Great food! Great down home country ambience and generous portions with modest prices. Kind and friendly wait staff too!

From Texas so I BBQ a lot. The pulled pork tacos were some of the best pulled pork I've had. I walked in at 4:50 PM was the only person here so guess I'm early. Came for the food anyway. read more

We were visiting Fort Drum and went here for Sunday brunch. Had good, "trendy" options. The food was delicious and I would recommend any of the options. Our waitress was super nice and attentive without being overbearing. There was also live music and Keno for your entertainment when you eat. Definitely a good bar/food option in the area. read more

Oh my god!! These are the absolute best wings I've ever had. And... The fried green tomatoes? Out of this world. My mom, rest her soul, used to make the best ones but now Shannon and the staff have out done her. Sorry, mom, they are the best. I highly recommend these folks. read more

I couldn't believe the food options at this sweet little place on the square. The food was amazing and the service was top notch. Beautiful bar area and fun local spot. The lobster dip was over the top yummy, Mediterranean flat bread delicious and the chicken croissant daily special didn't have a chance to sit because it was so good read more

Sunday Brunch was awesome, good portion size, perfect home fries! Interesting set up.

Good food and great service. We were driving through town and saw this place on Yelp and decided to stop. We're glad we did. The BLT deviled eggs and the Duck bacon wontons (though not actually in wonton wrappers) were delicious. The French toast chicken sandwich was amazing! read more

I would have to say the type of atmosphere this restaurant gives off is me to a T. I am a smart ass, but with a good sense of humor behind it and I would have to say the food was great service was phenomenal and it's just a different type of every day ordinary restaurants out there that gives you a twist of something different. Great job good environment lots of laughs.. read more

We stopped by here on our way back to Cayuga Lake after visiting Boldt Castle and I am SO glad that we did! Phoebe was our server and she was great. She was very attentive and gave excellent recommendations. We got the blue cheese chips, cowboy burger and wings. Everything was delicious! 10/10 recommend coming here. read more

Alright first time dining here with a group of 6 ladies. Overall good service and delicious food. Just a few tweaks would have made the experience better! They had a crazy rush right when we got there so service was a little slow with drinks refills, and getting our food. Our server also forgot to swap fries for the kettle chips as well as either her or the cook forgot not to put jalapeños in the quesadilla. Otherwise pretty good service! Now the food: I ordered two of their specials (one to bring home to my husband): Jalapeño Honey Chicken sandwich-very good! Only thing that would have made it amazing if they had grilled the bun. Shaved Prime Rib Sandwich- very good as well but again would have been amazing with a toasted bun! French Fries and Kettle Chips very good! The fries are thin and crispy and the kettle chips have a nice seasoning on them. Others at the table had the Pulled Pork Sandwich, a cowboy quesadilla, chili, fried pickles (sampled one of those and it was yummy) and a plain Jane burger. Everyone enjoyed their food! read more

Not great Wings were too charred and were 20 dollars for less than a dozen Extra charge for sauce Bang bang shrimp and fish tacos are basically the same sauce Burger and fries were extremely greasy No draft beers We were overcharged drinks as well so please look and check ur receipts Crowd is a small town crowd... Bathroom is clean! read more

We loved this place! We were in town for a wedding and looking for a solid place to grab some lunch. Bad Apple saloon did not disappoint! The decor is really fun and true to its name everything is red and green themed. We went mid afternoon on a Friday and were surprised by how full it was! The star of our meal was the appetizer- we split the duck bacon wontons and honestly I thought we'd died and gone to food heaven. We also had the onion rings which were good but no comparison to the wontons. For our meals I went with the tuna salad which I really enjoyed. It was a solid tuna to Mayo mix which I always appreciate. Hubby had the blue street burger which was so large he couldn't finish it. It also came served with a generous portion of fries which were crispy, crunchy, and very tasty! When he couldn't finish this is where I did my wifely duty to step in and assist! They have live music in the evening which we weren't there to listen to but I find this a big plus if you're looking for good food and a fun night out! read more

Small but personality-rich independent bar and grub place. We went there on a Tuesday night, arriving at around 8pm -- the place was nearly deserted (and we shut it down), but the staff was friendly, the burgers-and-fries food was tasty, and the drinks were good. Would definitely return. read more

We stopped in for a late lunch while we were out taking in the beautiful fall scenery. Staff was very friendly, It's a fun atmosphere, and the food was amazing. I had the broiled fish tacos. There was more than enough and they were very tasty. My husband had a blue burger he said was great! We will definitely stop again. read more

This place. No draft beers. The bartender rattled off all the usual suspects (macro usual suspects) - not an IPA to be had. Thank goodness for Guinness. Intrigued by the no bullshit vibe- I get a chicken cheese steak. Banging. The whole Menu looked good. Really good sandwich. They could use an IPA...or 3. The bartender was really personable and her sister is the rockstar in the kitchen. This place is part of a small restaurant empire. Take my 5 stars. You earned it. read more

Cool atmosphere. Service was not great. Drinks were below average. It's a very small, but again cool atmosphere.

