Perfectly situated along one of the most traveled roads and the main boat launch inside the village of Saranac Lake, a culinary oasis awaits food enthusiasts and grocery shoppers alike! Fusion Market, a family-owned business, has been catering to the diverse palates of locals and visitors since it first opened its doors in 2010. With its exceptional fusion of cuisines, carefully curated grocery selection, friendly staff, and convenient location, Fusion Market has become a beloved destination for those seeking a one-of-a-kind gastronomic experience.

A journey through time

Opening its doors in 2010, Fusion Market quickly established itself as a go-to destination for those seeking an inspired blend of flavors. The owners, Pragma and Panesh Prajapati, previous owners of E&M Market, had a loyal following of local residents who counted on them for their weekday lunches and snacks, and happily followed the family to their new deli and market, conveniently located on Route 3. The new location was once home to a gas station and mini-mart, which was converted into the beautiful building that houses Fusion Market and a second floor space today. Fusion also offers outdoor seating and picnic tables in the summer months, looking out at picturesque Lake Flower views. Over the years, Fusion has gained a reputation for its diverse selection of food, groceries, and craft beer, and regulars know they will receive excellent service (often being called by name by the friendly shop owners). The passion and commitment of the Prajapati family is felt within the business. They have poured their heart and soul into creating a culinary haven that resonates with the community. In a world where impersonal transactions have become the norm, Fusion Market stands as a testament to the enduring value of personal connections and genuine care.

A culinary adventure

What truly sets Fusion Market apart is its fusion cuisine that marries diverse culinary traditions to create a menu that tantalizes the taste buds. Sure, they offer all of the deli basics you’d expect: turkey, ham, roast beef, (we all know our orders), but on top of that, Fusion is also a hub for authentic Indian cuisine! Every Thursday their specials are transformed from specialty subs or burgers into a list of authentic Indian dishes, prepared by Pragma in the upstairs kitchen. 

From mouthwatering curry dishes, to classic favorites like Chicken Tikka Masala, the flavors and aroma of every item on the menu is a celebration of their culinary traditions. Both Paresh and Pragma are from the western Indian state of Gujarat, and the recipes they cook at Fusion come from family recipes back in India. Each bite is a testament to the chef's care and dedication to delivering an authentic dining experience that honors family traditions.

Groceries with a difference

Beyond its delectable menu, Fusion Market also offers a thoughtfully curated selection of grocery items that cater to the discerning shopper. From its selection of craft beverages to basic conveniences, to international ingredients, the market stocks a wide range of products that reflect the global influences present in its cuisine. This means that whether you're looking for specialty ingredients to recreate your favorite dishes at home, the perfect beverage to elevate your evening, or unique (and familiar) snacks to satisfy your cravings, Fusion Market has you covered.

A family affair

One of the most heartwarming aspects of Fusion Market is its status as a family-owned business. The Prajapati’s raised their children in Saranac Lake, and their daughter frequently helps at the cash register. Even the staff that are not family have been at Fusion for years and feel like a part of the business. Every dish, every ingredient, and every interaction is infused with the care and passion that only a family can provide. As a regular myself, I find comfort in knowing that they anticipate my order whenever I call. Pragma will laugh and say “I know…with ranch” as I echo her.

In the heart of Saranac Lake

In the heart of Saranac Lake, where the beauty of nature converges with the joys of culinary exploration, Fusion Market stands out as a place of community, convenience, and variety. Its prime location along a bustling road and near the main boat launch and park, makes it a perfect one-stop-shop for travelers and locals alike, heading out on their daily adventures. With everything from sandwiches, drinks, ice, fire wood for camping, and other essentials, you can be out the door in minutes, ready to take on the day. Fusion Market in Saranac Lake is more than just a place to eat or shop; it's a destination that has cemented itself as a cherished cornerstone of the village.


Perfectly situated next door to boat rentals at Adirondack Lakes & Trails Outfitters or HK Boat Rentals, and on the way to countless other adventures, check out Fusion Market before your next Adirondack adventure!
