§ Field Notes
About Waypoint Cafe.
Waypoint Cafe is a Main-Street cafe in **Long Lake** at **1265 Main St**, serving as both morning-coffee stop and lunchtime go-to in a hamlet where year-round dining options are limited.
Coffee runs on **La Colombe beans**. The food menu is wider than typical café-fare: **homemade quiche, avocado toast, artisan sandwiches, salads, poke bowls, homemade soups, and charcuterie and hummus boards**.
Hours: **Tuesday – Sunday, 8 a.m. – 3 p.m.**, closed Mondays. **Happy Hour Monday – Thursday, 4 – 6 p.m.** — a useful detail for travelers passing through outside the lunch window. Phone: **(518) 624-2012**.
Best for: travelers on NY-30 between Tupper Lake and Long Lake village, paddlers and hikers starting from Long Lake, and locals running a weekday lunch errand.
