Washington County is one of the great, stunningly beautiful counties in Upstate New York.  The county, with a population of only 60,000 residents, has many small towns and villages to visit and enjoy (none of them has more than 6,000 residents).  And the county has a bountiful array of great places to stop for a bite along your roadtrip in here.

This gallery is a starter list of great places to dine in along your Washington County journey.  The list includes an ice cream parlor, a fine steak house, one of the great seafood restaurants in the region, a couple of excellent pizza and Italian places, and a few diners and cafes.  You have to like places with names like Busty's Bar and BBQ, and Sally's Hen House.  Each is very popular with locals and visitors passing through.

One place on this list is actually located in an 1840s original post-and-beam blacksmith shop.  The food items along the way are varied, tasty, and there are plenty of surprises around each bend of the road.

Washington County is a gem.  Located near Glens Falls and Saratoga Springs, the county is lush with woods, rivers, creeks, and historic covered bridges (four of them, all listed on the National Register of Historic Places).
