The Deers Head Inn in Elizabethtown NY was founded in 1808 and is the oldest tavern in the Adirondacks. In the spring of 2016, a new generation of ownership refurbished the building and set out to explore ways that the restaurant could be a showplace for our burgeoning local food movement. Since then, the Deers Head has been continuously cited as one of the best restaurants in the area, celebrated by diners and providers alike as a leader in new North Country cuisine.
