Probably opened in 1959, the Old Forge Restaurant was adjacent to the Forge Motel. By the time Jack found the old Restaurant, it had been converted into the Adirondack Family Buffet. Note the log cabin effect on the building's right side below the windows! Outdated Internet listings indicate that the Restaurant may have been called "Maloy's Main Street Bar & Grill" and perhaps "The Back Door" prior to its conversion to the buffet.
