Dancing Bear

Step into the rich history of Dancing Bears Restaurant in Lake Placid – affectionately known by the locals as DBL – and enjoy a modern atmosphere that has been charming visitors to upstate New York since opening over 40 years ago just before Lake Placid hosted its second Winter Olympic Games in 1980.
