From Long Island and go to great adventure a lot lol. I pass by this spot every time and I finally stopped in this summer, July 4th weekend and the service and food were great. It was maybe 90 degrees out but I really wanted to sit outside in the patio (great lake view and umbrellas for shade). They accommodated that but I DID tell the server my order quickly so she didn’t have to be outside long! I don’t remember her name, but she was awesome! Food was great, the lake view was really nice and the staff was super friendly. I will definitely be back and probably sit inside if its still super hot lol.

Beautiful day to sit outside for a drink. We had the pretzels starter for a some quick food.
We then went inside had ate dinner. Salad bar ro start. Have as much as you want and whatever you want. This is nice because you get want you want.
Dinner was filet mignon. A very costly mistake. The meat was a small piece of fat. Very disappointing for two at the table.
Dessert was rice pudding mush and brownie (if you can find it) with ice cream.
Overall it was a mediocre dinner. I was hoping for better.

The Happy Apple Inn is a charming getaway with an unbeatable location right next to the river, offering stunning views and a relaxing atmosphere. The natural beauty surrounding the inn makes it an ideal spot to unwind, whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning coffee or watching the sunset over the water.
The ambiance is warm and welcoming, with a rustic charm that adds to the overall experience. The service is friendly and attentive, making guests feel right at home. While the food has room for improvement, it is still above average, with a selection that complements the cozy, inviting setting.
If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with beautiful scenery and a great atmosphere, The Happy Apple Inn is a wonderful choice. Whether you’re visiting for a weekend getaway or just stopping by for a meal, the combination of nature, hospitality, and charm makes it a memorable destination.

Went Saturday, December 13th. Had a 7:30 reservation for 6 (4 adults, two toddlers). We were seated right away. It took 15 minutes for a waitress to ask if we wanted drinks. We said we were ready to order. It took 45 minutes to receive our orders. They didn’t bring out the children’s meals first. After being served our meals, the waitress did not come back to check on us. It wasn’t that crowded, so obviously there was a problem with the chef in the kitchen. The food was very good and the rooms were beautifully decorated for Christmas. Also, since it’s in an old house, was very cold in the dining rooms downstairs but bathrooms and bars upstairs were warm and comfortable. Also, there is very limited parking. Not sure if there was a handicap ramp.

Food and service was phenomenal!! Our waitress was Anna, and she was perfect! She came to the table frequently to check on us. The salad bar was so fresh and was kept very clean! Our entrees came out hot and crispy but were still so moist!! Also, portions were just enough! The views of the lake are stunning! We’ll be back!

Worst service I’ve ever had. The waitress took our drink and food order, it took her 20 minutes for her to come back to me to tell me the drink isn’t available. I put in another order and another 20 mins later she brings me the wrong drink and runs away. Then she doesn’t come by our table for 30 mins, when I finally am able to wave her over to say that I got the wrong drink. It took over an hour and I still didn’t have a drink at my table, meanwhile the people behind us got 3 rounds of drinks in that time. The calamari and its sauce were awful, I’ve had so much better. Also at this point we still had not received our dinner order which we put in from the moment we sat down. I asked to cancel because I had somewhere to be, so the waitress said ok and came back 5 mins later to say it was coming back out. So I said ok. I’ve worked at several restaurants and at this point I’m shocked a manager didn’t come over to say there’s a delay with food or anything. Anyways, she brings the food out, with no consideration that it’s been 2 hrs and I have to be somewhere so I just ask for to go boxes and my check. I usually never write bad reviews but that waitress was ignoring our table the whole night and it was the worst service I have ever had in my life.

On the corner of where Imlaystown Rd tee intersects (on a hard carve) with Davis Station Rd., sits the Happy Apple Inn in the center of old Imlaystown.The Happy Apple Inn, sits right on Imlaystown Lake. It’s just off the road with little frontage and the intersection is interesting, so Slow Down! There is space for several cars in front and just past the Inn there are two parking lots at the Happy Apple Inn wood sign, on both sides of the road. Paking lots are both dirt, not striped and no designated handicap slots. Unknown condition with rain and/or frozen. Depending on time of day and season, be careful cars can be moving fast, it’s a tight road and people tend to park without a care for the next person.
From the outside you are looking at a old house with the sign Happy Apple Inn letting you know you found it. Inside is waiting an awesome Restaurant in a fantastic well maintained historic building! A welcoming old school dining house atmosphere, with back in the day decor and a bar. This is the way it was back when a Inn had a dining room for guests and the general public when space allowed. This type of dining is often in books and movies but not often found.
So now the food.
First be aware there is a salad bar and bread station tucked away where you can not see it. It is unlimited and offers a nice selection (see photos), so plan your meal accordingly to accommodate for this! The table is set formal but the attire is casual. Keep in mind, this is a very nice place for a dining experiences from just a meal to a romantic date, so dress appropriately, yes. The menu is slightly limited but loaded with first class meals for this price range. Our meals were absolutely marvelous, cooked and seasoned just right and good portion size. Wait staff was friendly, professional and attentive.
Did not order alcoholic beverages and no space for dessert, which is a separate menu.
The bar and outside (when weather allows) seating has a separate menu.
There is a handicap accessible universal bathroom available on first floor and additional male and female bathrooms on the second floor. On the second floor is also space for private events with it’s own bar area.
Enjoyed all.
Not 5 star because of parking.
And
Also note men’s room located 2nd floor top of stairs, does have a lock, not the door or the stall. I advised hostess. Apparently owner is renovating or repairing and will get to it. Maybe there will be a lock soon?
We all have different experiences and this one is mine.

Rustic restaurant by water. Limited parking but cute inside. Food is solid mid tier restaurant fare. Grilled salmon and stuffed chicken breast were good. Their twice baked potato is really good and the salad bar is small but offers nice variety and very good potato salad and coleslaw.
Mixed drink i ordered was lackluster (blueberry mojito came without the blueberries muddled so the blueberries just floated around and added no flavor. Also drink had too much rum so it wasnt balanced. Maybe if the berries were muddled it wouldve been better)
Service was slow for our party (took about an hour or so for food. We had about 30 people) but when the food came it was all at the same time and hot so that was good.
If you want a solid straight forward meal and salad bar Happy Apple Inn is good for that.

I have never written a review before, but I just felt compelled after reading Brenda’s review below me. I was here for the first time last weekend and let me tell you, this place was incredible. From the food to the staff, to the decor, not one bad thing I can say about this place. All I gotta say is, I don’t know what Brenda’s got going on with her, but whatever she said is completely wrong. This place was incredible. We’ll definitely be coming back here.
