Ever since Mountain Shadows went out of business in Lake George, I've been hoping for a great local restaurant to take its place. Â I'm so happy I found this place. Â I'm optimistic that Lake George Cafe will "fill the shoes" left by Mountain Shadows. Â
Don't let the name fool you - this is more than a pizza joint. Â They have breakfast, lunch and dinner. Â I stopped by on my way home from hunting on a Sunday morning. Â I had a breakfast burrito that was as good as any I've had. Â And, it was cooked by a pirate! Â Yes a pirate. Â The chef is an Orlando Bloom impersonator who was in "Pirates of the Caribbean" character when we stopped by to eat. Â The waitress was happy, friendly and made us feel right at home. Â The coffee was fresh, hot, delicious and copiously forthcoming. Â I'd give Lake George Cafe a 5 star, but I need to come back at least another time to test for consistency. Â But I can highly recommend that you stop by while travelling highway 24 Â through the middle of Colorado.
