Few Vermont eateries are as atmospheric as this tiny 200-year-old crossroads tavern 8 miles south of Woodstock, with worn wooden floors that ooze history. Enjoy burgers, fish and chips or shepherd's pie downstairs at the bar or in the more intimate space upstairs. Friday evenings, when there's live music and the band takes up half the room, are a special treat.
