Love the place, we go after work and get great service from most of the servers that know us. If they don’t hopefully they know now that we actually tip and shouldnt have our drinks empty. Foods great, lots of choices, as well as drinks.

Service and food have moved into the hit or miss category!
Food and service were always great and now every time we come it’s different?
Different size portions and even things like fries not cooked completely? 3 small fish pieces in their fish and chips the size of a quarter, really?
I hope that get their act together as it was once a good place to come for a good meal at a reasonable prices.
Come on guys empty ketchup bottles on the table!!!

Absolutely by far the worst service I’ve ever had. Took a group of people there for a surprise going party first waited 10 mins to be seated then they told me I didn’t have a reservation which I made earlier in the week. Took 25mins for first drinks to come out. Took an hour for 1 appetizer to come out. Ordered a personal pizza to go took 35mins to get it was cold not fully cooked. Sent it back with hostess to get cooked again. Had to ask for it 25mins later and it came out even colder than before and not fully cooked. There was just issue after issue. WE NEVER EVER RETURN! I WAS SO EMBRASSED for bringing friends and co-​workers to this ESTABLISHMENT! Never Again!

A long time staple in troy. 20 plus years I would guess. What you see is what you get. Not great, not horrible. a 1 pm lunch on a Thursday was a semi fiasco. The server was nice enough, but everytime anything was ordered, a different excuse was needed. Kitchen was slow, short of help, beer tap needed to be changed, etc. good thing I had time for a long lunch!

Took over 50 mimues to get our lunch, waitress was not attentive. Very pricey for mediocre at best burger. No wonder why I never heard about this place before and it been around.

The atmosphere provides a great old town and sports feeling. I enjoyed the food and portion size was excellent. Only downfall is that it took a while to get our food but it was delicious. Will eat here again when I’m back in town.

Worst service ever. Lots of open tables, but wouldn’t seat us, so we waited at the bar, many more tables opened up but still they didn’t seat us. All the while clean silverware sat at the hostess table in the dishwasher container… Very dirty

Great food, great service. Lisa, the manager, is awesome! So are Gabby and Sara H. They had a live band once, they played like 2 songs and left. What’s up with that?

The thin pizza wasn’t thin and not so good, very sloppy, tasteless and under cooked, also got pretzels that you can’t mess up. The place is cool inside with lots of tv’s and plenty of seating, I’m trying to be positive. But it just wasn’t that good, after drinking my first beer the waitress didn’t come over for a least 8minutes felt like forever, I was thirsty, then it came time to pay the check and she disappeared again, I hate that. So for me it wasn’t that great of an experience.

I’ve been here a few times just for drinks but last night was the first time I’ve ever sat down for dinner. We both got salads (how hard is it to mess up a salad!?) Well, it was great. The dinner salads are huge and only $ 9.99. They were busy but the service was great and the food was good too.

Ordered 2 appetizers and 3 kid meals. It took over 45 minutes. We asked to have the nachos taken off the bill but it was thrown at us with all of the other carry out items as we were trying to leave only to find as we are driving out of the Parking lot salsa is everywhere and soaked through the pizza box and now on to my clothes!
Manager claimed it was so busy although ¾ of tables were empty.
Should have gone to BW’s!!!

Stopped by for a couple of drinks after visiting Airtime Trampoline Park. When we got there, they took an extremely long time (almost 10 mins) to seat us even though there were empty tables. I ordered a Flaming Spanish Coffee, and when it arrived I was extremely unhappy to find out that the cocktail was not served «flaming» and that the bartender simply flambéed it during preparation. Personally it is my belief that if you advertise something as flaming (the reason I ordered the drink to begin with), then it should be served flaming.

The staff at Joe Kools is always pleasant and attentive. I’ve always had a great time there. They have a great beer list and a solid menu. The sandwiches are huge. I especially like this as a choice for group lunches and celebrations. They can accommodate large groups and parking is abundant and convenient.

So, this is my first Unilocal review…
I came here tonight to support a friends fundraiser, it was my first time here. I looked up the place earlier and the top results were rave reviews about the steak quesadillas. And they were right, every bite was perfect! Service was quick, friendly and efficient. Overall great experience!
I eat out all the time, I just don’t take the time to discuss it on social media. This place is worth it. The bar is set here people!

I like it hot! Buffalo Chicken Sandwich that is.
I had been here in the past and forgot to review (duh).
On this trip I had the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. I was given four choices of flavor, mild, medium, hot, and insanity. The peer pressure from my workmates talked me into the insanity. Okay, it had to be the weakest super hot sauce I have ever had. It actually tasted like it was mild. It was a good sandwich. Crispy chicken, lettuce, ranch dressing, one of my favorites. The fries were good, average and hot.
The service was fast in that we had about fifteen people there. The only reason for three stars is the prices. I had a glass of water with the super hot sandwich and I still paid $ 12.00 with a tip.

They have a big list of beer on the table. I picked one at random and asked the waitress what it was. She didn’t know so I said I’d try it. She brought it back and it was NA beer. I told her how unhappy I was and she charged me for it anyway. What kind of crappy bar lists NA beer with their microbrews?
Snoopy would be so pissed off if he found out what they’re doing to his name.

Decent enough place if you’r ein a pinch for some food and drinks.
The irish nachos are stellar, highly recommend those.
The buffalo chicken sandwiches /​wraps… are not. They’re chicken, but it’s not really buffalo sauce, and it’s not even really all that hot, so it’s pretty much an annoying let down.
Lots of tvs, good beer selection on tap and in bottles, so… like I said, it’s a decent enough place if you’re in the area and looking to grab a bite to eat and have a drink or two. I wouldn’t make a destination of it.
