What Are Some Of The Most Historic Restaurants In Vermont?

  • Fire & Ice has been going strong in the town of Middlebury for five decades now, and this charming small-town family-run restaurant has gained quite the fanbase both for its food and its unique decor. The whole place looks more like a quirky old-time watering hole than a modern restaurant, with over 1,000 vintage photos on the wall. The best food includes steak dinners, lobster rolls, and some of the state's best seafood. Make sure to stop by Big Mouse's Pub for a drink!
  • The Dorset Inn, located in the town of Dorset, opened its doors as a working inn way back in 1796 and still serves that purpose today. But now, most people are visiting for food rather than lodging, and the Dorset Inn's in-house restaurant serves up amazing seasonal dishes in a stately and historic environment. We recommend the salmon if it's on the menu, and think this might be the best restaurant in Vermont for date nights.
  • Ye Olde Tavern in Manchester lives up to its name - it was built way back in 1790, a year before Vermont even became a state! Today, the restaurant doubles as a history lesson and a fantastic place to eat. The historic decor is a great complement to a meal full of hearty comfort food faves such as pot roast and chicken pot pie. The restaurant also has a massive wine selection to pair perfectly with your meal.
