Small, uniquely decorated restaurant. Lots of old lunch boxes and other interesting memorabilia. Keeps you entertained while waiting for you food. Service was very good as was the Vermont Company coffee. I ordered the Caesar salad and a cup of the âworld famous chowderâ. The Caesar salad is a $9 huge bowlful of lettuce with some croutons and a smattering of dressing. Totally unimpressive. The chowder was good but Iâve had better. It had shrimp, clams, bacon, celery, carrots, onion and was supposed to have smoked sausage but I didnât have any in mine. My spouse ordered the Eggs benedict with sourdough bread, bacon, spinach, poached eggs, and a small side salad. He said it was ok but nothing special. So a lot of nothing special for $40. I really wanted to like this place but we wonât be back.

We needed some food in the awkward afternoon hours between "why didn't we eat lunch yet?" and "it's too early for dinner." Barnyard was our solution, and it was a good choice. Apparently there was an important basketball game going on, so it started filling up a little bit by the time that we left, but there really weren't many people in there on this Thursday afternoon.Our server was lovely and answered my friends questions about the beer list. I don't remember what she had, just that it had maple in it (when in Vermont...).We had the Broad Side pizza with garlic sauce, bacon, apples, caramelized onions, and maple syrup drizzle, which was the perfect combination of savory and sweet. Now that I think about it, this was the first meal of three days in a row that I had something that contained cheese and apples, which is a totally underrated combination. We also had the lava cake for dessert, which I think is one of those things that you just can't do wrong.

Couldn't resist the name. Dropped in for dinner and found it friendly and welcoming, the kind of neighbourhood bar where everyone knows your name, but they didn&t mind a few tourists, either.Beer menu was expensive and the beer was cold. My wife recommended the taco salad.Fun place for refuelling of an evening.

The service was great and the menu offered a lot of nice choices. Beer was also amazing.We asked for medium well burgers and they were served VERY well done. The taste was still decent but disappointing. The worst part was how smoky and hot it was inside this restaurant. It seemed as though the ventilation was not working. We had to leave several times to get air outside while waiting for our food. It was also cold and raining so we could not eat outside.

Stopped by for lunch with friends and spent two hours catching up. The restaurant was not slammed and since the space wasnât needed we just enjoyed ourselves. The staff was great as was the food. I had the Reuben sandwich with fries, everybody else had the salad bar. Our lunch was great. The facility was clean and very comfortable. The menu prices were very reasonable.

Wanted to meet a friend for a beer and he suggested McGillicuddy's in Williston. Glad he did, because we were able to converse in a comfortable pub atmosphere with a great selection of beers to choose from. Can't comment on food, but we did enjoy a couple of the Kentucky bourbon ales, a thick and dark Stillwater stout and the Revision Lord Lupulin New Englnad style IPA, a nice hazy tart pale ale. Looked like a great place to bring the family on a Friday eve for pub food and then shopping or a movie nearby. Lots of TVs for sports fans. Must say the bartender we had was just the best! Can't recall his name, but did he know his beers. Very knowledgeable without being stuffy or superior. We really enjoyed conversing with him.

We took our granddaughter and a friend here for lunch after shopping. Stan, our server, was personable and quick. The girls ordered the triple dipper app which come with their choice of three starters and dipping sauce. These included the burger sliders, some taco bites, etc. We enjoyed the Caribbean Shrimp Salad and the Shrimp tacos. All the shrimp were fresh and tender. Great food all around. Everyone enjoyed. Place was hopping full, yet we were served fast. Clean and comfortable.

Revisited this steakhouse after many many years ago, which, back then, didn't quite meet up to our expectation. Verdict, not much changed since then. Aside from the main course, the Caesar salad was decent. Topped with anchovies (optional) and a healthy amount of shaved parmigiana cheese, this was very decent.My wife had the salmon, which was a tad overcooked (too long under the hot lamp?) and my 14oz ribeye steak... though nicely flavored, was very "sinewy", making it somewhat an overly chewy meal.Overall, a mediocre experience.

My husband and I had early dinners at the Vermont Tap House in Williston, Vermont on Wednesday, August 21st and Thursday, August 22nd, while we were staying in South Burlington. We enjoyed the steak and cheese sandwich, which was huge, the wood fire pizza, and the Green Mountain Salad, which was very fresh with Vermont grown ingredients. Everything was nicely prepared with generous servings. The selection of beers was also very good. . , The service was also quite good and the seating was comfortable in nice booths. In addition, there was free parking convenient to the restaurant. We found this restaurant a good alternative to dining in Burlington, where you have to pay to park and there may be heavier traffic.We recommend this restaurant for a variety of different entrees and would go back again.
