Caesar salad (huge portion), Brussels sprouts (pathetic portion and very dried out), little neck clams (unfortunately made me sick)
James N.

Came here for dinner and would recommend coming for breakfast instead as dinner was subpar. Service was friendly and they weren't busy on a Monday night. Didn't have a reservation and there were plenty of open tables. Not a huge menu, but got a Caesar salad, little neck clams, and a side of tallow fried Brussels sprouts. They all came out at once, which was a little odd because I would've preferred the salad first. The Caesar salad was extremely large, you could easily share it between two if not three people. The croutons were good. The romaine was very white/stems though, I prefer more of the leafy green part but this was pretty much all crunch white stems. The clams were alright but I would've preferred the Cajun garlic white wine sauce, not the creamy tomato sauce they make it with now. The clams were all opened but most of them were not warm besides the bottom ones in the sauce. The Brussels sprouts was a tiny portion and very dried out. Certainly not worth the $9 for a side. They had no flavor either, it's like they had been cooked earlier in the day and just sat under the heater or re heated. Service was fine. This would've been around a 3 star experience, as I left with a pretty mediocre impression, however less than a few hours later I started feeling very sick and got diarrhea and started vomiting. I rarely vomit, I don't have a sensitive stomach. The clams must've been bad and I shouldn't have eaten lukewarm clams. This made for a horrible evening. I was excited to try this place due to the good reviews but it went from disappointing to downright disastrous.

Returned to the Stowe area and made it a point to make it back to butler's pantry. Wasn't quite the pandemonium that it was on Columbus Day but it also wasn't slow either. Used Yelp check in to the waitlist but it was essentially useless as we had to check in and wait when we got there anyway. Hostess seemed confused when I mentioned the waitlist. There was a bunch of outdoor seating in use this time since it wasn't as cold, which seemed to help move the list along. Food was really good, just like our first visit. We had a mix of eggs and French toast and it didn't matter what you ordered as everything was cooked to absolute perfection. The maple sausage is still one of the highlights. It's a little on the pricier side, but the quality justifies the cost.

We had a great breakfast during our visit, due to its popularity we got on the waitlist and checked in when we arrived. We walked around for a bit and came back when we were 3rd on the list and were seated quickly. The host Jairo and our waiter at the bar Nicolas were wonderful.

We got here around 9am on a Sunday and only had to wait about 20 minutes for a table inside. Service was friendly and efficient. I got the jalapeno cheddar pancakes which were great. I enjoy the spicy / savory flavor with the syrup. My husband liked his chocolate chip pancake as well.

THREE WORDS: JALAPEÑO CHEDDAR PANCAKES. This was the last breakfast we had in Stowe and my family has been coming to Stowe for years and we never knew about this place! It's situated right in the heart of Main St across from the iconic steepled church and offers a wonderful breakfast. We opted to join their waitlist but they were able to seat us as soon as we arrived. Their menu has a lot of breakfast options but the jalapeño cheddar pancakes were out of this world. So tasty and paired well with the syrup! Definitely put this on your list. The interior is so cozy and inviting like you're sitting in your family's dining room!

Biscuit and gravy with an egg swimming

We visited Stowe VT this summer and enjoyed breakfast at the Butler's Pantry. Food is excellent and service is great. I enjoyed the biscuit and gravy. Jared T provided attentive service and the house is interesting old. My wife enjoyed an omelette with several ingredients that add up nicely on the bill (watch out)! In all fairness the value is good and food is presented well. Seating on the patios is an option in fair weather. Highly recommend

