Great sports bar for dinner, drinks, and hanging out. They also have an additional rooftop space which is great for the summer. We stopped in for dinner and got the pineapple burger and birria bowl, both of which were so good. The burger was awesome, so yummy and hit the spot! They also have a great selection of beers too. Service was great and efficient. Definitely a good spot to go to in Saranac Lake read more

The fish tacos are eye-rolling good! And a very generous portion of four plus salad topping. Husband had the chicken Ceaser, also fab! The best part may have been Cade who bartends on the roof deck. He not only recommended the best dishes and great beers, he was kind enough to give us an overview of the area as well as recommend what to see and where to hike (the VIC -fantastic!). He was way better than AI, plus kind and cute. We were the only table for a while so he wasn't ignoring others. Also, the deck was refreshingly cool on a hot day, and very beautifully decorated. Highly recommend! read more

We visited on a busy Saturday night, so it took a bit for our entrees, however it was quite alright though, because we had some great cocktails in the meantime! I got a birria bowl which was great, and if I ordered again I would just order some extra cheese! My partner got the chief burger and was happy with his choice. We were able to snag some seats at the bar which was our preference, but there were some available tables in the back dining area, too. There were a few items on the menu they were out of but I'd come back just to try the pho! read more

It was Taco Tuesday, and we ordered Guac and chips, pork tacos with rice and BBQ black beans. We were so impressed with the southwest authenticity and slightly sweet twist on the beans. All the small touches were impressive. Limes, cotija, crispy homemade corn chips, housemade guacamole. We also ordered a burger and fries. Equally delicious. read more

A convenient spot for a quick lunch. We visited on Columbus Day, and it was very busy since the kids were out of school. We enjoyed burgers and ciders, which were quite good, and the service was excellent. Our total, including tip, came to $60. Definitely give this place a try, especially since there aren't many dining options in Saranac Lake, at least during the off-season. read more

Everything- great food..great service..friendly atmosphere..very accommodating Must go read more

Bitters & Bones - Korean Beef was outstanding at Bitters and Bones....love the Mango Wheat Beer! - American Near Me - Saranac Lake, New York

I'll start by saying that we arrived and were very confused. There was a lack of communication from any server or hostess about where we could sit, if we had to be seated or could seat ourselves. We wanted to be outside, so we did go up to the front deck and unfortunately there were no tables. There was also no seating on the back deck except at the bar. Ultimately, we decided to go to the front deck again and order some drinks and sit on the couches where we waited until a table opened up. Then we swooped in like falcons as soon as a table was available. So after that first bit, we were finally seated and ordered some food and more drinks. I ordered the brussels sprouts and a burrata salad. I really enjoyed the brussels sprouts, and the burrata itself was great - though I would have enjoyed larger slices of heirloom tomatoes instead of the chopped up bits that reminded me of pico. At least it all tasted great. The service was very good. The two guys manning the bar on the front deck were great. The girl that brought up our meals was friendly. We enjoyed sitting and taking in the town. I recommend going early so you can get a table or get some drinks and then grab a table as soon as one opens up. A friendly atmosphere definitely makes this a hoppin' spot in town. read more

Stopped in Bitters and Bones last night. They were slammed because of the rain . They managed to seat us and our waiter brought us our drinks and apologized the wait . He was great in spite of being slammed. Anyhoo- our table ordered poke bowls and fish and chips. They were all out of the park delicious. I love poke bowls and mine was outstanding. Great job . read more

Fun vibe. Prompt and kind service even on a busy night. We didn't care too much for the whipped buratta. That doesn't mean you wont like it though. Veggies were fresh. It's just a matter of taste and it didn't land for us. It was okay. Some marinated tomatoes or olives would help round it out for our palates. But we loved our Asian burger. And the fries were to die for. Beer selection was good and I like that there was indoor outdoor seating. read more

Great tastes Sticky and messy (as expected) wings- I ordered two different styles. Excellent Bitters Burger. Top notch unsweetened Iced Tea Excellent service Good music A+ experience! Took most of it with me for tomorrow's meals. This place has been around for a while and I always meant to stop in when I'm in the area. I finally did and boy am I glad I did. Don't hesitate to try it out. read more

Great food. The pho was savory and had the perfect amount of flavor. Better than most Vietnamese restaurants I went to. The Bitters Burger was juicy,saucy,and the fries were good. Service was friendly but a little slow. Took awhile to get things right but still pleasant. Restaurant had cozy good vibes. read more

The steaks are quite excellent People are very very nice I would recommend them to anyone

When I went there their online menu didn't match their menu in person, which is problematic for anyone with dietary restrictions. They had some vegetarian options but less than their website reflected. food was okay. Not bad, not great. Service was fine... read more

My go to place when in Saranac Lake. Everything I've tried on the menu has been excellent! The staff is extremely friendly and truly make you feel welcome! read more

Fun place- lots of energy. Super interesting menu--- soooo delicious! We had the Ropa Vieja Bowl and Carne A La Parrilla, and of course the home brewed Real Home Town IPA. The joint was jumping, and our server Madisyn was super kind, helpful, and attentive, even having so many tables. Highly recommend! read more

Absolutely amazing friendly, accommodating staff that got us in and seated even though they were in-between breakfast and lunch. The burger we had was great and the meat locally sourced. Absolutely delicious! read more

