Been here several times now, the food is always phenomenal! Never had anything here, that wasn't delicious. Super friendly owners. And oh boy, AMAZING selection of whiskey! And great cocktails! read more

Drinks are really small food was not that great had the shepherds pie had no flavor will not go back.

We were road tripping through Oregon and our travels brought us to this little gem of an eatery in central Albany. We were not expecting the food to be so good, but it was! Everything about this place is cool, hospitable, warm and inviting. My oldest kid had a chili dog, which they thoroughly enjoyed. We also ordered the shepherd's pie and a kids charcuterie board. Both were chef's kiss. The Squeaky Cork houses a full bar, and the spirit selection was quite impressive (particularly the Scotch). The wait staff and bartender were so pleasant and accommodating. No pretension, just good vibes. We appreciated the coloring books and crayons for our little ones as did the more grown-up fare on the kids menu. As a finale to a fun dining experience, the check was brought to us in a Scottish vintage hardcover book, pretty sweet! This eatery was definitely a highlight of our travels. It embodies a community pub vibe, that's for sure. read more

What can about The Squeaky Cork.... except YES, PLEASE!!! We wandered in for a pre dinner drink since we were early for my BF's birthday rez down the street and oh my gosh am i glad we did!! This has to be one of the coolest places in Albany! Decorated perfectly and cozy enough to feel like everyone is your neighbor! We only had apps (charcuterie) and drinks (he had a stout, i had a whiskey sour - have it made with shanky's whip and thank me later!!). The board had such a variety on it, we weren't sure where to start! and the drinks..... well, they are the well paved road to alcoholism!! I cannot wait to go back here and try the other food! Hopefully the same guy is there to greet us, because he was the friendliest little man this side of the wilamette!! read more

This place is so adorable! The decor is cute and the bar is cozy. We sat outside during the summer and enjoyed the weather with our flight and food. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. This is a must try when in Albany. read more

This place is truly a gem in albany. Great cocktails, great customer service, and their honey mustard with the soft pretzel is one of the best foods i've ever had. I've been here lots of times and it's always are go to for date nights. Brought a friend from out of town and we ended up ordering another soft pretzel after our first was demolished and the kitchen hooked us up with the honey mustard. read more

I love the shepherds pie! And cocktails are amazing here too. Love the atmosphere and service.

Nice, cozy restaurant with good service and friendly staff. The menu is very limited and pricey for what you get. A bottle of beer is $7. They don't take reservations so it is a hit or miss to get a table or seat at the bar. The last too times I went there it was full with a 45 minuted wait and there is nowhere to sit while you wait. Probably will not try to go there again,. read more

My favorite grilled cheese and tomato soup combo! Nice firehouse theme with nice workers. Book receipts are such a cute little touch! read more

Another little hidden gem in downtown Albany! We wondered into The Squeaky Cork a week ago after there was a power outage in our neighborhood and we were hungry! It was packed but there was room at the bar to sit. We were greeted immediately upon entering with friendly smiles. I asked the wonderful lady behind the bar what she recommended on their signature drink menu and she said their "Dewdropper" was one of their best from the recent Mixology event held downtown. I'm a gin lover so I was sold and the drink did not disappoint! So much flavor! My friend had the "Ginger Peach" and absolutely loved it. I ordered the "Salty Kilty Dog" to eat and it was soooo good! Some of the best comfort food I've had in a while. You just can't go wrong with potato chips loaded with some of the best tasting chili, smoked sausage and cheddar. The staff were just amazing and the service was excellent! We've been back a second time already because the drinks and food were just that great. If there's no seating when you first arrive, we promise, it's worth the wait. There's a reason they're packed out! read more

The Squeaky Cork - Dewdropper Drink - Scottish Near Me - Albany, Oregon

I love this little spot. Welcoming and cozy, and the service is so personal and sweet! The food is absolutely delicious and I thought the prices were fair. We've had the charcuterie board, the chili dog, grilled cheese and tomato soup and my favorite has to be the soft pretzel I asked what sweet mustard they use bc I could drink it and they make it in house! If only they'd bottle it the drink selection is amazing, along with local beers and wines. It really is a gem, a spot I'd more expect in Portland, nestled right in downtown Albany. You can tell the owners love the place and the community and this comes across in everything they do. Can't wait to go back! read more