Pleasantly surprised by this place. Great food and pleasant staff. Food was tasty and different. Highly recommend

Preface: If you don't buy the duck bacon wontons, you've made a mistake. I was celebrating my new job and decided to try out a new restaurant, and the Bad Apple was top of the chart. I noticed how it didn't have a single review less than 4 stars. I was thinking "well surely it can't be that good- I mean surely they've had ONE Karen, ONE customer who simply could not be pleased?!?" Lord, how much of a fool I was. The Bad Apple Saloon is hands down one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in the North Country thus far. The servers were inviting and friendly, and the food was so amazing I had to give my compliments to the chef. I got the garlic parm wings, and they were the most crispy, most juicy wing I've ever eaten. Superb. I was NOT expecting the chef to come out and great me personally, and yet I got to see the artist himself. This is a must stop. Period. You MUST try it once. Those wontons will hook you harder than any drug ever could. Oh, and the decor is just hilarious. Full stop. Big metal rooster. read more

This place honestly has the best food in Watertown,. It is really really good. they take traditional cuisines and do a modern twist that is so flavorful and so savory. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The energy is very bubbly and light. The atmosphere is very relaxing. I highly recommend bad apple saloon read more

The food is good. Online service. I especially like their appetizers. We've never dined in but it always seem like a good vibe when we pick our food up read more

Unique, fun eatery with nice esthetics off the beaten path. Food and service both good.

Maybe 3.5 Stars Ordered duck bacon wontons...delicious! Crispy flavorful Dipping sauce had a kick Stuffed mushrooms very filling...lots of garlicky butter for dipping the accompanying roll. I would suggest crusty Italian bread instead French onion soup Onions very crunchy, broth was just onion...no beefy stock BBQ grilled wings...not what we expected. The bbq sauce wasn't good Overall, nice atmosphere, great staff, food was 50/50 read more

What a delightful place to stop in Watertown! We sat outside on the shaded patio and enjoyed a delicious lunch. A surprisingly upscale menu at very reasonable prices. Sara was so helpful helping our young son modify a menu item to his palate. Definitely stop here. read more

Great atmosphere and staff. The Jalapeño Popper Nachos are on point. Definitely will be stopping back in next trip to the area.

Excellent food. The wings were some of the best I have ever eaten. Some kind of blueberry BBQ goodness. Bloody Mary was great and the chick waiting on us(susan) was hella good. She was rocking the customers and the bar. Started with the duck fat dumplings and fried banana peppers pretty freakin good. I'd go there again for sure read more

2nd time! Hope it's as good as the first! Stuffed mushrooms, Fish fry was very nice; Blueberry ? wings were unusual. There was a raspberry fried cheesecake that I hope to have again today! No draft, but ample bottled beer. Nice bar! read more

I had bbq chicken wings dipped in buffalo sauce, and hot honey wings and they were delicious. i also had their eggrolls as an appetizer and they were good. for dessert I had their fried raspberry cheese cake and I didn't like that one too much, which is why I'm giving it a 4 star. the staff are great and it's comfy there. would recommend for anyone new to fort drum to try this place out. read more

Over priced and underwelming food . Suppose it's good if you drink a lot . But just not great all around and parking wasn't great either . Staff was nice though. read more

This restaurant is so neat. The decor on the inside is great and all their different signage. We went on taco Tuesday. I didn't get the tacos but they looked fantastic. I ordered the haddock broiled and had the coleslaw and Mac and cheese as my side. The haddock was cooked great and had a lemon flavor to it. The coleslaw was okay, but I'm not a huge coleslaw person. The max and cheese was soooo good. It was creamy and had some nice seasonings to it. Definitely recommend this place! read more

Stopped in here on the way to Syracuse based on the reviews and glad we did! Service was great and food delicious. The Buffalo mac and cheese was yum! Great French onion soup too. Don't let the outside fool you. It's definitely worth a try! read more

We had the Wonton appetizer which was delicious. The special was the fish fry, Mac cheese, coleslaw. Everything was wonderful except coleslaw. My husband and I talked about how we both didn't care for it. Kayla was a great waitress with a pretty smile. She was very attentive and we enjoyed our meal. Reviews are correct about Parsley, you better like Parsley, it was on everything. read more
