We want to thank you the more than 13,000 people that dined at Hattie’s during track season and to the countless additional bar customers.  After all that Hattie’s needs two days for scrubbing and resting.  We will see you all on Thursday when we re-open.

This is a full bodied lager with a and hint of spice and hops in its clean finish.  Come in and taste what made the biggest beer hall in Munich famous!  It is perfect for the fall…especially as Oktoberfest starts next week in Germany.  Come and drink what the Germans drink every September, Hofbräuhaus Lager.

Come to Saratoga this weekend to celebrate the last weekend of the track.  There will be live music September 4th and 5th at various locations throughout the city.  Although Hattie’s will not be a live music venue, you all can still stop by for our famous fried chicken.  We look forward to seeing you this weekend!

and look for destination number 15, Saratoga.  They say Hattie’s has the best fried chicken on the East Coast….and well we won’t disagree!

Well the track is open…and you all know what that means, The Fried Chicken Sandwich is Back!  Of course, if the sandwich isn’t your thing, there is also a 3-Piece Fried Chicken as well.  We added french fries and sweet potato fries, so stop on over, see the Hattie’s Girls and enjoy a delicious lunch.  For those of you who haven’t already found us, we have a new location this year.  We are now directly across from where we were last year, now between the burgers and crepe stand….don’t worry we are still in the track.

Well it’s a new month and that means a new beer and wine!  Come on in for a Victory Prima Pilsner  from Pennsylvania.  It is an incredibly flavorful pilsner, thanks to the noble hops used, with a clean, crisp finish.  You will get a full floral hops nose, slightly bitter flavors with a wonderful finish.  Cadonini is a classic Italian pinot grigio with crisp flavors and a clean finish.  The nose has lemon and grassy notes, with a fruity dry flavor with a hint of lemon peel.  It is well balanced between fruit and acidity, but not as dry as most pinot grigios.  Come in to taste, drink, relax and enjoy.

Let Hattie’s cook for you this Sunday.  We are accepting all size take out orders.  What says the Fourth of July better than fried chicken and BBQ spare ribs?  Place your order now!

As most of our customers know already, Hattie’s has a pretty strict first-come first-serve policy, but this weekend we are going to loosen up and allow reservations!  Please be sure to make them now…walk-ins will be limited due to reservations.  We will see you all after you hear some wonderful Jazz and Blues.
