Fantastic Food, Fun Atmosphere, and Amazing People!
Indian Lake Bistro is the kind of place you’ll want to keep coming back to! I had the avocado toast, and it was absolutely delicious – topped with pickled onions, goat cheese, and fresh tomatoes, every bite was a perfect balance of flavors. You can tell they put care into every dish.
The vibe here is unbeatable – fun music, a lively atmosphere, and a crowd that just seems to be having a great time. On top of that, the people are incredible! Friendly, welcoming, and always making sure you’re enjoying
If you’re looking for great food, great energy, and great people, Indian Lake Bistro is the spot. Highly recommend!

Lakeside dining at its finest! 🌊✨
From crispy, made-in-house buffalo wings to savory empanadas, the menu is packed with fresh flavors you’ll love. I tried the surf & turf skirt steak with garlic butter shrimp and a refreshing salmon, berry, and goat cheese salad.
Paired meal with a fresh OJ, creamy matcha latte with oat milk, and a vibrant hibiscus Paloma with a Tajín rim.
I recommend you visit and savor the lakeside vibes at Indian Lake Bistro—where nothing’s frozen, and everything’s delicious!

Nice vibe. The food is good and the service is friendly. My only gripe is I went there twice for espresso to go. The first time they told me they didn’t know how to use the machine and their boss was the only one who could do it, and the 2nd time I was the only one there and it took 20 minutes for them to get me an espresso. And it came out terribly burnt. The sign also said $3.99 for a double espresso and they charged me $5.39. I didn’t say anything cause it looked like she made a lot more than 2 shots but when I went to drink it it was really bad. I had to throw it away.
Not sure if this place is trying to appeal to coffee drinkers, but I feel like some training and familiarization might do them some good. Besides downtown denville, this place is the only true coffee shop on this side of town. But if they keep serving bad coffee they’re going to miss out on appealing to everyone on this side of Route 53 who doesn’t feel like fighting they’re way into town for a cup of coffee.
Besides that the ambiance is cool and I really enjoy their food! Will definitely be back for food!

The food is good. The view of Indian Lake is spectacular, all four seasons. It is just so peaceful there.
Great location and the breakfast is spot on. The huevos rancheros and the french toast were delicious. Great lake views as well.

The location is easy to find and parking is right outside the front door! When we arrived for breakfast we found a table and met the owner who was such a nice guy! We ordered the El Presidente that was cooked to perfection and had great flavors. Check out the photos and we also ordered another special breakfast dish pictured as well. I plan to go back for the French toast! Give this place a whirl I think you will be glad you did!

We went here for brunch and the food was delicious! Our kids got pancakes and fruit, and everything was very fresh. My husband and I got the breakfast burrito and it was very tasty and our friend got their egg, bacon and potato wrap with fries, which was also really good. The service was great and it was very clean. I highly recommend stopping by!
