A little history to start, what do the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines have in…read morecommon? They were all Spanish colonies. Caribe leans to Dominican and Puerto Rican dishes and those same dishes have a familiar feeling to my Filipino palate. When I visited, I opted for the Chicharron plate over yellow rice. The Filipino version of this dish is called Lechon Kawali. What is it? It's a carnivore's dream, a deep fried slab of uncured bacon. Repeat, deep fried pork belly. Other than foie gras or bone marrow nothing comes close to meat fat decadence than this stuff. It's bad for you but oh soooo good. The garlic sauce tries to cut through the fat but it's a losing game. There's a tiny bar next to the cafeteria style take out displays. There's also extra dining space and bathrooms up a small set of stairs. It's comfortable and clean in there. I liked the vibe. I'll definitely be back. I'm not getting the Chicharron next time, however good it is. I think people my age should only be allowed to have it once a year. If that dish is any indication, there are several items on their menu that will also satisfy.

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.

He recommended this place and said the pizza was really good. So we get there and there's only two other people there. The bartender seemed like she was on it. Had the menus. Had the specials. Was talking to everyone. And she was quick with the refreshments. So the bar is as I remember it 20 years ago. Nothing super special but it's spacious and remotely clean. Bathrooms worked. They had darts and a pool table. So we order food. Mozz sticks. Pizza. A chicken wrap. And some loaded fries. Well unfortunately the fryer wouldn't kick on. I even went into the kitchen to see if I could figure it out. I couldn't. But the bartender and cook were both super cool and apologetic and we just ate what they brought out. They did have someone come and fix the issue too in under an hour they were back up and running. Which meant the owner cares in my opinion. Pizza was good. It's bar pie but the bottom was crispy and there was an enormous amount of cheese. The wrap was good and came with a decent house made Mac salad. In the end I'd recommend this place as a day drink and bite to eat. I imagine it may be a bit rowdy at night. But in all I would go back.

There's a variety of seating (including some cool very tall-backed chairs), which is a nice change of pace. There's a small menu, drinks, and coffee/sweets. The service is super cheery and prompt. The food is a bit middle of the road and humdrum, and our "hot" beverages were tepid at best. I recommend getting a drink over getting coffee, all things being equal. We'll see if it survives the closing of the Van Gogh Experience, but it's easy to see how with the right management, and maybe a slightly gussied up menu, this could become a destination and not just a stop-off.

I love, love, LOVE that we have found a new music venue for local tunes several nights of the week.
