Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Lake Champlain Islands

VERY high quality food at this lovely, cozy-feeling cafe out in the country. Everything was beautifully flavorful, fresh, perfectly seasoned. Our group split the roasted oysters appetizer, and the house-made pastrami appetizer, both of which were amazing. My companions both ordered pasta dishes. I tried to order the special pasta (squash bucatini) but it was sold out. The shrimp and grits I pivoted to were amazing, though, so no regrets! One thing I was a little surprised by was the number of menu items that were sold out by the time we ordered. We had a 6:00 p.m. reservation, so I wouldn't have expected so many things to sell out so early in the evening. That said, the restaurant was packed, with parties who had gotten there even earlier than us, so I gather the dinner hour skews a bit early in rural Vermont. Ambiance and service were lovely. Prices were in line with what I'd expect at a higher end, farm-to-table venue. I would definitely dine here again!

We had a delightful dinner of reclette done at the table. There was plenty of meats, cheese, and boiled baby potatoes to make a great dinner!

Great vibes as always! Very chill Nordic-inspired room
