    In town visiting and really felt like having an iced caffeinated beverage. The staff was very helpful in helping me decide which drink to choose. They all sounded delicious and if I lived closer I would keep coming back to try them all. Denise got extra excited when she described the Maple Latte to me. I was sold on getting the BARK EATER Iced Latte (oat milk)! To complement my drink I added their giant peanut butter cookies. Let me tell you.. The joy I experienced was heavenly. Soo glad I came in today and I will be back!!

    I'm not a big salad eater, but I did order one here. They had a fairly wide range of options... ended up ordering a Little Crow because it had spinach and also goat cheese which I really love. The salad was fine and came with a delicious maple vinaigrette. Unfortunately they were fairly stingy with the goat cheese and bacon... there was only a minimal amount of both. Pickup was very easy (covid times). I arrived a few minutes after ordering and the food was waiting for me in a bag outside the restaurant.

    Very skimpy on the meats.  Not a good value

    Great location with friendly service. They have 46 different sandwiches that represent the 46 peaks above 4K feet. Menu is huge and there's something for everyone. Our issue was the very little amount of filling on these sandwiches. Just not a good value for a 10.00 sandwich. Lots of options in the area. Likely won't return

    Gothics Sandwich yum!!!!

    Hands down some of the best sandwiches in town! My coworker and I love the 10 Gothics with nice quality roast beef, blue cheese crumbles that perfectly compliment the sandwich on a fresh hearty roll. Drooling just thinking about it :)

    Worst breakfast I have ever had! I could have made a better breakfast in the microwave in my hotel room. Sad!

We spent the week in Lake Placid for Spring Break, and we could not have been more happy to find this place, especially since we had our dog with us. Lisa G's feels like the kind of place you wish you had back home. We sat out on the porch with a perfect view of the water and our golden retriever happily at our feet. That alone would have been enough, but the food made sure we stayed awhile. We started with the wings. These are true buffalo wings. Not breaded, just well sauced and done right. We also ordered the cheese treat and it completely stole the show. Feta, spices, and jalapenos over fresh arugula, scooped onto toasted bread. It is one of those dishes where you keep saying just one more bite until suddenly it is gone. For dinner we tried the shrimp tacos, which have quite a reputation. As Texas people we were a little unsure about the pineapple salsa, but it works. Bright and just sweet enough. The slaw is mellow and tangy and ties everything together in a way that feels thoughtful rather than trendy. The fish and fries surprised us the most. Easily the best fish and chips we have had in years. Real haddock with a light crisp fry and a rich house made tartar sauce that does not play second fiddle. Chance said he usually only likes fish and chips for the fried part, but here he actually liked the fish itself. That tells you everything. The fries are the kind you keep reaching for long after you are full. Our teen ordered the burger and it disappeared before we could negotiate a bite. Former picky eaters do not lie. We tried the Julian cocktail, which drinks like a confident mai tai. The riesling missed the mark a bit. Next time we would go for the sauvignon blanc or the house white. The service felt like the best version of small town hospitality. Warm, easy, and full of good local recommendations. Our pup loved it. We loved it. We will be back. --Chance and Becky All Ahead Slow

    I have a bit of a story about Generations. Seven years ago,…read moremy family stopped in while visiting Lake Placid and, unfortunately, it was a pretty rough experience. After waiting over an hour for our food with no updates in sight, we finally left hungry and declared we'd never return. (We've all made dramatic vacation proclamations before!) When we got home, I wrote to the restaurant, and Natasha, the manager, personally responded with a sincere apology. She explained they had been incredibly short-staffed and invited us to come back if we were ever in Lake Placid again, promising a better experience. Well, seven years later, my sons found themselves in Lake Placid with friends and decided to give Generations another chance. They asked if Natasha was still there, and amazingly, she was! Not only that, but she remembered my email from all those years ago. This time, everything was wonderful. Great food, attentive service, a relaxing outdoor table, and happy young men!--which is review enough! To top it all off, when they asked for the check, they were told the meal was on the house. Natasha's kindness, grace, and commitment to making things right left a lasting impression. Thank you for turning a not-so-great memory into a great one. Cheers to Natasha and the team at Generations!

    Not worth the wait. Gave our name and they said 25 minutes…read morewe were fine with that. A table stood empty the entire time we waited. Serval more opened within those 25 minutes and sat empty. . My daughter had the chicken sandwhich she said it was good. Mojito mocktail & my ST Germain spritz were very good. I ordered the lobster tacos, I was asked fries or chips I said fries no salt he said they come into the restaurant seasoned. I said chips then he said they also seasoned I can substitute salad. Was surprised when the salad came out and it was in its own dish not on the side of the plate. There was a charge of $3 dollars for the salad on the bill I questioned the server and he said there is a fee for substitutions it is stated in the menu. My menu was closed when I placed the order. I didn't ask he told me he can substitute. When he told me he can substitute he should have mentioned that there was a fee.