Came here for a date night to try this place out. I found the inside was still very similar to how Three Sheets left it, including the police patches on the wall (super cool). Overall, dimly lit ambiance, it was perfect. We ordered a flight of whiskey, the whiskey hotel charcuterie and the pretzel. Everything was amazing. Who would have thought BBQ sauce and pretzels were a match made in heaven?! The board was giant and well worth the cost. Between that and the pretzel, we didn't end up getting anything else (though the entree La looked amazing). One gripe I had was the wait staff. Most all of them were VERY young and didn't appear to have much experience. One thing I noticed is I think they sort of ran out of room, and it was sort of dying down. I watched a lot of the staff carry food up to next to the bar at a little staging area. They nibbled and collected in this one area by the patches, talked on their phones and overall, sort of got caught up hanging out there a lot. It was to the point where we had empty glasses and no utensils until asked. Other gripe was the drinks came out sort of, as they are, and don't have any sort of gimmicky pizzazz to them. I sort of expected to see this when I saw they essentially specialize in this. Either way, this place was amazing, and we plan to return. Maybe sooner than later! Thank you! read more

First of all, the vibe is *immaculate.* It's rare to go to a restaurant and be excited the second you come in, but it's so beautiful and the energy of everyone, especially the friendly service, is so good, that honestly I'd hang out for that alone. I also went in completely blind and didn't realize this is a Scotch bar, which is my drink of choice, and was blown away by the selection. I like nice peaty Islays and they can be hard to find at restaurants, but there are plenty AND a nice flight! We also overloaded on food; the charcuterie board alone was frankly enough for a meal for us - ten different cheeses along with meats, fresh and dried fruits, crackers and bread, pickles and olives.... Really just a nice spread. The sausage and mash was a bit less exciting (but still good!), but the shepherd's pie was REALLY flavorful. We're excited to come for corn beef and cabbage Wednesdays. read more

Great atmosphere, food and drinks. I had the Shepherds Pie. Delicious! Great selection of Whiskey, Bourbon, and Scotch. Plus others. I would consider this the best little bar in town. read more

Such a cool place for dinner and a glass of whiskey! Very nice ambiance - lots of stuff to look at on the walls, nice and cozy too. And I have never seen such a selection of Scottish whiskey (there is wine and a list of signature drinks as well). I ordered Shepherds Pie - boy oh boy was it to DIE for! Another in our party got Bangers and Mash and loved it, and still someone else got the Mac & cheese and said that was ALSO fantastic! All the food and drinks were great, the service was good - we have nothing but good things to say about this place! (Except maybe could you bring it to San Diego so we don't have to fly all the way here next time?!) read more

Solid 5 stars. It's one perfect place I haven't experienced for a long time! Surprised spirits selection. Christmas ambiance is magical. Hidden gem of Albany. Please don't change a thing. Need to drive down from Portland more often. read more

The Squeaky Cork - Very festive! They put a lot of lovely Christmas decor. Check it out! - Scottish Near Me - Albany, Oregon

We got there to late in the evening for food service, but we were still able to order a couple of amazing desserts. My friend had a raspberry swirl cheesecake with lemon curd, and I had the sticky toffee pudding with ice cream. Both desserts were fabulous, and we had a great time talking to the owner/bartender about the huge selection of whiskies and other bottles on display behind the bar. We will definitely go there again--can't wait to try the bangers & mash and shepherds pie! read more

Amazing, drinks were good and it was very cozy. The server was very friendly. I do hope they will have more dessert in stock next time as we would've liked to try it but had to go somewhere else for that. read more

So good! The soft pretzel is a must get. The ambiance in there is also excellent for a date night. The drinks are all really good too. I got the mule and it was fabulous. read more

Was really excited to eat here, but left disappointed. Food was about 40% more expensive than it should have been. Asked questions about the kids menu. There was a lot of back and forth with our 10 yr old. It was obvious he was not an adult. Ordered the charcuterie board. . $10ish for a cold cut platter seemed reasonable. Gave us the adult one. Seemed kinda large, but didn't think much about it until we got the bill. Took 10 minutes to settle it. No apology. Implied that we didn't make it clear enough that it was for our child. Had the Sheppard pie. Very bland. Authentic, perhaps, but no way was it worth the $18 or $20 I paid. I try not to post negative reviews, but the entire meal was a big miss. Hopefully they'll improve in the near future. read more

