I’m super bummed to see some of the OG sandwiches removed from the menu. We’re locals and loved being able to pop in or take out a quick Basic Bae sando. Sadly it’s becoming a bit too expensive for a weekly bite to eat. 3 stars for moving away from an approachable small town joint - your food is delicious! Please bring back some of the more casual fare!

I absolutely love this place. The new changes they’ve made recently have truly elevated the experience. They’ve moved to an elevated gastro-pub vibe and it’s incredible. I’m especially a fan of the small plates. I love the Arancini, Brussel sprouts, and the bao buns. The service is always with care and love. You can tell the people really care about the experience. Everything comes out so fast now and is always top-tier. I hope people give the new menu a chance because it’s truly exceptional. Great spot for locals and out-of-staters :) pictured is the pork belly my partner got, they cleaned the plate. SO GOOD!!!!
Dietary restrictions: tons of gluten free options!!
Wheelchair accessibility: they have a ramp and accessible tables so I can bring my wheelchair-user friends!

Fun place. Great food and cocktails. They have a new menu as of late October 2024 with more big plates available. Their menu is part asian influence with classic options like smash burgers, steak frites, etc. RIP to their crab rangoons- hopefully they will be back on the menu soon.
The brussel sprouts are to die for!!! They were amazing!

Best pulled pork sandwich in Vermont! I was starting to get worried I wouldn’t find any seasoned food here! Also the atmosphere is super cool and the service was great!

Hatchet has an awesome space, delicious food, and an incredible cocktail program. Brussel sprouts were among the best I've ever had, and the katsu, pulled pork sandwich, and short rib ragu were all excellent. (Especially the ragu!) The space is well-designed, with well-placed acoustic panels that keep the noise at a pleasant level and contribute to the consistent color scheme, and the "hatchet" decor is distinctive and memorable. Staff were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable, and service was very quick. Cocktails were creative and well-designed, with a range of flavors featuring a range of house-made ingredients and infusions. I can't wait to come back and try more from the talented team in the kitchen!

I love to drive and find new restaurants. Richmond had not had any good restaurants for a while.
Yes, the Brewery has good food and good beer.
I was not aware of Hachets, I was pleasantly surprised. I was early on a beautiful summer afternoon. So I was their only customer. The service was great. You have to realize I usually dine alone . I have become a student of staff reaction when I say one, and they are looking for at least two. I had smashed cucumber salad, which was done the way I like it. Dressing was very nice, and the dish was presented in a most appetizing way. I also had chicken dumplings. I am not a connasoir, but they were really good. Again, the presentation was suttle, but it showed they cared and knew what they were doing. It was beautiful in its simplicity. I can't wait to get back and try some other dishes
Did I enjoy the banh mi fries even more than a good poutine? Is the Hatchet smash burger the best thing between two buns in Chittenden county? I think yes on both fronts. Can't wait to explore more of the menu.

Hatchet is FANTASTIC! We have been wanting to go here for years and finally decided to drive the 45 minutes to Richmond…it was so worth it! This is a super unique Asian-American fusion restaurant with some incredible options on the menu. Excellent gluten-free options and the pricing is good for the quality of food you’re getting! We got this very good mocktail with black cherry and orange and a bunch of other stuff in it - super good and highly recommended if you can find it on the menu! For food we got the umami black bean salt edamame, smashed cucumber, kung pao popcorn chicken, wafu crunch salad, and their Korean short ribs with squid ink grits. We also got the hot dog octopus for our 6 year old - they have a good kids’ menu!
All of the food was incredible - so many unique flavors in every bite!! Our top favorites were the kung pao popcorn chicken and the Korean short ribs specifically; however, we would order everything again. There are so many more good-looking options on the menu, you can come many times before you have tried all of what Hatchet offers! Plus, they own a creemee stand across the street with some very unique flavors (sometimes), so you can even great a signature Vermont dessert after your meal! Fantastic, 10/10 place - we will be returning!!

The service was interminably slow. As we sat there an hour for food to arrive, we remembered that the last time we ate here it was super slow. As much as like the menu, we probably won’t be back.
