If you are driving or biking up historic, scenic Route 100 into the North East Kingdom of Vermont - Eden General Store is a great stop over point. With the real, old time General store flavor with its wooden floors, crammed shelves - for Northern Vermont where there are few big chain grocery stores - this one offers craft beers, essential needs if you are staying in a cottage, cold cuts, salads and fresh baked pizza. They also have real butchers on premise which is why the locals prefer to buy their meat here - as they say it is often more tasty than the bigger stores. The staff is pleasant and hepful - - and they have gas!
Please be aware that most of rural Vermont does close early - so make sure you get your gas, food and groceries early - do call ahead to make sure they are open! read more
