Zenbarn

We were here for a private work related event not for entertainment. The food they served us was delicious. Some of us ended up having to sit in small patio chairs that weren’t very comfortable for 6 hrs but all in all glad we chose this venue. I was told it’s a fun place with good music, if back in the area for personal reasons I’d give it a try.

First off shout out to Mustard Tiger , the resteraunt in the space , for some of the best food around ! The bartenders are all amazing especially Moya Every show I've been to there has been nothing short of mind blowing , their sound system is amazing and the acoustics through the entire space are just wonderful. I especially love their kareoke Sundays, always a great time!

Fun place for live music, with friendly and accommodating staff. Love the outdoor deck. Hope to try the new food vendor soon

We cannot say enough good things about the Zen Barn! We got married here in July 2023 and had an amazing, fun, and smooth wedding weekend. We rented out the Air BnB on the top two floors of the barn for the weekend and it worked out perfectly for our bridal party to stay in and for getting ready before the ceremony. Communicating with their events manager Katie and the owner Ari leading up to the wedding was easy and they were super accommodating. We had questionable weather for the ceremony/cocktail hour portion of our wedding and all of the staff at Zen Barn were so flexible and supportive with us deciding whether we needed to do our ceremony inside or out. We ended up using their beautiful indoor ceremony space due to rain and it was amazing! Our guests loved the BBQ buffet (great gluten free and veg options too!!) and enjoyed the cocktails and amazing local beer options. Everyone had so much fun with the Zen Barn staff - they are the perfect balance of fun/laidback and professional - making you feel at ease throughout the day. Our go-to guy for our wedding day, Travis, went above and beyond to help our day run smoothly and was so fun to work with. The Zen Barn lets you truly customize how you want your wedding to be and we are so happy we had our wedding here. We cannot wait to come back for music and anniversary celebrations. Thank you to everyone at the Zen Barn for all of your hard work!!!!

We had our wedding at Zenbarn in June and everything was perfect! You cannot beat the view from the outdoor ceremony location! Every single member of their staff was great to work with and really made the night magical. From planning it all with Kaite to dancing and talking to Travis, it was all perfect. We are still getting compliments about how magical and well put together our wedding was and we owe a lot of that to Zenbarn.

The food and drinks here are out of this world, the service was great and the servers made us feel at home. I would highly recommend the maple bacon burger and the grilled mushrooms with grits!!! Also the gin and chronic drink was very well made but I think our favorite part was bamboo straw, loved the little touches!! We will definitely be back in the future

Love this place! Good food, great service and live music. Rustic barn ambiance.

Our wedding at Zenbarn was like a fairytale! It’s such an amazing venue with indoor and outdoor spaces that are exactly what you want for a Vermont wedding. The apartments upstairs were perfect for getting ready and a crash pad for friends and family after partying all night. We loved every minute!

A friend and I came in mid-week for an event and decided to get drinks and dinner beforehand. We split an order of roasted Brussel sprouts with chèvre: they were excellent. I had the Kimchi Reuben, as I'd missed ordering a Reuben for St Pat's and had been in the mood. This was hands down one of the best reubens I have had in a long time. I tried their N/A CBD cocktail with mango-it was quite good and a Constant Sorrow made with putney ginger liqueur, bourbon, blackberry shrub, trinity bitters-it was hard not to order a few of these. It was excellent. She got the BBQ Seitan and took most of it home as it was a large plate. She loved their version of a Sidecar. I'd def come here again.

What a cool place! This restaurant is representative of all the best things about VT. Free-spirited, fun, funky, beautiful. Really creative and delicious cocktails with many non-alcoholic options available. Everything we had to eat was different, incredible and locally sourced. We had initially planned to see a local funk band, that was changed to some members of Wu-Tang, and then we ended up with a local blues / rock band! But the crowd and staff made our New Year's Eve a memorable one in all the best ways. We will definitely be back.

Thankful for this place. Always good music, good food, good vibes. They also have CBD drinks/etc at the bar.

