The Dorset Inn

It has been years since last dinner at the Dorset Inn, and while the property has changed over time, the ambience, food and service are still very special. My wife and I celebrated the anniversary there last night. The salmon and pork dishes were excellent, the waitress was extremely attentive, and the environment is every bit as cozy and warm as we remembered. Thanks for a wonderful meal and we certainly don't leave so much time before we visit again.

As a local living in the area, I have gedimt at the Dorset Inn for over ten years. I rarely post reviews, but in this case, because I hope the restaurant will try to improve its food and service. This place was a treasure for me, and over the years we have celebrated birthdays, holidays and anniversary by treating ourselves for a special dinner there. After a particularly devastating experience last Saturday, I am not sure if I return. Like all companies in this area, they have increased their prices and I understand that based on inflation. But increasing prices, decreasing portion size for the run of meal products such as Caesar salads with boxes, tasteless crumbles small now $14 , a very watery pasta dish $30 along with very inconspicuous, bordering on ruin, service with our specific server, does not make sure that a loyal local client will continue to protect it. The server seemed miffed that we didn't order a lot of alcoholic beverages, shattered when we asked if they could light our table candle, flew one of the orders, didn't bring water to fill our glasses or bring bread, despite the bread plate and bread knife on the table, that a clamp have removed them now? .The restaurant, which as someone who cooks and bakes a good deal at home, delivered well-designed dishes that are priced, with a beautiful dining room and a charming tavern, as well as strong service. I believe it was bought by new owners sometime in recent years, and they did not maintain the strong standards that made this one of the best places in our region to enjoy a special meal.

I had breakfast here after staying at Barrows House. It was delicious and the staff was very friendly and easy to go.

Dorset is charming every season. The autumn colors broke over Vermont this year. The visit of the Dorset Inn at a crunchy fallday for dinner makes it special. The food is delicious!

Got dinner reservations on the patio at 715 pm with a post heater by our table (alternate inside times were 430 and 830). Food was good, but would have liked closer restaurant to where we were staying.
