What a hidden gem. The restaurant is charming. We had a lovely spot in the front dining area overlooking the lake. We brought our out-of-town guests, and enjoyed the fried brussel sprouts and the saffron mussels for appetizers. Entrees were very good. The server was a pleasure, although the timing for serving was a little off (appetizers came before drinks; entrees were served before cleaning appetizer plates). That was overlooked because we had such an enjoyable evening. We will certainly return.

We had a fantastic meal where they accommodated my shellfish allergy and still gave my husband a delicious meal full of shellfish. The waitress, Dee, was very busy but still found time to check on us and make sure we were having a great time. Overall five stars and worth the drive!

The Pier Bar is not easy to find. The sign and open flag are a house, but once approaching house you can tell it is not a restaurant. The Pier Bar is actually located at the House labeled North Hero House. Once we realized we’re to go it was easy to find hostess. We were seated quickly. Server came over and took drink order. Apologized she was busy. Brought drinks and took food order. All the food came out at once by a food runner. We never received our Mac N Cheese which was “soup special” and a starter. They forgot the cheese on our burger. Took back slapped some cold cheese on it and sent it back out. The kids cheese quesadilla was literally sliced American cheese and probably one slice on it. It was overcooked, kids wouldn’t eat. Also came with house chips and not tortilla corn chips. Not worth $12. The fish tacos were over seasoned and couldn’t be eaten. This came with tortilla chips. I think they mixed up which chips with which food order. Server was too busy to notice we barely ate anything and didn’t compensate. She did remove Mac n cheese since we never got it. Over all not worth $90. I think this place is visited for its outdoor seating on the lake and not its food.

Sure! Here's a review you can use: --- My husband and I had an absolutely wonderful experience at the North Hero House. From the moment we walked in, the service was outstanding. The wait staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was simply delicious. My husband enjoyed the haddock and lobster, and he couldn't stop raving about it. I had the tortilla crisp appetizer, which was delightful—crispy, flavorful, and the perfect start to the meal. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it easy to relax and enjoy our time. We always have such a fun and enjoyable experience here, and we'll definitely keep coming back. The North Hero House is truly a gem!!!

I had a wonderful experience at the North Hero House! The food was delicious and the view was amazing. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great sit-down meal in the Champlain Islands of Vermont. Very kind staff as well!!!

The transformation of the Inn and Restaurant since our last visit is fabulous. Loved the friendly staff, delicious braised beef hash, even the fascinating coffee table book about the history of the Island and the Inn, including the ancestors of the owners. Pretty magical place.

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary with having dinner on the porch overlooking the lake. It was a perfect spot. Our waitress was very friendly and she made sure we had everything we needed and made recommendations about desserts. We were very happy with our dining experience and we will definitely come back.
It was an excellent dinner. However, the Bread pudding that was on the special menu was burned on the bottom. Disappointing. I had the chicken and wild rice and my husband had the kebabs with sweet potato wedges. They were divine!

While the fish and chips (x2) were excellent, the burger was rare, asked for medium, and the ahoi Tuna was salty.
