It’s Worth the Ride to the Wayside!
We believe in providing our customers with the freshest foods, prepared with care. Enjoy a country-style breakfast, available all day, a quick business lunch, or a well-rounded family dinner. For your dining pleasure we also offer classic cocktails, beer and wine.
Our Bakery serves fresh-baked goods with every meal. How about a slice of cream or fruit pie for dessert, topped with ice cream from our Creamery? We serve farm fresh vegetables all year … locally grown in season.
We’ve been pleasing diners from near and far with our Yankee Cooking since 1918. Come on in and taste our home cooking for yourself. Try the Wayside just once and we are sure you’ll see why folks come again, and again.
“The Wayside is a jewel in Vermont’s culinary crown. The restaurant continues to exemplify what a taste of Vermont should be for tourists and locals alike.”
—Betsy Bishop, President, Vermont Chamber of Commerce
