Dark Island Spirits 42 Church Street, Alexandria Bay Lounges • $$

“While visiting beautiful Alexandria Bay, we stumbled upon Dark Island Spirits. Let me tell you, we were so glad that we did. The moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by friendly faces and knowledgeable staff who guided us on our tasting journey. We tried a few flights, and to be honest, we enjoyed every single tasting sample. We ended up leaving with a few bottles of the Eleanor Glen 1000 Islays - Peated American Single Malt Whiskey as well as a few bottles of the Mountain Strong - Corn whiskey aged in one of our used bourbon barrels. If you're in the area, I highly suggest stopping by and trying some amazing and unique spirits. UPDATE: 8/28/24 Stopped back in and got to meet Kelly and William. Both had an infectious energy and made our visit totally amazing. Can not recommend Dark Island enough. Try a flight or grab a drink and chill on the patio. Can't wait for our next visit.”

“🍦 5 Stars – Amazing Ice Cream & Even Better Service! Gal’s Place Ice Cream is the perfect spot for a sweet treat, but what truly sets it apart is the incredible service from Emmy Claire and Josie. Every time we visit, they go above and beyond—friendly, fast, and always with a smile. They make the experience so enjoyable and memorable. Honestly, they’re the kind of employees any business would be lucky to have… and they definitely deserve a raise for all they do! Thank you, Emmy Claire and Josie—you make Gal’s Place the best around!”

Thousand Islands Winery 43298 Seaway Ave, Alexandria Bay Wineries • $$

“Amazing people and amazing wine. We did our tasting with Lisa and she is the nicest and so easy to talk to. My husband and I stopped in during our trip back to visit family before moving across country and I’d had their wine before so I knew it was good but visiting the winery made it even better knowing what a great, welcoming, and warm staff they have. Telling everyone I know about them.”

“We’re visiting in the offseason and after striking out at some of the restaurants in town, we came here more by default than anything, as we’re staying at the hotel. So I went in with pretty low expectations, which thankfully were well surpassed. Angie was the only server working the whole restaurant and she did so without breaking a sweat - a true pro. And our food was very good - my blackened mahi mahi was cooked perfectly. The prices were reasonable and the location couldn’t be beat as we were staying two floors above. A solid 5 star experience.”

DANCING DOG BAR 45 Church Street, Alexandria Bay Bar • $$

“This little pub has been owned by the same family for 74 years . The owner is a musician and runs the bar like a music venue first . A music venue that happens to have 2 exceptional bars . Inside pub and an outside Tiki bar . Both bars have a stage and present outstanding live bands . NOTE * WE DID NOT OPEN THIS SUMMER (2020) It just wasn’t right . Wasn’t safe due to COVID-19 So we wait. I am painting and redecorating ,improving sound and lights and improving all the little thing that add up to an exciting reopening when the pandemic ends . I miss playing in the band with my friends in the Dog Bros.Band ! I miss our patrons . This little pub is like the family farm , so it will reopen when the laws allow .”

“Nice place for breakfast in Alexandria Bay. Wonderful location, gorgeous views of the water. The atmosphere was nice, large place, plenty of seating. Our Australian server was magnificent! The food fell a little short, with my eggs Benedict being practically raw, my husband liked his carnivore omelet though!”
