    If you're even within a 30 mile radius of this place and do not stop in, thats a crime. This place is out of those old time-y movies about what small-town america is like, but all the good parts. Aka, good drinks, good prices, and most importantly, really welcoming and warm people behind the bar as well as sitting at the bar! We came on a Saturday night around 9pm, it seemed to be mostly locals, about 5-6 at the time. They all knew each other, but when we walked in they were all so welcoming and kind. Being from Manhattan, I can safely say, I've never seen a bar full of people start dancing and having as good a time as these guys. Even my snowman and I had some of the locals coming up to us and talking, just like old friends. However...if they say there is live music..don't roll up at 9pm expecting to see it, as the band has probably already packed up by that point.

    It's a great locals bar made even better by their addition of The Outback. Great place to have a beer!  Live music every Friday.

    Always a good time. Friendly staff, great music, and cold beer. 20 Main never disappoints.

    Been here I believe four times now. It's a hit every time!!…read more First time I went was on an invitation, as I wasn't expecting much from a brewery. I'm not too crazy about beer, and what I'd seen from the menu seemed like mostly burgers which I also find boring. Was very happy and surprised on my first visit to find they have creative and delicious cocktails, which are more up my alley when it comes to drinks. Also this first time, I got the truffle pizza, which was *phenomenal*!! Since then, have been back 3 more times, once for a drink and to try the cucumber salad, which also sounded incredible, to also compare to a similar one I make at home. Loved it!!! Then the next two times, went with my best friend. Both times he got a different burger, while I spent most of my split tab enjoying a couple drinks. When we're not trying to spend too much, this place has generous sides of fries which are also *incredible* and cheap, so you can fill up on those while enjoying the specialty drinks So I'd say it's really nice for all sorts of tastes, and has a budget friendly food workaround too if you're more there for drinks first, as I outlined above. Highly recommend, and can't wait to be back again soon!!!!

    We have been here a few times and overall very good…read more The good: The food is good, typical pub type fare, good prices. The servers are excellent and friendly, check back frequently. Cocktail and beer selections are great. Five stars to the blood orange margarita. The bad: You can't make a reservation and the waitlist is frustrating sometimes. Parking is challenging. Also, atmosphere is typically loud making it hard to have a conversation. Overall, we like it for a quick bite and will definitely go back.

    There are some things this place does well and some that are…read morejust misses. For instance, if you get a burger, it's a good hearty size with nice fresh toppings and a pleasing amount of fries. Other options are lackluster. For instance, the chicken & french toast has so much promise. I expected 2 or 3 nice juicy chicken tenders with a couple pieces of homemade french toast, all eggy & cooked on a griddle. Nope. Three 3" hard "tenders" and a bunch of deep fried french toast sticks that arent all that dissimilar from those sold in the freezer section of the grocery. It was more of a kid's meal but it wasn't listed as such. I had hoped for something more elevated with a more homemade touch. Was it bad? No. Was i disappointed? Yes. That said, this place feels very homey and that I like a lot.

    Was driving through this town and stopped here because my wife was getting hungry. Unfortunately,…read moreI am sensitive to smell and there was a pretty rough smell. Hard to describe. The waitress was very nice. My wife liked her burger, but said she would rate the overall experience 3.5. My daughter got the French toast sticks, which she said, wasn't that great. I got the hotdog which tasted OK going down, but then I had an upset stomach for the rest of the night. I want to like this place more because it had a lot of character and charm, but I guess they can't all be winners and I want to be honest for the next folks.

    I'm thinking I don't have to write a review because it's pretty clear the place is a slam dunk…read morechoice -- lovely staff, delicious food and a Mirror Lake view -- but I will warn that the portions are on the smaller size and if you ask for a bit more bread with the cheese board, they will charge you five dollars without warning. Those aren't complaints, but for any "hungry guys" who like hearty portions, this place will run up your tab.

    Ambiance: 1000/10. Top of the Park is an absolute must on any Lake Placid trip. This rooftop tapas…read morebar, perched above Players Sports Bar and Grille, has jaw-dropping views of Mirror Lake. You can choose from bar seating, indoor tables, or outdoor spots with a perfect breeze. There's even a big street-side table that's ideal for bachelorette groups or larger parties. The whole space feels elevated, cozy, and a little magical. Drinks: The cocktail menu is insanely creative and the pours are generous. Their espresso martini is one of my all-time favorites... I stop in for one every single time I'm in Lake Placid. It's that good. Food: I think about this food at least once a week. The menu is built around shareable small plates, making it the perfect pre-dinner cocktail hour spot for your travel crew. Order a couple of drinks and a few bites while you take in the lake views before your dinner reservation. My personal must-orders: the charcuterie board and the mac and cheese. Unreal. Price: It's on the pricier side, but genuinely worth every penny. For the quality, the atmosphere, and those views? Not overpriced at all.
