"We were seated right away in for lunch, with Abbey Road on the turntable, and Fleetwood Mac Rumors on deck…black t-shirt clad wait staff bustled around and my 51 year old self felt right at home. Service was friendly and efficient and the menu worked great with the ever-present VT craft beer selection they had on tap. We sampled some small plates, (white fish with saltines, cheddar fritters) and each got a seasonal salad with chicken thighs. All was tasty, and thoughtfully prepared. [when I learned they are owned by the same people as renowned Hen of the Woods, I wasn’t surprised. Doc Ponds felt like the cool, laid-back brother to that place. Good genes"

I love docs for the beer and the memories, but the vegan options are not marked and super limited.

One of the best dinner spots in Stowe. They have a turntable playing records that’s curated by the host or hostess throughout dinner. Very cool. The food is incredible, so don’t be skeptical of their smallish menu. Beer list is also top notch. Highly recommend.

Friendly and fast service! Sah on the terrace with our pup and had a great experience. The BBQ chips were burst with taste and crunch. Loved the unique roasted peanuts. My husband thought the chicken sandwich and the French fries were delicious. I ordered the market salad and it was fresh and delicious. Would definitely recommend!

"Dining at Edson Hill is clearly meant to be an experience. They certainly charge you for it. At those prices, execution and flavor need to be spot on, and they just ... weren't. Pumpkin soup was so bland and thick, it was like eating flavorless applesauce. Scallops were very good, and cooked nicely, but thrown on top of a pile of spaghetti squash that, again, lacked any flavor. It was clearly squash season, but not a hint of spice or nutmeg. The duck was the highlight of the meal, and the only dish that was executed correctly. Our steak frites was so disappointing. The cut should have been saved for well done, it was not a quality piece of filet, which is the wrong steak for a frites anyways. The fries were perfect and plentiful, but when the fries outshine the steak on a frites plate, that's a problem. For $52 I expect a nice cut. Everything lacked salt and pepper. Dessert was fine, but the cheesecake didn't taste of pumpkin at all, and really didn't taste of cheesecake either, more of a slightly sour mousse cake. All in all, this was a lesson. Take your money to Montreal or the Eastern Townships. They do fine dining better, cheaper, and more casually so you don't have to play along with the stilted service only to be disappointed by the food. Edson Hill is meant for an over 50 crowd who is still more impressed by an obsequious maitre d'hotel than by properly seasoned food."
