Naughter’s

You can find some of the best diner-style cooking in the entire state of New York at Naughter’s. Try to snag the vinyl booth next to a stack of classic rock cassette tapes, and settle in for a meal that you’re going to be thinking about long after you’ve left the Capital Region. We can’t stop thinking about their chopped cheese and the vegan Industry Eggplant sandwich, the latter of which comes with a garlicky aioli as well as roasted and pickled peppers. If something gets served with a side of mac and cheese, get it, because theirs is made with orecchiette and finished on the flat top, which results in some delightful crispy bits. As with any diner, breakfast here is always a good idea.
