Our Airbnb…read morehost recommended this place but honestly it was the Yelp reviews that sold me on it-- i had to try their dessert! Our group ordered a bunch of burgers and took heed of some reviewers' warnings-- the burgers are kinda small so you'll want a double or a whole other burger if you're hungry! For me, they were just the right size to satisfy! I got the sLAMBer burger which was SO GOOD, such an amazing mix of flavors that I couldn't stop gushing about how good it was! I heard similar sounds of approval from friends enjoying their burgers (the jam one was really popular in our group). Fries weren't spectacular but when you want fries, a GOOD fry is all you need. Now the honey pie! 3 of us ordered a slice and I think everyone enjoyed it! It's a sweet baked good unlike anything I've really had before and the salt flakes on top help to cut the sweetness. It was a bit too sweet for me to eat on my own in one sitting but I still liked it! I wish they delivered but we didnt mind picking up the order since it was only 6 min away by car! I originally thought the prices were sorta expensive for burgers but honestly not that bad because what you get is so delicious. I'm super interested in trying their 16 oz matcha milkshake... next time!

We finished ordering and sat down to wait for our food. A few minutes later the woman who took our order came to our table and said "You ordered truffle fries, correct?" To which we answered yes. She then said "well, truffle fries are $4 extra and I only charged you for regular, you'll need to pay $4 more if you still want them." We paid the extra, but I felt like the cost should have been eaten by them since they screwed up.

Busy but it seemed to move along fairly well and the wait time for our food wasn't terribly long and so worth it!! There were 6 of us and we all enjoyed every single bite. I must say it's the best fried chicken sandwich on bruss slaw I've ever eaten. Crispy, not greasy and oh so tender and full of scrumptious flavor. The hand pounded fries also yummy. I'd for sure go again.

He still argued with her and she obviously was upset. Everything in that review is false. It was a misunderstanding. We go into Zoey's regularly and the staff is always welcoming and nice. The two young ladies are always running around and I've never once seen them be unsanitary.

Quick summary: Amazing burgers - and this claim from someone who is not a huge burger fan…read more I ate here for the first time last week - while on vacation. My wife is a big burger fan (FYI: she raved about her burger, too), so I decided to try the place out, since we were in the area. Bit hard to locate, but parking was fine. Since the weather was good, we ate outside. There is both open air & tent-covered seating options. Speaking of seating - you must memorize your table # BEFORE going inside to order as meals are delivered to your table. I ordered the "Big Daddy M": 6oz beef, medium-cooked, with Bayley Hazen blue cheese, caramelized onions, bacon bits, garlic aioli, bibb lettuce and red onions. What a heavenly, savory combination. Each bite was full of flavor. And the French Fries? Well, super tasty as well - I ate every potato fried crumb. At other places, fries are usually bland, but not here. The order service inside was pleasant and quick; be sure to note the chalk board with a list of food options (e.g. my Wife ordered a custom burger, just the way she wanted). After ordering we went back outside to our #'d table - wait for the food was relatively quick. When done eating, just leave your baskets, etc. on the table (there is a sign stating this practice). Note: while I did not have kids here, there were plenty of families with young kids & toddlers. I definitely want to try this place a 2nd time.

Didn't know what a shaved egg was but found out it was a hard boiled egg sliced up. The sourdough isn't like the good quality I'm used to and it tasted like generic white bread. The food sustained me, but it was nothing spectacular. I did appreciate the eclectic 90s playlist that was on.

Vince, the owner, genuinely cares about every guest's experience. His pride in the lodge is evident, and I especially appreciated his honesty--he'll be the first to tell you this isn't a luxury four-star hotel. Instead, it's something even more memorable: a comfortable, safe, welcoming lodge full of character. It's like your favorite well-worn pair of slippers or a cozy blanket--relaxed, familiar, and exactly where you want to unwind after a busy day. Dennis runs the bar like Cheers--before long, everyone knows your name. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, and it's easy to strike up conversations with both locals and fellow travelers. The rooms are basic but clean, the beds are comfortable, the water pressure is fantastic, and fresh towels are provided every day (thank you Terri!). We also loved the restaurant and bar, especially the daily specials like Meatball Monday, Taco Tuesday, and Burger Wednesday. The food was consistently delicious and reasonably priced.

For the 2nd time in a couple of years I stayed at the Upper Pass Lodge as part of a ski trip…read more Located at the base of Magic Mountain in Londonderry, Vt. it is conveniently about halfway between Okemo and Mount Snow where we had planned to ski on the Epic Pass. Upper Pass is a very nice ski lodge with a nice Vermont feel. The room was spacious and clean and in addition to the main bedroom there was a smaller bedroom with bunk beds and a sink. The decor was nice without being overbearing. Plenty of room, good TV, a desk and couple of comfortable beds. The bathroom was fine with a good shower. There was a small coffee maker in the room and they also stocked the room with some breakfast bars. The rooms do not have a refrigerator or microwave. In the lobby of the lodge is the Red Slate restaurant and bar which are not open on Monday or Tuesday. There is also a nice living room with a fireplace, couches and lots of games. Upper Pass Lodge is an excellent option if you are looking to stay in the Londonderry area. The lodge is welcoming and friendly, it has a great feel as an independent hotel, plus on the times I have stayed it has offered outstanding value for lodging on a Vermont ski trip. Okemo is about 1/2 hour away and Mount Snow is a bit further. The Upper Pass Lodge does hospitality right.

It looked pretty but tasted average. The brussel sprouts were just fried, no flavor, no balsamic, nothing. Bland ! The green beans were drowned in garlic which saved them. Espresso martinis were good. The yellow fin tuna appetizer was decent and the crispy rice it was served on was tasty. Still on the bland side.. more rice than tuna. We ordered a winter salad to go and it was literally such a joke of a salad, especially for the price. A handful of mixed greens, two tiny slivers of squash, a sprinkle of red onion, disgusting dressing, and a quarter sized amount of cranberries. Little 2oz cup of goat cheese (which was the best part). Absolutely laughable. We ordered the tartufo flatbread and again, just bland. Didn't taste any truffle and it just wasn't great. The best thing I had by far was the brownie with icecream. Definitely the best part of the gigantic meal we had.