This place is great! So much room for social distancing out back. There is a good variety of local beer on tap including a few from hill farmstead. The food is flavorful but still feels healthy. The soba noodles felt even a little tooo healthy for me, ha! But I came a few weeks ago and had maybe the best dumplings of my life so I definitely trust the kitchen! Staff is very friendly and good at keeps lines to a minimum so everything feels safe and clean. We'll definitely be back again especially as the weather cools down.

Loved my time here! They take reservations and we paid $10pp for table and live music. Worth it. They have an outdoor space that isn't anything fancy but very cool! They provided heaters and most tables were covered. You order at the counter and they bring your food to you. Masks were enforced unless you were at your table. The cocktails were delicious and the Barn burger was YUMMY! Very chill spot to sit back, sip some drinks and take in some live music. Cool menu that seems to change regularly. Would definitely stop by again!

Awesome atmosphere, great food! If you can- get the brisket! Out of everything we had, that was the best! Cool place to hang out afterwards. We came on a busy Saturday and had dinner in the corner with a cool waiter. He gave great suggestions and one was the CBD drink, another was to stick around for the show and play some shuffle board. We were up visiting from NYC and this was our favorite spot. Skip the Pig... stay with Zen barn.

This is a really fun and quirky place. Ultimate casual Vermont vibe, some nice cocktails and beers, and CBD laced nonalcoholic drinks too. There are a few vegan entrées, plus burgers and enough menu selection to satisfy most diners. There is also a stage for live music, and everyone seemed to be having a good time.

Incredibly kind management and staff, fantastic drinks, delicious menu, and the best dance floor outside of Burlington! New Year's Eve was an absolute blast! The chef also kindly worked with my food allergy. Made it a night to remember and I can't wait to go back!

I had the pleasure of coming here during their lunar new year specials day. The menu looked neat and matched Chinese new year color of red for good luck. Upon entrance the host is friendly and personable. He was very accommodating. Started with egg drop soup and dumplings. I loved the dumplings. They tasted just like chinatown dumplings. I ordered 2 of their Chinese new year special menu. They were delicious.

We had the hamburger and kimchi Ruben. Both were very tasty. You can tell they make it from scratch. The beets were good as well. The only flaw was the kimchi is the Ruben, didn't have much taste. A great restaurant overall.

Great atmosphere, delicious food and a staff that clearly wants to please. You can't beat that. We stopped in with 3 little kids whom they accommodated easily. We enjoyed a live band. I didn't want to leave. I got the ramen and my husband got the black bean burger. The kids got Mac and cheese which came with a homemade chocolate chip cookie and a glass o

Thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant/bar. The food was fresh and the place had a farm to table vibe. Then bar was well stocked and barman friendly. Service was efficient and the environment welcoming. I loved all of the art and the decor. I tried the housemade veggie burger (black bean) with fries. The housemade dijon was great and the burger well dressed with avocado and fried onion. It didnt feel heavy but was filling. The bread was warm which I appreciated and the fries were tasty! If I'm in the area again I would definitely go back.

Made a reservation which got lost. "Waited" on by a hostess who didn't know shit. Was expected to pick up own food at a food station. Parked upstairs by "hostess" Very dis appointed. Nothing zen about it. Vegetarian menu was a bad joke

