“The food at Mary’s is legendary” Vermont Magazine. Since 1983 chef–owner Doug Mack has offered seasonally–changing, creative and eclectic menus with an emphasis on local products. Farm–fresh food from both our own gardens and small, local farms is the framework upon which our culinary magic is built. Follow the seasons of our gardens by the ingredients on our menu. Or better yet, stroll through the gardens before dinner and be tempted by your imagination and the flavors of Vermont. Menu offerings range from naturally–raised beef, lamb, venison and chicken to fresh fish and wonderful vegetarian selections.

Restaurant Hours

Dinner: Wednesday-Sunday from 5:30.  Reservations are accepted and often recommended, especially on weekends or in peak season.

Sunday Breakfast: 8:30-10:30. 

Doug Mack, Chef/Owner

You will find Doug in the kitchen every night preparing every dinner and overseeing a talented and equally committed kitchen staff which guarantees creativity and consistency. Our Cream of Garlic Soup has been our signature dish for over twenty-six years and is world renowned. Vermont Magazine rated it as “the best soup in Vermont”.

An integral part of our culinary mission is our connection with other dedicated food organizations. 

Vermont Fresh Network Doug was a founding member and first President of this statewide organization committed to building innovative partnerships among farmers, chefs and consumers to strengthen Vermont's agriculture.

Slow Food International  International organization devoted to protecting food and food traditions.  We represented Vermont Chefs at Slow Food's Terra Madre 2006 conference in Turin, Italy.

The Atmosphere at Mary's

Casual and comfortable. The Living Room, our largest dining room, is elegant with its many windows, white linen tablecloths and deep red walls. The Catamount Room is warm and cozy with pine walls and soft greens. The Summer Kitchen is rustic, romantic and very private with exposed beams and two full walls of windows.

Private parties from 8–45 guests are accommodated in any one of these dining rooms for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Farmhouse Dinner Series

Every July and August our Wednesday Farmhouse Dinners include one of our farm partners who hosts a complimentary appetizer table featuring their products. Partake of wonderful appetizers while meeting the talented farmer that produced the starting ingredients.

The Farmhouse Dinner Series culminates with our Feast of the Farms Harvest Celebration held annually in September. It is a gala affair in the Red Barn and under a glorious white peaked tent with live entertainment throughout the evening. All of our farm partners join us at the Harvest Celebration, serving their food, chatting with guests and enjoying a bountiful and festive harvest party.
