Fantastic place, any time of day or night. Always comfortable and inviting with a friendly staff. In the summer, during track season, this is the place to be. Great bands on the patio and the best party in town after track. In the off season, it's quiet charm gets to shine. Great menu with a variety of foods including Pizza, BBQ, Burgers & Sandwiches. Good food & drinks and great atmosphere!
Security was very aggressive after spending money. I see the owner is battling negative reviews but I am a first hand witness to the unnecessary crudeness. We brought food and many drinks and were very rudely asked to leave because of an EMPTY cooler. Was told we can leave it outside but it s a very expensive cooler. We were treated very poorly. There s no excuse.
This review is relevant for non-track season, during track season I'm pretty sure it is packed the whole time and is probably pretty fun.
We were staying down the street for DMB and we ended up going here twice that weekend. Once on Friday night when we got to town, the bartender was cleaning up around 930 but was nice enough to serve us some drinks and food even though they close at 10. We ended up chatting with him for a while and met a horse groomer named Mario.
The next morning we went for breakfast and Mario was there again holding court at the bar. Apparently all of the people who work with the horses work from 4am-10am and then just post up here all day. We had a delicious breakfast and ended up sitting with Mario and a few training riders from England for a few hours.
It's sort of a cross between a diner and Cheers, do yourself a favor, skip Hatties and the downtown madhouse and get out to the Horseshoe!
Good breakfast or brunch and very close to the track. Convenient for walking the area if going to see ponies run.
Went for a nice quiet fall drive in saratoga, (its so much different when the track is closed) and stopped by this cozy inn for a meal. Top notch local atmosphere. Turns out the owner was sitting there having his own quiet meal. I give it 5 stars, great place to stop in if your in the area
The service is really great here! Everybody is really friendly. Mike has always been my server and he is awesome! Food is good and you never have to wait long for your meal.
