4 weeks agoMost of the food was good. Oyr waitress was good, she could've checked on how we were doing, but no biggy. I went to the stand where a waitress was making out a check for her customer to ask and question but I was ignored and treated like I didn't exist! We just dumped 300.00 at our tables. This person left me with a bad taste in my mouth. Be a while before we go again if at all.

a month agoWe were four of us for dinner and not one meal was memorable. My Fish & Chips was over-cooked with dry hard batter and small. Another meal Steak Tips were under-cooked for a well done order and had to go back to kitchen. Third dish Broiled Haddock was not very appealing. Smash burger was only meal that was not wrong. Waitress seemed to be in a hurry to get customers in and out, so we felt rushed. This was one of our favorite restaurants, but we have decided it is no longer such or worth the hour long drive. Wayside nearby is way less expensive and much more reliable for food quality and friendly service.

2 months agoEverything was delicious! Some of the best Mac n’cheese I’ve had in VT, which is saying a lot. The steak was delicious, something that’s rare in New England. Good prices for the big portions and quality. You get what you pay for.

2 months agoWe were there on November 29, 2025. We ordered an appetizer that took 20 minutes. I had the chicken sandwich. I wish I would have taken a picture of it. It was deep fried and serene to me very brown and burnt. Needless to say the chicken was dried out. I couldn’t believe that was served to me. When the waitress asked how everything was I said this sandwich is inedible. No, I didn’t pay for the meal. My daughter’s Mac and cheese sauce was broken and tasteless. Not going back.

3 months agoThe place looks really good it is like a bar and old fashion ceiling nice flooring. The person who served me was quick on time and didn’t bother me to much and also pretty nice.the food I had was the chicken sandwich with the poutine side the chicken didn’t have much seasoning but the sauce bun and pickles made the juicy flavour come out.the poutine was really good flavour wise it was a bit too cheesy for me. But at the end of my experience thier was fantastic
