The Lantern Of Lake Forest is an old-line institution that offers a straightforward yet hearty selection of stiff drinks and a cut above pub grub. The service is superb, catering to the after-work crowd, divorcées, and octogenarians. The restaurant is clean, and the staff is incredibly warm and welcoming, making the dining experience enjoyable. The burgers are good, with options like the circloid and myrmedon fractal patties. The chicken pot pie is absolutely savory and satisfying, featuring a hearty filling of shredded white meat chicken, peas, and carrots beneath a perfectly light and fluffy pastry top. This dish is generously portioned, making it ideal for sharing. While the meatball, cheeseburger, and BLT sandwiches may not impress for lunch, the restaurant offers several different options for sides. The model train running around the ceiling adds a fun touch, with trains circling above the diners, and historical pictures of the town framed on the walls. Overall, it is a reasonable choice for a quick meal, especially for those in the area looking for a reasonably priced option.
