I went solo on a busy Saturday. I was going to grab a beer and wait by the firepit outside while a spot opened, however, the host was very accommodating for me and helped me nab a stool at the bar within about 5 minutes. The beer menu was great and I ordered the Crunch Wrap. Do yourself a favor and do the same. It's all the great things about a TB one, but with fresh ingredients and CHEESE MELTED ON TOPPP.The atmosphere is interesting because its a bike shop, but also a restaurant. It's almost like Stowe's version of a Nashville Boot Shop/ Honky-tonk, it just works. I am genuinely disappointed I hadn't checked it out before since I'm not a huge bike person, please don't make that mistake too!I noticed on the menu that they do Brunch Wraps and Mimosas on Sundays and I have yet to make the pilgrimage to enjoy those yet, so you my friend, will have to do that for me.Kid-friendliness: Very open and bustling environment with family friendly options.

The bartender refused to serve me because she thought my license was fake. While I understand the right to refuse service, I don’t see how there isn’t a way to verify (like a scanner) real vs fake IDs. Very disappointed in her lack of service.Edit/ My suggestion is that there should be better training of staff to identify fake licenses or a scanning device to assist, if the staff is unfamiliar with a neighboring states ID.This review is about the service, not the food.

I had the opportunity to go here last weekend while visiting town. Oh my gosh! Being dairy free, I can’t remember the last time I had a crunch wrap supreme or anything comparable. It was AMAZING! Highly recommend, great drink selection as well. Sat at the bar, and felt comfortable and welcome enough to stay a couple hours.

Had a great experience here! Fantastic service! It was our first time using FatBikes and took an easier trail that was close by. We also got to experience the best Fried Artichokes I have ever had! Ranch Camps vibe is amazing chill?
Great beer selection, chicken burrito was awesome, and service was fantastic (who ever was working behind the bar last night)

We were in town to ski and saw a mountain bike themed spot with good reviews and had to check it out - so glad we did! We had a great meal and beers and got the 411 on the local trails from a great guy in the bike shop (we will be back in the warmer months to ride!). We bought a couple hats and headed back to the hotel. We were so impressed that on our last night in town we went back, rented some fat bikes, rode and came back to hang out for a bit. Lovely staff, hang out and fantastic food. We will be back.

The bartender only spoke to me to ask to take away my menus. I asked if there was any chance I could order. Surprisingly, she did take my order, even though she obviously did not want to. I felt like a freak of nature because everyone else at the bar was getting quick service. I had been sitting there for 10 minutes. I looked at her every minute or two, indicating I wanted to order, but she ignored me, except to take away first my drink menu, then my food menu. And that was so that she could give them to other people. She never asked if I wanted a drink.The tacos and guacamole lacked salt majorly.To the owner: I see in other reviews that you ask the customers if they asked to speak to the management. I did not because I could hardly get the bartender's attention at all. It was extremely rude. It was last night, Saturday 2/10/24 and it was the young bartender with blond hair, a cap, and a lot of makeup. I would have been happy to speak to you in person, that would have felt a lot better than being ignored. Also, there are no chain restaurants in Stowe, so our honest reviews may help people find a different restaurant in town.But, most people would probably get service at the bar, unlike me, so if you look like a normal restaurant-goer in Stowe, it will probably go well. The other people at the bar got service just fine, that's why the bartender wanted the menus from me, to give them to the customers whom she saw deserving of service. My friend didn't have a problem getting service. The bartender was purposely ignoring me, my friend noticed and was the one who pushed me to tell the bartender to take my order. It honestly felt like discrimination.It's too bad because I was there in November 2023 and both the food and service were much better.

My go to in Stowe! I always make sure to stop by when I am in the area. They have a wide variety of foods from fun salads to filling hot entrees. The desserts are great and the vibe is fun and casual. Perfect place for a group or if you are vegan/vegetarian/gluten free.

We ordered the sweet potato fries and the hippie fries to start. The hippie fries were superb, especially with the yogurt side. For dinner we had the beet salad, veggie focaccia, tuna bowl and the veggie burrito and all were superb! The staff was very friendly. It was just a bit cold in the restaurant. The posters were really cool!
