Duffy's Tavern

Tonight my landlord knocked on my door and gave me a quart of baked beans she had left over from a party at her work. Not those cheap canned beans but baked beans, in a pan, with bacon and love and a lot of time spent on them. Now I haven't had a hot dog in maybe two years, but for some reason those baked beans made me really want a couple of fried hot dogs to go along with it. So strong was my craving, I went out in search them. Well I found them in Duffy's, but there was a price to be paid.

$5.75 for 1 hot dog. And not even an all beef, special topping monster dog, but something I could whip up at home with a frying pan and butter.  Just because some dummy paid that much once before does not mean to keep on doing it. That is just plain rude, and you are creating a resentment among locals as well as tourists. Do you know how stupid and burned I felt having to pay $12 for two pathetic hot dogs. You call yourself an 'irish pub' but you have a time consuming computer ticket system  to dispatch orders to the kitchen, instead of callin out ' two dags' over your shoulder like any irish pub should. Good luck to you with that.

Aside from that, drinks are what drinks cost in Lake George, waitresses and bartenders have always been personable and friendly. Nice view. The bars themselves are well made. I like the downstairs bar more than up, but just because I'm more of a dive bar guy. Upstairs bar is usually rockin out with some 80's cover rock band on the weekends, and is generally a 45+ crowd, so if you're that age and into feathered hair and jeans then its definitely your scene.

If your on a motorcycle. This is a bar like you left at home. Friendly bartenders, cold beer and a happy crowd early or late.wings clams burgers,

Not bad if you want traditional-mediocure bar food i.e wings, nachos etc....  Service was OK. Nothing spectacular.
