Great friendly pub with interesting choices as well as typical fare. Â The grilled salmon BLT is just delicious, and also a great bargain for such a generous portion. Â The fries, wings, and onion rings are always cooked perfectly. Occasionally they have a seafood night and it's the best around...shrimp, Alaskan king crab, scallops, and clams. Yum. The staff are always attentive and friendly.

I swear, this place has the most consistent kitchen I've experienced in Troy. Every time, the food is perfectly prepared and very tasty.
I like the burgers, the PB&J Wings (UNGHHHHH!), and the Pesto Wings. Everyone who I have taken there has agreed that it is a very good meal, nothing mind blowing (other than the PB&J wings) but always enjoyed. Â Also, the Guinness is always well poured and the lines seem clean. Sitting outside makes it one of the most pleasurable places to dine in the Collar City.
One time, the first nice day of spring, we went there and waited almost an hour for food, but that was just a fluke, never experienced it since.
Support this business, we need more like them in Troy!
HOLY MOLY!!! This place's food was out of this world! First of all the waitress I had was so beautiful and nice (she's actually a person friend of ours) I would've had a nice time if it was just decent pub food.
Yet, I was so pleasantly surprised. I got the award winning peanut butter and jelly wings, and I was a skeptic. They were freaking delicious. Its actuallly a spicy Thai peanut sauce with raspberry drizzle. Sweet, spicy, hot all wrapped up on a deliciously crispy chicken wing. They were out of this world. Then, the burger was a standard pub burger, but the size and quality rivaled some of the best pubs I've been to. It was seasoned and put together with some pride, not just slapped on a bun. Onions were carmelized well and the fries were done perfectly. 2 tall beers and small one and I was still in and out for around 25 bucks.
After a horrible round of golf, this place sure hit the spot. I may have a new watering hole.
Trust me, the friendship had nothing to do with the 5 star rating. If its good I'll tell you it is, and if it sucks, I'll let you know that as well. The place isn't much for ambiance but I'm there for the food. There is also quite a large outside eating area. Most of it is covered and there are a few tables that aren't under the canopy. They put their best food food forward and I think this place is tops so far for pub food!
Its your standard tavern fare so don't go expecting anything more and you may not be disappointed. The food isn't terrible its just nothing to brag about. I got the Bacon Cheeseburger soup because it sounded interesting. It really lived up to the name complete with french fries IN IT. To me this was very weird and not exactly what I'm looking for in a soup. Points for originality though. I ordered the Garlic Parm wings for dinner and my gf got the Grip and Rip which is their 1 lb char broiled burger. The wings were plain except for clumps of garlic and cheese thrown on top. The burger mostly tasted like char. Didn't really bother me but my gf didn't enjoy tasting a old grill. The menu was very limited. Pretty much wings and sandwiches with a few dinners that didn't seem all that appealing. The interior looked nice as though it had been redone recently. We sat in a back room where there was a poker game going on at one of the tables which also seemed kinda odd.
Review Source:This place is the best, food is great, drinks are great. Â A lot of unique items on the menu to try, like PB&J wings, which are one of my favorites. Â Went here a few weeks ago, my brother got the cheeseburger soup and he liked that as well. Â Everything here is good, there are not many good places in troy, this is one of the few.
Review Source:The Park Pub is the full service restaurant and bar operated on the premises of the Frear Park golf course and ice skating rink. The concession stand inside the rink warming area is also operated by Park Pub. The Park Pub is the official spot at Frear Park to grab a beer. The unofficial spot is up at the 5th hole (in the darkness of night) for all those sneaky kiddies.
Way back in the day (1980s), this restaurant was under a different name and management (I think Louie's). My aunt used to hang out here and always raved about how great the pizza was. I spent countless hours as a youngin' skating and playing hockey at the Frear Park ice rink, which was like being inside a big ice box (Albany Academy's rink was just as cold). After hockey, I got to enjoy the great pizza served here, something I looked forward to.
Since several of my FB friends are fans of Park Pub Restaurant, I decided to stop by for a Friday night dinner, figuring this place has to be pretty good.
The inside of this casual restaurant looks very nice with hardwood floors in the lounge area to the left and a dining room to the right. The cozy lounge area has seating at the bar and a few regular and high top tables. There are several small flatscreen TVs in the lounge, a jukebox, darts, and a warm fireplace.
Park Pub has to be the perfect place for hockey moms or dads to hang out and stay warm enjoying a beer or cocktail while their kid is skating out on ice. They can watch the live action out on the ice rink on the big HDTV at the bar. Quick Draw is also played here too.
The bar has a few beers on tap and fully stocked with liquor. The food menu offers typical pub fare including appetizers, pizzas, salads, soups, sandwiches, pasta, steaks, and chicken. Specials are offered here including a Cattle Bar menu on Fridays which offers several special meat entrees (steaks, filets, lamb, pork, duck, venison stew). The prices here are fair. See the menu at <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.park-pub.com&s=e5c6ee5b4f3cd01f068aa50b7e59611a6d616cc0287122e93e073a4b45fc463d" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.park-pub.com</a>
I arrived here a little after 6PM on Friday evening. The dining room was empty, so I sat myself at an open table in the lounge, where everyone was hanging out. The noise in the lounge echoed throughout the place. The dining room did eventually begin to fill after I arrived.
I started out with a Diet Pepsi ($1.50) served in a Yuengling pint and a 4 slice round pizza ($5.25), which was pretty good and had a thin crispy crust (soft inside) with plenty of good sauce and cheese.
For dinner I ordered a Troy Philly Cheese Steak ($7.95) served with kettle chips, and pickle. I did request a side salad to go with the meal, but initially instead the waitress brought out an entree sized garden salad. This snafu was corrected very quickly. The bowl of side salad ($1.75 actual price) was fresh and had field greens, cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, black olives, and long very thin shoestring carrots & radishes, which was very decorative, but took some effort to eat. The cheese steak was very good and hearty tasting, which had thin and very tender French dip beef, sauteed peppers, onions, & Monterey Jack cheese in a soft roll. The kettle chips were warm and very crispy and not salty. I decided to pass on dessert since I had enough food.
Overall, I'd give the food a solid 4 stars. The service was decent. The waitress did not speak much and left me alone to enjoy the meal and did offer me a refill on the Diet Pepsi between courses. The atmosphere here was comfortable, but on the loud side with voices were echoing around.
