Whiteface Restaurants and Bars

Without a village at Whiteface Mountain, Main Street in Lake Placid is the hub of the apres-ski activity.

Whiteface-Lake Placid Apres-Ski

Apres-ski at Whiteface is limited to the Cloudspin Lounge and J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines Café & Wine Bar, but both bars close shortly after the lifts close, so don’t expect too much in the way of an apres-ski party. Head to Lake Placid village for a wide assortment of apres ski bars.

Downtown Lake Placid is dotted with bars and restaurants, many of which offer apres-ski specials.  The best option for nightlife in the village is Zig Zags on Main Street. Don’t worry, you won’t have a hard time finding it – it’s the one with the bobsled full of rowdy tourists parked out front.

Whiteface-Lake Placid Restaurants

The region’s best restaurants and bars are found in the village of the Lake Placid along Main Street.  From world class cuisine at renowned hotels to a burger and fries, Lake Placid has something for everyone.

The Great Adirondack Steak & Seafood restaurant located on Main Street has an on-site microbrewery. It offers a wide selection of handcrafted beers which are also available for takeout in 2-Liter Growlers. The traditional American fare is good but service can be slow. Be sure buy one of their pint glasses. We like the glass with the Whiteface trail map and a quote from Humphrey Bogart, “The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind.” Well said.

The Moose Lodge Boathouse Restaurant at the Whiteface Club Resort is also recommended for great views and equally good food.

If you’re looking for a AAA Four-Diamond meal, head to The View restaurant at the Mirror Lake Inn.
