The Jericho Café & Tavern

The Best Restaurants in Northern Vermont | Eater Montreal

"This local favorite situated in the hills of rural Jericho draws in neighbors with its New England comfort food like warm Vermont goat cheese and kale salads, Yankee pot roast, and New England-style baked haddock. Its off-the-beaten-path locale near Mount Mansfield makes it tourist-worthy as well, as it’s likely the best nearby place to grab a drink after a long hike up Vermont’s highest peak. Try one of many local beers on tap or a craft cocktail like Smuggler’s Notch gin Ciderhouse punch. The food might be casual but chef Evan Leavy, who previously helmed the kitchen at Burlington’s Ice House restaurant, is serious in his approach, operating the restaurant’s in-house smokehouse and dishing up one of the most popular brunches around." - Heather Platt
