Barnard Inn Restaurant & Max's Tavern

Barnard Inn Restaurant occupies a brick building constructed in 1796 in Barnard, Vermont, where Chef Will Dodson has led the kitchen for more than 25 years. The restaurant is known for seasonal cuisine prepared fresh daily from local ingredients, an approach recognized when the restaurant was named Best Vermont Restaurant by msn.com in 2015. Guests can dine in the historic dining room or the on-site tavern, and gluten-free options are available at every meal. Beyond nightly dinners, Barnard Inn hosts private events, offering private dining rooms, personal chef services, and catering for holiday parties, weddings, and company celebrations, with menus tailored to each occasion.
