Restaurants near Waitsfield Village Historic District

VERY high quality food at this lovely, cozy-feeling cafe out in the country. Everything was beautifully flavorful, fresh, perfectly seasoned. Our group split the roasted oysters appetizer, and the house-made pastrami appetizer, both of which were amazing. My companions both ordered pasta dishes. I tried to order the special pasta (squash bucatini) but it was sold out. The shrimp and grits I pivoted to were amazing, though, so no regrets! One thing I was a little surprised by was the number of menu items that were sold out by the time we ordered. We had a 6:00 p.m. reservation, so I wouldn't have expected so many things to sell out so early in the evening. That said, the restaurant was packed, with parties who had gotten there even earlier than us, so I gather the dinner hour skews a bit early in rural Vermont. Ambiance and service were lovely. Prices were in line with what I'd expect at a higher end, farm-to-table venue. I would definitely dine here again!

We've eaten here a couple of times and found the food and drink quality very good! The menu is fairly diverse, with comfort/pub food, but also some very good vegetarian options, which I appreciate. I had a delicious roasted veggie sandwich and my husband had a very hearty grain bowl. Our son said his grilled cheese was really good, as was the side of butternut squash soup. Service was friendly and efficient. Another standout: they offer some really good mocktails! I had one that included beet juice and ginger beer, and it was delicious (and pretty!)

First class all the way -great food and top notch hospitality

Overall a very good dinner. Food was delicious. We were the first customers to try a new fall squash dish and it did not disappoint. A truly delicious meal!! Would definitely recommend Plate as a go to Stowe restaurant.

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!
