    3 piggies!
    John A.

    Our first time in VT as guests at a destination wedding, my daughter found this place. Off-season on a Saturday early afternoon it was not too packed. Our server was warm and helpful. The food was top notch outstanding. Highly recommended. We had 3 piggies and the Mountain Cristo. Both meals were delicious!

    special: blackberry chocolate pancakes
    Kristin S.

    Our server Melissa greeted us with an apology for having to wait a while since she was the only server working. After that, she kindly made sure we had all the condiments we needed, and explained the specials enthusiastically, giving them more credit than they ended up deserving. We ordered two specials: a blackberry chocolate pancake ($5.95) and eggs in purgatory ($14). The blackberries were delicious, the only part of our breakfast that had any real flavor. The pancake was small for a diner. The only chocolate present was a modest drizzle--no chips. Better with their syrup, though. We were told the eggs in purgatory dish was made by cooking the eggs with the chef's unique red sauce, and that it had a kick to it. Well, the kick came from sprinkled red peppers one can find at pizza restaurants, and other than that it was tasteless, even down to the diced tomatoes mixed in. No salt, pepper, garlic, herb or cheese, just tasteless goop with hot pepper sprinkles. Good if you like bland, but I left hungry. Didn't eat much of the eggs, or burnt toast that came alongside them. What a waste. We also ordered a surf & turf benedict with extra hollandaise sauce which was brought to us with zero sauce. The kitchen ran out. Instead of the hollandaise, the server explained, the chef added extra lobster and steak. It didn't look like extra. The party next to us arrived shortly after we got our food and got a chance to hear that there was no more hollandaise. We would have appreciated the opportunity to change our order upon realizing that there was none left. What's a benedict without hollandaise? A poached egg on top of carbs. . . tasteless. What should have been a buttered english muffin was a flattened, untoasted bulkie roll. The potatoes that came with this item were also tasteless. Needless to say, for a dish that was advertised as $15 on the menu, it was disappointing. More disappointing? The register regurgitated this price with an additional $3 added onto it. Bamboozling. The price difference wasn't an issue for us, because the server was civil enough to take it off the bill (though without an apology) once we showed her the short curly hair cooked into the white blank canvas of one of the poached eggs from the surf & turf. This service recovery attempt was a bit disappointing, and we felt like we were a burden to the place. We had to wait until the server asked us for a box to tell her about the hair, because she didn't check up on us after she delivered our food. It's very embarrassing to have to report a hair in food in the first place. Combined with the lack of sympathy, we felt like we shouldn't have come. It was enough for us not to want to return to give the place a second shot. Enter at your own risk.

    Very fun spot. Came here to load up on breakfast fuel for a day of riding Stratton. The space reminds me of those famous tiny houses, a style I thoroughly enjoy. Efficient, clean, modern, classy, practical. Case in point, the creamer for our coffee came out in mini milk jugs in a tiny bucket of ice. Perfectly enough, thoughtful and fun. I can hardly wait to come back.

    Got the vegetarian eggs Benedict item. Wasn't impressed. It was pricier than the meat version and the first item was avocado. There is barely any avocado on it and it wasn't even that ripe. This place advertised brunch and brunch drinks but didn't have a drink menu. I ordered and Irish coffee and then scratched that cause the waitress didn't seem to get what I wanted so I got coffee and a shot of whiskey. They didn't have the whiskey I asked for and she couldn't tell me what other ones they had. I went inside and checked it out myself...not sure why she couldn't tell me as there was only three bottles in there. Each time I got a refill on my coffee I had to go inside and get my own sweetener. The seating was limited and cramped feeling even though it was outside. Wouldn't go to again.

    Best tomato soup I've ever had and the meal was fantastic. Waitress had a great personality and was very cheerful she made us feel at home.

Everything in the village was closed, nothing else around and door dash type deliveries not available. Unfortunately it wasn't a great experience. We had a friendly but non attentive server who didn't even mention specials to us, which we only found out midway through our meal when a neighboring table received lobster ravioli which was definitely not on the menu. The menu was odd, with it mostly being pasta dishes and a handful of other options. I noticed there weren't any gluten free options except maybe one thing, in case that's of use to anyone requiring a GF diet. The food was average at best and wildly overpriced for what it was. It lacked atmosphere and felt like a standard ski lodge where you leave your gear for the day, and in no way attempted to resemble a more up scale dining experience. The only positive for us was that it was open when everything else was shut down.

Matter of fact I was so hungry that I forgot to take pictures of my meal! Service was great. Very accommodating staff. As far as noise levels it was pretty calm. Few people here and there dining and enjoying their meals. They also have a nice fireplace which is super cool! Keeps the spot nice and cozy. So there you have it folks. Nice spot in the mountain area to grab a nice meal. Have a great one ya'll! -Ray

It was the perfect setting for a memorable holiday dinner. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with friendly, attentive service from our server, Jamie. The ambiance was warm, inviting, and rich with history, making us feel like we had stepped back in time. We started with an Old Fashioned made with Smugglers' Notch bourbon for me and a refreshing Blueberry Refresher for my wife. The homemade cranberry fritters served with Vermont maple butter were an outstanding way to begin the meal. Next came bowls of the delicious Cheddar & Ale Onion Soup, followed by the Maple Butter & Walnut Encrusted Brie served with Vermont apples and toasted baguette--an excellent combination of sweet, savory, and crunchy flavors. Our entrees were preceded by fresh field greens salads with balsamic vinaigrette and blue cheese crumbles, along with warm, freshly baked bread. I thoroughly enjoyed the Traditional Pot Roast--tender brisket slow-cooked in the tavern's Circa 1790 Amber Ale with rich pan gravy. My wife chose the Scrod with pumpkin seeds, butter, Chardonnay, and lemon, which was perfectly prepared and beautifully balanced. To finish, we shared the Cranberry & Apple Crisp topped with local vanilla ice cream and whipped cream--a fittingly New England ending to an exceptional meal. The combination of outstanding food, welcoming hospitality, and the unique historic atmosphere made for a wonderful dining experience. If you're visiting Manchester, Ye Olde Tavern is well worth a visit, especially if you're looking to enjoy classic Vermont cuisine in one of the state's most historic settings.
