Came here after a full day of hiking and was starving for food. Fortunately there weren't many people at this hour so I was able to be serviced very quickly. I ordered the chili to warm me up, as well as the Mountain Burger with a side of salad. The chili was much larger than expected and came with a side of cheese cornbread. It was quite good though I personally would have added some salt and pepper. As for the burger it was very enjoyable, though possibly owing to my physically destroyed state at the time. I especially enjoyed how the buns were toasted, as well as the crispness of the toppings. The salad was quite refreshing as well. Honestly my own gripe with my meal was how expensive it ended up being; particularly the pricing of the burger in contrast to past burgers I've had. As for everything else, well as an avid hiker I really love the decor of this place and have nothing but good things to say about the service.

We were greeted immediately upon entry and welcomed to select our own table. Menus provided and specials given verbally. This is a detail I find is often skipped these days and I truly appreciated both a paper menu and a listing of the specials verbally. We enjoyed the map mural of the peaks and so happened to sit below the portion that illustrated the peak we climbed this morning. There's a fireplace and lots of wood and branch elements which perfectly complement the stone floor. Overall it is a tasteful and not at all knick knacky Adirondack motif which is of course exactly what we're here to enjoy. The iced teas were cold and arrived unsweetened - which we loved. The soup du jour was a shrimp & crab bisque. I failed to get a pic of it due to my intrusive appetite and the amazingly delicious aroma of it- but a slice of baguette in a creamy bisque chock full of perfectly crisp shrimp and lump crab in quite a deep bowl lured me in. It was worth every bit of the $10 asking price. We did not order a cocktail but the gentleman beside us enjoyed his first and ordered the same again so it couldn't have been bad. Our main course for both of us were the Climbed a Mountain burger and they were both a true medium rare. Perfectly seasoned, it was a pleasure to bite into a brioche bun which did not overpower the burger, but truly the brightest spot in this burger which will bring me back again and again was the house made pickles in the burger. If you, like I, love a crisp, properly seasoned and pickled cucumber which adds more than just a tang of vinegar to your burger... run. Do not walk. Get yourself in here and taste for yourself. Service was friendly, prompt, never pushy and very kind. Just our kind of place and something we have not been finding in Keene of late. We will most definitely be back. Side note: the restrooms are individual and set apart from the main dining area which again is such a nice detail. They were also pleasingly decorated and scrupulously clean.

Food was fresh, flavorful and delicious. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is nice and relaxed. It's a small dining area, so reservations are definitely recommend. As for the food, it was delicious! I had the roast chicken which was very flavorful and juicy. My husband had the pork chili verde and said he just could not stop eating it. The dessert was to die for! Lemon eggless custard with blueberry compote and a corn cookie. The only thing I noticed was that they did not have everything on the menu. They ran out of the Brussel sprout appetizer which was exactly what we wanted. They also had 4 desserts listed, but told us they only had 2. Of course the one I was looking at they didn't have! But we were ok with that since everything we did have was delicious.

Be prepared to pay a pretty penny for this restaurant, because it's expensive. First the brussels sprouts were 19$ and they were too fried. Then the salad was fine not worth 15$. Next the burger and chili were good. Finally the 25$ pork chop had too much sauce and too much fat. As for the service so if you make a reservation the table, ready for you with water, menus and everything. They make the 50 decently fast, and the server was nice attentive, and recommendable. The place had comfy furniture and looked fine. I think there were decorations on the wall but I forgot. All in all just too expensive for what you get.

Would highly recommend this restaurant tucked away from the touristy parts of ADK in Keene. Definitely make reservations a few days in advance as it is a small dining area but very cozy. The food was amazing and we especially liked the variety as I usually don't see duck on most menus. The lamb was so tender and the sauces on both were delicious. The appetiser meat and cheese platter we got was very good and had bison meatballs and a very tasty cheese with pickled veggies. Wonderful dining option if you are looking for something that offers some unique variety and great taste.

