"City Beer Hall in Albany was a great spot for a night out with our party of six. We were seated at a large, comfortable table that easily fit everyone. The food was solid across the board—we ordered pizza, burgers, chicken sandwiches, and a variety of appetizers, and everything came out fresh and well prepared. Drinks were excellent, thanks to Carrie at the bar, who clearly knows her craft. The Family Feud game added a fun, interactive element that kept all six of us entertained. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, especially with the fireplace tucked off to the side. A fun, relaxed place to gather with friends or family."

"The building was very interesting so we stopped for lunch. Our experience was not what we had hoped for. The waitress didn't seem to know the menu and didn't realize what the kitchen was out of. The food was below average bar food."

"We came for lunch so it wasn't that busy. S.O. has Celiac. Waiter wasn't incredibly knowledgable about what drinks were safe, but the cook nailed the food. His burger was brought out without chips (which I could have and were some of the best I've eaten) because they do not have a dedicated fryer. Great food and atmosphere. Everyone was very nice."

"I really like what they've done with the food at CBH. Blue Pizza running their kitchen and putting out great wood-fired pizza, among other things (like some CBH classics) was a great choice. I also enjoy the updates they've made to their cocktail menu, including the more than handful of NA options. This summer they've been doing all you can eat focaccia Fridays, $5 per person for a 90 minute limit -- the focaccia is delicious and comes in very generous serving sizes. My "all you can eat" usually stops at the second slice. Special shout out to their scratch made mozzarella sticks which have a great crispy breading and are served with Melba, which is the only way to eat a mozz stick IMO. I love having CBH in walking distance and have been really impressed with the changes they've been making, kudos to Kurtis and his team!"

"Good food with great service! The burger was very tasty, a huge serving of fries, good beer, and the service was courteous and helpful. I will definitely visit them again when I return to Albany."
