Creative New American plates and standout cocktails in a cozy Krog Street Market hideaway; excellent hospitality, adventurous flavors, limited menu, and premium pricing for the quality.
Ticonderoga Club exemplifies grade A standards through exceptional service warmth and attentiveness paired with bold, creative New American cooking that consistently impresses. The destination-worthy cocktail program and chef-driven approach elevate it among the region's finest neighborhood dining spots, though occasional consistency variations and space constraints prevent higher distinction. A standout for adventurous diners seeking hospitality-forward dining.
Inside Krog Street Market, this spot hums with warm, attentive hospitality and a bar that anchors the room. Guests describe staff who remember occasions and mix custom drinks, with one noting, "They crafted a mocktail just for me and checked in at the right moments." The vibe is cozy and eclectic, more clubby den than food hall kiosk. The cooking leans New American with bold, global accents: yuzu and soy dashi on sashimi, piccata-bright sweetbreads, a vegan eggplant that crackles with herbs and chili, and a beloved tartare with daikon. Drinks match the ambition, from the Ticonderoga Cup to amaro flights. The menu is tight and seasonal, so expect creativity over breadth—and prices that reflect the chef-driven approach. Families will find friendly service, but the food trends adventurous. For kids or cautious eaters, options are limited to simpler salads or pasta like the mushroom stroganov; there is no specific kids menu. If your crew enjoys trying new flavors, it can work; otherwise, choose nearby stalls with more familiar fare.
