📣 AN INCREDIBLY BIG ANNOUNCEMENT, LATITUDE FAMILY! 📣

We wanted to share some major news with all of our amazing customers here at Latitude 44 Bistro. Soon, you’ll be seeing a brand-new addition just across the parking lot!

We have officially purchased LakeShore Candy and are thrilled to get things up and running in the near future. When we first heard that the business was up for sale, we admit we were a bit apprehensive—but more than anything, we wanted to ensure that this amazing local staple stayed right here in our community for another generation to enjoy. We just knew it was the perfect fit for our little boutique plaza!

Our goal is to continue all of the wonderful traditions that the Jensen family, the previous owners, built, while also introducing some fresh new elements and an expanded space. For updates, sneak peeks, and more information on our progress, make sure to like and follow the LakeShore Candy page! Thank you all for your continued support—we can’t wait to share this next chapter with you! 🍫✨

14 Years of Latitude 44
Today started out as just another regular Friday. I had my head down, focusing on the daily grind, even though today officially marks 14 years since we first opened our doors. The reality of the restaurant industry is tough—so many places across the country don't get the privilege to stand the test of time, let alone for over a decade.
But walking into my office this morning completely changed the day. My family had it entirely decorated with balloons, cards, candy, and little knick-knacks. As the doors opened, customers started coming in bringing cards of their own.
What I treated as just a regular day quickly turned into a deeply emotional milestone. It made me pause and realize that Latitude 44 isn't just important to me—it truly means something to the people around us, too.
I want to say a massive thank you to our incredible customers, my family, my friends, and every single one of our employees—both past and present. You are the reason we are still standing here today. Thank you for 14 years, Plattsburgh.
