There are so many great restaurants in New York that sometimes, in order to pick where to go, you have to find one with that special something. Maybe it’s a particular dish you love, or something unique about the setting. Some eateries that we love to enjoy are restaurants with lake views. It’s so peaceful to relax and enjoy your meal while watching the waves crash against the shore, or boats docking. Check out these five restaurants with great Finger Lakes views in New York.
1. The Sherwood Inn: 26 W Genesee St, Skaneateles, NY 13152 (Lake Skaneateles)

It's located right in town, so you'll be able to walk to various shops as well as the beautiful Skaneateles Lake. The lobby has a fireplace, so even on the chilliest of nights, it's a cozy and warm environment.
Ports Cafe overlooks Seneca Lake and the food and environment are just as good as the views. They've been a favorite in the area since they opened in 2000.
The Waterfront is an aptly-named spot on Keuka Lake. They've got great live music, and such a fantastically fun atmosphere. Please note that they are open seasonally only in the warmer months.
The pub-style menu features plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. Salads, pasta, sandwiches: they've got quite the selection! Get more information from their website.
