Casey's Caboose

Waited over 20 minutes to be seated. After 10 minutes of waiting, a man told us they had plenty of tables, but he had to find staff to seat us. Pesto primavera pasta had no flavor at all. Some acid would have helped immensely, but the waitress never brought lemon wedges after asking for them. French onion soup was too salty. Very noisy restaurant!

We got onion rings for an appetizer. Light, crispy batter..and the onion did not come out when bitten through. This is very important! The fish and chips were great. My wife's burger was cooked perfect. Generous portions! The bartender is as advertized; very cordial. The waitress was great.

I came here my second day in Vermont and was excited since it was highly recommended. I ordered an all American burger with a little pink and it was practically raw! I also ordered the Mac and cheese with pulled pork and it was not a good combination at all. The pulled pork has a very strong flavor to it and does not pair well with the Mac and cheese but alone the Mac was delicious!

We go to Caboose every time we come to Killington because we love their food and atmosphere and people working there. Last night we sat at the bar and ordered onion soup, French dip and burger and couple of drinks. End everything was delicious! Also had a nice chat with bartender. Very pleasant evening :)

Went on a relatively quiet night after the Spartan race in the off season. Free wings from 4-5! The food was delicious and servers were great. Definitely will go again!

dan was awesome behind the bar, lots of local brews available, i liked the switchback. free wings from 4-5 was great too

We had a great Thanksgiving night dinner here. Reserved the special caboose room on the second floor and it was an absolute hit with the kids. Food were delicious with great potion. Kids had lobsters mac n cheese and steak. My salmon dinner was great and the french dip sandwich was nice as well. For dessert we had mud pie and pumpkin pie, both excellent!

Amazing food! Venison burger was great with veggie slaw. Clam chowder was good! Great atmosphere to grab a drink, lots of gin options. Really cute place. Friendly staff.. just a bit expensive.. prime rib was huge though and was good.

Had the pretzel and French onion soup appetizers. The pretzel was amazing! Nice selection of on tap beers. A little pricey. Great ambiance as a train caboose.

Casey's is back on our list of preferred restaurants at Killington. It happened when the new owners took over in 2024 (I think it was). Staff is very friendly and work hard to please. Especially the bartender, Pam. She goes nonstop and can still chat while making cocktails or pulling draft beer. We enjoy sitting at the bar if we luck out finding a seat. We chat with other patrons and throw quarters at "Goofy" to make the train go. Our last meal was ok. My partner had a chicken (not blackened) Caesar salad and really enjoyed it. On the other hand, I tried the chicken stir fry which was not so good. It was super salty, too much sauce, not enough chicken, and not enough rice. We will return for sure.

Dropped by after a visit to Killington. This would be a good place to stop by if you have done some skiing and need a filing meal and a drink. The place is a little dark inside but it's got plenty of space. For the food, it was ok. I ordered the fish and it was a little tough and could have used a little more spice. My husband liked his pasta. He did remove the mussels that come with it so can't comment on those. Service was quick so that was apperciated.

The service was prompt! I love a good baked pretzel appetizer and they did not disappoint. The salads were fresh and crisp. I had grilled chicken on mine with balsamic vinaigrette. We split the macaroni and cheese and it was tasty. We ate in the actual caboose and it was fun to do. The restaurant continued to get louder due to the many patrons who came in for dinner. I would definitely come back.

Standard, consistent, comfort food at Casey's Caboose. The servers were outstanding. We were there on the Saturday night of a holiday weekend and our server was also the hostess and managing the waitlist and at least two tables - and she still managed to answer our questions, provide great service, and be super friendly. Standard apres ski food, nothing too special but warm and welcoming with a reasonable wait.

Sat at the bar. Nice, friendly atmosphere. Chopped salad very good; not overly dressed. But ribs on BBQ trio were inedible; chewy to the point of being unable to bite or cut. Other items on trio were good.

Definitely a cool set up. The place resembles an old train, but the food itself definitely isn't worth it. The menu has changed drastically in the past few years and it's much smaller than it used to be. Small selection of beers on tap. If you need a place to drink I say go for it, but I would skip it for food.

