Lake Placid: Great Adirondack Steak and Seafood Company (July 2019)



My spouse and I visited the Great Adirondack Brewing Company (previously called the Great Adirondack Steak and Seafood Company) for drinks on a Thursday afternoon in early July 2019. The bar/restaurant is open daily for lunch, dinner, and drinks (off-season hours may be abbreviated). 

Since 1987, the Great Adirondack Brewing Company has occupied a prime position on Main Street in the village. Originally the brewery was located in Plattsburgh, but now its operations occur on-site. Patrons can sit indoors at the L-shaped marble-topped bar or at stand-alone tables (in front of the room’s large windows), or outdoors on the courtyard patio at a second bar, tables, or picnic-style tables. Some of the outdoor tables are topped with umbrellas, while others are covered by a canvas awning roof which also has roll-down plastic sides. The flower planters bordering the sidewalk and surrounding the patio were stunningly gorgeous when we visited! 

The bar/restaurant offers American cuisine, including steaks and seafood. A full liquor license (with beer, wine, and cocktails) is offered. Regrettably, we visited in mid-afternoon, after lunch service stopped and before dinner service started, so we were unable to order any food (although we were hoping to order an appetizer to share). In addition, no table service was available during that time, so we served ourselves at the outdoor bar. 

We enjoyed our time outdoors on the patio at the Great Adirondack Brewing Company, and we would like to return sometime to try the food.
