    I'd like to give this place a higher rating, they deserve it on some levels, but there are things…read morethat could be improved. The "for sale" sign in the front yard makes me think that there is no reason for them to bother with the improvements though. The inn's owner/hostess is charming and incredibly sociable. The waitress, again friendly. However, none of them seem to be in any hurry to get the job done. That's fine for a leisurely meal, but if I had somewhere to be (a movie, concert, etc.), I would have to plan extra time. We visited on Saturday evening and the restaurant was quiet. Only one other couple were in the establishment, and it was clear that they knew the waitress, who was doubling as bartender. I heard far more about government conspiracies and menopause than I ever wanted to. Plus, the language out of that woman's mouth was an embarrassment. I doubt she ever realized we could hear her, but we heard every word. Her mouth is the reason I can't say the restaurant is good for kids. Granted, she won't always be there, but had I brought my kids, they would have walked away knowing all too well how to pronounce the S-word and the F-word. The food is amazingly fresh and excellent quality. While the owner did tell us she hates cooking, that it's too stressful, she's good at her job. I've had clam chowder in many coastal restaurants and this one was clearly homemade. The clams may have been canned, we do live a little far from the ocean to expect fresh clams, but the taste of the herbs and red peppers came through clearly. It was also creamy and thick without being too thick. The salad bar was stocked well and everything was fresh. The bread, definitely tasted day-old, but the vegetables at the salad bar were fresh. There's a good variety of vegetables, dressings, toppings, and then even cottage cheese. Bottom line - Expect a bit of a wait for service. The food is awesome and the staff members are friendly. For the money, this is definitely a great deal.

    Food was good but the owners would not honor a restaurant.com certificate eventhough we met the…read moreminimal requirement. When we questioned it, we were given excuse after excuse.Needless to say we reported them to resaurant.com. It is a shame because we would have gone back to the restaurant but now we will never go back. They lost good business.

Upon finally contacting them, Brad starts yelling starts me bc he doesn't agree with the timeline I provided. Good thing everything is time stamped. Any person in hospitality who thinks this is acceptable operating practices is out of their mind. 0/10 do not recommend this. Apparently in Vermont, hospitality isn't a thing. He emailed me back but did not call me back, I had to call them...again. He said " oh well we left a note." unbelievable.

    This is a wonderful little B&B in Northern Vermont, and is definitely a quiet and relaxing, or even…read moreromantic, get away for anyone who is looking. My parents, my girlfriend, and myself decided to give this place a try for a trip/visit while my parents were up. We did book about a month or 2 weeks out, and didn't have any problems getting the rooms. My mom picked it out specifically due to the fact that it was pet friendly. (My mom has a Chihuahua that is very much like a discover card... she never leaves home without it... err, him.) If you check out their website, you'll be able to see the owner's wonderful cats and dogs that are usually hiding someone on the property, if not looking for your attention. ;-) The location is great. Nestled off the beaten path, err... road, and set between a few rolling hills and plenty of wooded acreage. It is a beautiful scene and get-away that's great to see any season of the year. Though I highly recommend mid to late fall with the changing colors of the leaves and foliage. The owner's are VERY nice people. Greeting us and helping us with our bags, giving us information about the house, area, and the sites to see. They even suggested a few nice places for us to grab dinner the local towns, although they also offered a cooked dinner in the B&B as well. The family den area is very nice and cozy, with plenty of places to sit and read, watch a bit of TV, check your email, or play a game of chess. There is even a wood burning stove if you just want to sit by the heat/fire and talk. There are also large glass windows/doors that let in plenty of light and offer a view of the back yard and pool area. The word "back yard" doesn't provide much justice either because the view is actually very nice/pleasant. The rooms are very nice, well kept, and definitely inviting. My parents stayed downstairs in the "Presidential Suite" which has a canopy bed, and a little sitting room attached, along with a private bath and a sliding door for access to the back yard. My mom thought this room would be best for letting the dog in and out when/if needed. The hard wood floors, and wood post bed make this room feel a bit old, but in a good way! Me and my girl stayed in the Foliage room upstairs, which had a HUGE king bed, private bath, and a small TV to fall asleep too. :-P The bed was very comfy, and the overall room was very clean. The bathroom had a very classic modern feel to it, which I kept talking about during our stay. It was a neat bathroom... LOL In the morning we were all welcomed with a nice, and healthy, breakfast. Lime zest pancakes with turkey bacon, diced potatoes, and coffee/juice. Top off the pancakes with some local Vermont maple syrup and it's almost heavenly! Overall this was a great experience (though a bit of a drive), and I would HIGHLY recommend it for a weekend get-away. Great for hiking on the property or in the area, and the city of Burlington isn't far away if you want to get out and do some shopping. If you in the marketplace for a quick retreat, I'd suggest checking this one out.

    One of the best evenings we have had in the past ten years. No question about it. Ranks with fine…read moredining big city restaurants. With the dismal and abominably warm winter New England has had in 2022-2023 ski season, we decided to go as far north as we could without crossing the border with Canada, so we lodged and had a superb weekend at Jay Peak, VT. In addition, one of my college classmates and Air Force career colleagues lives in nearby Montgomery Center, so he recommended the Black Lantern and it was one of the best recommendations ever. First of all, the history. Montgomery VT has the most covered bridges in a single town jurisdiction in the US. The area had a role to play in the War of Independence, when construction on the Bailey-Hazen Military Road to Hazen Notch began in 1777 as a way for the Continental Army to invade Quebec. Hazen's Notch Road begins a few blocks from the Black Lantern. The Inn was built in 1803 and remained as an Inn until it closed down in 2015. A group of concerned citizens bought the historic property, remodeled it, bought another building to expand the business, and reopened it in 2018. Its six rooms in the historic lodge and the four suites in the annex, allow for vacationers to stay in the historic town with close proximity to Jay Peak. But this review is for the dining. The truly fine dining offered here. We made reservations and they were honored on the spot, considering the restaurant was certainly busy. The beautiful, cozy and early American decor matched the ambiance and persona of the place. We got together with our friends and were seated in a wonderful location with privacy. The Black Lantern has joined into the farm to table movement and it shows in the amazing, fresh and abundant food available at the venue. Their beef and pork come from a local natural farm a few miles away. So does their lamb, coming from a local farmer. Their chicken is local. Their cheeses are from several Vermont producers including the ubiquitous Cabot Cheese, but also the Boucher Family Farm, the Jasper Hill Farm and the Vermont Creamery. Fresh vegetables come from nearby sources. The local and fresh sourcing of their food shows in the quality and taste of everything on the menu. And then there's their beers.... Local breweries and micros make an extensive part of their menu. Burlington's Fiddlehead, Zero Gravity and Queen City, St Alban's 14th Star beer, and Essex's First Republic. Their ciders are sourced from three locations in Vermont and even they carry wine from local producers. And their coffee is fair trade certified and roasted in town by Big Jay Roasters. The meal was impressive. We started the evening with Fried Yuca infused with truffle oil - succulent, and their Fried Brussel Sprouts that came encrusted with bacon, Gorgonzola and Parmesan cheeses. Crispy, tasty, superb. Then the salads for everyone. Fresh, crispy, beautiful. And it was time for main courses. I had their Chicken Curry stew which turned out delicious. Two of us had the lobster ravioli, made on the premises and as one of our group said, "heavy on the lobster" with not much filler. And then the steaks. About a pound and a half, perfectly seared with marbled pink inside. Truly amazing. Sadly, we had no room for dessert. With amazingly generous portions and two shared appetizers, we were stuffed. But what an evening. Service was impeccable.
