    Heady Topper and Focal Banger are here! Small bar but ski right up to it, seems like a fun place.

    Just moved back to town after being gone for 15 years, needed a night out. But wanted more of a…read moredive bar experience vs what most of St.J has to offer. Had a great time at the Whiskey Den last night! I had been cautious to go in as the previous business in this location was sketchy. I was so pleasantly surprised! Kyle the bartender was friendly and patient (something that can be challenging for bartenders). Music was your typical small town Vermont bar, but mixed it up here and there. Don't get me wrong you will run into classic St. J characters.... But it is a big space so you can find your own corner. Got to speak with the owner Joanna and she was lovely! She is creating a space for everyone, and very strict on keeping out the riff Raff and is careful not to over serve to avoid problems and keep customers feeling safe. .....if you need a break past 9pm in St.J, I would give it a try!

    The whiskey den... very divey. Definitely ran into some characters. Had some nice conversation at…read morethe bar with the owner/bartender Joanna. She is super sweet. I had vodka/club soda and the drink was fine. When I got there it was just me and another guy, one of the most charactery of characters, and some club type music and strobe lights playing for an empty room.... eventually some more people showed up but I think maybe toning down the "trying to be a club" vibe on a quiet Thursday night would be helpful... it just felt kind of silly.

    Went to the old location every week for a year, consistent quality service and food. Did not go for…read morea few years after they moved locations. Went for lunch a few months ago had an incredible experience with our server and food. Reached out to them about catering for a party more than 6 months away. Additionally I brought back my whole family a few weeks later for dinner. 100% completely different experiences. Food was terrible, server was horrendous, they placed us next to a loud Bluetooth speaker that was for the whole restaurant. I had to switch chairs with my partner because I literally couldn't bear how loud it was I couldn't focus. Fast forward to today. Wrapping up the catering menu for the event coming up and ordered a small take out order for myself while passing through from a hike in Franconia. I've ordered the same thing the 3x I've been there. They called me and told me it's not likely I would be able to get it celiac friendly( when every other time I ordered it, they welcomed it with no hesitation), we spoke briefly and the agreed they likely could. They told me it would be ready soon. I got there 10 minutes later and stood at the check in/host stand for 5 minutes. I was looking down the hall where you could hear all the wait staff in their waitstaff room. I waited to catch someone's eye so I could pick up my order. I almost walked down the hall but decided to be patient. As I was about to walk down or call out because it had been so long of standing and waiting I am greeted by a cloud of vape smoke. A few seconds later a server walked out and caught my eye and looked like they had seen a ghost catching them in the act. I told him I was picking up for myself and he said he would be back with it. Another female server followed them out and I asked hey was the vape smoke and she laughed and said it was. I said huh that's pretty bad, she said nothing. I got my food, asked the first servers name. Left. I emailed the person coordinating the catering and he said that he has been getting on the staff about vaping in public spaces and they claimed it was someone vaping outside across the waitstaff room where the door was open. 100% not the case as I literally watched the smoke exit the room they were all in and the servers walking through it after they knew I was there waving it out the outside door. Do not bring your kids here. What really bothered me was the wait staff lying about it to their boss. On top of that. The steak in the Honolulu bowl tasted absolutely disgusting, like it was old/outdated. This is so unfortunate because it use to be amazing, the staff was incredible and food consistent. You will find 100x more consistency at the Little Grille right down the road.
