Stopped by Big Z's for a games and bowling night while in Lake Placid and had a great time. The…read morebuffet was much better than expected, with a solid selection that included salad, wings, pizza, and quesadillas. The facility itself is clean, well maintained, and clearly well run. There's a nice variety of things to do beyond bowling, including arcade games and batting/golf simulators, so it's easy to spend a few hours here with family or friends. Overall, a fun spot with good food, plenty of activities, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for something to do in Lake Placid.

I recently stopped by Big Z in Lake Placid and tried their spicy chicken sandwich with fries…read more Overall, it was okay -- nothing bad, but nothing that really stood out either. The spicy chicken sandwich was pretty basic. I was expecting a little more kick, but the heat level was mild at best. The chicken itself was decent, but it didn't have that bold flavor or crispiness that makes you crave it again. It felt more like a standard chicken sandwich with a light seasoning rather than something truly "spicy." The fries were actually the highlight of the meal. They were hot, crispy, and seasoned well -- definitely better than the sandwich in my opinion. If I were to go back, it would probably be more for the fries than the main dish. The restaurant itself was nice and clean, and the atmosphere was comfortable. Staff seemed fine and everything looked well kept, which I definitely appreciate. However, the price of the food didn't quite match the flavor or overall experience. For what you pay, I was expecting something a bit more memorable.

I love this place!…read more If you like classic arcade games and pinball games from the 80's & 90's (and who doesn't), you will love The Archives! It is exactly what you would expect - an old school arcade mashed up with a bar that serves quality drink selections. They have many classics including: Ms. Pac-Man, Centipede, Dig Dug, Frogger, etc. Pinball games include: Star Wars, Pokemon, and Godzilla. The customers and workers are all super friendly. Prices are reasonable. My wife and I want to come back for some tournaments. I think I'd have a shot at Ms. Pac-man. She would dominate Star Wars.

My son is obsessed with Santa, so when I found out this place existed, I bundled it into a trip so…read morewe could also see Lake Placid as she is a huge winter sports fan. Planned the trip a few months in advance. We're up here now, and we just realized they decided to not open for the season (until November) so they could do repairs. They posted on their Instagram 2 weeks ago, however must've just updated the website more recently. I'm sure the repairs are necessary and I'm from upstate so I know how this can go--regardless, I now get to explain to a 5 year old why he can't go visit Santa's house after all. I'm sure the place is great, however I'm not trying this again. Call before you try and go.

A bit strange that my 11-year-old was not able to ride alone--need to be 13. However, I was a bit peeves that the kids ahead of us, who were no more than 10, told the worker he was 13 and was allowed to ride. Zip line was also well facilitated and maintained. Mini-golf?! Different story. Haven't played on a worse course. Standing water, ripped greens, no obstacles; just plain falling apart. Shameful.
