Family is so important to us, so when you enter Dough a Deer, the first thing you'll notice is that you are in someones home; our home. We welcome you with smiles and warmth. Our baker grew up on a farm in Nebraska, our chef was raised in NYC. As a team we learned early, that when you treat people like family, they become family.

It is important to us that when you enter our cafe in Old Forge, NY you feel at home. The ADK life is amazing. The trails, the lakes, and that healthy lifestyle Old Forge offers. To mimic that lifestyle we want to stress how important eating healthy is. You will find so many options at Dough a Deer, that are baked and prepared with local organic ingredients.

Aside from the nearby lakes and trails, this was the only bright spot of my vacation. Fantastic food with gluten free and vegetarian options, and the friendliest employees. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.
They would make a killing if they moved their business to southern Maine!

Went with Family and saw this place on the side of the road. Had a good mask policy, and the employees were excellent. Coffee was great and baked french toast was one of the best morning foods I've had in a long time. Would go again.

My partner and I came here two days in a row - while camping in Old Forge. It was sooo good! So friendly and sweet and the food was incredibly fresh and healthy. If you’re gluten free (or even if you’re not) you have try the gf sourdough. I had my first dalgona here too - it was next level! I am always nervous traveling because I have tummy issues but I felt like a million bucks after eating here. So this review is for all of you health conscious folks looking for ~the~ place. This is the one.

A fantastically cute and friendly eatery run by a dedicated husband and wife who take the utmost pride in their work. Dough a Deer offers some unique and tasty drinks and treats, including a Baked French Toast which is to die for. The quiche lorraine is also a satisfying pick for those wanting something savory. Their menu also offers gluten-free options in the form of their breakfast burritos and angel food cake. While we only experienced the lemonade, it was very light and refreshing. Their other drink options include smoothies, coffees, and teas. Prices are very fair for the location and products

Thank you sooo much Dough a Deer for giving us another reason to adore Old Forge! Every time we stop in to your eatery, we are greeted warmly by you with a new treat try (as well as finding our delicious favorites still on your menu). Today's "new" was gluten free frosted chocolate cake, which was so soft and melted in my mouth. Today's yummy "favorite" was gluten free veggie quiche, for me...amazing! My daughter says your avocado toast is the best she's ever had anywhere! We love what you've added to our Adirondack vacations. After 30 years visiting here, it's wonderful to find homemade gluten
