The Brick Yard Tavern

We had a lovely lunch for 5. Nice venue with full bar. The corn chowder was excellent. The poutine gravy was made with Guinness. Everyone's sandwiches were good! Service was A plus.

Can't say anything about their food because we left after being ignored for 15 minutes. Well, not totally ignored. A server looked at us with a face of not wanting to be bothered. She got her wish, if that was the intent. Little bit of advice: don't go into the service field if you can't be kind to hungry people... people on vacation who drove 3 hours up here, and spent the day at the track as is our tradition with our 87 year old father, who needed to cross the road and step up the curb in his walker just to get to the table. We're not picky, or high maintenance, or nasty people that like leaving bad reviews. We were just really tired and hungry and didn't need the crappy treatment we got here. Additionally, I was told this was the only table available. Yet, a party of 3 also sitting outside, requested an inside seat and were given the 5 top inside.

Service was great, top notch attention and care went into our experience by our server, couldn't have been happier in that regard. Good beer selection, great drinks on the menu as well. Well varied menu. Food was good and the plates were piled high. There was live music and it wasn't too loud even with a crowded dining room. Came with family and friends and was overall a good experience.

Got lucky this week, and got in.Henrys is always packed, that should be enough for a review!. Finally, our second visit, first was neighbors treating us, that don't buy drinks. I was so bummed when I saw all the current draft choices. But, this week, it was my wife and me... game on. Blue Moon Goose Island drafts were great! Their menu is not multi pages, what they display is all you need, so many choices, its hard to choose for lunch or dinner. Since we were here for lunch, we each had French Onion Soup and shared a Buffalo Chicken flatbread. The soup was very flavorful, gooey with cheese, and just the right amount of onions. The flat bread was perfect. I so wanted the poutine fries for an app, but no way I could eat them. The menu has what you want to try. Everyone in there looked like they were enjoying a huge lunch. The service, top notch, ask for Kristie, a Ballston Spa native, very very friendly and sociable. I really don't want to post this, cuz its going to take us longer to get back in, but, the Tavern is great!! You will not be disappointed. Enjoy!!

I'm not sure why Henry's Tavern has a 3-star rating because we had a 5-star meal and experience. Looking for a place for lunch, we decided on Henry's based on location and, yes, its reviews. We sat at the bar and were quickly greeted by an awesome bartender. She helped us with selecting the perfect beers and provided some great suggestions on lunch dishes. The restaurant is clean and comfortable. Not too loud and they offer a nice selection of food items and drinks. Looking foward to going again in the future!
