Seneca Lake Brewing Company & The Beerocracy

Jim Nolan

We stopped for dinner after checking out their website, it looked like they had a great menu. The place had a cool entryway. As we walked in we were greeted by a very nice bar tender, when she saw our children, told us that the kitchen was closed due to them not having a chef. I get that, but there should have been some notice on the website as the food options are pretty far apart right around there, even a sign outside. As of me writing this, there is now a notice on the website, but I only saw that on my computer, not my phone. She did suggest a place up the road but we just ended up going into town. I love beer and was excited to try what they had to offer. I was let down on their hefeweizen, it was warm and flat. My wife ordered something not beer - maybe some bubbly wine, again, flat, no bobbles and warm. I was curious about the "glamping" they offer for $175 per night so I walked around the property. It's a big tent on a platform with a large bed in it. If I booked that, there was no food options due to a closed kitchen, and the beer was bad, I'd be mad. I'm an avid camper and I would not spend $175 a night for that. There is only one tent, so you can't even camp with friends. It's really a shame that a place like that has so much potential to be super cool can't live up to what they could be.

All cask ales for an authentic British pub experience. Fantastic beers, the barley wine was amazing. Power was out from a storm while we were there, but still had a great time. Want to go back and try their food some time, the veggie curry pie sounded great.

Quiet, cozy place with a cat! Good options for beer and some wines. Vegetarian options include bean burgers and vegetable pot pies. The peas are really good as well. My chicken curry pie was good, but a bit dry.

The beer was fine, it's all English style so you have to enjoy that to like the beer. They also have cans from other breweries if you aren't a fan. We tried the veggie burger and Reuben. The Reuben was tasty but don't get the veggie burger.
