I decided to give Signal 30 a try after hearing many great things about it. Taking this account, I ordered ribs and brisket with fried pickles and the results were satisfying. To explain, the ribs were excellent. They were tender, flavorful, and had a ton of meat on the bones. In similar fashion, the brisket was pretty tasty. To breakdown, the brisket had nice flavor with a good amount of fat around the edges. However, the middle of the brisket was a bit overcooked. It was still enjoyable though. After that, I tried the fried pickles which were delicious. The pickles were crispy with a savory and salty taste. These were simply great fried pickles. As a final point, Signal 30 is a really good BBQ restaurant and I highly recommend the ribs and fried pickles. read more

I wasa in Cohoes and wants to eat bbq. Searched tiktok and someone featured this. I ordered the 2 meats - brisket and ribs. They are both yummy and tender. The nnq is dey rubbed with side of sauce. The sauce is really good. The brisket has a little crisp on the outside and tender inside. The server is really nice. The place seems small but it really isnot. It has more tables at the back. I would recommend this place if you like bbq read more

Went there for lunch last week with my son and had the best wings ever! Plate of FF was huge and great also. Got so stuffed I bypassed dinner! He had tacos that he really liked too. Ended up taking half of them home. My wife and her friend are going there for lunch tomorrow. Great service, great food. Mike read more

Pick up order, appeared to have been reheated several times, tasteless and burnt. Total cost was $35.00, for a terrible experience.

Went here for lunch on a Friday afternoon and was greeted immediately by the bartender, who was also the waitress. We ordered two beers, including Sam Adams Cherry Wheat, which she said comes with or without maraschino cherries. Of course I had to try it with cherries and it was great! For lunch, my boyfriend and I ordered the Cheesesteak with peppers and Chipotle mayo. You can customize it to your liking by choosing two toppings and a sauce on it, which was awesome. I ordered the quesadilla with pulled pork. Both arrived piping hot and were fantastic! Both dishes had tons of meat on them and tasted great. We're looking forward to returning for dinner as well as breakfast, which they just launched. Highly recommend this gem in Cohoes! read more

We live near this pub and have been going there through 3 different owners. The original owners ran a "Cheers" like atmosphere where everyone was familiar and you were "always glad to see them " Only the names and faces have changed a bit but the hometown pub atmosphere is still pretty much the same. Give it a try. If a cozy atmosphere and an unpretentious vibe sounds good to you, you won't be disappointed. read more

Wow. Was craving some bbq and this place popped up in my search. Great vibe. Easy parking. The waitress was great. Talking us through the menu. We took every recommendation - and it delivered. The wings were quite possibly the best wings I've ever had. The smoke flavor, sauce coverage, crispness. MUST order wings!!!! We settled on the platter in order to try all the meat and sides. Every thing was delicious. You can tell the ingredients are quality .. and the recipes have been perfected. Will be back for sure!! read more

My wife and I stopped in for dinner last night and everything was great, from the service, the perfectly poured pint of Guinness to the 1st rate chow. We will definitely return, read more

Signal 30 - Pulled pork Mac and cheese! Yum..... - Barbeque Near Me - Cohoes, New York

First time at Signal 30, and I was VERY pleasantly surprised. The inside hasn't changed much since it was The Pub Laurent back in the 90's. This is a good thing. Just a casual, comfortable, neighborhood bar feel. Our table ordered: spicy barbecue wings, fried pickles to start. We ordered the Herules platter which was a sampling of ribs, pulled pork and brisket with Mac and cheese and cole slaw. Also ordered: Nachos, and Jerk Chicken tacos. Long story short, everyone at the table was very happy with everything. Uniformly really good. One person said the jerk chicken tacos could have been a little more "jerky" Their "Christmas in Cohoes IPA was also goood. Will definitely be going back to Signal 30. Servers also freindly and attentive. read more

Good food, good value with plenty of leftovers. Nice community spot to hang. Never disappoints.

The ambiance was pretty standard with sports on the TV's and music playing. The service was exemplary. The food was mid. Now although you could definitely taste the smokey flavor of the meats (I got brisket, chicken wings, and ribs) everything was on the dry side and a tad under seasoned. If the meat were more juicy, and there was more flavor without the sauce, this lace could easily be a 5. read more

Fantastic BBQ with great service. The brisket and onion rings were the best that I've had in the capital region.

