Tailgate Tavern - Schenectady

We were just passing through and stopped for a bite to eat. I would recommend it if you love good hamburgers and chicken sandwich..

A typical small bar. Low foot traffic and attentive bar tenders.

Really great food and drink…Staff and Ownership people are terrific..Great place to go..

This place is very much not closed. New ownership since COVID so I don 't think Maria 's is in the name anymore it 's just Tailgate. New owner is a ]nice young guy and customer service is good. This is a neighborhood townie type place which has it 's charm. The clientele will be throwing around a lot of salty language late at night but it 's mostly 50 plus so any bar fight is more likely to be comical than dangerous. Now down to the what 's important. The wings are amazing and the home made blue cheese is incredible. I won 't go anywhere else for wings in Guilderland. People I 've come with have all been satisfied with their meals (burgers, nachos, salads etc. . Beer/drink selection and price are standard for a neighborhood bar. Even though there is a no frills vibe the interior was recently redone and it 's nice and clean.... this isn 't exactly a dive bar. Stop in for the great wings and you 'll more than likely meet some fun characters while enjoying your quality meal.

The Tailgate Tavern is a great place to relax and have fun in a very friendly atmosphere. Kasey is great and the service is always up on the line. Whether it's just an adult drink or a late night meal, it's always a wonderful experience.
