that they had done several events and are true event professionals. They even let us bring everything the night before and put our flowers in cold storage for us overnight to keep them fresh. We had a few large and bulky items and I had lots of bins. I was worried they weren’t going to have the room to store stuff overnight but Maeve took everything to the back and told me that it wouldn’t be a problem which was a huge relief. I created my own flower centerpieces and was really worried that they would die from Friday to Saturday if they weren’t put somewhere safe. My last rave will be about how unlike traditional wedding venues, Lucas doesn’t nickel and dime you. There were no stupid BS fees like napkin overuse fee, coffee creamer fee, set up fee, Bluetooth speaker fee, etc. The contract stated everything and that is what we were charged which is amazing because most venue I feel look at weddings like a cash grab and Lucas didn’t do that.

Only small con is that one of my guests said the roof in the garden was leaking in one small spot so I would recommend that someone looks at the roof ASAP before we start getting summer thunderstorms.“

“Great spot and awesome staff!!“

“We went here on a late Sunday night. You order at the window and there are cute plenty of seating areas outside.
I believe the owner or manager was there training a new employee we were there. He was nice and patient with us. Service was good.

We thought the ice cream were hit or miss.“

“Fantastic experience earlier this month having Sunday Brunch with my son and our American cousins at Lost & Found. This place is great! The real America, in Albany, away from the well-beaten tourist tracks. Friendly service, great menu, tasty food, and the proprietor is a gent - even let us get group photos on the stage as he hadn’t a band at the time! It was a wet Sunday but we just had a great family get together inside. Not that far from the city centre and worth finding. Very good value as well.“

“Love it there! My favorite bar in Watervliet“

“Phenomenal food and drink! Look forward to every time we’re able to come grab a bite at The Ruck!“