We ordered the French onion soup and wings. Both were super tasty. The service was good. Our server was a sweet as she could be. The restaurant was fairly quiet as it was on a Sunday, This place in my opinion is better to try than The Foundry. While it's a great venue, the food isn't on par with the pricing.

Great place to meet locals and the free wings offered between 4-5 were excellent. Our bartender was great and gave us a lot of info about the area

Great post ski atmosphere, convenient location, great service. Popular among locals.

Family favorite whenever we ski Killington. Great food at a reasonable price and HUGE portions. All of the meals we've had are top notch. The ribs are amazing and the wings are addictive. Salads, burgers, pasta dishes are all worth the money. Great service and the Vermont local feel you come to K-Town for. Highly recommend especially if you have kids as they will love all the Trains and the Caboose that is the framework of the restaurant.

Place was packed former a Wednesday. The poor bartender was covering for waitresses also . Food and bartender were very good . Needs more help .

I've always liked this place but I really believe it has gotten better over the last few years. Last night we were greeted by staff very friendly served right away. We had the Bavarian pretzel appetizers and nachos. We love them my 10-year-old grandson of course loves the train that goes around the bar. We had a margarita from the bar, which was excellent for the main courses. One of us had the filet mignon cooked, medium perfect excellent cut of meat as well as the strip steaks grandson had a huge portion of mac & cheese. We even had dessert, carrot cake, phenomenal, and a nice piece of tiramisu And a root beer float. Our server was really nice and attentive. We always come here when we're up skiing. We'll be back again.

I've eaten there before and enjoyed it. But tonight's bone-in rib-eye missed the mark. The temperature and seasoning were fine but it was rather tough for that cut. Even with a serrated knife, cutting it was a struggle. I also ordered a Manhattan and the server brought out an Old Fashioned, insisting it was a Manhattan. I like them both and drank it instead, but not what I ordered. I'll give them another chance next time I'm in the area.

Well the service was good, However at the end of my lunch my bill had a charge that said Non Adjustment charge 1.75 SMH why not tell the customer's it's a cash only business. #2 I ask b4 getting my meals if French Fries come with the burger which I was told yes by the waitress . However still was charged for fries & the meals was okay nothing outta this World ... Anyways at the end I paid 50$ for 2 burgers & fries alit to pricey I would say!!!

We waited outside at 1:50pm for the the restaurant to open at 2pm Seated by our server with a smile and asked us right away if she could get us water. Within 10 minutes of being seated the place was packed She came back took our drink order and asked if any apps. We said we're ready to order a little bit of everything. From the Lobster Roll to the French onion soup everything was great. Great craft beer selection as well. You felt like you were definitely in Ski country with all the decor and arrived by train

We met up some local friends here the other night, and when you walk inside, you immediately feel enveloped into a warm embrace from the freezing cold. It's so sweet and charmingly cozy. There's a solid beer menu and some cocktails (the "special" G&T is just a regular one with some whole spices thrown in for good effect). We skipped apps and just got mains of French onion soup and the lamb burger. Honestly, both were pretty good. The broth on the soup was rich but not heavy and the "cheese lid" was the ideal balance of oozy and crusty. The lamb burger was Greek-themed and while it was nothing special, there was a good amount of meat and we liked the fries. Honestly, the only reason that we're giving this place three stars instead of four is because of the "award-winning" mac-n-cheese. We got it for our daughter and it was beyond bland (zero salt or anything) and it was cold. When we mentioned this to the waitress, she brought another one out and it was STILL cold. That's INSANE. Like, we weren't expecting *actual* award-winning mac-n-cheese, but we were expecting something better than a Kraft box, and in this situation, we would have preferred the latter that's how bad it was. "Award-winning" LOL! (They did end up comp-ing it.) We had a very sweet woman as our server, who was beyond patient and helpful with our large kid-filled party, but it also seemed like they were understaffed because we couldn't find her a few times when we needed her. Listen, if you steer clear of the mac-n-cheese, you could have a very pleasant experience here on a cold day.

