On Thursday, May 15, hundreds of Saratogians showed out for Universal Preservation Hall’s 10th annual Shaken & Stirred celebrity bartender party on the Prime patio. The event pitted teams from eight local businesses against one another in a battle to make the most tips, and while Team Saratoga Living didn’t win it all, we had a damn fun time coming in 5th place. Read our recap of the party on Saratoga Living After Hours, and see scenes from the night by Zack Skowronek below.

For the last few years, The Mouzon House has been hosting special reservation-only, five-course Supper Club dinners on select Friday and Saturday nights.

I first took notice of Keir Weimer when his hospitality brand, Weekender, bought Shaheen’s Adirondack Inn in Tupper Lake in 2022. Then I saw that Weekender was also buying the hotel formerly known as the Copperfield Inn on Main Street in North Creek—the hotel where I worked my first job (and where my friends and I may or may not have taken an unauthorized, nighttime skinny dip when we were in high school). The hotel has been largely moribund for years.
