The Grafton Inn is a proud supporter of Vermont’s pioneering farm-to-table philosophy. Our historic inn and two restaurants in southern Vermont offer on-site dining year-round and feature locally-sourced ingredients prepared by food-loving professionals to create timeless, hearty dishes that will please any palate.

The Phelps Barn, originally a carriage house for guests' horses, provides a unique and rustic VT dining experience. Even the hayloft has been repurposed and renovated, providing an elevated seating area as well as our 8-tap bar. It is a fast pace restaurant with live music usually scheduled on the weekends.

If you are looking for a quieter space to have dinner or celebrate a special occasion, we would recommend our 1801 Tavern located inside the Main Inn. This historic space provides a cozy and elevated dining atmosphere. Within the 1801 Tavern you’ll find our recently renovated Pine Room Bar with a working fireplace.

    Tonight was their apps and taps night which consists of 4 or 5 different appetizers and a drink for $16. Chicken wings with cider bbq sauce was great. Caesar salad was very big, fresh, well made and delicious. Our server, Hannah was very sweet, remembered us from breakfast and engaged us in conversation, took care of all our needs. Meghan at the bar was also very nice and pleasant. We would highly recommend going to the Phelps barn for dinner and drinks. So much so we are going back tomorrow for burger and brew night.

    Our server Fallon was exceptional. We came in with 6 hungry kids and she was patient and went above and beyond to ensure all 12 of us had a great time!

    It was our first time here and we will definitely be back! We dined upstairs in the Phelps Barn - it is such a charming, rustic space - loved the atmosphere. The staff was friendly and welcoming, food was delicious. There was live music the night we dined - even though it is not an overly large space, the music wasn't overwhelming - was a nice added plus.
