I highly recommend the Craft Mac 'n Cheese. Maybe the best I've ever had. The hush puppies were also delicious, and OH, the roasted Brussels sprouts. Probably anything here would be great, I imagine.

Incredible food. Don't miss the specials like chicken and waffles or the pulled pork sandwich. Poutine was to die for and I could have drank the bottle rocket hot sauce (instead I took home a bottle!)

Great local Vermont beers. Go for the Heady Topper and Hill Farmstead just voted #1 brewery in the world. For food try the Habanero Wings and the Hosier Daddy (fried pork loin sandwich).
Ted RoehmJuly 13, 2017
The only place I was able to find Heady Topper. One of my fav restaurants on our trip. Food was amazing!
Steph GNovember 23, 2013
Love this place! Beer selection is great. Food is amazing- fries with their bacon BBQ sauce. I wish I could buy it and bring it home. Burgers are delicious. Salad too! Will definitely be back.

The pulled pork was juicy, the sauce selection (BACON BBQ?!) was great, but the real key to this sandwich was the buttered, toasted bun, which provided great crunch and flavor.
Kathryn VanderWykJune 22, 2015
We had brisket, mussels, pork rinds, grits, collard greens, beans -- everything was sooo good. Awesome local craft beer selection, and the house brews are excellent.

Excellent service! On a menu dominated by delicious pork, don't overlook the grass fed beef burger on a buttery, lightly toasted bun. Also, I love the half pints - great for variety (or moderation).

Fantastic beers on tap. Great ones in a bottle too. Great atmosphere. The food is an A+. This is the type of place where the value of swine shines. Pigs the world over should be proud to end up here.
Jessica WJuly 21, 2013
so many beers, so little time! they have a wide variety of hill farmstead, lawsons, zero gravity etc. and the food is great too!
James CAugust 14, 2016
The beer was great and the pork rinds were hot and the rub was outstanding. The GLT and bacon salad were both outstanding good experience.
Cansas MulliganOctober 2, 2015
Mac and cheese with pork is fabulous. Top it with their house made hot sauce and eat with a side of pickled veggies for an amazing flavor explosion!
Greg GNovember 7, 2015
Amazing beers on tap and fantastic food. I don't think you can go wrong with anything. Brisket sandwich with duckfat fries was fantastic.
Avery JenkinsAugust 24, 2012
Great Beers on Tap with lots of Vermont's Finest Brews!! I didn't eat here but I'm sure that the Food is Delicious but it seemed a little pricey!! I recommend the nearby "Reservoir" if you hungry...

Do this math: Alchemist Heady Topper beer + Brisket sandwich + Duck Fat Fries. #blessed
Scott BerkaAugust 10, 2014
Got the brisket with baked breaks and brussel sprouts. Brisket was fatty, BBQ sauce was great, as we're the sides. I would get the burger instead if I had a do-over
The TravelerAugust 21, 2015
Very $$$ but food was great! The beer selection was outstanding. Our waitress was excellent too. Chicken & Biscuits with hush puppies can't go wrong.
Ted BissellSeptember 1, 2013
One of only two places in VT (besides the brewery itself) that has Heady Topper on tap. They also offer half-pours of all of their draft beers.
Ashley GammieAugust 29, 2014
Wow. Worth the drive from Montpelier. The Kale salad was incredibly fresh and the BBQ Brisket was perfection. I got it as a side to my salad.

One of my favorite food (and beer) destinations in all of New England. Skip dinner and order all the appetizers.
Brittany O'GradySeptember 21, 2012
Great food, even better beer. The bread pudding is amazing!! Best I ever had. Sweet potatoes amazing, especially with their pickled vinegar dressing. Awesome lunch.

Go early, sit at the bar and dream of the thirty cocktails you'd like to order and order duck fat fries instead because there's no "legal limit" for those.

This place is delicious. Great service from john. Collard greens were heavenly. Great kids' meals too.
Nate BeattyApril 25, 2015
The wings are great topped with the homemade hot sauce. Get BBQ anything and a pint of Hill Farmstead. Leave hoppy... Er... Happy
EllySeptember 4, 2017
The burgers. Dear god. So good. Note that it's a loud, busy spot.

Don't be fooled by the 9+ Foursquare rating—this is Yankee BBQ.

Service is friendly and the food is delicious. Don't overlook the bottle list, it's a well curated trip around the world.
Kyle FidalgoAugust 19, 2014
Literally everything. Phenomenal beer list, pulled pork sandwich is top notch, pickled vegetables are awesome.
Christina KOctober 30, 2022
everything is delicious! the hush puppies and pulled pork esp
Beth EisenbergSeptember 22, 2015
What's good here? Everything. World class craft beers and a creative, delicious menu.
Sandro PuglieseJuly 31, 2021
Beer and food were both excellent. Pulled pork, hush puppies, fries, tacos
AmateurConciergeMay 20, 2018
The house burger is super solid. Skip the poutine....lil too meaty n soggy for me 😬
Jonathan YuDecember 14, 2017
Must stop if in Waterbury. Chicken wings were fantastic and many in house brews.
Joe ReynoldsAugust 21, 2014
Food is pretty good... the draught list is the reason for coming. Heady Topper, Hill Farmstead, Lawsons and more almost always on draught.
Amy Johnson CookSeptember 6, 2015
Love the mushroom sandwich. So.. Good. They also have Stumptown cold brew stubbies!
Drew MMarch 9, 2019
Lunch menu only includes sandwiches, burgers, & salads. No longer serves brussel sprouts. Honestly sandwiches are too small and not a great deal for $12. Same story with the $5 sides.
Donovan MaguiganSeptember 20, 2015
It was the best chili dog that I have ever had, as advertised.

Chicken and Biscuits - not bad if you're in the mood. I'd request more honey next time.
Amy Johnson CookOctober 19, 2016
Stop out front for the BBQ or at the cannery in the back for tacos but enjoy the beer either way.
arbkvDecember 27, 2013
Great food, tons of beers on tap, super fast and friendly service. Recommended.
Rich HauckJuly 11, 2014
One of the most flavorful beef briskets, albeit one of the smallest I've ever had.
Erica FMay 4, 2015
Potato salad was delicious. Brisket and chopped BBQ were really good.
Rose MeadeJune 30, 2013
Crazy but try the pork rinds. Amazing, light, crunchy. It's a leap of faith but do it.
MartaDecember 3, 2013
Lots of yummy drinks available as well as beers. Food is great too!
RourkeJuly 13, 2018
Good beer. Fun atmosphere.
Matt RosenSeptember 7, 2020
Everything was amazing, the brisket sandwich was special.
Nick HolroydAugust 13, 2017
That house burger
Mathew PaisnerJanuary 18, 2014
Get the Mac & cheese and add some of there amazing bbq sauce or hot sauce!
Jim HermanJuly 6, 2013
Chicken biscuit, Hill Farmstead/Lawson's/Heady Topper. What more could you need in this world??
MMAugust 12, 2012
Ask for The Alchemist Heddy Topper. Best beers ever. Food great too. Try the sweet potato fries!!
