Schmidt’s Tobacco & Trading Co.

Pub · Albany

"The charm of Schmidt’s Pub on Solano Avenue is that it feels like you’re having a night out at someone else’s home, with beers to drink and games to play alongside the fireplace. The “bar” is a counter at the back of the pub, where patrons can order beer or wine before settling into a table. Be warned, it’s a cash-only dive that tends to get packed with locals quickly, but it’s a gem of Solano Avenue if you can find a seat." - Dianne de Guzman
