Recently planned a get together with some former coworkers. Needed a place to meet up. When I…read moregoogled, "good cheap eats in Schenectady," the 20 North Broadway Tavern topped the short list. Done. It was an instant hit. I wanted the pastrami sandwich pictured on the website. Turns out, it was every bit as good as it looked. Probably the best I've had in the Capital Region. I think it came with coleslaw but they let me switch it for a small salad. The beer was cold. The server/ bartender was both friendly and efficient. The food came up relatively quickly. I was relieved and delighted. The tavern has just the right look. It's cute from the outside with nice signage. Inside, the lighting is dim-- especially at night--with the feel of a cool dive bar. If you want a more festive setting during the summer, there's outdoor seating complete with hanging string lights. That actually looked very inviting but my friends chose to stay indoors due to the threat of rain. As we prepared to leave, my friends were wondering why they hadn't been to the tavern before. One thing for sure is that we'll be back for more "good cheap eats" and great beer.

I'm in an Irish pub so I HAVE TO get fish and chips and so happy that I did. 2 huge fish strips served over hot French fries. Did not disappoint! My husband had a cheeseburger.

Hopefully the menu will increase to maybe some sandwiches in the future. The best part was the happy go lucky server Lynne very pleasant to talk to and johnny on the spot when you needed something.

This was our first time doing trivia here and it's ran so well! Orders are also taken on sheets that are written by you which makes service super fast and organized. The bartender was really nice and friendly and checked in routinely as well. The pretzels were really good and portions were plentiful. My tacos were a bit cold but had good flavors and my friends enjoyed their burgers and tacos as well. The pretzels were hot and soft. Great line of beers, ciders, and sours. Will definitely be back!

The bar offers 12 beers on tap, can beers, wine, mixed drinks, and energy drinks. The tavern food menu offers a variety of appetizers, salads, burgers, sandwiches, tacos, personal size flat breads and specials. The prices here seem pretty reasonable. I stopped by Talon's Pub and Grille at the Eagle Crest Golf Club for an early dinner. It was very hot and humid outside, so this was a good place to take a break and stay cool. I took a seat up at the bar and got a food menu and specials. I started out with and ice water and Shrimp Tacos (3 for $9 plus tax) on special served with sour cream and mild salsa. The 3 grilled soft tacos were each filled up well with tender grilled shrimp, lettuce, shredded cheese and pico de gallo. These shrimp tacos were very good. Next, the French Dip ($13 plus tax) served with beef broth for dipping, choice of side (I chose homemade macaroni salad) and a dill pickle. The French Dip sub had plenty of thinly sliced grilled beef & melted Swiss cheese on a soft toasted sub roll. The homemade macaroni salad had a light mayo base with firm elbow pasta, chopped red peppers, onions and celery. Both the French Dip and macaroni salad were spot on in taste and portion. I was very stuffed and got the check which was $23.54 with tax and before tip. Overall, the food I ordered exceeded my expectations for taste, portion size and price. The service here was prompt and friendly. I would definitely stop here again whether it's after golf or just driving by.
