Surrounding each one of New York’s Finger Lakes, you can find an assortment of charming attractions and destinations that will draw you out to this particular region. All around Keuka Lake, you can find everything from amazing small towns like Penn Yan and Hammondsport to breathtaking little structures like Garrett Memorial Chapel that you’ve probably never heard of. Giving you one more reason to explore the shores of this wishbone-shaped body of water, it’s time to head out to the Keuka Lake to discover your new favorite lakefront restaurant.
Out along the western branch of Keuka Lake, The Lakeside Restaurant & Tavern is one of our favorite little-known waterfront restaurants in New York.
While The Lakeside Restaurant may be unknown to many, the small town restaurant’s history actually dates all the way back to 1936 when it was originally converted to an eatery and amusement park. Whoa!
That’s right! Possibly the only restaurant in all of New York that you’ll discover with a deck quite like this, The Lakeside Restaurant offers lakefront dining during our warmest months.
As far as the food goes, you can expect to feast on things like Jumbo Prawns, Cheese Boards, lobster sandwiches, Salmon BLT’s, Blue Crab Claws, and other delicious eats.
While those who are looking for more classic American dishes can choose from things like their Pig Wings, Double Burgers, Knuckle Sandwiches, and more.
As if we even need to say it, rhetorically speaking, you can expect to find a drink menu that will blow you away as well - with plenty of beverage choices that will keep you refreshed while spending the day out along Keuka Lake.
As if this underrated restaurant couldn't get more charming, while you're dining outside on the tri-level deck, you'll also have the pleasure of enjoying live music during the summertime.
If you're looking to enjoy an afternoon of relaxation along the waterfront in the Finger Lakes, then start planning your trip to The Lakeside Restaurant & Tavern along Keuka Lake before the warm weather passes you by!
