Dive Bars in Saranac Lake

“Killer and not in a serial kinda way. Although if I lived here I’d slay a smash burger as often as I could get away with it. Awesome beer selection. Simple counter service, but it’s so perfect. We sat out in the deck and enjoyed the burgers and fries - like whoa. The Chet Ripley burger was a 6-napkin burger - the stuff saucy-burger dreams are made of. The fries = perfection.“

“My husband and I stopped in here while on our honeymoon after going to another local bar that was terrible in all ways- the drinks, the service. Anyways we came to the Rusty Nail where we were warmly greeted and had an absolutely amazing time. The locals were so nice and inviting, the open mic night was so fun and it was an fantastic way to spend our evening. I would recommend anyone to stop in and enjoy a drink at this cozy place.“