A bunch of us went here for our bi-weekly Thirsty Thursday meet-up. Six of us took up a third of the place, so expect cozy, but great ambiance. Great selection of whiskey. There is plenty of beer on tap. Food was better than pub quality, and very tasty. Two of us ordered the same beer, but what showed up was two very obvious beers. When we told the staff, they said it was the same be, different kegs. After several taste tests around the table, we knew they were different beers. The owner discovered that the brewery mislabeled the legs, and he promptly came over to apologize, which we all laughed about. We are trained promptly and know our beers. When we ordered dessert, he came and told us that it wasn't up to his standards, so he refused to serve it and offered us something else. By then, we were stuffed, so politely declined paid, and went on our way. A must go to place if you're in Albany. read more

My husband and I stopped by on a Friday night, and we were so glad that we did! What a great little spot in Albany. My husband loves Whiskey and they had a really large, unique selection. The owner was so fun to talk with and was really kind. Both my husband and I really loved that there were no TV's in sight! We are looking forward to going back soon. read more

A small, warm family pub with a great whisky list. The food selections are limited, the kitchen is tiny, but the presentations are top-notch and the food is good and well-made. There are probably 100 whiskys on the menu, and 20 more that aren't on the menu (just ask). The owner's interest shows: they make interesting cocktails, but the standout is a straight whisky with a dropper-bottle of branch water. They have several good beers and wines, and the dining room is family friendly. Only one table seats more than 4, so make a reservation if you're bringing a larger group. This is our go-to spot in Albany for a relaxed drink and conversation. read more

Atmosphere is cozy and intimate, staff is super friendly. The bar list is amazing, surely one of the most extensive whiskey selections anywhere. The food is good but not great, and the menu is limited. I'll be back since the positives outweigh the negatives, but please dear Lord get some more comfortable chairs! read more

I always enjoy stopping by The Squeaky Cork to see what's new and exciting both on their drink and food menu. Some of my favorites are their Firehouse Chili and the Iron Horse Irish Death on tap. If beer isn't your cup of tea, they have over 200 scotch and whiskies to choose from and that doesn't even count the other liquors they serve. It's hard to find something you don't like at this place! read more

Love that Shepherd's pie and my hubby likes the Mac n chez with bacon. Service is always great, friendly and informative. Small venue so get in early or later or sit at the bar. We love bringing in friends and introducing them. The scotch selection is amazing. Get a flight and try something new. Dessert is Sticky Toffee... not as gooey and rich as in Scotland but pretty damn close. read more

Had a great meal. The bartender was informative and friendly. So many drink choices. Great Caesar salad. Glad we went here.

Fabulous new restaurant. Wife and I have been there 3 times now. Food is fabulous and the hospitality of this family-owned restaurant is second to none. Very cozy and I can't wait to visit again. I wish them all the best as it seems like they're very much on the right track. Very highly recommended. read more

Our first time in, but certainly not our last. The Wahl Family Farms corned beef, with cabbage, carrots and mashed potatoes - only available the first Wednesday of the month - were absolute PERFECTION! I know where we'll be every first Wednesday for the rest of our lives! Owners Josh & Christie Crawford are such warm, friendly hosts. The whiskey menu is extensive. They even pour Isle of Jura which I haven't found anywhere else in the valley! The ambience is terrific and we were very much put in mind of our honeymoon in Ireland. read more

Atmosphere great, but food overpriced for what you get. I was surprised the $5 bread was 2 puny little pieces. Remember the days when fancy restaurants served bread for free? The Dizzy Hen in Philomath served us warm, fresh, generous amount of bread. Yes, we paid for it, but at least I didn't feel ripped off. read more

Amazing service, food was phenomenal. The pretzel appetizer was hot and tasty and the sauces even better. The mac n cheese was so good I had to stop myself from eating while my stomach screamed for me to stop. Amazing place, would love to come back next time I'm in town. read more

Very tasty, friendly and quick service! The best Moscow mule I've had! Such a fun atmosphere too!

Went in for dinner Saturday had a small bowl of the tattie soup and it is delicious, it's real deal homemade soup not canned or mass produced soup. My dinner was the sausage and mashed taters, sausage was wonderful and the masked potatoes were, brace yourself REAL MASHED POTATOES, not what most places offer. All around a really great tasting meal and I will absolutely go back. Huge and I mean huge drink selection, only negative it's small so when it's full (which it was) the number of people in that small space raises the temperature pretty fast. read more