Really struggled with rating this place. It's truly a 2.5 star execution but we loved the concept and suspect it's the best in the area so don't want to discourage others from checking out the establishment. We loved the ideas on the menu, both food and drinks. We skipped the beverages because they didn't have the specific flavors we wanted in stock to make the cocktails advertised. We had three appetizers and a ramen. The global inspiration seems to be solely Asian and heavy on the Japanese influence, actually. In theory, anyway. In practice it was beautifully presented in a potentially great atmosphere but the flavor just didn't deliver. Nothing was bad (except finding a thumb-sized piece of egg shell in the ramen!) but nothing stood out either. Before I describe any more detail, please know that I eat a lot of Asian food. And Asian fusion. A lot. So I'm comparing this place to a real standard and not "for the area". For the area, they were definitely top of class in the Asian-inspired selection. The tempura mushroom was more like a tempura funnel cake. It looked great with a nice garnish but was one big clump and largely devoid of mushrooms. I dissected it and searched for them, so I promise I didn't just miss them. The crispy cauliflower wasn't crispy, it was mealy and oily. The tahini (sesame seed paste) dip that accompanied it was great, though. Generous amount and fresh flavor. That's the expensive part of that dish so I was surprised at just how generous the portion was for a bit of dipping sauce. The duck sliders were the highlight of the appetizers and the meal overall. The buns are bao, a fluffy sweet bread that is typically steamed which gives it a nice shiny exterior. These buns were topped with black and white sesame seeds, well done, the absolute best execution of any aspect of the evening. Inside the buns were a slice of cucumber (fresh but nothing special-and I discarded it as it is not the right texture for a slider, too thick), plenty of fresh cilantro, crispy duck with plum sauce (a bit burned at the edges but the flavor was decent-it's hard to go wrong with duck breast), and a tiny bit of julienned pickled carrots. That was the right concept, but the carrots weren't additive. Not sure if the flavor was too mild and just didn't stand out or if there weren't enough, but it was a shame, could have pushed the dish over the edge to actually excellent. Without the pickled flavor, it was a tad too sweet, even with the cilantro. Still pretty good and with a few tweaks could be great. The mushroom miso ramen was a disappointment. It looked nice. It had a variety of appropriate ingredients and was super well presented. But it didn't have any miso flavor at all. And did I mention the huge piece of egg shell? Not a small bit, it was literally the size of my thumb to the first knuckle joint. When it came out, you could see a dark colored broth, enoki mushrooms and even three slices of a shiitake mushroom (not quite half of a mushroom), maybe five or six small tofu cubes, a poached egg, and finely shredded Napa cabbage (sometimes called Chinese cabbage, the head is the shape of an endive but large like a football with crinkled leaves and a yellow-green color to contrast the white veins, but the actual taste is the same, just a lot more crunch). There was an 'X' on the cabbage in sriracha sauce, which I think was supposed to be a substitute for sweet chili sauce. We realized later that the sauce was actually drizzled all over in wavy cross-cross pattern, but had sunk into the broth everywhere else except for over the cabbage. The cabbage itself wasn't cooked. That's a no-no for Napa. It should be lightly steamed so that it still has texture but not so that it feels like fresh kale grating the inside of your mouth. The rest of the ingredients were fine for what they were, but it didn't come together. And I blame that largely on the complete lack of miso in the ramen. No miso flavor, no miso paste, nothing. It was just a vegetable broth. Disappointing. Again, it wasn't bad. Except for the eggshell. (Yes, I am obviously stuck on this!) It just wasn't the globally-inspired flavors advertised. Miso isn't for everyone. It is fermented bean curd. It is slightly sour and tangy. So if you don't actually like miso, or if you've never had it, this would probably be a great noodle soup. This might be perfect for Vermont! And it was well presented. It just wasn't actually miso ramen. Love the Zenbarn concept. And the cuteness of the actual barn. Service was so-so and the music prep was only mildly disruptive. Execution of the food fine for the area but not truly up to par on a realistic scale. I'd be ok to return if I was back here but would not specifically seek it out if I was in a nearby township.

