Restaurants near Bread Loaf Mountain

We just had the most magical, cozy fireside dinner at Starry Night. The service was warm and attuned, and the food was comforting, nourishing, and absolutely delicious. A+++

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.

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 appreciate our local restaurateurs and businesses in general, but when they excel it truly brings our experience to a brand new level. Location is a bit trippy, but its something you can remember, along with the fabulous food!
