They have a variety of tap beers, wine and cocktails. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. My friend just ordered a glass of beer that he loved. I opted out to drink since I wanted to eat first and my food was back in the hotel room. I saw customers with different flight drinks with cocktails and wine. I definitely wanted to check out the hot chocolate booze drink and will do so when I return to the area. This is a spot I would like to return and take my time and enjoy some drinks.

GORGEOUS. I can't believe there aren't that more reviews!…read more Atop a beautiful hill- great view of sailboats on the water, along with benches/ Hackey sack/ and plenty of seating! We had a semi-dry, sweet wine tasting! Our assessments: 1. Maple - our favorite! I personally couldn't taste the maple as much but undeniably sweet, but not very that it's overwhelming 2. Brianna - smooth, not too rich, a close runner up to the Maple 3. Highlands Blush - taste like strawberry! Delicious! 4. Arctic Fox - cool and smooth. Wasn't a favorite among the group, but personally I wanted a bottle. 5. Riesling - still delicious, but no surprises here - expected 6. Aromella - very fruity! Looked like a family was running this place. The older lady who served us was so friendly and explained how they make their own maple syrup too! We bought a bunch and can't wait to try.

As we were winding down our day touring Lake Placid, we noticed a sign at the hotel advertising…read moretheir rooftop bar. My wife and I are big fans of rooftop bar so we decided to give it a shot. It was a slow elevator right to the top. The view, was not too bad; however, the roof shuts out and obstruct some of the view of Lake Placid. It is not a fully stock rooftop bar. They had no Campari or sweet vermouth so Manhattans were off the menu, I decided on one of their specialty drinks, lemon bourbon smash. Not a fan. Had to order a beer to get the taste out of my mouth. My wife thought it looked like dishwater. My wife's wine was cold and delicious. If and when we ever get to Lake Placid again, we certainly will not be visiting the rooftop bar unless the convert to a full bar.

The website advertises "artisanal handcrafted cocktails", we thought the drinks were terrible. I didn't like the Lemon Bourbon Smash or the Spicy Margarita, they both tasted watered down.

While in town for a conference I came in for BBQ for dinner one evening and sat at the bar. The…read morelady working the bar was great, very helpful, friendly, and personable. Their menu is loaded with all sorts of BBQ style food, as well as steaks and some seafood too. The décor is nice, cozy, and dimly lit. I started with their wings with the Ghost Pepper BBQ sauce on them - They were REALLY GOOD! Meaty wings, great crunch and smokey flavor and that BBQ sauce was so tasty! Next up was to try an order of their brisket nachos. They came out pretty quick and looked nice. They're definitely huge and I wasn't that hungry, so I really wanted to pick the good stuff, like the brisket and many of the toppings and that was all pretty good. The brisket I had was excellent! It had a nice bark and good smoke, yet was moist. Very nice experience, a place I'd definitely return to for another meal or even a drink at the bar!

I was a server for a very long time. Side work sucks. However, neglecting your guests so you can get a jump on roll ups is just poor.

There are several wine and liquor stores in Lake Placid (based on how people seem to socialize…read morethere, there certainly seems to be enough business to sustain several liquor stores....). Of them all, Terry Robards has emerged as my favorite. They have a pretty decent selection of wines for their size, including some interesting and non-typical selections. The people there know the stock well, and when I went on a Sunday and had a question about a purchase and the salesperson DIDN'T know anything about the bottle I was interested in, she called the owner (impressive). They are very friendly - significantly friendlier than the folks at the other stores, based on my experience. And they are very dog-friendly, which I really like. And they give a 10% discount on wines, and 7% on spirits (why they don't just lower the prices, I can't say - I assume there's some reason they do it this way). In any case, Terry Robards has emerged as my favorite liquor store in Lake Placid (and it doesn't hurt that it is in the same small plaza as the Mini Euro Mart, which I love - if you're going to have people over for drinks, you can get everything you need in one stop).

Ruby welcomed us to the tasting room and patiently poured and explored with us the several kinds we were considering.

Every day should be this good. Our day at the Shelburne Vineyard far exceeded all our expectations…read more We didn't want to leave. We were there on a Sunday, a beautiful spring day - the sun shining and the small group of visitors kept growing as the afternoon progressed. Unknown to us, the Vineyard had a busy agenda planned, but first they steered us to a grassy area away from their main parking area to park for the night. We went inside to the cool and comfortable wine tasting room and were greeted by a very friendly engaging staff. Ruby offered us a sample and ran through their day's agenda. A talented group of musicians were setting up their equipment on the shaded patio outside while guests were spreading blankets on the lawn or setting up a picnic on one of the several available tables. We were meeting old friends there and hoped we could find a seat. The band played much of the music that I grew up on (Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young, the Dead, and lots more.) We picked out a few bottles to put in the frig in our rig ... then went back inside. Our friends (that live nearby in Vermont) joined us first inside where we shared a charcuterie board. We later moved to our Class B with them and enjoyed our little picnic, accompanied by their delicious wines. Then late in the afternoon, we went back inside because a jazz ensemble was to perform. The sun was still shining and everyone there was feeling the vibes. We met the owner who had a staff that he should be very proud of - they were very gracious to all the guests that came through. Be sure and stay here if it's in your path.
