Restaurants near Brandon Swamp Wildlife Management Area

Jessica' s never ever disappoints. Best food and service in the area. Outstanding hospitality, the menu is incredible, servers are true pros and knowledgeable. Always a memorable experience.

My girlfriend and I dined on a rainy Wednesday evening, the restaurant was just about empty thus the only reason for the 4-star rating on ambiance. It was sort of nice to have the place to our own!! Service was excellent, (thanks Angela), and the food was fantastic. App, two drinks, two dinners and tip under $120. Definitely would dine here again, especially next time we are doing something at the Paramount, which is just around the block. Well decorated, awesome background music for dinner. Could not have been happier as a first-time customer. We will be bcak!

Stopped for lunch before a game at Middlebury. Food was delicious! Friendly service staff!

We’ve had some inconsistent experiences at the River. Really enjoyed it when they first opened, awesome chicken wings app (large sized pieces), good clean food. Seemed like it went downhill after Covid, trouble finding good/experienced staff, food was disappointing. Our food was much better this time, burgers cooked as ordered, fries weren’t greasy/soggy, and our server seemed knowledgeable. Gripes: the salmon dish is underwhelming for the price, the rice that came with it was bland. Also the desserts were mediocre, cheesecake and mousse layer cake were cold and the cheesecake didn’t seem homemade. Overall, though, better than previous recent visits, and hopefully things are on the upswing!

We always love our visits to the taproom! Delicious food, great drinks and friendly service!