Meat lovers egg white omelette

This is a must try restaurant for breakfast. Two hour wait when we walked in for a couple. We almost left but glad we stayed. We were seated within 30 minutes! Electronic kiosk at door to place names on list. The restaurant is also an inn so you will have the guests coming down for meals. Not sure if they have preferential treatment for seating. The restaurant oozes vintage New England ambiance. It is a rustic dining area with big bar area. There is limited seating which explains the long wait times. We ordered a coffee, tea, and fresh squeezed orange juice. I was served a very good cup of coffee and they offered a small box full of various tea options. They do have full bar so brunch drinks are definitely offered. I asked the server for the must try menu item, "French toast!" before I finished the question. So I ordered the butler's pantry breakfast with maple sausage and ONE slice of French toast. My lady ordered meat lovers egg white omelette. Both breakfasts included home fries and their home made buttermilk biscuits! The omelette was prepared with farm fresh eggs, chunky ham, maple sausage, and bacon with melted cheese. The home fries may have been slightly over cooked. The French toast did not disappoint with Vermont maple syrup and powdered sugar. Both meals were worth the wait. Now the patrons next to us ordered jalapeño cheddar pancakes smothered in hollandaise sauce and syrup! Are you kidding me? That guy looked me dead in the eye and without speaking one word. I knew I missed out on something special. Parking is tricky in center of Stowe but restaurant does have small lot behind restaurant.

One of the greatest breakfasts of my life! Walked into this dreamy sunlit cafe 8am on a Monday and had the most incredible homemade biscuit with egg and cheese and this sweet maple sausage that was so out of this world, we ordered more on the side. Got a side of Blueberry pancakes with Vermont maple syrup, which were everything you want pancakes to be, as was the side of French toast sticks made from their biscuit, slightly crunchier than the average French toast and so good. Really recommend ordering a la carte so you can try as much as possible. Invigorating fresh-squeezed orange juice. Would come back tomorrow (if it was open Tuesdays). 5 stars!!!!!

French toast
Cole D.

Phenomenal place and service. One of the few breakfasts spots in the city. Get there at 7:50 and get on the waitlist. You'll wait for an hour. French toast is a must. Eggs Benedict nothing great. Hot chocolate was awesome. Great funny bartender. Cool to eat in such a cool spot. Very popular. The French toast id go back for.

Super good breakfast. French toast. Spicy pancakes and eggs Benedict are all good. Long wait in the weekend and kitchen stops at 12p so get there early

My wife and I loved our visit to this fun and friendly gastropub in Stowe. It was crowded for a…read moreWednesday night, but the staff was friendly and efficient. We waited about 15 minutes for a table. Not bad at all!! Our server was energetic and accommodating. She cheerfully answered all our questions and honored our request to get a margherita pizza as an appetizer. The aforementioned pizza arrived in no time. It was good. Not the best ever, but still quite solid. The star of the culinary show was the salmon entree. Both my wife and I got it and we both loved it. It was a big piece of wood fired salmon and came with a nice assortment of roasted veggies. I'm talking real veggies--zucchini, broccoli, fingerling potatoes, the works. Neither one of us are big drinkers, but there are LOTS of microbrews on tap if you're into that kind of thing. The dining room was lively without being too noisy. Both of us enjoyed hanging out there. It would be a great place to have a beer and watch baseball on TV. Will definitely return the next time I'm in town.

Let me cut to the chase: get the steak frites or anything else with the chimichurri. It's going to…read morechange your life and you can go ahead and thank me later. The poutine was very good, but I'll grant you that it's maybe hard to get that wrong - but their gravy is on point! Service was great - got there around 5:40pm on a Wednesday, so the wait was non-existent and a table for 5 was easy to accommodate. Duncan was the server, who disclosed that he was new but you wouldn't know it from how he took orders and brought food out. Even threw him a curve by asking for the steak frites with an additional side of brussel sprouts, which he handled no problem - even though there weren't any sides I saw on the menu. Steak was medium rare and perfectly seasoned, and I think I mentioned the chimichurri but it deserves additional mention. Maybe you're wondering about beverages. The maple lemonade is great - it leans harder on the tart side and there are sweeter options around (Cliff House) but I love a lemonade that tastes... lemony. Pineapple cherry punch was also a hit - but that's secondhand hearsay, unlike my direct opinion on the chimichurri - which I would drink if I could. Definitely check this place out. The table near ours seemed to immensely enjoy their meal and also get great service from Duncan.