Run from lake placid as fast as you can to this establishment! Food and drink OUTSTANDING! We loved the street tacos and the Greek gyro- they were NOT run of the mill , but made by a chef who cares about taste! The drinks (bourbon smash) were delicious. No place in lake placid compares to this! Highly recommend read more

Great menu, unique options! Sat at the bar, bartender was friendly and efficient even with a full restaurant, she was the only server and managed the bar and tables with ease. Perfect stop for lunch on our way home from Lake Placid, will be a regular go to for us. Loved it! read more

Great food and a nice small town joint feel. Folks are friendly, limited seating and mostly hi top stools, but well worth the stop. We had multiple locals recommend this place, glad they did! read more

We walked over from the Hotel Saranac and were quickly greeted, and sat where we wanted. Our drinks arrived quickly, our waiter was very helpful. Appetizers delivered, sooo delicious ( we had the dumplings). It was very difficult to choose from all of the delicious options for dinner. We decided on the street tacos and the gyros, both were amazing. As we were discussing how delectable everything we was. We looked around and Donny were licking their plates and fingers. It's that good!! I would 10 out of 10 return to Bitters & Bones to try other things on the menu. Go now!! read more

This was our second time at Bitters & Bones and we enjoyed it even more this time. We came for dinner and sat outside enjoying a great breeze and delicious burgers and cocktails. Our server was friendly and efficient. After the meal we ventured to the bar out back where there was live music. The staff there were super friendly and gave us cool tips on the area and some live music venues. Fun place! read more

Very busy so we end up sitting at bar. Bartender was very nice with a great smile. The food was fantastic. A little of an Asian influence. We had poke nachos (definitely not your classic nachos but was very tasty) for appetizer then bitters burger and all American burger. Very delicious! read more

We wanted to eat local tonight rather than going back to Lake Placid so we decided to try Bitters and Bones. Glad we did! The restaurant was busy but we found a seat quickly. Staff was friendly and attentive. Gives off a local favorite vibe. There was quite a bit of seating in the front room, another room a few steps up from there, and also rooftop seating. We didn't venture up to the roof as it looked quite crowded from the outside. Hubby got an in-house brew and a shot of bourbon for $11. I ordered one of the summer cocktails which was refreshing. For dinner I had the Ropa Vieja Bowl and hubby had Carne A La Parrilla. We also had wings with Thai Maple sauce. Food was excellent and portions were generous. I ended up boxing up more than half of my bowl which can easily be another full meal. I didn't take pics except for the leftovers that I brought back to the hotel. I would recommend this local gem. read more

Everything about Bitters & Bones is top notch. Been a customer many times and many times to come. Thank you Bitters & Bones for amazing food with outstanding servers & owners and a welcoming atmosphere. read more

4 stars because it is so packed and loud every time we come here, but the food is always amazing. I vacation in the Adirondacks every summer and we try to eat here once each time we visit. We have definitely had to leave before due to the long wait but that's not their fault. It's not a place to go if you're looking for quiet and relaxing as you will likely have to yell at the person next to you to have a conversation. read more

This place rocks, so much yum & good vibes! I love it when the outdoor decks are open.

This was so good ... I highly recommend stopping by here to try the menu. It's the best that I have had in a while read more

Our waitress was GREAT once we got seated.. walked in and no one directed or greeted us... we wanted to sit outside but had no clue where to go and bartender didn't assist. We found upstairs walked up there and no tables available again.. no one upstairs assisted and we clearly looked lost... went back down stairs and kinda hung out by the door until a server came over and seated us. Food was great and Snake bite drink was awesome! I got the quesadilla can't remember what my husband got hahaha.. Only other less than desirable part was a regular came in with a beer in his hand being quite obnoxious at 5pm, bartender did ask him to quiet down thank goodness. read more

Best dumplings ever. Beer is tasty. Service was outstanding. Can't wait to return and have a meal.

Great spot for food and drinks! It looks like a dive bar from the outside but the menu is Asian fusion and great food!! We had a party of 13 and they normally don't take reservations but they agreed to set aside a table for us on a busy Saturday night!! Cade was our server and he was an absolute dream!! He put up with all our antics and made sure he got every drink and food order correct! We ordered spinach and artichoke dip which was spicy but great! Fried pickles which were spears and dumplings! Mains - highlights were the Korean bowls and the salmon!! They have a great kimchi! You wouldn't think that middle of upstate would have great Korean food but it was top tier!! Overall a great spot for groups or just some drinks! read more

We enjoyed a good breakfast, with quick and friendly service. The atmosphere and decor is great...feels like a neighborhood haunt.

stopped in here midweek with my daughter while we were on vacation in the area. We sat on the top deck where we met our server and the bartender from Florida. It was a slow night so we got to chat a bit. They were lovely. Food was good and varied. The next time I am 300 miles away from home. I will definitely stop in to discuss my margarita truck idea with them. read more

I was really excited to go to the spot because it had good ratings but when I got there, I put my name on the list and then was completely ignored and the staff ended up seating people that came in after me. This was completely disrespectful and unexpected as I will never return here. This is very disappointing from a place that has higher reviews online sorry bitters and bones, but you are not doing well in this industry. Please improve on your customer service. read more

Had high hopes for breakfast here as it came recommend by a local and we gave loved the rooftop bar for lunch and drinks, but we were sorely disappointed. We waited quite some time for food (an omelette and fried eggs). When the came out the eggs seemed to be bathed in oil and not cooked to order and the hash browns were barely a portion. Maybe it was because it was at the tail end of their breakfast service. But we won't be doing that again. read more