Great service. Grungy pub atmosphere. Food out of 3 orders the Ahi Tuna was very good, fresh and done/served nicely. I had the stuffed haddock. Wondered how they were going to stuff it, so to speak, and it was basically a seafood melange on top with what seemed to be panko on top of that. My son got a heaping servings of linguine and a nice sized piece of Chicken Parm. It was just ok. Sauce was more chunky tomatoes versus a "gravy" or "sauce". They also don't pound the chicken flatter than you handle a regular breast so there were overdone pieces on the thin end and juicier on the thicker side. We read this was "the best food in VT...". While the helpings were good and service good I'd say it was more of an Applebees or Olive Garden caliber. Also both myself and my wife had a tremendous thirst about an hour later... not accusing but suggesting there may be some MSG flying around that kitchen. Would I go back... yes if there wasn't any other choice, but there is a lot on that Killington Road with multiple choices.

Best food on the mountain. Don't miss out on the Brussels Sprouts!! Ate at the bar and my glass was always full. Can't wait to go back.

Food was great service quick but didn't didn't rush you to order. The interior patina is cool and reminds me an old ski chalet . The place can get busy during peak business hours.And beer menu is quite adequate IPA's .Fish and Chips

We were turned down at Garlic, or rather told we would need to wait more than 30 mins to be seated. No thanks! We came here purely by coincidence and had a great meal. For expectations management: This is what it promises - really good bar food - but higher quality than what one would have at a regular bar. We had freshly fried calamari with peppers and a homemade ketchup type dipping sauce, a simple mixed salad with blue cheese sauce (also homemade I suspect), excellent fish and chips with crispy fries, plus a very nice homemade veggie burger (with black beans in it), jalapeños and guacamole as an extra touch. The menu looked good, also the pasta dishes. We were greeted but a friendly bartender and sat outside. The bar looked cosy - it is not a fancy place - these are the Green Mountains, people, so leave your entitled attitude at home and just enjoy the bar classics and be thankful that you don't have to wait in line at Garlic!

Great food! Bartender Lexie was fantastic! It's our first time visiting Killington and this was on our to do list, and it exceeded our expectations! We will be back!

When I traveled to Killington I went to this restaurant several times. The food was delicious. The staff was hilarious. I would definitely eat at this location again when I'm in the area.

A nice family friendly restaurant tucked into the hills of Green Mountain. We had very good clam chowder and a calamari appetizer which we enjoyed after a long days drive. Certainly recommend to stop in and check them out! Stu and T.

As soon as we walked in, I knew it was going to be great. Christmas lights hanging everywhere, staff dressed in gorgeous Christmas sweaters and Mariah Carey's song playing. We sat at the bar. We were greeted by Emily. Emily is amazing. She was pouring drinks, taking orders and answering phones. She did it all with a smile. I was most impressed with her knowledge of making gorgeous cocktails. She's legit. We only ordered appetizers. The wings were great. I asked for a side of the blueberry bourbon bbq sauce. It was unique! All the food coming out looked amazing. Those burgers were no joke! All I want for Christmas and everyday is Casey's.

