The Shaker & Vine - Wine bar in Schenectady - 221 Harborside Dr, USA

Beautiful atmosphere and friendly staff. Our waiter, Aaric, was attentive and knowledgeable. Had a great brie appetizer and three pork sliders. Great wine selection with pay as you go option by the glass. Great place!

Drinks are amazing, food was a big no! Flatbread tasted like it was taken from a freezer and heated up. Buffalo chicken dip came with bagged chips, you get fresh homemade chips at Chili's.

Food: My pesto panini was so yummy. My plan was to save half for later, but I ate it all. I went with chips but will try the side salad next time. Atmosphere: We ate outside. The setting is beautiful but the bees were everywhere. We saw several guests ask to be moved inside. They should consider some kind of screen or netting. Service: The service was overall good. A bee landed in one of the drinks and swam around in it. The server must have experienced a glitch because it took some convincing for her to replace the drink without charge. 🥴

Went here for my birthday and absolutely loved it! Our server was so sweet (sorry I don't remember her name), the food was delicious as was the wine, melon cocktail and strawberry starburst shooter! A little pricey but absolutely worth it. The atmosphere and the set up in there is also so warm and welcoming. I will absolutely be back!

Haven't tried the food yet but the cocktails were amazing. Our server was borderline too attentive but very polite and helpful. I really liked the atmosphere. I hope they succeed. It's a much needed addition to the waterfront area in Schenectady.

Great atmosphere, great food, great staff. Place was very busy but there was some seating available at the bar. Bartender did a great job pumping out drinks and food. Modern design on the inside, great view in the back. I'd love to come back again sometime.

Have only been once and it will be the last time. Got the Mediterranean Board and Ricotta Dip to share with some drinks. Everything was buy at at grocery store semi-homemade Sandra Lee quality. Raw celery sticks and red peppers? Stale pita? Stale sliced white bread. Stale boxed crackers? Nothing was WOW that's good. I don't think they actually made anything themselves. For $28 for the Mediterranean Board...come on. Are all the reviews at this place fake?

It's always a good place to go. Service is always on point. Food and drinks are always great
