Building No. 9 And Grille - Troy

I realize that we 're in an economic recession/depression and that the cost of everything has skyrocketed, but it was RIDICULOUS at this place. I do NOT understand how this place rates so high. Perhaps, it 's because it 's the only game in town and locals have just become desensitized to overpriced and banal food.First of all, they have the store front windows open OPEN without screens to let in flies, traffic noise, and vehicular exhaust. If it 's an effort to reduce HVAC costs, then it 's not worth it as I was harassed by flies throughout the meal. Second......the table was covered in crumbs and the sticky floor has not seen a mop and cleanser in ages. The ladies ' room has a sliding door that was left open which is absolutely not kosher. There was no toilet paper IN the ladies ' room. Since none of the staff saw fit to close the sliding door that a patron left open, it stands to reason that none of the staff would check to see if bathroom supplies were up to speed.Next, the food was outrageously expensive. NONE of this food was sourced by local producers it all came off of a truck and the quality was equal to the vendor. Ick.I ordered a grilled chicken salad and the spinach/artichoke dip starter. The starter $9,00) came straight from a jar and was heated in a microwave. The chips were stale bottom of the bag tri colored tortilla chips with quite literally 1/2 portion missing from the platter on which it was served. It 's like the prep cook just shoved their hand into the bottom of a bag and dropped whatever stuck to their fingers onto the platter.The grilled chicken salad $12) was served in a HEATED bowl this tells me that the chicken bits were heated in the microwave, greens were thrown on top, and it was tossed in the same bowl that the chicken was microwaved in I 've worked as a server, a line cook, and a bartender in holes in the walls AND 5 star establishments. The salad greens were obviously from a bag that was basically iceberg lettuce with a few leaves of romaine and spinach enough to define the product as a mix. The chicken.........oh, my dear gawd..........the chicken was a frozen patty that had been diced and frozen by the processing plant before it was dropped into a bowl and microwaved. The meat was spongy, tasteless, and obviously processed. Just dreadful and how $12 can be justified for a SALAD is absolutely beyond me.For a dessert, I chose a limoncello cake $5) that was ALSO off of a truck or from Sam 's Club. It had ZERO flavor of limoncello and had absorbed the flavors of whatever else was stored in the cooler with it. ICK, ick, ick.My son ordered a cheeseburger $9) that came with chips potato chips, not the British definition of chips and a pickle spear. He ordered curly fries $4) as a starter and they were served in a little side salad bowl and typical for this thing very meagre portion as a starter.For dessert, my son ordered a salted caramel brownie $5) that measured 2.75 inches x 2.75 inches. It certainly wasn 't homemade and, if it was, whomever made it should take up basket weaving instead of baking.My son also ordered a cup of coffee $2.25) that had been sitting in the carafe since Easter. It was horrible and I fully expected his spoon to stand upright in the coffee mug. With a 15% tip, the whole bill for 2 people to eat lunch came to $58.81. That 's over 1/2 of one hundred dollars. Let that sink in.Listen, folks. This was Troy, PA which is surrounded by some of the most excellent sources of beef, chicken, pork, and produce in the State. Surely, it would be much more cost effective to buy locally to serve locals. Even lettuce could be sourced locally from the hydroponic supplier, nearby! This never ceases to amaze me about this region: WHY are restaurants still buying garbage and charging outrageous prices for garbage food? The processed stuff isn 't even food and I will never return to Building 9 for any reaso

Great place!! We had a variety of food from burgers, flatbreads and fish and chips. All was wonderful. Place is awesome inside. Will be back to try more!!

Made a road trip from Northumberland County, PA to Troy, PA for the sole purpose of visiting Building No 9 Grille. It was well worth the trip, the food was excellent and the beer cold. We also purchased a few t-shirts and a pub glass. The best part; was getting to meet Charlie, who is an absolute gentleman! He made time to meet with my wife and I, giving us a brief history of the town and tavern. I asked Charlie, if he would get in a picture with me and did so without hesitation. Building No 9 Grille isa gem in downtown Troy and the team is fantastic. I look forward to my next visit. Keep up the great work! Thanks.

Love going to visit Charlie at Building No 9.Great food and atmosphere.
