Connected by an affinity for craft beer and food, Upstate Bar & Grill is a partnership between a chef, an entrepreneur, and a brewer who had a vision of delivering Cooperstown a taste of the gastropub…
The quality of everything in the order was gold standard, the flavor was consistently through the roof on every item in my order. You can tell this is REAL food with natural ingredients from the first bite, which in my opinion justifies the price a little bit, even if the portions are not huge. The pulled pork Mac and cheese was chefs kiss, the shells were cooked perfectly, not undercooked or overcooked. The cheese was very creamy and had a shocking amount of flavor. The pulled pork.. Don't get me started. The BBQ & Ranch drizzle across the top, with the green onion is the icing on the cake! Speaking of cake, although expensive, the strawberry cake is absolutely decadent. What a treat! Extremely moist, perfect texture, all sorts of strawberry and vanilla flavor jumping out at you. It was the perfect level of sweet without being obnoxious or inedible. And this is coming from someone who typically doesn't eat cake and has low tolerance for sweet food items. It was delicious. My fiancé got the Maple Bacon Bourbon burger and let me tell you, one bite of it made me jealous. The patty was not greasy, the flavor was awesome. Maple bacon bourbon burgers are one of my favorites, and this is the best one I've tried locally. The fries, also weren't greasy, they had the perfect crunch on the outside but were nice and soft inside. The mashed potatoes were very good, skin still in there, a touch of crushed red pepper for a little kick at the end. Just all around HIGH quality food. I had to pay $10 for a long distance delivery but I would absolutely order it again.
