Two unique culinary experiences
Finding the very best places to eat in Lake Placid, NY can be hard, especially with many restaurant and dining options to choose from. Thankfully, Mirror Lake Inn is proud to house two beautiful and unique restaurants, right by Mirror Lake. Each prides themselves on using the freshest local ingredients, caters to a wide selection of tastes and are recognized with multiple awards.
Our restaurants offer innovative cocktails, local craft beers and spirits along with an extensive and award-winning selection of wines!
Menus change throughout the season, and we cater for all meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner, along with light bites throughout the day. All are by the lake-shore overlooking the Adirondack Mountains.
In the lobby, we’re pleased to offer a complimentary coffee service and a plate of chocolate chip cookies. The recipe for our signature cookies can also be found on our postcards in the lobby.
