Spent a few days in the area in between peaks - too late for foliage and too early for ski season. One of the few restaurants open with consistent hours during the week. Local, low key spot with good food, service, and prices - especially for the amount of food - in the area. Didn’t need a reservation. Staff was friendly. Food came out hot, fresh, and tasted great. Split the fried chicken dinner ($21) that came with two sides and cornbread, and a large dinner salad. All was good. An approachable place that you can bring the family. As good or better food and service than other comparable places in the area, and you’re saving $10-$15/plate. A win win. Don’t know if we’ll be back to the general area, but would recommend for anyone in our situation or for those visiting during peak times.

Great bar restaurant, I went to stop by just to grab a drink, and the food looked so good we ended up grabbing a number of appetizers, clams, ribs, pot stickers and everything was delishious! Big, family restaurant atmosphere ended up spending hours there just getting to hang out with the staff and got to know some friendly locals. Would come back here any time!

It’s giving old but gold vibes! People dining here are so unique. And when your nose is cold, the place will definitely warm you… Chicken wasn’t absolute best but ice cream was tasty!

Enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Decorated for Halloween. Wait staff was attentive. Fried chicken was crispy and much of the food tasted homemade.

Food was really good! Friendly staff. Steak was amazing! Glad we stopped in! The area in the back is fun, plenty to do to keep kids busy. Sand pit, horseshoes, and the creek is nice too!

This restaurant is 45 minutes away but we would make a special trip to go there. It's rustic and cozy and everyone is welcoming. The wait staff is excellent. The Autumn Caramel Apple Cider Martini is a dream.

The ultimate family friendly restaurant! We love this place. The food is awesome, there’s often live music and our kids LOVE the claw machines. We always bring $1s so they can have some fun and then us grown ups can hang and talk. Skyler the hostess is so sweet and helped our kids get a toy with her own dollar. The steak, ribs, and fish & chips are awesome and they have a great kids menu.

My boyfriend and I came to visit Windham and found this place on a whim and absolutely LOVED it. The food was delicious (we recommend the prime cut cowboy steak with Mac n cheese) and the service was amazing. Alanna was a wonderful server and Skylar is a fabulous hostess. We will definitely come back in the future ◡̈

Their honey dipped fried chicken is absolutely incredible. Great food followed by an excellent selection of desserts. While there is not a whole lot in this area, this is one of the best restaurants around with a lot of great options. Hope to be back some day!

A large of family group(13) made reservations and were seated inside in comfortable air conditioned setting. The drinks were served quickly and the food followed shortly after. The quality and food portions were excellent. The reason I rated only 4-stars was that the service left a little to be desired. A waitress by the name of Marie C was a little abrupt at times and appeared to be distracted. We’re not sure if she was overworked or just annoyed at the size of the group. What ever the reason for abrupt behavior, it does not excuse this kind of treatment. Marie seems to be annoyed about certain requests made of her about items that were requested. With a “4” rating we didn’t want to detract from the quality food and its portions. We do recommend dining at the Chicken Run - a fun place to dine.

Great place. Food was excellent. Visited on an off day (Thursday) ama it was worth the 3hr trip, and quite an enjoyable ride. Service was fine, nothing remarkable. But that fried chicken and corn bread, outstanding!

Love it!!!! We were a large group and we opted for outdoor seating! Amazing food and fun servers! Very laid back and chill surroundings. You can spend hours and hours there or behind the restaurant, where there’s a small park and a brook/ stream? Recommend!

First time here. We needed a table for 9 with no reservations. Lucky someone just cancelled and we were seated right away. Kids ordered from their own menu. My wife enjoyed her cheeseburger and I shared the huge cowboy ribeye for two, cooked medium rare. It was a friends birthday and they brought out her dessert with a huge sparkler. Kids all had ice cream. There was live music in the next room and everyone looked like they were having a great night out.

BEST RIBS IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. Fall of the bone good!!! Also the Spicy Cheese Curd appetizer and the beer cheese soup was delectable!! The only things I didn’t super care for were the fried chicken (kinda bland, not enough spices), and the Mac and cheese side. Also I tried some of the pot pie and it was SOOOO GOOD. I also wish they had a bigger beer selection since I’m not a fan of IPAs and light beers. But this place is the best restaurant in town!

OMG! What a great place! We are not from the area but it was a great find. The staff was very welcoming, walked us around the restaurant so we could pick out seats. Lol The food was amazing! We had wings and a ceasar salad with house made dressing to start and then shared a chicken and rib combo with mashed potatoes and mac & cheese with corn bread. Everything was delicious! And then the music and atmosphere was so much fun. Beautiful grounds!

Fun family owned and operated restaurant in the central area of ski town, Windham, NY. This restaurant is very popular with the locals as well as the apres ski folks. It's a great bar and family friendly restaurant. Steps from the entrance, you can see the custom ice cream station where you can customize your own dessert. Or you can order any of the yummy pre-made mousse or cakes from the fridge. Once they sell out, that's it. They are famous for their BBQ ribs and fried chicken. My family and I tried both the original and honey flavored fried chicken and it didn't disappoint. Crunchy skin and good flavor. Each entree is paired with two sides, Mac and cheese was the favorite as well as the vegetable of the day (waxed beans and carrots). We also tried the ribeye steak, tender and juicy. They even offer brand name steak sauces should you want it. I don't think it needed it. My ribeye was well seasoned with black pepper and peppercorns. Complimentary popcorn served while you wait for your food and wikisticks for the kids to keep them occupied. Great value for the portions.

This is an amazing spot for the whole family. Also great for a nice, casual night out. Whether you're alone, on a date, with friends or your spouse. You can dine in, take out. They have a lovely setup in their outside area. Our first time was just this Friday & we went again this evening. We got to catch the live band both nights. So far I've tried their, ribs & slaw and their fried chicken both super delicious. Tonight I had the pleasure of Brownie Sundae, hits the spot. They have fin activities & setups outside; THE FIRE PIT, with sits circling it. Horse shoes, bean toss, a volleyball net. A teepee with a table/bench inside. In the sumer they have a Seafood Shack, the food cooking from there smells amazing. They have a good number of picnic tables with a creek behind the restaurant. The mountain views are spectacular. I can't wait to come back, especially when I extend summer to enjoy all the activities with my family & friends. Great food, amazing atmosphere, fun & outstanding service & staff!
