Getting into the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest female drummer. Such a wonderful night of entertainment and great food. The service was excellent!“

“Love it there! My favorite bar in Watervliet“

“Outstanding.“

“Anywhere I go, when it says jumbo wings, thats what I look for. The wings were regular size, but good. Rest of the food was great too. But this is about Alix the bartender. Place was really busy. She kept her head on, managed conversation with everyone. Attentive and didnt look stressed at all. Awesome job.“

“Came here specifically for the garbage plate. Left with so much more.

The guys at the bar along with the bartender convinced us to try the melba sauce and wings.

Absolutely did not disappoint. If you're a Rochester native in the area like me, make a stop here.“

“We hosted an amazing company holiday party at Loch & Quay. Great food, amazing staff, hopefully they can accommodate us again next year.“

“Always have a good time here! Recommend this place 100% amazing service here💗“

“We love the RB, going there, the music, etc. Food is very good, great pizza. Recently did take out of 2 melts, delicious. Couple things though... 1) really really irks me when anyone i'm paying doesnt say thanks, thank you, etc. It was take out, I even gave a nice tip. Say thank you - goes a long way. 2) fries were Ok, not great, pasty and just eh, 3) salad greens were disgusting. Inedible, tasted like they were in dirty water, and 4) parking lot was thrashed. this was sat, so cleanup from friday should've been done. Empty bottles, cans, etc. Gross. We'll go back, but it will be a bit.“

“We order lunch weekly at our office. Kris’ is absolutely incredible. The food, staff and delivery are all AMAZING!!! 5 stars!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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.“

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

“My friend and I ate there over the weekend and had yet another great experience. Attentive waitresses, generous portions served hot and fresh and didn’t break the bank. We love the casual feel and while small, you don’t feel too closed in. Also, while our food came out quickly, we weren’t rushed to leave and could spend time enjoying ourselves.“

“Tonight was mine and my fiancé first night going here. The staff was nothing short of amazing. The food was phenomenal. Everyone was so polite and very attentive. Thanks for a great dinner. Most importantly thanks to your amazing staff.“

“Parking is usually easy to find on the street when I stop here. The bar has a clean and inviting atmosphere. The bartenders are friendly and attentive. The cocktails are always good. I love that they have one or two hard ciders on tap. There are plenty of beers on tap to choose from.
The bar food is always spot on. Fresh and tasty. Plus I enjoy the rotating seasonal food offerings.
There are games upstairs to explore.
In cooperating weather the patio is nice to take advantage of.
I enjoy meeting my friends here for some good laughs, drinks and food.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Hostess is the best. And food was of course great. Party of 10+ to watch sabres ... a bit last minute, post-graduation. I stopped by mid-afternoon and the hostess set aside a table, put the 'reserved' label on it and told me I could enjoy the lovely day outside, that she was holding it for me. and the sabres won! thank you mcgeary's!!!“

“Believe the hype! Casey Finn’s delivers for service, the finest Miller High Life and Jameson whiskey, and I heard that the Ruebens on St Patrick’s Day are the jam.Was sincerely hoping for the rumored bartender vs customer fight (see review from a few years ago), but despite a brief genuine moment of concern (“are you ladies lost?”), we made friends and will be back.“

“uwielbiam to miejsce i gorąco polecam ,przemiła obsługa i fantastyczne jedzenie“

“I ordered some half trays of food from the Ravenswood catering menu for a family gathering. The food was amazing!!! So delicious and boxed so well for easy and careful transport! The staff was very friendly. I will definitely be doing it again! Highly recommend. 💕“

“Great atmosphere and delicious food and cocktails“

“Was there with the gf last night we both got the cowboy mac and moose sticks was the best mac and cheese I’ve had yet“

“Just had date night and have absolutely nothing bad to say! Brian served us and he was knowledgeable and knew the menu well. The food was cooked professionally, there was no feeling of “another chain restaurant “ it was delicious! Cocktails were nice, presentation was good. It was everything we needed tonight!“

“Honestly, the best place in its category I've been to in years. The appetizers were well prepared and delicious, the Pizza was PIPING hot and LOADED with toppings! Good selection of brews, was a great evening for the whole family. Thank you Villa Valenti!“

“Our son was in a concert at the Cohoes City Music Hall so we went to Spindles for dinner. My son, husband, and I all had a wonderful dinner. We tried the fried deviled eggs and they were delicious. I also highly recommend any dish served with their risotto! It was the best I have had. Spindles is worth checking out!“

“Prompt, friendly service. OUTSTANDING food. Fair warning, the mozzarella logs are enough for the table 😂👌. Seriously delicious. Would recommend. Unpretentious proper pub fare. Little things stood out, romaine on the BLT 👍, asked for a to go box, the server brought a separate container for the au jus. The onion soup wasn't available because they were MAKING it, as opposed to opening a tin or packet. That speaks volumes. To the good.“

“this is very very bad service and not response and bakwas“

“Out of town working, read the reviews, previous review guy walks out because Fox News was on. I was all in. I wish there was more of him around. makes my visit that much more enjoyable . if you are looking for food this is the wrong place. If you’re looking to drink and hang out and have a good time, this is it. Darts pool, Jamison and Guinness and other beers but no Bud Light. Locals are extremely friendly ,met several new friends on the first visit“

“Every bartender is chill, good music, great drinks, lovely patio space! Open in the afternoon so I have somewhere to chill and have a drink outside, open late nights so I can dance, sing, and party. Pool table and darts as a bonus. A staple on Lark street for sure!“

“I recently visited LionHeart Pub Uptown and had one of the best experiences I’ve had at a bar in a long time. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, lively, and comfortable. Whether you’re stopping in for a drink after work or planning to spend the evening with friends, this place has a great energy that makes you want to stay.

The biggest reason my visit stood out was the bartender, Dash. It’s rare to come across someone who works as hard as he does while still making every customer feel like they’re getting personal attention. Even when the bar was busy, he stayed organized, kept drinks coming quickly, and made sure everyone was taken care of. He has a great attitude, knows the menu well, and clearly takes pride in what he does.

One thing that really impressed me is that Dash is great about Bar Bucks. He understands the program, applies them without any hassle, and makes the process smooth and easy. It’s refreshing to have a bartender who values customer loyalty and doesn’t make you feel like using rewards is an inconvenience. That level of professionalism goes a long way and makes customers want to come back.

The drinks were made well, the service was fast, and the overall vibe of LionHeart Uptown was excellent. The staff worked together efficiently, the place was clean, and it was easy to see why so many people choose this location. Good service can make or break a night out, and Dash definitely made ours a great one.

If you’re looking for a neighborhood bar with a fun atmosphere, quality drinks, and outstanding service, I highly recommend LionHeart Uptown. Ask for Dash if he’s working—you’ll be in good hands. His attention to detail, friendly personality, and willingness to make sure customers have a great experience really set him apart. I’ll definitely be back and would recommend this place to anyone looking for excellent service and a great night out.“

“This is in a fairly quiet part of the warehouse district of Albany. Just north of downtown, it is easily accessed via major roads. I only samplt some.of the beer selections, but the food looks ok, at a reasonable price.
Loved the open and casual atmosphere! The bartender was knowledgeable and friendly. Plenty of regulars which made it seem very f friendly! Worth a visit!!“

“Our server was fantastic - food done as we ordered and quite delicious. BUT she was so overworked it took over 20 minutes to get our check and then she hardly had time to get payment. She did all she could but it was a lot for just two servers in the dining room.“

“Good vibes great service Good food awesome drinks great place to hang with friends and have some good times“
