What makes downtown Schroon so special for many is that it brings back memories of a more simple time. A stroll down Main Street offers everything you’d need for a week or weekend. In recent years, there’s been a significant upgrade of shops selling some basic staples with the addition of more adventurous retail storefronts.

North Woods Bread Co, with amazing baked goods and more  -- by Edward and Lisa -- led to Pine Cone Provisions. Those ventures are off shoots of Pine Cone Mercantile, the now go to destination for Adirondack home furnishings.

Nine Mile Coffee filled a unique niche for those who needed more of a curated caffeine jolt. They also offer a breakfast and lunch menu. The whole shebang moves into bigger digs this summer.

Now, Main Street Schroon will welcome another culinary addition, catering exclusively to candy lovers. Laura and Buddy Lane are the entrepreneurs behind the new “old school” venture, Pit Stop Sweet Shop. Read more about the couple’s sweet treat adventure in our Food and Drink section.
