Restaurants near Bennington Center for the Arts

The Proprietor was was very friendly & made us feel welcomed! She made a great bourbon Old Fashioned in the bar where a cozy fire was burning in the fireplace as a talented gentleman played music. Obviously a popular place to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner! Every table was full in both dining rooms. Service was leisurely, and courses were served properly. The Brie appetizer was delicious; Seafood Chowder was phenomenal; endive & orange salad was crisp & fresh; traditional turkey dinner was amazing & homemade pumpkin pie was impressive! Great wine list too 👍. Our 3rd floor queen room is spacious & comfortable. We’ll definitely return. Looking forward to breakfast in the morning.

Amazing service and food. Fresh ingredients combined for innovative takes on familiar favorites.

Excellent salad bar and surf and turf at a reasonable price. We had to request a change of wait staff at the beginning of the meal since we were ignored for a larger party for nearly 15 minutes and when confronted the waiter told me “to be civil.” Disgraceful behavior towards a guest but a new waitress took right over immediately and the service from there was flawless. The restaurant put our appetizer on the house as a gesture of good will and we appreciated that.

We had an incredible dinner at Mezze last night. The food was excellent, the service was amazing, and the ambiance was lovely. The menu was curated for local fall ingredients, and everything was so fresh. I can’t wait to come back next time I’m in the area.

Always delicious! Festive environment by the bar, but it’s probably quieter in one of the side rooms.
