Graney's Stout

I’ve been going here for a few years and I can tell you my favorite thing about this place if the staff- from the bartenders to the bouncers. During the day it’s a nice quiet place to get good food without emptying out your wallet. And at night if when the fun happens. Tuesday’s are collage night so around 11 the DJ comes on and the place starts to get packed. Friday nights you’ll get a better more mature crowd but it’s still shoulder to shoulder. The best time to go at night is on a Saturday night. Usually stays under 40 people and occasionally you’ll get a band or DJ playing rock or country music.

One of the best sports bars in Albany! Lots of room to spread out while you order delicious food and enjoy the game. Has a couple of dart boards, a TouchTones jukebox and a full bar featuring your favorite drinks. The staff is excellent and make the experience most pleasant. During the week, you may get lucky enough to catch one of their trivia nights. Well worth the visit! On average, portions will be large! Just order the large Loaded Nachos and out will come the Noah's Arc of nachos. If you like some spice, I personally recommend the pizza fries. You can't go wrong with the wings or the assortment of other appetizers. Order and enjoy!

On the plus side, the bartender was cute, friendly and provided pretty good service. Beer selection was decent. Soundtrack was loud and boisterous even on Saturday at lunch but the tunes were good so consider that a plus. Food was meh at best, the black and blue burger has nothing except what was described on the menu (ie, no lettuce, tomato or other things you'd think any burger would have) and was wicked greasy and salty.. Heart attack in the making. The bacon was soggy, etc
