Nine Restaurants and Bars in Mad River Valley, Vermont | Eater Montreal

"More of a store than a place to dine, Mad River Distillers’ Taste Place has lined its shelves with many of the finest food products from around the state. Its walk-in refrigerator is a museum of local Vermont beer, cider, and wine. The cheesemongers are as friendly, informed, and helpful as you would expect a Vermont cheesemonger to be. Ask for a taste of cheese like Shelburne Farms Cheddar or Von Trapp Farmstead’s Oma, all from the utters of local cows. They invite visitors to relax fireside with a “European ploughman’s” lunch of cheese, charcuterie, and bread, a pint of local Tin Hat hard cider or a French-pressed pot of locally-roasted Awake coffee." - Heather Platt
