Food and Drink
Foam Brewers
Perhaps Burlington's best brewery, this one is worth driving to! And if you’ll be in the area for more than just the weekend, swing by on Tuesday for DJ night or Thursday for jazz night.
Idletyme Brewing Company
Come for the drinks, stay for the vibes! Idletyme’s large backyard is a fun place to hang, whether you’re getting a beer, some bar bites, or a full meal.
Piecasso
Right in the heart of Stowe, this pizzeria is a great place to share a pie with friends and family, particularly if you can snag a table on the patio!
Prohibition Pig
Pro Pig’s restaurant and adjoining brewery offer two different menus, so grab a bite and a beer at whichever suits your fancy! If you eat at the brewery, we highly recommend the nachos.

Eli's favorite brewery! Go grab the (former) number one beer in the world, Heady Topper, in their backyard, open 11am-6pm daily.
The Blackback Pub
This unassuming pub is home to the best beer menu in the area. Sip your way through all of Vermont's best breweries at this Waterbury institution.
