84 AMBIANCE 4/5 SERVICE 8/10 SELECTION 13/15 FOOD 8/10 VALUE 8/10 OVERALL 17/20 Runforfuntoday (3) Webster, Massachusetts | January 30, 2013 Wonderful beer selection. Very friendly staff. Great music. | 46 AMBIANCE 4/5 SERVICE 5/10 SELECTION 8/15 FOOD 6/10 VALUE 6/10 OVERALL 6/20 NotWthoutStout (1) Wharton, New Jersey | October 20, 2012 After a weeklong camping trip in the Dak’s we stopped in here to have a good lunch and of course sample the microbrews. The place is done up real nice but despite the whole area being alive with tourism the place was mostly empty, should’ve been a sign. Had a good selection of beers so I figured I’d try the sampler, but it specifically excluded two brews of a particularly special style - A Barley Wine and something else that I really wanted to sample. Of the seven beers on the sampler, one was barely decent, the rest all pretty much tasted the same, mostly green (rushed) & watery. The food wasn’t terrible but nothing special at all either. The service was mostly inattentive and not very friendly. My first visit to this place was my last. | 80 AMBIANCE 4/5 SERVICE 8/10 SELECTION 12/15 FOOD N/A VALUE 8/10 OVERALL 16/20 changeup45 (100) Mount Dora, Florida | July 19, 2012 I’ve been to Lake George several times before but my recent visit was the first time I checked this place out. It has a bit of a rustic look with a modern twist. A large outdoor area has plenty of seating under an enclosed area as well as a section if you want to get some sun. Indoor seating is ample, with a bar area that’s surrounded by nooks with tables giving it a cool vibe. The wait staff at first seemed preoccupied with the reporter there doing a story on their recent expansion, which is understanding. They weren’t busy so my service was not at all lacking, and when given the opportunity, they offered some insight on my upcoming beer stops. I did not try the food this time, maybe next. I had three of their beers and while they weren’t mind blowing I thought they were quite good. Better than expected, actually. I think they had 10 or so different brews on tap and more in bottles. They had a nice selection of various styles - IPAs, Wheats, Stouts, a Brown, a Rye Pale, among others. I heard mention of a BA Triple they just bottled but didn’t grab any. Nice conversation at the bar with another craft beer fan. Great time. | 80 AMBIANCE 4/5 SERVICE 8/10 SELECTION 12/15 FOOD N/A VALUE 8/10 OVERALL 16/20 deyholla (200) Oklahoma City, Oklahoma | May 17, 2012 I was pleasently surprised when I stopped in. Enjoyed a number of samples out on there deck. In side had a rustic feel. Service was fine and server was able to answer my questions. Everything was well priced. Didn’t have the food. Worth a stop! | 78 AMBIANCE 4/5 SERVICE 8/10 SELECTION 12/15 FOOD 8/10 VALUE 8/10 OVERALL 15/20 tgncc (58) Bellmore, New York | February 18, 2012 The atmosphere is nice enough. It has the appearance of an old log cabin. It’s a little rundown on the inside though. They have numerous menu items and signs on the tables are ou of date, which was aggravating. The service was friendly and attentive. The beers were certainly decent enough, and the food was actually good. The prices were pretty reasonable, especially for a tourist trap area. They have a reasonably priced gift shop where you can take some of their beers home, as well as some other things. Worth checking out if you are nearby. | 60 AMBIANCE 3/5 SERVICE 5/10 SELECTION 7/15 FOOD 7/10 VALUE 7/10 OVERALL 15/20 shadey (51) Nashville, Tennessee | July 22, 2011 Bit of a tourist trap for the area. Lake George has unfortunately become heavily trafficked in the summer time and people expect the comforts of home instead of the Adirondack experience. The beer was good and the food was good, but it was far too crowded to be enjoyable. The servers were over-worked and grouchy. | 66 AMBIANCE 2/5 SERVICE 8/10 SELECTION 9/15 FOOD 7/10 VALUE 6/10 OVERALL 14/20 flatmatt (53) Ann Arbor, Michigan | June 25, 2011 Much better than I was expecting. Ambiance is pretty much like any old "up north lodge." Much wider selection than I expected, though, with a couple beers in the 10% range. Pretty good quality as well. The food was quite good as well. We were there for a quick lunch mid-afternoon, and service was prompt with an informative bartender. So yeah, not bad in a tourist town. | 86 AMBIANCE 3/5 SERVICE 10/10 SELECTION 12/15 FOOD 7/10 VALUE 10/10 OVERALL 18/20 Cletus (217) Connecticut | July 19, 2010 Located at the tip of the tourist trap southern tip of the lake. This place offers food that is much better than the overpriced garbage you can get at places with a sea view, and lousy Mexican joints. The beer selection is also great with their beers all being well-crafted. This place gets insanely crowded, especially during the tourist season, but is well worth a visit. | 70 AMBIANCE 4/5 SERVICE 7/10 SELECTION 10/15 FOOD 7/10 VALUE 7/10 OVERALL 14/20 chronictonic (49) Oreland, Pennsylvania | June 27, 2010 Took our 2 1/2 year old with us for dinner. Server was on it giving us crayons and a paper place mat (so good for kids). Only flaw on the beer selection was no IPA currently on. Otherwise, good selection of mostly lighter bodied beers with one 10.7% scottish ale and a coffee stout (but only 3.7% on that one). Service was good - not outstanding, but certainly not poor. Food - burgers - were good, properly cooked and flavorful. Was a bit pricey (kids menu had a $13.95 chicken parm! but kids chicken fingers were $5.95 and a huge serving). 2 "Rodeo" burgers, fry upgrade to sweet potato fries, kids chicken fingers, 4 beers plus a pint glass was $56 - which I guess isn’t too bad for a tourist town. | 64 AMBIANCE 4/5 SERVICE 6/10 SELECTION 9/15 FOOD 7/10 VALUE 7/10 OVERALL 13/20 j12601 (262) Poughkeepsie, New York | November 23, 2009 Had a lazy lunch and tried all of the beers they had on tap. Beers ranged from pretty good to downright undrinkable. Food was pretty good, but the service was slow and a bit lacking. It was a slow Saturday afternoon at the end of tourist season, so they weren’t crowded or anything and I’d expect most of the staff had been there through the thick of summer, so that was a bit of a let down. Nice atmosphere and decor and located within a nice walk of most of the rest of the good tourist spots in the village. |
