    Went here yesterday after visiting the area. The closest food place was A&W, so we stopped there. First time visiting, so I'll start with the young man taking the orders, which wasn't really pleasant or welcoming at all. I said "hi," and he said nothing back, lol. We ordered the chicken tender combo; we weren't asked grilled or breaded. When we got the order, it was grilled tenders. So we had to return them for breaded tenders. The chicken tender combo is $20, and I find that pretty overpriced. But I can say they tasted regular just like chicken tenders lol. They have a nice little outdoor seating area, which I thought was pretty nice. Overall, this place is just okay. I wouldn't come back here though.

    Lettuce burger lmao

    Do not go here. I've been coming here since I was a little kid and this place has gone to shit in the last 2 years. Entire staff doesn't even speak English and they have AirPods in while they work. Waited behind someone for 15 minutes who waited when it was just us and them at the entire place. Overheard that their order was wrong. Then they got my entire order wrong. Overcharged me almost $15 as well. Told me they were out of root beer floats AFTER I ordered and paid for one. Ordered a double cheeseburger and they apparently thought I ordered a fucking lettuce burger (look at the picture below). Screw this place - will never come again.

    We stopped in for lunch and ordered a double cheeseburger combo with fries and a root beer and chicken tenders with a Thai tea. The burger tasted like cheap meat, worse than the burgers you got in high school. The fries weren't bad, and the root beer tasted good as A&W root beer always does. The chicken fingers weren't bad but nothing great and the Thai tea tasted horrible, and we should've known not to order it from this place. The parking lot is tight. Burger King would be a much better choice. It seems there's no good place to eat in Lake George.

    WHEN: Sunday @ 4pm PET FRIENDLY RESTAURANT First come first serve outdoor seating area. We arrived right after lunch rush, and were able to grab an empty bench. We brought our dog, everyone were friendly to my dog and even brought our water for her. A&W was understaff. There were only 2 servers managing the front and back of the restaurant. Our server was scrambling to get each tables orders. You can tell it was so understaffed and it was stressful. Our server was friendly and welcoming. Very knowledgeable of the menu. WHAT WE ORDERED All beef coney cheese dog (regular) Wish I've gone for the foot long for a few more dollars bc I was hungry after eating it. It was a very tasty beef dog. Deluxe cheeseburger combo with fries Delicious, my fam loves it. Only downside is fries was very minimal. It didn't fill the container Regular cheeseburger Fam likes it Root beer float Diet root beer float Root beer You really can't go to A&W without getting root beer floats. It is the best to drink it at the og A&W.

    5 stars for what it is; an old school drive in. Car hops are still a thing here, although there is a small seating area. Food is delivered on a tray that hangs on the window. Root beer floats are served in frosty glass mugs, as they should be. The burgers, hot dogs, and fries are good and the prices are right. For a bit of nostalgia, or just for a fun meal, this is a must.

    Crispy onion rings and flattop griddles thin patty cheeseburgers featuring Car hops or picnic table service. Just what you want from a roadside burger stand.

    This place was a pleasant surprise. We went to the A&W in Nebraska and the kids really wanted to go to another. It's typical fast food. I got the BLT but was surprised that it came on a sesame bun. It had plenty of fresh lettuce and tomatoes. There were three thick slices of bacon. It wasn't bad. My daughter got mac and cheese kids meal. Typical box stuff but she loves it. Her kids meal came with a free ice cream. My son was pleased with his chili cheese dog. My husband had the hot chicken nuggets. He said the hot sauce was good. The price for everyone was reasonable. But the real reason for this place is the fun atmosphere. There's only outdoor seating. The waitress was great. She was patient, cheerful, and really hustled. The place was quirky. It was all outdoor seating with limited parking. There's a Delorean outside that the kids was fascinated by. Definitely a nice place to stop by.

    Clam roll

    The seafood is very fresh! I was surprised, the fish was the freshest my friend had tried, and the fried clams I ate were extremely fresh and delicious! But I'm not gonna lie, I have a problem with the rolls being -- basically plain bread with nothing, and fried seafood placed on it. They could have had some toppings, ie pickles, and more sauces -- not just dry bread out of the bag with seafood pieces thrown on it. And that bread could have been toasted or SOMETHING, just anything more was necessary. Very nice outdoor seating area! Bathroom is passable but really work on getting it as contactless as possible. You have to touch so many things with full contact because of how the sink and doorknob are - I wouldn't go unless an emergency. Popular place with many visitors.

    4 bucks for a single chicken tender, and the root beer was watered down and barely carbonated.

    SO happy about this new restaurant!!…read more My mom and I first came on their opening day. We both got a hot dog all the way and I got Cajun fries. They were all delicious! The hot dogs hate a great bite and flavor, and the meat sauce was flavorful as well. The Cajun fries were perfectly seasoned and were just soft enough and some had crispy edges, which I love. Not to mention, for a place that was packed, they were really efficient and had smiles on their faces. They kept apologizing for the wait because they didn't think they would see such a turnout, but honestly it was worth the wait! Their breakfast is just as good as their lunch! I got a breakfast sandwich with bacon and my husband got a breakfast wrap with sausage and a hash brown patty. We both got home fries. We agreed that the home fries were delicious and didn't need any ketchup. My husband also said his breakfast wrap was the best one he's ever had. There was a little of everything in each bite, which isn't the norm for a lot of places, so he really appreciated it a lot. He said the only thing he would change next time is adding hot sauce or maybe adding a Mexican hot. My bagel sandwich was also great! I love that they toast the bagel on the griddle so it also has a flavor. It was also just a little soft. They are generous with the bacon as there wasn't a single bite that didn't have a piece. I definitely prefer theirs to a lot of other local places and especially DD! This place is worth checking out!

    So happy for this place to finally open. If your in the Amsterdam area makes Guge's dogs your…read morebreakfast or lunch stop!! The meat sauce is absolutely delicious! The French fries with gravy are insanely good and something you rarely find. They are even toddler approved! Try it- you will not be disappointed. Convenient location and plenty of parking. After breakfast or lunch take a nice stroll along the beautiful Amsterdam pedestrian bridge located just steps away.
