Hungry Trout Restaurant

The HUNGRY TROUT RESTAURANT overlooks the Flume Falls section of the West Branch of the Ausable River, one of this country’s most legendary trout streams. It joins with the adjacent Hungry Trout Resort, a well appointed AAA facility, in presenting our guests with comfortable accommodations and first class dining in a peaceful Adirondack setting unequaled anywhere.

Its owners, Jerry and Linda Bottcher, have been proprietors since 1982, the year “The Trout” became a four-season resort. In 1989 the basement of the restaurant was transformed into R.F.McDougall’s Pub, an old fashioned eatery recently named by OUTDOOR LIFE MAGAZINE as one of “Americas Top 10 Fishing Bars”. This wonderful pub offers our guests the perfect spot to end an active day in the Adirondacks. You’re invited to visit our downstairs pub for an after dinner libation! We welcome you to our restaurant and are most appreciative that you have selected to spend an evening with us…ENJOY!!
