Reviews for Troy Beer Garden in Troy, NY
I was worried going in that I would have a "sub par" dining experience, seeing as how most are probably here for the drinks and... I don't drink. And I hate to say that many of those fears were realized. The service and atmosphere was immaculate, but the foodneeds some work. I had the Haddock Ruben and the Not So Stormy for a drink. The drink was fantastic as expected, but theHaddock was not the same. Remember that sandwhiches and fries are finger food, and when i took a bite into the sandwhich, a lotof the slaw spilled out. It also started soaking into the bread quite rapidly. The fries' seasoning also stuck to my hands quitestubbornly to my hands, making it annoying to eat at times. The flavors were there in full force, but unfortunately the eatingexperience was subpar. I think with a little work, the recepies could be flawless. But that could be seen as counterproductivewhen appetizers and drinks are most likely their top sellers. So the owners and chefs can take my critiques however they want. Read more
Attended a private party upstairs in the Berlin room. Had a really cool vibe to it. Interesting art on the walls and unique... furniture pieces. Small tables and couches to sit down. Low lighting. Passed Hors D'oeuvres were really good. Staff was greatand super accommodating. Bar tenders were awesome. Great space overall. Private entrance on the side of the building. Read more
Awesome beers. The ambiance is very different from your typical beer. All. Plants everywhere. No TV. The service is excellent.... And did I mention the beers are awesome. Try the sour IPA, number 10. Read more
Cute location near downtown Troy. We came on a Saturday around 5-6 pm and there was plenty of seating both indoors and outdoor... on the patio. The regular drinks are priced a little high, and the non-alcoholic drinks are overpriced for what you aregetting. Worth it for a couple of drinks but wouldn’t come back here regularly as the menu only seems to shift with eachseason rather than on a more regular cadence. Tables outside for two people are spaced too close to each other, not allowingfor much privacy. The couch to the far left end of the patio does not have a back to it which can get exhausting to sit at for along time. Be careful when ordering food to your table, as we’ve overheard multiple people over multiple visits having theirorders never go through or show up in the system. Always double check that the kitchen has received your order - seems likesomething the restaurant should look into fixing. Ordering drinks at the bar is okay but it takes away from the calm vibes ofthe place, or at least what it’s trying to be. If this was the old cash bar Beer Garden that would make sense, but would loveit if drinks were also able to be placed via waiter or through some other means. Overall, good to go once or twice butdoesn’t offer a whole lot of enticement for repeat customers. Read more
Very nice bar, great selection of local beers, something around 20 beers on tap. We only get drinks there, so can't comment on... it. Of course the atmosphere with plants is really great. Read more
So happy we found this spot on the Happy Cow app! The ambiance was great, sweet music lots of plants and amazing food and... drinks! I order the Pom Collins drink and my husband had the all agave margarita. Both were delicious! For food we ordered theMac n cheese, grazing board, tacos, chick’s wings, chocolate fry bread and the general Taos cauliflower. Everything was great!Wish we lived closer, we would be regulars ??

Love this place! Beautiful ambiance, amazing place to grab a drink any day or night. There are plants all around (and they sell... plants as well). The draft selections are delicious and unique. The menu is plant based with some unique options. Really specialspot. Great outdoor seating space too. Read more
Friendly service, good beer (small default pours in Mason jars)... we did not go for food so can't comment, but the ambiance is... very vibrant and full of real plants. We loved it! I had trouble finding parking on the street but later discovered that thereare two private business parking lots that allow beer garden customers to park after hours- definite bonus for a destination introy!