They officially opened the day before Thanksgiving, and we have been there twice. They overhauled the old Tanglewood space. Feels like they stripped it down to the barn basics and showcased the classic barn features. Warm, comforting vibe. The bar stools se height adjustable - great for us height challenged! The crew here is friendly and pleasant, some are still getting familiar, but they all make an effort to give you a great dining experience. First, we tried their Thanksgiving community dinner. It started with appetizers, but we arrived late, so no feedback on appetizers. Thanksgiving dinner includes candied sweet potatoes, mac & cheese (regular & gluten-free), stuffing, turkey, sautéed greens, mashed potatoes and cornbread. Candied sweet potatoes - thinly sliced with just the right amount of sweetness Mac & cheese - probably personal preference, but it wasn't gooey enough Turkey - perfectly moist & flavorful Mashed potatoes - perfectly smooth & creamy Great community event and family friendly. We came back the day after Thanksgiving with friends to try them out with regular meal service. It wasn't perfect, but expect they will work out the kinks. Tempura Pickled Veggies - delicious! And great with the wasabi aioli Samosas - different approach, wrapped with phyllo sheets, was expecting more of a punch of flavor. This is more of a mild appetizer. Nice contrast in texture between the phyllo vs lentils. The 3 samosas were place on top of the pea shoots, which took away some of the crunch of the pea shoots. Mussels - the coconut red curry was a nice touch, but we weren't given any spoons or bread. We missed most of the flavor, since it was a wide rimmed bowl making it difficult to even slurp the sauce. Norske Rillettes - delicious Starbird smoked Alaskan cod, nice combination of flavors on the stone platter Burgers - in general, they need to flatten out the patties, so that when cooked it can be sized to the bun. Barn burger - okay, but not a standout compared to some of the great burgers in the area Zen burger - nicely flavored, and it kept its shape, didn't fall apart as you ate it Goat Banh Mi burger - favorite of the burgers. strong goat flavor, the pickled veggies didn't jump out. Would be nice to more finely cut the pickled veggies for the burger - bit too chunky Pork Ossobuco - delicious, cooked to perfection. Tender and flavorful. Given all the food we ate, they probably didn't expect us to order dessert. They brought us the bill without asking if we wanted dessert. HAHA We got the flourless chocolate cake and the berry crisp. I didn't try either, but the cake was pretty dry as I watched pieces crumble off as the forks broke through the cake. There were no complaints from our group about flavor though, as both desserts disappeared off the plates. We will definitely be back!

Zenbarn was so dope, I came here on my brother's bachelor weekend with a group of 10 and they were really helpful with the group. The interior of the restaurant and bar really lived up to the name. I actually had my Grandpa call ahead to pay for the meal and they were super helpful with him. I think that's pretty standard for restaurant staff but he said they were nice and I appreciated their help. I had the BBQ Seitan which was decent, but I'd definitely order something else the next time I go. I think like half the table got the ramen and loved it.

Visited Zenbarn from a local recommendation - great atmosphere, beer selection and cocktail list. They had live music starting later in the evening as well.. Wife tried three different cocktails and had the ramen for dinner.. her final cocktail was the 'gin and chronic' - a CBD infused drink. I had a burger and local beers. We ended with the s'mores ganja brownie - a brownie made with CBD, graham cracker and marshmallow topping... amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone in the area.

The four stars are for the absolutely amazing interior of this super-cool barn conversion. Not a detail was spared in designing this restaurant, and we loved the decor and atmosphere. Points also go to the food, which was generally quite good. The ramen had nice touches, but could have used a little heat and spice and less salt. The other food, although presenting as tiny portions, was very good. One point is docked for the smallest, most overpriced beverage pour EVER. We ordered a high-priced cocktail up, and it came in a glass with three sips max. Although it was delicious, I wanted to cry. It was about 1/3 the size of a normal martini, sort of a large thimble. I didn't want to pay for 2 or 3 of them to put together a normal drink, so I didn't order anything else. My partner didn't know the beer would be so tiny when he ordered it on tap (should have looked at the ounces). It came in a very nice, but very teeny belgian-style glass, but it wasn't a Belgian, and it wasn't even full. Maybe eat here but drink before you go.

So rarely has a restaurant experience been so well-rounded that I am raving about every little thing. The food, the ambiance, the beer selection, the unique atmosphere, the service and hospitality... everything was an absolute delight! I made a reservation for our large (and rather rowdy) party the night of the Corporate Cup and, due to fighting with an insane line of traffic to get there because of road construction, they graciously accepted that we were running late. Our waitress was fantastic - very accommodating and friendly. She handled our large party with ease and joined in on our jokes and fun. There was music the night we were there - which appears to be the case most nights - but sitting in the back room, we had no issue both hearing the music and talking. The addition of music really helped make the experience even more enjoyable. What a fun place! Let's not leave out the food! Each dish was wonderfully prepared and we devoured everything. I shared appetizers of Chickpea Fritters, Zen Spring Rolls, and Shanghai Meatballs with a few folks and later enjoyed the Barn Burger. Not ready to wrap up the night, we ended the evening with a round of desserts which were equally scrumptious. I eagerly await the next time I'm in Waterbury and will be sure to bring my husband / daughter as this is a wonderful place for a nice family dinner as well as for a romantic evening with the spouse, sans kiddo.