Great to see Casey's Caboose open again under new ownership. The new owners cleaned up the place nicely and brightened up the lighting in some of the dimmer lit spaces like the hall and restroom area. The bar area was widened a bit and a couple high top tables were added, this is a nice update as it provides much needed space in the bar. The train in the bar area is operational and Goofy still guards the on switch. Casey's was my go to spot for as long as I can remember for happy hour after a day on the slopes, after several years of a closed Caboose it only took me 2 quarters to get Goofy to fire up the train :) Built around an 1876 railroad caboose and a 1910 railroad snowplow, Casey's Caboose was named after Jonathan Luther "John" "Casey" Jones the American railroad engineer who died in April 1900 saving the passengers on his train. His mother, Mrs Jones is said to have lived near Killington in her youth. Casey's Caboose has a nice selection of beers on tap as well as bottled and canned beers, red and white wine, and a nice selection of cocktails are also available. Looking for something different, try a Casey's Plowcar Smash during your visit, it is a specialty cocktail with Bacardi rum, tropical juice, cream of coconut and 151 rum. If you are a Gin drinker, the new Casey's Caboose has a large selection of gin, check the board for details on their Gin specials. The new and improved Casey's has an outstanding menu, the food is freshly made and beautifully presented. They offer a wide range of items, from comfort foods with several mac 'n cheese options, a nice assortment of gourmet burgers to lighter fare if you are looking for something smaller. We ordered off of the Thanksgiving Eve special menu and everything was delicious. Don't skip dessert, the executive chef has a background as a pastry chef. The team working the new and improved Casey's is friendly and customer focused, hats off to General Manager John MacHardy, bartender Jimmy and our waiter Duffy.

Food was good. My daughter had this monster sized burger with bacon and mac and cheese. Loved it. Cute place. Would definitely recommend.

After waiting 1.5 hours in line with no hostess at the door we finally got seated. Our server barely checked on us during the time we were seated. My Margarita tasted like tequila and ginger beer and nothing like a margarita The kitchen forgot the cheese on our burger and when we told another staff member they brought it back with a slice of unmelted cheese just thrown on top. Ambiance was cute but this place is in desperate need of better management.

stopped in 1/9/24 after snowboarding all day. a few groups were walking in as we did - so our food took a little longer for the entrees to come out (which was fine cause our apps came out quick) started with the clam chowder and a house salad with balsamic dressing. 10/10 for each. dinner was a burger, side of fries and mac and cheese. the burger was awesome. great bread used for the bun. the mac and cheese was very creamy but had a smidge of aint of flour in the sauce. i still ate it all. the bartender heather was super nice. she was apologetic the entrees took a while. she explained how their back of house was short staffed and the larger parties sat at the same time took up their attention. nice bathrooms. very clean

Service was excellent! Mac & Cheese was super cheesy! I recommend this place! The Mac & Cheese was the best I have had in a long time!

We returned to Killington & I had to come back to grab their Reuben. It is still as good as my first experience. My hubby got the pan seared Scallops. It was amazing and we wish we had more of the lobster risotto. It would melt into our mouths. The worst critics were my kids who got the burgers. My oldest got the burger special. He said it wasn't the best burger he ever had. The younger one got the All American. It was not memorable & would not be a repeat for him. Maybe we should leave them at home next time.

Went 9/5/2021 Great atmosphere definitely do a reservation but we ate a the bar- the bartender was lovely and knowledgeable. Had my first taste of Gin- The purple Haze Great selections

We came here for dinner tonight, in town for a friends wedding in Killington this weekend. We love trains so it was definitely a must-see for these transit nerds We were seated at a unique upstairs nook, and our server Noah was wonderful and attentive to us, and friendly and welcoming. We're excited to come back again!

I will not recommend this place to anyone idk how they got this many stars. Save your money for another place. Reasons for one star: 1. Ridiculously overpriced 2. Service was slow 3. Food had no flavor 4. Didn't get any refills This place was extremely disappointing. It's really sad when the nachos were the best thing on the menu. If you want to try other foods, have it it but DO NOT GET THE BURGERS. Nachos (4/5) they weren't the best nachos I've ever had but it was pretty decent. I guess I didn't enjoy it because of the olives but it had more flavor than anything else. Burgers (1/5) this was probably the worst burger I've ever had. The patty did not have any flavor. NO FLAVOR AT ALL. I had to add a little salt to my burger. Then I poured some A1 sauce on it. It was kinda dry but not super dry. Onion rings (2/5) these werent bad but a few of my rings were just batter and no onion.

OMG, I died and went to heaven. The Broiled Vermont Maple Scallops were biblical. Scallops wrapped in delicious bacon with the perfect amount of syrup. I praised the lord! For my main meal, Casey's Naked Elk Burger was nothing short of a Holy Mother Mary moment! Perfectly cooked and seasoned, served with lettuce, tomato, onions and pickles. Can you hear the angels sing...I can!!

