Diner in Indian Lake

“One thing I love when traveling is trying out local diners. Chef Darrell's Mountain Diner was above and beyond what I even thought was possible. I spent the weekend in the area recently and had the best Eggs Benedict for my birthday. I loved the atmosphere and the owner came out and mingled with customer's and was very welcoming!!!! Very neat story behind the diner itself. 10/10 incredible establishment 👏”

“Best scrambled eggs I've ever had, perfectly fluffy and buttery. Delightful host/waiter. Cute place.”

“Cute little diner, the food is good and the bacon is perfectly cooked. I love spots like this. Will be back whenever were in the area again”

“Great place to stop and eat for Breakfast and Lunch we always make a point to come bye when we are in the Adirondacks. Chef Darrell always comes by our table to say hi. Our favorite menu item is the grilled cinnamon roll yumm!”

“Fish and chips are amazingly crispy and tasty. Darrell and the servers are very welcoming and friendly and clearly love what they do. What a treat!”

“We had a delicious lunch of meatloaf with mashed potatoes ~ best we've ever tasted! Very good fish & chips too! The tartar sauce had lots of flavour.”

“Chef Darrell's is an absolute gem. Located in a vintage diner car with inside and outside seating. Food is a mix of traditional diner fare and contemporary specials. The specials were excellent, the service was great, and Chef Darrell himself seems wonderful. Highly recommend.”

“We discovered Chef Darrell's Mountain Diner yesterday when out garage saleing yesterday! WOW!! The quiche of the day way fantastic, service was great (even though they were short staffed), Chef was friendly and very personable. Just an all around great experience. I can't wait to go back.”

“What a place, I'm so happy to have them in this beautiful area. I had the reuben sandwich, it was to die for. As a snobby New Yorker who has had many life-changing sandwiches, I can say that this one was up there. My wife had the turkey club and loved it as well. Fast service, lots of seating outside, this is an all around great spot, no notes! Thanks Chef Darrell!”

“My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Darrell's yesterday. The turkey club sandwich is awesome! Darrell is a wonderful host and chef.”

“Chef Darrell is an amazing chef and owner of this North Country eatery just outside of Blue Mountain Lake on Route 30. We enjoyed a cheeseburger and a tuna melt with fries. He even came out from his kitchen to say Hi to his diners! Clean, friendly and good food 👍”

“Had heard how great this place was and had to try it, and it did not disappoint! Breakfast sandwich was absolutely delicious! Service was great!! Looking forward to coming back again!!”

“Chef Darrell's has vibes for days!!!!!!!!!!! Chicest diner car I've ever seen and the food was absolutely amazing. I had country fried steak and pecan pie. So good. Can't wait for a chance to go back. ♥️♥️♥️”

“This is an exceptional diner both in atmosphere and quality of food. They have a wonderful menu and an awesome mix between comfort and refinement with the items they have on both the regular menu and the specials. Everything was good, but the chicken and waffles were absolutely insane. The most tender piece of fried chicken I’ve had on light fluffy waffles.”

“Did not sit and eat but picked up food to go. Chef Darrell was sitting outside and met him. What a pleasant guy and as nice as could be! Good luck to him, food was great had a turkey club, generous amount of French fries, couldn't eat them all! Good salad and great carrot cake! Don't pass this place by, next time I'll come and sit to enjoy a meal!”

“When I went searching for a nice place halfway between Pleasant Valley and home, I was delighted to find a bright and cheerful diner. The fish and chips came with an excellent tartar sauce. My granddaughter was tired from a week at camp and didn't have an appetite. She had a cup of chamomile tea and nibbled a little bit of my dinner, and left with a very fine cheesecake. Five minutes out she was fast asleep in the car.”
