Special place for Sunday brunch, highly recommend it. The pancakes are light and fluffy, and maple syrup is real. The corned beef hash is very good too.

Stopped by for lunch because we read they’re dog-friendly, which indeed they are. We enjoyed a leisurely meal at one of five tables in front, and it appears there are more outdoor tables in back. Great food and friendly service.

We were in Saratoga Springs for 3 nights and ended up eating at The Local for 2 of them. Great atmosphere, great service, easy to get there… our AirBnB host told us to go there for the fish and chips and he was not wrong!!!

My first and last visit to the local. I appreciate many restaurants are struggling with staffing, but we visit local restaurants all the time and service is never this poor. We were seated and it took 20 minutes for our waitress to greet us and get us drinks. It then took another 25 minutes to get our appetizer of 7 tater tots. Approximately 15 minutes later we got our dinners. I could only eat 3 chicken wings and had to take the rest home because we were never given water and our waitress never gave us a single refill on our drinks. One drink over the course of one hour and 15 minutes. A lot of these issues have nothing to do with staffing and everything to do with extremely poor service. Our waitress pretty much ignored us during our visit.

Just wanting your random food bloggers I sure am a foodie and there’s nothing I hate worse than a food experience gone wrong. I went in I ordered a simple meal Buffalo chicken sandwich add cheese No pickles, French fries with gravy, And a caesar salad. The food is all great, It’s the lack of listening that bothered me, My chicken sandwich loaded with pickles Upset me so I had them remake it The right way that I ordered it. They brought me back a fresh plate This time it was missing everything but the pickles weren’t there either, My french fries missing gravy and cheese. When you bring back a mistake to fix a mistake it’s time to leave. I hope others have not shared the same experiences me For I had to not eat, not pay and walk away. I think they need some better Listening skills and communication in this restaurant. Maybe as a blogger I’ll try again one day. But as of right now truly disappointed going to find a new place to eat lunch.

First off the place looks like a pub should, very nice. The staff we interacted with were great. Downside was the food. Some of the wings were actually cold. Bangers and mash – mashed potatoes were just barely warm, sausage were not the UK sausage I’m used to. Wife could only take two bites of her Cuban Ruben sandwich, I tried a bite and something was off. On the good side brother in law’s fish and chips was very good and grandson liked the Mac and cheese. There is only street parking and we had to park two blocks away.

I had a nice lunch at the pub. The crowd was a mix of younger and older folks, with indoor and outdoor seating. Service speed was okay, not too fast, but not a long time either. Food was delicious! Staff were quite friendly.
