You order at the counter and they bring you your food. Coffee is self serve, they don't "require" you to clear your plates but there is a table with bins for dirty plates and trash.

We are so glad we found this place, a minute's drive away from the main street in downtown Stowe…read more Service was warm, friendly, and quick, and menu prices were fair. Lots of seating inside, though mostly four-top tables. It got busy about 20 minutes after we arrived on a weekday around 7:30, so keep that in mind if you're looking to sit inside. We visited specifically for breakfast, ordering pancakes, a Chris Kayler breakfast sandwich without meat or hot sauce, and a Simply breakfast sandwich. This was honestly one of the best breakfasts that we've both had in a long time. We are finicky people who can usually find something to criticize, and we literally have no notes on this meal. Wish it was closer than four hours away from us and hope it stays popular so that we can visit again in the future.

It had been several years since I had tried this cafe, and I am please to say they have improved a…read moregreat deal. I tried another dish the day before but didn't snap a picture that time. Rather than get on a 1 hour wait list at another Stowe cafe, we went back to this one, and were not sorry. Also, we didn't have to wait an hour. The day before, we had arrived just as they officially stopped breakfast, as we couldn't wait out the lengthy reservation at the other place. The lady checked with the kitchen if we could still get a breakfast, (it was 11:05) and the man back there said yes, and did us a lovely one. They did say that the huevos rancheros took a long time to assemble, so we chose something simpler, something with feta and spinach with scramble in a wrap and grilled. The next day we went back for the rancheros because I had remembered how good it was from years ago. Pictures below. If you have things to do and want to just get on with your vacation, try this place. It's not a second choice in my opinion, in fact, I'll be going there first from now on.

A lot of Beetlejuice decorations, we had to come home and re-watch the old classic! Staff were very nice, our waitress however was not knowledgeable about the food, drink options, or beers available on tap. She was very nice, but the "can I get you anything else" she ends every conversation with shows inexperience at best to me. The beers on tap are local craft beers, the two that I had were delicious. Food was excellent! Kids menu is appropriate for kids, with appropriate portions. The burgers are made in-house and not frozen patties bought from a supplier. My wife had the pizza, yes I stole a slice; it was very good with a crispy crust. Very worth a visit!

House Salad was VERY good. Unique, with a maple vinaigrette, crunch onions, sunflower seeds, and strawberries. Such a good mix of sweet and salty. The squash bisque (I think that's what it was) with a brown sugar rim: wonderful. Salmon was beautifully plated with potatoes and some very well seasoned pieces of pork. 5/5 all around.

The ambiance is rustic and charming, old time feel and the wood in the fireplace was crackling and giving off an amazing atmosphere and smell! We were seated by a friendly young lady who said it was her first night back from college on winter break, so she didn't know the extra specials they had, but that was A-OK! The waiter finally came and bless his heart, while nice, was a little nervous, uncertain and uncomfortable. We asked if they had sherry or Port--each time, he had to go back and check. We finally got some Porto (after he came back to the table with 2 options / bottles in hand--all things considered, the Port was great). We finally ordered the Truffled Hummus (nothing truffled about it, it looked and tasted like store-bought hummus). We actually knew the taste was not going to be great at all by the bread that first came out - old bread, just heated. And incredibly yeasty dough. Not good. The Seafood Fra Diablo was a joke - it had frozen small shrimp in it and the TINIEST scallops I have ever seen. See the pictures. My husband and I both had the salmon--the entire dish was incredibly oily. Overall for the quality and taste, the place was overpriced too. We skipped the desert and called it a night. 2 Stars because I think the fireplace was amazing and the Port and the clam chowder was really good. (I forgot to mention it earlier, but my friend did think it was delicious.) Will unfortunately not be returning, still--good Port and soup, and all. Edit: my friend who ordered the Fra Diablo dish has been sick since she had this meal. Terrible experience.

Been here before a while back and it was strained. This time the atmosphere and ambiance were much improved. It's a pub-casual environment and feels relaxed and casual. The service was good, and prompt. No complaints. The primary issue on this review was that I ordered the Buffalo Schnitzel. I had thought it was going to be with some buffalo sauce, but balanced, as the menu simply describes it as "tenderized pork loin, panko fried, buffalo sauce, Caeser salad, bacon, blue cheese" But unfortunately it came out with at least a 1/4 cup of Frank's Red Hot drenching the top of the meat. It so overwhelmed everything, and was not brushed on or anything. Will return to try other options but this visit was a miss.

On the positive side, they were cooked properly. The meat tasted fresh and was hot and juicy with a crisp crust. The fries were crisp and well-seasoned. My spouse had a quesadilla that was fresh, hot, and tasty. For beverages, I had iced tea that tasted freshly made. My spouse had a smoked lager that he tells me was the best beer he'd had in Vermont. It was dark, smoky, and slightly sweet. The place seemed a bit understaffed, but the guy who seated us and took our orders was pleasant and helpful. The wait for food wasn't bad at all. As for ambiance, the place is a rustic bar in a strip center. There's a pool room and video arcade attached. There's outdoor seating available.

When it comes to tavern food you really can't ask for much and I enjoyed my meal! Sometimes you really just want a great burger with greasy fries. Also, the owner was super nice and our service frequently checked in on us. Great staff and establishment and I will definitely be back in the future! I do have to add that my Rimrock burger has some toppings taken off so it is not everything that is included!
