    I enjoyed the experience here immensely: small town diner, great service, accommodating even with small requests such as a side of gravy for fries.

    Walking in we thought this place was very cute. It definitely has a rustic feel to it. We…read moreprobably waited about a minute to be seated but the hostess/waitress was busy taking orders. We were given a menu as we were seated and she returned to get our drink orders quickly. The menu here isn't huge, but had a good variety. I opted for fish n chips, my mom and dad both ordered the clam strips, my uncle had pot pie, and my aunt had the fried chicken dinner. Brussel sprouts were the vegetable of the day. I remember that only because I hate them, lol. None of us ordered the veg. Because my aunt had fried chicken she said it would take a bit longer. It wasn't a horrible wait, though, and we all really enjoyed our meals. The haddock was cooked perfectly and I love the tartar sauce there! I meant to take pictures but was to busy eating. Was to full for dessert but they sounded amazing!

    This place is rustic. Kinda dark inside and old. We had baked seafood combos. I prefer scallops…read morefried but they were ok. Shrimp good and haddock lacked flavor. The side dishes were ok as well. Dessert was tasty. Prices not bad. Service was very good. Would I come back? Probably not

What you'd hope for in an updated rustic old Vermont building. 2. The service has been excellent on both visits, with the caveat that breakfast is busy and the food took a long time to arrive. 3. Breakfast was solid. Not transcendent but solid eggs and toast and home fries and coffee and everybody seemed happy. Room for improvement 1. For Putney Vermont - get some decent vegan and vegetarian options. 2. The veggie burger was bean based, mushie old-school 70's style. Fell apart as soon as you picked it up. 3. The cheeseburger was good. It's just that for $18 you could show a little more attention to detail. A greenish slice of winter tomato. A single leaf of iceberg lettuce. 2 ringlets off an onion slice. And no pickle. 4. The fries that came with it had to be sent back to be cooked longer. And there was a big puddle of oil on the plate once I slid the par-cooked fries onto a side dish. The server was lovely about it and they came back fast and cooked through. But my guess is the oil wasn't hot enough hence the grease puddle. 5. The chicken orzo soup was meh. I don't try it. Brought it home for sick family member. And sorry but my personal pet peeve - the pre-calculated tip options were 20,22,25% and all calculated on top of the sales tax. Understand that it has gotten VERY expensive to go out for a burger for your average local. So putting a little more attention into it would be greatly appreciated. All the best, and thank you.

    I was on a girls trip to VT and we stopped at the Putney for lunch. Really the food is 4 but the…read moreoverall experience was a 3 . We pulled into the parking area and asked the workers we saw outside where the handicap entrance was and the kid looked at me like I was crazy. He said I don't know. I asked if he worked there and he said yes. ok is there a ramp? He asked another worker who told us to go to the other side of the building. One in our party is in a wheel chair and this place just squeaks by as being accessible. The ramp is old and feels very unsafe and when we got to the top there was no signage and there are no safety handles. It's scary. Once inside we had a wonderful experience. There is ample seating and it's rustic and cute. Our server was very nice Now the food: I got a Patty melt on rye with sweet potato fries (adding a side of maple syrup to dip those fries is a must) the burger was ok but was much too small for the bun. Friend 1 got a juicy mushroom burger with fries. It was very good. Fries are homemade and delicious. Friend 2 got a chicken wrap that tasted very fresh and was delicious. Side of sweet potato fries as well. Over all food is really good but not very wheelchair friendly
