Can you just go in and order ice cream?

Yes, there's an ice cream case right by the front door.

Good morning. Just wondering if you are hiring? My 17 year old is currently looking. we live in Porter Corner's

we are looking for dishwashers.

Even though it is later in October, on nice days can we sit outdoors?

I believe the closed for the season last weekend.😥

Are you open for 2019 yet? What days will you be open and what hours?

They are Open for the 2019 season now.

Once it opens for the season, what days will Up River Cafe be open for lunch?

Every day. 7 days a week

When are you reopening?

I don't know. Sometime soon I hope.

Are you open on Friday's for lunch and if so can we order Risotto with shrimp and scallops? I was there Saturday night 9-16 and had it. I have never had a better tasting meal in all my life. The flavors were amazing.

They are open on Friday for lunch. Last year until mid November

Fantastic dinner as part of our honeymoon! Delicious mushroom ravoli for me, meatloaf for him. We brought home cheesecake and it was delightfully creamy.

Our server was delightful. The food was decent but nothing special. The red snapper was a bit overcooked and strong. The chicken in the Cobb salad was old. I had the pastrami sandwich which was very good. The view of the river makes this place a winner.

Great service and a beautiful location. I just wish they would get my food right. 3 out of 4 isn't bad (everyone else in my group's food was perfect), and I'd brush it off if it was just once; but unfortunately this has happened twice. This place is still head and shoulders above anything else in the vicinity.

This is my favorite restaurant in the north country with no close second. Chef/owner Andy is extremely welcoming and customer service oriented. We were extremely lucky to be served like royalty yesterday by Andy himself, and set up on the outside deck with our own propane heater and view of the river and beginning of falls surrounded by amazing fall foliage. The food and service are always great. Make UpRiver Cafe your destination for an unforgettable experience. The drive up there is spectacularly scenic and UpRiver Cafe makes for a great centerpiece for a lovely country drive day outting.

Contrary to a review left by a woman named Katey, we were a party of 11 and are city people born and raised. The Up River was beyond our expectations. Between all of us we pretty much sampled everything on their menu including their desserts. The Chef and co-owner, Andy, pleasantly came out to see how all 3 of our tables were doing and our server Megan was darling! Food was fresh and delicious!!!! Service was 👌. As for Betsy the Hostess, she suggested a walk to view the waterfall as we were early for our reservation and that by far was the highlight of our trip. To appreciate mother nature, make sure you're seated on the back deck.If we were able to give 10 stars we would!!! Looking forward to our return in late August

The mahi-mahi taco felt a little bland, needed a little more seasoning. But everything else was great. Definitely ask to be seated outside. The views are stunning.

Started going to this location when it was "Papa's" before the fire. Those were the good old days. Yes the view is to die for so we have returned a few times. The food is quite ordinary. The prices are a bit higher than they should be. Asked if i could have my side salad be a Caesar. Waitress says yes but they may have to charge a couple dollars extra. I am in the mood so say what the heck. I am brought a dinky pile of lettuce and some croutons with a little Caesar dressing. They then had the audacity to charge us $3 extra. What for? Desserts are overpriced. Not going back again.

Great food in a picturesque location with a terrace that features Hudson River views. Nearby is the location where the sprawling river has its most narrow point in it's running course.

This has been a favorite of mine for year . The food is fresh, with interesting choices. The service is attentive and friendly. Loved the smoked trout.

This is probably the best restaurant in this area of New York. Each entree is a treat but don't sleep on the Fried Green Tomatoes. The view of the river is also a breathtaking way to eat your meal.

On our way home from Lake George we decided to stop by Lake Luzerne and see Rockwell Falls. UpRiver Cafe has a great location overlooking the river. When we stopped by all the table were full, so we ordered to go and sat outside to wait. The place looked clean, the staff was very friendly, and they even have an ice cream shop up front. We went over by the falls to eat. My pulled pork sandwich was delicious! I will definitely be back next time we come up to the area.

This place used to be fantastic back when it was Pop's and has gone downhill rapidly. The food is glorified cafeteria food, the service is slow and unpleasant and above all the female owner is not a pleasant person and should not be interacting with clientele. Do not even bother if you have any standards for food or service. The people giving this place high stars must be local and not have city standards. Stay away if you're cosmopolitan.

This is a treasure. An amazing dining experience with a stunning view. The food was amazing and reasonable. The staff is incredible, kind, helpful and attentive. The food once again is amazing. I would recommend it for everyone or anyone. Do yourself the favor take the trip out of the way and enjoy. Due to covid they are seating outside but reservations are required. The staff all wore masks, and seating was spaced to respect social distancing. Everytime I have been here it was and has been a joy.