5 stars all around! This place is exactly the kind of restaurant I LOVE to find. Farm to table, made from scratch, flavorful fine dining. My husband and I were visiting from oot and staying at the Roostercomb Inn. There aren't a lot of food options in the Keane Valley area, and Lake Placid honestly isn't worth the drive (the food there is overpriced and nothing to write home about). This place is well above the rest and really made our trip! We ate here two nights in a row, Monday & Tuesday. Quick note - they are closed on Wednesday & Thursdays and their kitchen closes around 8:30pm so plan accordingly. Monday night we just got into town and wanted some good food after eating quick & dirty the last 24 hrs. We had been eyeing Forty Six from Yelp and this place lived up to the hype! It's very cute inside & out with a good amount of tables and an outside patio as well. (No dogs allowed though) We started out with the Summer Corn Chowder to share. It was a big portion and had charred corn, potatoes, peppers, and a medley of veggies with sunflower wheat croutons. It was really delicious and thoughtfully made. For our entrees, my husband ordered the Whisky Peppercorn Steak cooked rare with White Truffle Fries and I ordered the special: Braised Short Ribs in Burgundy Sauce over Polenta with Roasted Carrots. Wow! The prices are justified, if you were wondering. The meat is locally sourced, and the Chef is very talented. My husbands Whisky Peppercorn Steak was huge and full of flavor! It was cooked to the right temp, the fries were great, and he liked the still crunchy roasted carrots. I was also soooo happy I ordered the short rib! The sauce was so good I could drink it! I almost thought the side was mashed potatoes with corn in it, till I remembered that it was polenta. I think it's the best polenta I've had, and the roasted carrots really rounded out the meal. We both had leftovers that we packaged up and enjoyed later that evening. Even reheated, it was all so good! The Chef was also kind enough to give me some extra of that Burgundy Sauce to go. Tuesday we did a 10 mile turned 13 mile hike to Indian Head & Rainbow Falls. Around 7pm we realized dinner was going to be a bust if we didn't run down the mountain, so we booked it and called them the minute we got service. They weren't able to accommodate to-go orders and their kitchen was closing at 8:30pm, so we hustled as fast as we could and made it to the restaurant around 8:05pm, putting our orders in by 8:15pm. As we waited for our food we saw multiple not-so-lucky hikers and locals be turned away, so we really were SO lucky to have made it in time! We both ordered the Mountain Burger, mine all the way with chips, and my Husbands with just cheese and fries. I asked the waitress if I could pay for a side of the Sour Cream & Chive dip, and she was able to make it happen! I actually wasn't charged for it either, which was really nice. The burgers were huge, the meat was perfectly cooked and definitely local, and we both had trouble finishing it all again - even after that long hike! Paired with a Boylan's Black Cherry, it was the perfect meal and we were so grateful. It started getting cold and buggy on the patio, so we left before getting dessert, but the waitress let us get two cookies to go. Service was also very good both times, even the hostess was so kind and helpful! This place gets busy but the staff handles it so gracefully. Overall this place was the best meal of our trip! You can tell they are so thoughtful and talented. Keane Valley is lucky to have Forty Six and we will be back to visit again soon!

Nice little farm to table spot in Keene off the 73 going up to Lake Placid. Fresh, local ingredients, simple and perfectly seasoned to let the ingredients come thru. We got: Crispy Brussels with radish and blue cheese Mushroom tart Seared ribeye with truffle parm fries Burger Salmon Venison chop and trout special with risotto and vegetables The mushroom tart was outstanding. Just spot on. Very reasonably priced. Would definitely come back thru.

I had never visited the popular cafe that used to occupy this spot, but I like what's going on now. My trips through Keene are in the daytime when there is a short, smart lunch menu featuring sandwiches and small plates. Service was quick and pleasant. I had a house-smoked brisket sandwich, which comes with melted cheese and tomato jam. I usually like my brisket unadorned but this combo worked well. They subbed a house salad for the fries, which was a good choice. On the server's advice I tried the apple sage dressing, a bit creamy and sweet but not too much. Recommended. The other diners were on their way to or from hikes or other outdoor adventures and this was a good spot to take a load off and refuel. Decor is rustic furniture from the store next door; you can stroll over after your meal and check the selection.

Forty -Six has captured the true essence of the high peaks interpreted through their fine dining experience From the simple but beautiful decor of pine Wayne's coating painted in forest green and topped above with hand painted pen and ink drawings of the 46 peaks. Over the stone flooring. The dim lighting and subtle but pleasant music enhances rather than overwhelms... but the food is by far the center stage. I had the lentil soup with Indian curry spices and micro greens, the most tender and delicious lamb chops I've ever tasted and I finished with a memorable and perfect sized portion of chocolate mouse. The service was attentive, expedient and personal. If you're in the area, make a reservation and experience it yourself!

Ok this place has the most amazing burger. The server was very nice and inviting. Ambiance was definitely a low light, quite kind of a place. It was a little on the pricey side but man that burger was good. Next time i am up this way i will be eating here again.
