Awesome staff and great live music when I went! After a second trip back I was convinced to change this review to 5 stars. First they have shuffle board there and I love that, and second they have American Honey! Something I find rarely at bars.

Simple, fun, and friendly. One of my favorite places to just chill with friends and have a drink. Even if it's not a fancy mega brew situation. In other words, it's safe to have a bud light here without attitude. 😁

Located about a block away from the more hectic downtown bar scene, the Jay St. Pub is able to maintain a welcoming atmosphere thats casual yet fun. With classic bar games like shuffleboard and darts, along with a small stage in the back for live music, this place is great to meet up with old friends so that youre able to have fun, yet still hold a conversation.

On nights when there’s live music I never leave disappointed. Great laid-back atmosphere, where you really get a hometown feel when you’re in the place. Roomy space for darts and other bar games. Everyone is welcoming when you’re there.

A great neighborhood spot in the Electric City. Great spirit selection and a nice selection of local craft beer on tap. A bar to not be missed in downtown Schenectady. Try the green tea shots!

My wife and I visited the Jay Street Pub while we were at a wedding in Schnectady. What a fantastic place. Mitch has a great place that feels comfortable and inviting. Certainly a place not to be missed. We will be back. Just wish that this bar was in our home area of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Cheers!!

First time here. Had a bad experience right before we got there. Felt welcome the moment we walked in, from security all the way to the bartender and other guests. Loved it. This might be our NEW spot!!! They had great drinks, too.

No food. I believe they offer to order pizza,etc from next door for you. There may be other nearby options if you want to eat while you have a brew or two. Has a neighborhood bar feel to it. The regulars definitely feel at home.

Listen the bouncer here is feeling himself to much😣 it took me more then 3 minuets to get the bar he was just doing to much I will not come back here. I understand security. But harassing me is crazy!! All the way out the door

First time here and the guy at the door was polite and welcoming. Bartender with brunette hair was rude, didn’t listen to orders correctly, then even more rude after the right order was made, gave me limes in my hand to to pair with our tequila and had no salt. When I asked if there were napkins available to lay said hand limes on was offered a bar rag 😳 sat back and watched her roll her eyes at everyone that ordered a drink afterward. But great atmosphere and good music. Bartenders literally make customers want to come back but I’d want to order from this particular one again. She wasn’t pleasant or welcoming at all! Her name was Johnna 👎
