Most Popular Steakhouse food in Manchester, Vermont, United States
Find out what Steakhouse restaurants to try in Manchester. Nestled in the heart of the Green Mountains, this former iron-mining town today is the quintessential Vermont getaway, complete with a white steeple church, antique shops and cozy country inns. Manchester is a true all-season destination. In winter, skiers arrive to hit the downhill slopes at nearby Bromley and Stratton Mountains or the cross-country trails at Hildene. Spring and summer bring hikers who can opt for easy treks through Merrick Forest or more challenging ones like Prospect Rock, a three-mile hike, mostly uphill, that offers a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains as reward to those who make it. Manchester fly-fishing is also a popular pastime, drawing enthusiasts from around the country who come to learn or hone their skills. Big name outlet stores in Manchester Center draw shoppers year-round. In the fall, it's all about foliage. Enjoy the vibrant colors from a canoe on the mighty Battenkill River, a bicycle along a scenic path or kick back and take it all in from a comfy rocking chair on the porch of a historic inn. No matter what your vantage point, the show is always spectacular.

This restaurant was recommended to us by one of the staff at Hildene, the Lincoln family estate. The food and service were beyond superb. The atmosphere is very relaxing as well. We told our server that we were very hungry and he made sure that our food was delivered quite promptly and it was ALL delicious. The meal started with a cranberry muffin, followed by warm fresh rolls, salad, entree and dessert. Overall a GREAT experience. Highly recommend this restaurant.Michelle,Mission accomplished!!! Your review affirms that we have reached our goal of serving fine food and drink and providing friendly service all in our historic Tavern. Thank you for listening to the folks at Hildene and dining with us.Please do not forget us and come back as soon as possible.Cheers!Michael

Letâs start with the fact they call this place a taproom. There isnât anything except a small corner turned into a bar. We spent over a $100 for sheer mediocrity. I ordered salad bar and beef barley soup. $18. Salad bar was the equivalent of Golden Corral. A lightly poured glass of Chardonnay was another $10. My husband ordered wings for an appetizerâ- sorry no wings on a Friday night He the ordered scallops. To be specific 6 small scallops with white rice, the same carrots that are in the salad bar and plain steamed green beans. Nothing nothing to discuss other than the $34 price tag. That and a beer got us a tab for over $100 including tip for again a very mediocre waitress who was unsure of herself and forgot to put in his clam chowder. HUGE Huge disappointment. Over priced and not worth a penny. I donât care how many wine awards you may win. You have been warned. Hi Phoebelove. We really take it to heart when we get a "bad" review, because it is an opportunity for us to learn and grow and to improve our process. We agree that the scallop dish needed some work, so we took it off the special menu weeks ago. I could go on about how the rest of your review makes no sense to me, but everyone is entitled to their opinion and I am sorry that your experience did not hit a homerun for you. Do give us another try, because this is not the norm. ~ Nancy

Pricey, yes, but the food really delivers. The scallops, ribeye, and lamb were standouts. Our server, Ray, was really wonderful! There is one good red wine that isn't a fortune: a 2012 La Rose St Emilion--still marked up as all restaurant wine is, but probably the best quality for the price at $65. Don't stay at the Equinox; stay somewhere less pricey and spend your cash at the restaurant. Worth it.
