    This is a cool place, hip vibe, great location and of course a great beer selection. I wish I had the means to bring something home, their selection seems killer. They do have a lot more cans than draft, which was somewhat hard since you couldn't really look at every can they had behind the counter. Therefore, I opted for a delicious IPA on draft., which was a little pricey but worth it I suppose. It would be cool if they could have a can list as well, so you could more readily see what they have in the case. I understand this would be difficult with the ever changing selection, however, it was bothering me that there was A LOT I couldn't really evaluate. Otherwise, they have a bar side and a gaming side, which had Sega and Nintendo, which was just awesome. They had cans for purchase to drink or to go, draft pour, and a welcoming environment. All in all, I would definitely stop in for a beer if I found myself on Lark street, next time, I'll just ask more about the cans.

    This is a mellow beer bar with both indoor seating and a few tables outdoor (not covered, just on Lark street). They have TV's inside as well as one bar with seating at it. I liked that they had a variety of beers on tap as well as tons of canned beer to take to go. I agree with another review that it's a tad on the pricey side. Most of the beers are about $8-$10. However, because of the type of beers they have you probably can't find all of them at your local bars. Overall it's a cool, chill spot especially if you're just looking to grab a drink during the day.

    Excellent customer service and good beer. Very good social distancing. For finger foods their foods were quite good. Reasonably price and a good place to hang out.

    Their rotating beers are excellent! I had the Sloop Juice Bomb (Hopewell Junction, NY), a New England IPA. Which was served just at the right temperature in a 16oz goblet. It was a smooth beer. However u preferred the Finback Connect the Dots, which is a watermelon Imperial IPA. It had just the right amount of watermelon flavor to taste. Definitely recommend! The environment is cozy, it contains friendly and approachable staff. A plus for dog lovers- dogs are allowed!

    Saturday night dinner service can sometimes demand a period of winding down prior to heading home. An adult beverage, along with some conversation, can provide the ideal transition between work and rest, with a bonus if you can walk to a place that allows for both. Lucky Center Square residents have the fairly new incarnation of Pint-Sized, which has evolved from a coffee/beer-to-go spot into a full-fledged beer and cider joint, that does a fairly good job of meeting both of those needs. My friend and I rolled in sometime after 11:00 to find a hopping bar and selection of quality beverages. While I love a good beer (and plan to drink a few next month while in Europe), cider has been my jam in recent years. I just find it a bit lighter in my belly. As soon as I spied the beautiful can of Nine-Pin Cider Rosé, my decision was made. We grabbed two and headed to the less crowded area, down one step and 10 decibels. We sipped our drinks directly from the can and caught up, enjoying the great view of Lark Street and the excellent playlist. We were eventually joined by a pretty damn noisy group of folks, but they didn't detract from the experience too much. I do wish, though, that people could moderate their volume a little better but, it was Saturday night and they seemed to be enjoying themselves. As did we. I think I found my new summer sipping spot. Check it out.

    This is a great bar, where on any given night you can run in to Albany friends and explore some amazing beers from all the best microbreweries. They consistently always have the best music playing and have some great DJ takeover nights that cover a wide range of musical tastes but still not your typical bar DJ scene. Plus - retro video games in the back room. In the summer I specifically enjoy sitting at a sidewalk table and watching Lark Street come to life. Something for everyone at Pint Sized, even some cheap 'Gansetts when its rent week.

    Went for dinner last night after our drive up. It was such a cozy atmosphere & reminded us of both…read moreGermany & Alsace. The beer was delicious with solid options. We had the raclette, herbed spaetzle and split chicken schnitzel. First, the raclette was so delicious. The cheese was warm and gooey over tender potatoes, and accompanied by various pickled items & crostini. The herbed spaetzle was good, though a touch sweet for my taste. Regardless, it was delicious and warm. The waiter had the schnitzel split for us without asking, which I appreciated. It was juicy and paired with sour/sweet red cabbage and mustard/tangy German potato salad. The meal was very filling and not badly priced. The food here is legitimately delicious, not "just good" for a restaurant near the ski resort. We sat outside on the upper deck with a nice mountain view. After dinner we had a drink by one of the open fire pits outside, which was a cozy way to end a delicious meal. We will definitely be back when in the area.

Ive been to Germany a few times and can say this is authentic. The chicken schnitzel with jager sauce is so flavorful and rich. The jager sauce is a dark brown mushroom sauce (similar to a Marsala). The name jager means huntsman. Substituted the seasonal vegetable (carrot and asparagus) for the cabbage which was so delicious. The meal is hearty and rich. The staff was wonderful. The Apple strudel was one of the best desserts I've ever had with cinnamon ice cream. I can only imagine how cozy this place is during the fall and winter. Absolutely worth the price.

    "We don't have a cocktail menu, but we can make anything you'd like."…read more That was one of the first things our server told us, and honestly, it was refreshing. These days, it feels like every bar has a cocktail menu full of creatively named drinks that require reading a list of ingredients just to figure out what you're ordering. At Governor's Tavern, if you want a gin and tonic, you simply ask for a gin and tonic. The only decision you need to make is which gin you'd like. I'm not much of a cocktail person, but I appreciate that not every place feels the need to reinvent the wheel. The place was packed at lunchtime, but we got lucky and grabbed a pair of seats across from the bar. The server who I quoted was genuinely friendly and welcoming. I ordered a Guinness, but unfortunately the keg had just kicked. She recommended the Samuel Smith chocolate stout instead and even brought me a sample before I committed to taste since I never heard of it, which was a nice touch. For food, we ordered the State Grill burger and the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. Both were excellent, and each came with Belgian-style hand-cut fries. If you're spending the day browsing the boutiques and antique shops along Warren Street and want a drink, a good meal, and a lively mix of locals and tourists, Governor's Tavern is worth a stop.

Shared an OG Chicken Sandwich $13. It was buttermilk fried chicken with tomato and lettuce on a roll. Sandwich was pretty tasty. Service was just average. Otherwise, I would've given it four stars. Only a few people appear to have ordered food here. Basically, the place appears to be a watering hole. Only app.metered parking in the area.
