    Caribbean Cowboy. Fantastic burgers, very good food generally. Full bar. Reasonably priced. Nice crowd, pretty good service. Not fancy. Shares a building with Saranac Sourdough (the Caribbean Cowboy is in the back), on the same side as and just past the Rite-Aid as you go from Lake Placid towards Saranac. Highly recommended

      What are their prices? Problem with Lake Placid is that you can usually get a good $5.00 sandwich for $9.00

        Only $9.00! You must eat at the cheap places in Placid during the off season.

          Noonmark Diner

          Came back to LI from a week in the ADKS with my brother, his wife and three girls. We stopped by the Noonmark Diner this morning for breakfast despite all the negative stuff on this forum about it. I used to LOVE their blueberry pancakes and guess what? STILL DO! We had great food and it wasn't expensive. Service was fast and friendly.


          Just my 2 cents.

            Great meal!

            Well, I'm back home in MN. On my way back to Syracuse, I stopped at the Buffalo Head Resturant ("Famous for food!") off of Hwy. 28 in Forestport and had a huge meal, well prepared, nicely served and under 20 bucks, with desert! Had the 16 oz. sirloin with salad and potato. It was done the way I wanted it, and the service was great, despite the huge crowd on Friday night. (and I still had enough meat for a sandwich the next evening--I had a cooler.) I know, technically, it's not in the forest preserve, but it's on the primary way in and out for a lot of folks. I'd never been there before and thought it was great.

            There was a place in Tupper the night before, but I have to look up the name. It was really good too. I put on some much un-needed weight this trip.

            Later,

              Stop by the Cascade Inn just south of the turnoff to Adirondack Loj. Every Saturday they have an all you can eat prime rib for $17.95. Boy did it taste good a couple of weeks ago after topping off the Macintyre Range.

                I just got home last night from a week in the High Peaks----
                Here's my 2 cents.....
                Jimmy's 21 and Pete's Steakhouse on Main St. in L.P. were awesome- expensive.. But, we had great food and great service.. :headbang:

                The Wilderness Inn II had pretty good food. If you had food at the bar it was cheap and a lot of food. For some reason everything was a lot more expensive when you sat in the dining room

                Tail of the Pup--- We had an awesome lunch- it was fast and cheap...
                The server was a great girl. She had us laughing and she gave us some great trail advice. Best Pulled Pork sandwich I have ever had.

                Lisa G's was cool- we did a lot of :drink: and everyone there was extremely friendly and fun. We actually came home with money too.


                Now if your in the Old Forge/EagleBay/Inlet area---
                Go to the Eagle's Nest...
                It looks like an old Motel ( it is! They're fixing up as they go)
                The bar and restraunt are awesome...
                Bruce is the bartender... He's a lot of fun and he's very knowledgable about the area.
                We had three awesome meals last weekend. We had meals, apps and drinks and spent less than $15 a person.

                OK, that's my 2 pennies..

                    Mountain View?

                    There used to be a cafe on the south side of the intersection of 9 and 9N in Elizabethtown. I used to like to eat there when we had our cabin in Moriah. I think it was called the Mountain View Cafe. (I know; there is one by the same name in Willsboro.) Is it still there? Or is it a real estate office like Wally's. too. Unlike the Noonmark, it had lots of room and better prices, too. The food was typical diner stuff, but it was pretty good.

                    Also, in Port Henry, on the Broad Street was a really good pizza place, just before you head down the hill (heading east) toward the lake.

                    Didn't get to that part of the Adirondacks in August. Maybe next time.
