Amazing food and cocktails. Highly recommend the smoked brisket.
Atmosphere is very Adirondack but modern. Staff was just as great as the scenery from the outdoor deck, which was perfect.
Definitely going again for the French Quarter Cocktail.

Amazingly beautiful bar, restaurant and retail shop. The cocktails are very well prepared and the service was excellent. Must try the old fashioned. Added bonus the parking include EV chargers and they had AC/DC special edition juicy IPA!

getic. It's a fun place to go to again and again. Highly recommend. Be sure to try any of their cocktails... especially the Old Fashioned... so good! They make some delicious pizzas and yummy BBQ sandwiches. Be sure to try their mac and cheese dishes... decadent! War Cannon Spirits is on its way to becoming a must visit destination.

Stumbled across War Cannon on a drive and was so happy we did. Everything was great! We sat outside with our dogs and had a beautiful view and a great lunch. The service was exceptional. I had the Blueberry Smash and it was perfect. Great flav...
or and not too sweet. For lunch I had a flatbread that was the perfect mix of cheese and crunchy crust. Will definitely visit again when we are in the area!

This place could be awesome! However, the service is VERY slow and the food is not good at all! They need to hire twice as much staff.
First, we were told that there was no brisket and suggested that we order the Adirondack beef, which we tho...
ught sounded very good. After ordering, we were told that there was no kilted sausage (which we ordered)and then our waiter returned and said there was no Adirondack beef which we were suggested to order.
The pulled pork nachos were nasty, no pulled pork to speak of and looked as though they were sitting around in the kitchen for quite some time. The margarita flat bread was literally some bread with cheese melted and a couple cherry tomatoes, very tasteless.
The chicken wings are okay, not crispy but had a nice smoky taste, but needed more sauce.
Overall, it’s an amazing atmosphere, but the food and service is horrible! We won’t be back unless major changes happen!