This place turned out to be amazing. We traveled a slight distance outside of stowe because of limited restaurant availability. Covid measures were top notch but not an inconvenience. Food was spectacular from burgers to fries to minestrone soup. I myself got the pork chop which was probably the best pork chop I've had in months. Vegan and gluten free options. Trends healthy with most food choices but has standard bar choices as well. Full Bar and live music on Saturday. Plenty of room and privacy to enjoy a meal with friends or significant other. Well done all around.

Saw the great reviews online and made a reservation. The band was the highlight of our dinner there. Ordering is confusing, you don't have a waiter, you need to get up every time you want to order and wait in a line. Half the time there was no one standing at the POS monitor to take your order. If you want water you must get it yourself from a water cooler. You are also responsible for bussing your own dishes. When we were ready to pay we had to wait in the line again. The employee processing our payment turned the screen for us to tip and walked away. When we were leaving we thought our bill seemed high so we got back in line to ask for our receipt. There were two things on our receipt that we hadn't ordered. When we showed them our receipt they seemed annoyed to have to remove items we never ordered. Food was decent but didn't up for bad service.

My fiancé and I tried zen barn last night, I thought it was a bit dark for my liking. I couldn't really see much of what I was eating, but the brussel sprouts app was okay, a bit sweet but it was tolerable. The chicken and waffles entree left much to be desired.. Could have used some seasoning. Waited about 3-4 minutes before anyone brought us to a table, while it had appeared slow. Hopefully food gets a bit better. Nice atmosphere, a bit cold in the upstairs seating area though. Over all good experience, food was just lacking.

My family and I were visiting from California and thought we'd give Zen Barn a try after a busy day hiking and seeing the sites in Stowe. I gotta say we were not disappointed, this place is super kid friendly (we have 3 daughters), it was almost like having a babysitter! The burgers and drink menu were top notch. The service here is AMAZING! Ari and Noah are about two of the sweetest guys you can imagine. One "locals only" tip I learned is to ask Ari for the "North Fayston Special", I still don't know how he concocted such magic in a glass, but you can thank me later. If for no other reason, go to the Zen Barn for this.

Look no further for a friendly, delightful totally Vermont dining experience. Our server, Beth was so warm and knowledge she chatted with us as though she was an old friend. We started with the Roasted Onion Crudités served with fresh seasonal veggies and naan. I'm now obsessed with attempting to recreate this at home! We then had the Zen black bean burger which was served topped with avacado and onion strings, crunchy and delicious, loved the pickles too! My husband loved Pork Bhan Mi with sprouts pickled veggies! We left not one bite behind! Everyone will find something they like on the wine, beer and cocktail menu with numerous local selections! The dining room has been carefully designed for a sense of upscale ease, lots of art work to check out! Our thanks to Beth for such an excellent experience! Can't wait to return!

Stopped into Zenbarn for dinner and to see some live bluegrass. We were a group of four and had a reservation. When we walked in, our table was already ready, and the band was setting up to play. I ordered a bunch of sides - salad, mac and cheese, and cowboy beans. They were all fantastic. The dressing wasn't overwhelming on the fresh greens. The cowboy beans were smoky and sweet. The mac and cheese had a little breading and a creamy cheese sauce. My other dining partners had the seitan/jackfruit bbq, the 420 burger, and the brisket. I tried a bit of the seitan/jackfruit bbq and it was so good. The texture was a little springy, but the taste was fantastic. The corn muffins that came on the side were mildly sweet and perfectly sized. The coleslaw had a bit of heat to it, and the brisket was juicy and thick. Definitely will come back here when I'm in the area.

Fantastic food! Great drinks featuring amazing local beers and liquors. Lovely people. Beautiful setting.

Happy Anniversary Zenbarn! Who knew you'd grow from being a favorite bar and restaurant and the most family friendly eatery to being the best music venue in the area!? Outstanding! And then there was the food... butternut squash spring rolls with amazing Asian inspired flavors. A roasted chicken with wild rice that was the epitome of comfort food on a cold night. Mixed greens with a perfectly cooked salmon filet. All accompanied by craft beer from Foam and Schulzbrau. Cheers Zenbarn!

