Always reliable and delicious! Today I grabbed a Buddha salad loaded with veggies and ramen with a…read morespicy peanut dressing. Fabulous! Best of all, I could race in and find the perfect lunch; I actually had a tough time choosing as the tempeh also looked delish. The only tough part is walking past the amazing desserts. You must be strong to resist!

Absolutely adorable shop with staple and unique food and personal care items. This was a great…read moreplace to pick up some cute holiday gifts (fancy dish towels, things for making craft cocktails at home, soaps, etc). They also make baked goods in the store. I loved that each item had the simple ingredients listed with it on the name-- this made it easy for needing to ask if you have food allergies, but also terrific to see that the treats are made with basic ingredients like you'd use at home! I tried a snickerdoodle whoopie pie with cream cheese icing inside. The cookies were perfect and the frosting was a bit on the super sweet side but that's how I like my frosting so it was delicious! My mom got a slice of pie- the flavor was pretty good but since it was kept in the fridge, the crust lost a bit of the crunch/flakiness. We bought a take and bake frozen raspberry pie for the next time we have guests over. Mom also got a brownie, which she said was very good as well. The wide selection of pre made salads and sandwiches looked great as well as the large selection of take and bake meals and side dishes. This is my favorite type of a local gem to discover. It's a perfect spot to stop on the way to or from Lake Placid. I actually visited twice in the same day! It's open Friday-Monday (as of when I visited in November'23). I think I'll actually head back to that area next weekend and stop back in to pick up a few gifts and some more baked goods! Update--- We also did end up going back to the shop the following weekend for some more shopping. Customer service could use some improvement. **As I said in my main review, we bought a frozen pie to take and bake. We baked it for Thanksgiving l there was no scent while it baked which was unusual. It wasn't the prettiest looking when it came out of the oven. More unfortunately, no one liked it! My mom said it was the worst she's ever tasted. The crust was so thick and the filling and crust both had a strange aftertaste. This was very disappointing because the treats we had in the store were delicious. If the review was based only on the pie, I'd be a 1/5 stars.

We walked by this modest shop several times during our stay in Lake Placid before deciding to stop…read morein for a quick bite on our last day in the area. When we first saw the pseudo-chalet looking building, we were struck by the name "Sugar Shack," immediately thinking of the iconic places you can find in many upper New England states that process maple sap into syrup and also into other sugary yummies. But then we noticed that the name also indicated "Dessert Company" and realized maybe it wasn't just about maple syrup and sweets. So we peeked in the window, looked at the big chalk menu which listed sandwiches, and decided to have our last breakfast here before departing. The interior is as puzzling - in a sense - as our initial impression. Yes, there is a bright display case filled with some delectable and delightful-looking pastries, muffins, donuts, and cookies. But then, there is a slushy machine right inside the door (?), and shelves of souvenirs (maple syrup in a variety of bottles), boxes of pre-packaged, brand-name chocolates and other candy, and chips to accompany your lunch sandwich. A diverse and wide-ranging mix in my mind. Our sandwiches were made on a small griddle like you would find in anyone's home and wrapped in foil for us. (We chose to eat them at one of the two tiny seats - I think there may have been 4 seats - inside, by the window). The sandwiches were fine...but that's about as far as I can go. We saw a "For Sale" sign near the door indicating the business was up for grabs and from all appearances, the person running it now is doing everything in their power to make a go of it. But without creating a more unique and efficient, competitive business, the end may be in sight.
