Stopped in at Brown’s Brewing company for a quick bite to eat and a beer. We were seated immediately upstairs. Our server Jeff was great! My Thai Chicken Tacos were delicious and my husband’s burger was cooked perfectly. The beer was good too.

A busy Saturday. Unpaid parking available off street, the back door entrance/important people entrance 😉. Seated timely, brief wait for a very pleasant and welcoming waitress. Food was served hot and fresh. Beers were delightful and also a good selection to choose from. Belly full and satisfied. Definitely a return visit, when I do manage to head this direction.

I recently had the opportunity to dine at Brown's Brewing in Troy, and I must say, the location is absolutely stunning. Overlooking the beautiful Hudson River, the restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating, making it a perfect spot for enjoying a meal with family and friends. The ambiance is inviting, and the seating arrangements are well thought out, providing a comfortable experience.

Now, let's talk about the food and beer – both were exceptional! The menu features a variety of delicious options that cater to different tastes, and the craft beers are some of the best I've had. It's clear that the kitchen and brewing team take pride in their offerings, and it truly enhances the dining experience.

However, I did encounter some issues with the service that I feel compelled to mention. There seemed to be a lack of coordination between the reservation desk and the seating arrangements. Despite seeing several empty tables that were not reserved, we had to wait 45 minutes to be seated. This was frustrating, especially since it appeared that other guests who arrived after us were served much more quickly.

While I want to emphasize that my experience may not reflect the restaurant as a whole, I did feel that the service was somewhat biased. Again, I want to clarify that I am not suggesting any intentional discrimination, but it was disheartening to witness a disparity in service. Regardless, I chose to leave a 20% tip because I wanted to focus on the positive aspects of the meal and leave with good memories.

Overall, while the food and atmosphere at Brown's Brewing are fantastic, the service left something to be desired. Unfortunately, this experience has led me to decide that it will be my last visit. I hope they can address these issues in the future, as the potential for a great dining experience is certainly there.

First timer! A warm and comforting atmosphere when you walk in. Staff are friendly. Beers are solid. I had the “Joann” IPA 🍺 👍🏼. The food was amazing (no just bar food) I had their “Bison 🦬 burger 🍔” (incredible) and my wife had their “Polish plate”. Definitely a must go.

I have been here at least 10 times over the past 10 years and it’s always solid. I seek out their cherry raz beer which is outstanding! The ambiance is great too. Indoors, they have a bar and dining area downstairs and more dining upstairs. I had my engagement dinner and graduation dinner upstairs over in the past and it was great!

Love their outdoor patio area as well. My husband and I came on a Friday evening but still got seated right away outside. We shared the artichoke dip, I had the Moroccan tuna and my hubby had the short rib tacos. 1 star was lost because surprisingly the Moroccan tuna was very bland. It was encrusted in sesame seeds and tasted like…. Nothing. I will admit I don’t know what Moroccan food is “famous” for or what to expect but I just imagined in my head something exotic, maybe a little spicy or something and I didn’t get that.

We’ll definitely be back, I’ll just skip the tuna next time.

Food was amazing. Enjoyed a craft beer from Germany with my meal. Great service and very cool atmosphere.

One of the best Ruebins I've ever had. Incredibly tender beef and flavorful. Stopped on St. Patrick's Day weekend to a packed house. Great server upstairs.

We hosted an event in the Hudson Room with about 30 guests, and it was a fantastic experience! Niki was incredibly helpful with scheduling and planning the event, making everything smooth and stress-free. Maddy, our server, went above and beyond—she was the absolute best! The food and drink selection was impressive, and everything was delicious. This venue is perfect for gatherings, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience!