This place is really fantastic, even when judged beside all the other great dining choices that the Stowe area has to offer. First off, their beer selection is superb. Local craft beers to fit every taste. The place was packed with "beer tourists" when I was there. And the bartender really knows her stuff to help you select a beer to fit what you are looking for. Secondly, their food is great too. Served up by an attentive wait staff that took really good care of my wife and I. And there is even a yoga studio upstairs to help you find your "zen" before or after your meal. Highly recommend. Will definitely be going back.

We ordered family style grass fed skirt steak which comes with chimmichurri sauce on a bed of creamed corn and roasted whole fingerling potatoes. Cost is $66 and menu indicates that this would be an entree for 3-4 people. We asked the waiter if we should order salads or sides and he indicated it would be more than enough food. So we just decided to wait for the entree. It arrived on a lovely white platter about 9x 12. The steak had a good char, was perfectly done, in fact. I just was surprised that the amount of beef on the plate probably came from a piece of skirt steak that was about 12 oz precooked. There were 9 thin slices of beef on the platter -- cooked we had about 3 oz a person at most which is definitely what a person should eat if they are trying to make animal protein the smallest part of the plate. But it's important to be aware of the serving size. So. The upshot is-- I don't think this is an unfair price for the quality. Not at all. But I think the restaurant needs to suggest that their staff recommend that if more than two people are sharing this portion they might want to order a starter and a salad to round things out. (We were two adults and a ten year old child). The server was lovely about it and did speak to the kitchen and provided a discount on the check. This is definitely an excellent restaurant with a great kitchen. Fabulous surroundings. Excellent cocktail and wine and beer list. Just be aware that the menu may be one that is more focused on many little tastes and you should order accordingly.

Stopped here on a Friday night on the way to Stowe. The set up was somewhat odd - with a wide open space that felt barren when no band is playing there. The food was fine and seating is much more available than some of the busy Stowe or Waterbury Village restaurants on a Friday night.

The whole family had a great time at the Zenbarn! The only complaint that anyone came up with was that the side salad was slightly overdressed. The kids loved the focaccia, homemade mac n' cheese, grilled corn on the cob and green apple slices. The barn burger was scrumptious and cooked perfectly. The roasted brussel sprouts were amazingly flavorful. The beer list was quite good and they had some interesting cocktails. I ordered the iced tea and was really pleased to receive a refreshing yet creative take on a standard. The iced tea had subtle ginger flavors. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. They helped at all the right times and asked for feedback as well. This is officially our new favorite restaurant. It's rare to find a place the whole family loves.

Skirt steak so good... Also had delicious asparagus and brought my friend the tempeh burger. DELISH. Staff very helpful and caring.

What a find! We haven't been here since it was Tanglewoods. First of all, what a transformation. The building has always had the appearance of a barn from the outside but now the new owners have opened the place up and exposed the rustic beams and rafters and it actually looks like a rustic barn inside as well! When you enter you are greeted by the hostess and a view of the industrial rustic bar. We sat at the bar for a bit and were taken care of by an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable bartender. She offered my spouse 3 wines to sample before she settled on one for a full pour. Very cool. I inquired about craft whiskey and she was very helpful. She made me a lemony drink that was out of this world. Our other guest showed up and we transferred to the table. We snacked on house made chips which were very tasty. Then we had the root salad with cider vinaigrette and shared the roasted carrot plate which were delicious. I had the Farro risotto which was amazing and my spouse ordered the papardelle with mushrooms which was divine. Our other guest had the roasted salmon which was wonderful. Afterwards we were offered dessert. There were 2 choices, one with chia seeds and the other was a pot de creme . We elected for coffee as we were so full. Overall LOVED IT. Great food, great service, great ambiance. Maybe a couple more dessert choices would make it perfect. Please go to this place. I guarantee you will not be disappointed

RAMEN!!! Enjoyed their miso ramen bowl last night - it's the best I've had in Vermont, maybe the whole northeast. That combined with a fun vibe and great cocktail list make this a great spot for Waterbury/Stowe dining. Great spot for live music too!

