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.

Or they'll have long conversations with a friend while other customers' glasses sit empty. And if you're seated at a table or booth, they may even forget you exist. This has been the case the last few times I've been, even when it was slow.

I come up to visit family regularly and plan to come back with my husband.

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.

The only real bummer is that their gorgeous outdoor patio wasn't open because of a prior rainstorm (even though the storm had totally cleared)! In any case, great service, food and brews made for a top notch experience. My kids enjoyed their pizza and chicken tenders, and the chicken tacos were really well made and came with three overstuffed tacos. Druthers has four locations - we've also eaten at their spot in downtown Saratoga. They do a great job and we'd definitely return again if in the area.

Have thought for a while that the food has been going downhill but tonight I feel it was like old times. I was excited to see a new menu item the super Todd burger and it was everything I was hoping it would be. Fantastic! We also tried the Caesar salad pizza as an app out of curiosity and that was unique and amazing. Will definitely be spending some time here this summer!! Only four stars because our server was just ok. My daughter also got ice cold French fries which they corrected. Overall it was a great night.

I still really like this place, but the service was way off on this particular day, even though they were not busy. We ordered three Road House Burgers, two with sweet potatoes fries, and one with regular fries. We were only served one burger w/ sweet potato fries, but we were charged $3 extra for each burger! And one burger was missing bacon. The amount of blue cheese crumbles and caramelized onions was minuscule. The burger patties themselves are unseasoned, so the toppings are key. Overall, it's a decent burger and I like their fries, but it's hard to overlook the mistakes with our ordering, especially when we were overcharged because of it.