Generous servings of good BBQ at reasonable prices! Got "The Hercules", which is 3 meats and 2 sides. Ribs fell of the bone, brisket was moist and tender! Pulled pork was more like pulverized pork, but lean and smokey like the other meats! Onion rings and Cole slaw were unremarkable. Cornbread was had more of a cake-like texture. I'd forgotten that Labatts draft, which I enjoy, is readily available in the Capital District! Theresa provided great service! Will definitely be heading back for another good meal! read more

The food is outstanding. It's the best brisket and ribs I've ever had. The beans with brisket are delicious and so is the cole slaw. The 5 sauces they offer will meet anyone's tastebuds too. The service is terrific! The waitress always has a big smile, greets customers as they come in and is ever so friendly. This is a can't miss restaurant and our go-to place when we are in town read more

Hello Folks! Long term Cohoes resident. A Regular patron of the precious ownership. Also a regular patron of a competitor on 787. Both are good businesses. But, I stopped in today on the way home for an order to go. I was hungry for BBQ and didn't want to go further from my home. I asked server (Sam) what were the favorites. She said the Platters. I ordered a combo platter of Ribs & Brisket with two sides. (Mac & Chs & garlic mashed) OMG! I got home and it was Delicious! Melt in your mouth. I got a sampler of sauces & all were terrific! They also serve Ice Cream. That will be my next visit! If it is as good as the popular place on Rt 9, I won't have to leave Cohoes for good Ice Cream! Keep you posted. BRAVO SIGNAL 30. read more

1st time back since the menu change, absolutely terrible! Went tonight because I saw they were having bbq/ brisket, the brisket was old and tasted like it was reheated several times throughout the night- got the shrimp tacos as well each taco had only 2 small shrimp in each taco and not good at all, on top of waiting almost an hour to get our food, and no one was in there eating but another couple do not waste your time and money - used to be a regular, but since the menu change and the terrible experience tonight- I recommend they change there name to 5 alarm , since the place has gone down hill . Only positive note was the waitress was friendly and extremely sorry for the bad food and wait. read more

We were so excited to support a local business owned by our towns firefighter. Signal 30 has a delicious and affordable bbq menu. No tri tip but the brisket was on point and the pulled pork was great too! You know it's quality when the meats are delicious without any sauce, all very flavorful. They gave us all of the sauces to try and all were unique and paired well. They were out of ribs which was one of the items we wanted to try. Wait time for our meal was close to an hour for takeout. The Hercules combo plate was more than enough for my hubs and I to split w leftovers. Diners were inside and outside of the small restaurant. Onion rings were thick crispy and plenty for $3! They have a seasonal ice cream menu and I had to go w the macho man candy savage LOL w vanilla ice cream which was smooth and yummy. We will def be back and hopefully have them cater parties in the future (there catering menu is online). This may be one of the best bbq spots in the capital region, def check it out! read more

Signal 30 - Seasonal Ice Cream Menu - Barbeque Near Me - Cohoes, New York

Best BBQ I've probably ever had. Brisket and pulled pork were out of this world. Mac and cheese as a side could've been a meal on it's own. It was also arguably as good or better as mac and cheese entrees at nearby Druthers and Tipsy Moose. The sauce selection really was the icing on the cake. They gave us a sample of everything, all delicious. I've never seen Alabama white sauce around here but they have it and it was excellent. We asked to take a couple sauces home as we had a generous portion of leftovers and they gave us a couple containers on the house. Owned by a professional firefighter. Hoping the hours expand a bit for football season. Great place to watch a game. We will be back soon. read more

We ordered catering for a party and had the chance to try several of their meats and sauces. The pulled pork, brisket, and grilled chicken were my favorite, and the Mac & cheese was awesome. The "blue" bbq sauce is proper spicy, and I liked the signal 30 bbq and gold bbq sauces too. Outdoor seating available. read more

great food was not expecting much but v ery pleasantly surprised great service charming atmosphere

Gets 3 stars because my wife liked the Mac n cheese but the klobberknocker sandwich was just barely ok. The brisket was average at best and the hot links were a little dry and just so-so. I was really disappointed in the cole slaw, it had zero taste. If your doing bbq you need a good slaw and this was among worst I've ever had. Portion size was good. Three stars may be a little generous. read more