Great experience here on a holiday weekend!! Made reservations about 2 hrs before we went and glad we did because there was a line to be seated. We shared the spicy crispy cauliflower and the beef brisket with beans and all were delicious!!! Service was great despite being very busy. The hostess appears to be in charge, and did a nice job of handling the flow. At the kitchen counter, a man appeared to be in charge of making sure all food was delivered promptly and hot!!! Highly recommend this place!!!

Five stars! We got dinner while music played in the bar area. Started with the chips and onion dip (they offer CBD onion dip, lol) and I got the Ramen while my husband got the burger and my daughter had Mac and cheese. We all loved the food and the Ganja Brownie (CBD again, but we got it without) was incredible. Waitresses were so friendly and accommodating for our daughter who just wanted to play with everything. A great meal and great hospitality!

I've been meaning to write this for a while. I had an amazing thanksgiving dinner here. The food was excellent, the place was very spacious and the owner and staff were extremely friendly. My daughter had all the space in the world to run around and play with the other kids (they even had a smaller table for her). It didn't feel like a restaurant - it felt like I was eating at someone's large home. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

I saw the reviews so visited this place for dinner. Was greatly disappointed in the food and service. Wouldn't recommend it.

Don't bother going here. Called and say they are open. We went out of our way on Sunday and no one was there despite signs saying they are open. How difficult is it to update?

Zenbarn was the perfect venue for our wedding. We had several compliments from guest that it suited us perfectly. It was rustic and charming with a very fun calming atmosphere. Lin was the perfect coordinator! She kept us calm and on track the entire time. All of my emails prior were answer within a few hours no matter how small the matter. We were struggling to find a venue that would accommodate an intimate wedding on a tight budget while still having all the traditional aspects a large venue would offer. Zenbarn was able to accommodate us and even set up all of our decorations so we had nothing to worry about but getting married! The food was superb and would 100% do it here again given the chance. We had the wedding of our dreams thanks to Lin and the team at Zenbarn!

Great food, great service, artisan space loved the Pork Ramen! Best. Veggie burger ever had ! Would be nice to have music in restaurant portion through speaker system. Will be back!

Our huge extended family w 8 kids (15 ppl total) came here after the VT Memorial Day wkend marathon. So friendly & accommodating! Cocktails w CBD were delish. Fun restaurant vibe. Kids liking playing outside in the field, cornhole & ping-pong while we sat on the patio w our pre-dinner drinks.

Decided to try out this place and we are SO happy we did! The service was phenomenal - we wish we could remember the waitresses name, maybe Beth, blond and extremely helpful and kind. She told us all about the menu and even brought us an extra appetizer, on her! One guy from my party said our waitress MADE him want to return. The food was exceptional, and the drinks were tasty. Overall, I would check out this place, and we definitely would like to return.

Went to dinner with 7 people. Split 4 appetizers and all had meals. Food was delicious and service was great. Since we had a few vegetarians with us the menu had a number of items that fit the bill. We stayed for the music and the vibe was also great. A good venue for music. Definitely looking forward to going back.

This place was a great find! The service was so prompt and the food was absolutely delicious. I got the ramen with was amazing and my husband said their chicken sandwich was the best he has ever had. Absolutely give it a try!

This was the best meal of my last trip to VT, and my first time here. I will be back. We were wanting something outside of the heavy meats / burgers that so many places in VT do so well, and this hit the spot. My dining companion is gluten free, so that can be a challenge, but it wasn't here. I am not a big veggie guy, but the crispy cauliflower with tahnini was pretty aces. We also has some calamari which was great, meatballs which were ok, and I forget the fourth dish. The tap list was good, as one would expect in this region of VT. Very fair prices too.

Start to finish we had a wonderful experience! Drinks and appetizers were delicious! We were a party of 8 so there was a lot of variety and everyone loved their dinners! We will go back again!

Family friendly. Food was not great. The calamari was disappointing. Rather than be a steamed calamari, it had thin noodles and a peanut sauce. Undercooked squid. Heirloom tomatoes were okay. Ramen was not that good compared to places in Boston... but a lot more money. Overall it was pretty disappointing.

We visited the ZenBarn for the first time ever as part of their special Ethiopian Night. Meal was exceptional, drinks were fabulous and we can't wait to return this week for live music. Great vibes, service and food.