We came here twice for dinner while staying at the nearby Killington resort. It was the only restaurant in the area we could find that takes reservations (Resy) and for some reason it was not as crowded as the others nearby though we thought the food and service was very good. They are known for their burgers and mac and cheese. Our small group had burgers, salads and prime rib, and all were very good--nothing fancy but hearty and satisfying. Service was good and the food came out promptly, which is what you want after a long day of mountain biking. We even got to sit upstairs in the caboose the second night and it was fun to see how expertly the server handled the high tables.

After a fun week in Killington, we couldn't decide where to eat. Had to return rental skis close to Casey's so we decided to try it! Seated quickly. Waitress was great. Food arrived promptly. My burger had good flavor, but was a bit dry/overcooked, and the bun seemed a bit stale. Baked potato had weird flavor, would not order that again. Son loved his Lobster Mac, portion was ginormous. Husband said his turkey burger was just okay. A bit pricey, but that seems on par for Killington.

Nicely setup restaurant with some train cars, making for a unique atmosphere. The service was good and quick. Food was mediocre, will not be going back.

Ordered from here during a last minute trip to Killington. We had our dog with us so dining in was a lot harder especially since patios were closed still. After a big day we were really craving comfort food and found it in the lobster mac, a big juicy burger and apple cobbler. We also were able to use the Yelp $10 promotion. Everything exceeded expectations for takeout and we got to have lobster mac leftovers for breakfast.

Food was very good overall. Service was lacking and we were charged an almost 10% surcharge for not using cash. Would never go back and use a credit card again...but we will go back because the food was that good.

I was so happy this place was open as I was starving!! I had the bacon wrapped scallops appetizer, which was okay. I also had the prime rib, so did C, it was over cooked :(. Flavor was all right. Baked potatoes were on point! It was served with some zucchini (meh) and some decorative lettuce. Not a lot of restaurants were open.

It's alright. Food is subpar, but service is as good as it can be. Seen a downwards spiral the past year or so...

Great food and excellent service! There was an excellent selection of all types of food and cocktails. I heard from various people how good the drinks were! Our server was Kayla and she was very helpful and attentive!

Service took very long Food was tasteless and ice cold Waiter was nice though Overall never coming back

Casey's Caboose is back and under new ownership! Of the many spots on the Killington access road, Casey's always had that cozy, lived-in feel and it's nice to see the new owners left all the original charm while adding in some other tasteful additions (colored LED lights for ambiance, vintage train memorabilia, etc.). Above all else though, the food we ordered was spot on! They had no problem with me calling in a take-out order (many places on the access road only do dine-in). We ordered two burgers - a Bayley Blue (topped with blue cheese, caramelized onion, bacon jam, and smoked tomato aioi), and the "Every Day's Thanksgiving" (with ground turkey, goat cheese, and sriracha aioli). The two of us also shared a very generous side of mac & cheese, topped with nicely seasoned breadcrumbs. Our total came to just about $40, and they include fries with the burgers...a nice touch (take note, Burgrs On The Rocs!) Whether for apres ski or a casual dinner, Casey's Caboose is a good time, and I'm glad they're back in business!

This place was fun and casual and perfect for the family or just to drink a couple of beers after being in the cold all day. The food was great, but the people and vibe are even better. Also the train inside the restaurant was so fun! My inner child loved it.

Overpriced shit, 45 dollars for a 12 ounce...it was bland as hang...I've had a better steak at Texas Roadhouse that was about half the price. Waiter was pretty rude, did not check up on us at all. It was a pretty cool little place tho...nice and cozy

To be honest the waiter had a attitude Food was very cold and taste was disgusting My so called pasta came as spicy kids macaroni They think after every bad meal they could just take off some money and think that we will forgive them

Great place with great food and great service! It's not my first time at Casey's Caboose but I just want to say, it's always good! Nice and friendly staff, fresh and delicious food w
