Restaurants near Northfield

“A perfect little cafe with an excellent drink selection and baked goods. Wonderful for either in and out service or to sit and chat with a friend for hours. Excellent music and chill vibes.”

“Wonderful owner and service, great food, phenomenal menu and great craft beer! Would highly recommend and we will be back soon!”

“awesome food and service!”

“Was at the Coop n Middlebury on Saturday. My husband and I saw this bread……a 32oz loaf of this beautiful, Italian bread. We both have Italian roots, so you know how Italians are with 🥖 bread!! We bought a loaf of the Pane Siciliano…… we will now probably never buy another brand of bread… we are hooked. This bread is better than the local bakery bread we grew up on as kids!! And it’s even better that we found it’s sold at 2 local stores in Rutland!!! Thank you 😊”

“This cafe is quaint but the quality of the food is unmatched. The homemade corned beef omelette is incredible, the coffee is strong and the rye bread was some of the best I ever had. It's clear this is a local favorite and not a tourist trap and the price to quality shows.”

“Called in to the Northfield, VT store for a large loaded pizza at 7:00pm. The food was ready for pickup when I arrived...Crust was perfect and the toppings of pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms and green peppers were GREAT.. ON SPECIAL for $9.99....”

“I ordered 10 pizzas for my sons soccer team from Boston after their game at Norwich. The pizzas were delicious, reasonably priced and delivered on time. Thanks so much!”

“We are picky eaters with very specific requests. Hannah gets it right every time, with a smile. More than once she’s been the only one behind the counter, with a line that goes to the door, and a train on online order slips. Where most would get flustered she just keeps on keeping on. She acknowledges every person who walks through the door.
It’s unbelievable and unfortunate that she works alone at the busiest time of the day.
Food choices are limited in northfield, so I come often. Usually there is a 10 minute lapse in wait time due to staffing issues.”

“Absolutely amazing tasting, beautifully plated food and drink! Broccolini Caesar salad, Crispy Pork & Scallops and a delicious, melt in your mouth Porterhouse steak! No room for the dessert but the drinks were a wonderful treat! Service as wonderful as the food ❤”

“Great location and friendly staff. And that Maple ice cream!!! 👍🏼”

“Been eating here ever since they opened granted sometimes there is some inconsistency but other than that it’s one of my favorite spots in Montpellier.”

“Amazing and delicious bakery! Friendly staff and a great place for a yummy snack!”

“Derrick is the most personable bartender in Montpelier and I’m SO HAPPY that Hugo’s brought back my wedge salad. Love the vibe here. Love the live music. What a gem💜”

“Every time I've been, the menu has been almost entirely different and I've ordered a wide sampling from the menu. I've test to have a single bite of food that wasn't thoughtful, intentional, perfectly prepared, and delicious. The bar program is also fantastic, as is the service. I cannot recommend this spot highly enough!”

“Friendly staff, great beer selection and prices.”

“they have great ice cream”

“This is a beautiful spot by the winooski river, we ate on the outside porch with a view of the river, even saw a mother Robin feeding its young in a nest in the rafters. I had linguine pescatore which was delicious, my partner had scampi e cape sante also delicious but unfortunately both meals were light on the scallops hers had 1, also I have to wonder why some sort of bread wouldn’t be served with these dishes. I did mention to staff after and they offered to compensate which I turned down but was made sure I would be treated next time we’re in the area The staff here are great and service was quick, definitely a place to go”

“literally the best restaurant and bar in Montpelier actually is in Middlesex about 3 miles up interstate 89- between the music, the service, and the food are all indescribablly good in light of what you might expect from a local tavern or restaurant – the food is excellent prepared and very thoughtful in it preparation; i’ve been there three or four times, and I continue to walk away, thinking it’s the best Cape secret in Central, Vermont”

“Amazing coffee and their scones are perfection! Definitely a great place to check out!”

“LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Always great service and delicious food!”

“Don’t sleep on Indian-Nepali Kitchen— best Indian food in Vermont! The dishes are packed with so much flavor, the portions are generous, and the owners are super friendly! We jump at the opportunity to stop in and try something new every time we are in Montpelier. On one of our visits, my partner wanted a beer, and the owner let him try an imported Indian ale from his own stock. So good! Grab take out, or even better drop in and get the full experience!!”

“This is not a restaurant this is a bread shop and they have a bathroom and great fresh bread the people are friendly and cash only I spent 12 dollars for 2 full size loafs”

“A cozy intimate Vietnamese restaurant that I highly recommend. They have a number of interesting dishes with Thai twists like lemongrass beef vermicelli, chili stir fried wide noodle. Everything is very tasty and the staffs here are very nice.”

“Penzo makes the perfect pizza. The dough is baked just right and there are enough tasty menu options that we can have a different meal each time we go. They are super friendly and just want to make the world a better place through good food. I'd also add that their prices are below the curve. We miss you in Montpelier!!!”

“Best coffee shop in Vermont. The staff is amazing and so helpful. We happily patronize Capitol Grounds weekly because of the quality coffee, chai tea lattes, and breakfast sandwiches.”

“I love Vermont. Truly, its beauty is incredible, the brewpub’s fantastic and the restaurants fabulous Is it wrong that Bohemian Bakery is my favorite thing that I “found” since moving here? Annies pastries are AMAZING! I never had a Kouign Amman before here. O M G I’m an addict now.”
