I was disappointed that I could not attend Yelp Albany's recent event at Bye-I-now-Fallside Brewery…read morea few weeks ago. So the next time I scheduled a brewery crawl in the area, I made sure to come here. I submitted a business page update regarding the rebranding, but at this point, I don't know whether Yelp will simply rename the existing page or create a new one for Fallside. For the time being, my update goes under Bye-I. The new space is great. I had no idea how much bigger it was until I walked a ways inside, and I was equally impressed by the cool artwork. The beer is, of course, as tasty as before. We seated ourselves in the back to enjoy our pours, and within a couple of minutes, a server dropped off food menus and attended to us the rest of the evening. Had I read my recently obtained copy of the March-April copy of local "True Brew," I would have known that several of their dishes were featured in it, specifically their beef stew and mac & cheese. But I had the Chicken Caprese sandwich, which came with steak fries perfectly cooked and obviously cut in their own kitchen. We were checked on frequently, and as we were finishing up, their Friday evening music session was starting. Food and drink here are reasonably priced, and I feel the quality of both were just as good, or perhaps better, than what you get at "those larger breweries" along Broadway. Of course I'll still patronize them all, but for me, Fallside has the edge in this part of town right now.

Having only been in once I have a limited view of the menu, but what I did have was great. The coffee was freshly brewed, a delicious, recently roasted, Costa Rican Tarrazu. It was complimented by a wamred brownie. The owner, Niek, was a joy to talk to. He is clearly someone passionate not only about what he does at the cafe, but about the local community. Mojo is a great cafe offering something unique and special to the area that is absolutely worth stopping in to.

The front area is deceiving as there are tons of tables in the back. They also had a long list of upcoming events, which sounded really fun and often involve live music. The mocha was absolutely delicious! It's a great spot to work, meet friends or catch some music. Definitely glad I finally stopped in!

Alias Coffee partnered with 518 Craft and Primobotanica to open up in a shared space in downtown Troy, NY initially during covid. With good coffee and service, I'm sure they will have a successful future. I'm not a coffee drinker, but I do taste it so as part of the yelp experience, community CO was thoughtful enough to partner with a small and upcoming local coffee shop on National coffee day and get us in for a cup of coffee. I asked the Barsita to make me the best drink from the available choices and was given a Cappuccino, which I took a sip and handed it to my dad. My dad did say the coffee was good and from my tasting experience, the coffee was smooth and had a bitter after taste (like a few people I know like it that way) and the taske kept lingering fir an hour. Go get your coffee, this is in a neighborhood that requires revitalization, there have been some good initiatives and us as a community can help support them.

This is not a place where you choose the size of your beverage, but it will come in a lovely vessel. I really enjoyed my chai, blended in house. They have an herbal blend, but you can ask for black tea to be added. I also really liked this lightly sweetened chick pea chocolate chip cookie, which went perfectly with my tea. They have several vegan and gluten free food and drink options. My daughter had the hot cocoa and fruit parfait. She gave it an 8.5, because, she wanted the cocoa to be "more chocolaty" and the parfait to have less jam and for it to be served in an easier to access container. The parfait was served in a narrow mason jar, which made for a pretty presentation, but also made the goodness hard to reach. I asked her whether she would order the same items if nothing changed and she said yes. The folks who run the place are fantastic!

I'm not removing a star for this because it was only one song, but they put on a screamo metal song. I love all music but it was pretty loud and jarring for the cozy 50's inspired space.

Oh Corn! is located right on the river and on a nice day like we had you can sit outside and take in the sights!

We started with cocktails, which were generally pleasing. My margarita was served in a beautiful glass, and I liked its tartness. But therein lies, I believe, a missing ingredient. A margarita is supposed to have a combination of tartness and sweetness - usually from agave - and I did not detect the sweetness component. Still, I'd order it again. Our group ordered a variety of arepas, and I went with their Reina/Queen, which is their chicken and avocado arepa. I was expecting it to be chunks of chicken and sections of avocado, I did not realize it was going to be combined more like a chicken/avocado salad... but still delicious. I definitely want to come back for some of those cooked meat arepas. And future visits will include dessert - we didn't order any because we were going elsewhere afterwards, but those all looked decadent. This is a great component to the variety of cuisines available in Troy!

The place offers plenty of seating including booths, sofas, lounge chairs, coffee tables, and plenty of classic artsy decor and china on the walls. The bakery has been very popular with the parking lot very full. They offer fresh baked scones, cookies, muffins, cupcakes, biscotti with gluten free options too. They also have a coffee and espresso bar too! I stopped in here recently for some fresh bakery goods. I picked up a Ham & Cheddar Scone ($3.50), Cinnamon Bun ($4), Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake ($2.50) and a Chocolate Chip Cookie ($3). The scone, cinnamon bun, and cookie were still warm out of the oven. The scone was sooo good, firm outside and very moist inside which had both sweet and savory flavors. The sweet Cinnamon Bun had ample sweet icing, very soft inside. The chocolate chip cookie was sweet and buttery. The cupcake had a moist cake texture and the peanut butter buttercream frosting was sweet, just right. I definitely need to come back here for the scones again!
