Blue 82

An upscale contemporary lounge which serves a wide selection of wines and other premium beverages, in addition to a light fare with gourmet flourishes. Open for lunch and dinner, with later hours for the bar.

Downtown Albany finally gets its groove on and welcomes Blue 82, an upscale contemporary lounge. Blue 82 is a colorful, chic, and needed addition to the area. Patrons seeking a little nourishment can sample such dishes as flat-bread pizzas, quesadillas, paninis, and desserts. Specialty drinks are plentiful, and include: the Cha-Cha mojito: Bacardi Razz rum muddled with fresh lime, mint, raspberries and sugar); Moet White Star champagne; and Scotch (nearly 15 offerings). The sleek interior is anchored by The Wall, a 96 square-foot focal point located behind the bar that alternates its glowing illumination between lemon, tangerine, salmon, wintergreen, lime, magenta, grape, azure, and blueberry. It's a stunning statement for a newcomer, and this place is sure to make its mark for a long time to come.
