About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
The Grafton Inn is a proud supporter of Vermont’s pioneering farm-to-table philosophy. Our historic inn and two restaurants in southern Vermont offer on-site dining year-round and feature locally-sourced ingredients prepared by food-loving professionals to create timeless, hearty dishes that will please any palate.

The Phelps Barn, originally a carriage house for guests' horses, provides a unique and rustic VT dining experience. Even the hayloft has been repurposed and renovated, providing an elevated seating area as well as our 8-tap bar. It is a fast pace restaurant with live music usually scheduled on the weekends.

If you are looking for a quieter space to have dinner or celebrate a special occasion, we would recommend our 1801 Tavern located inside the Main Inn. This historic space provides a cozy and elevated dining atmosphere. Within the 1801 Tavern you’ll find our recently renovated Pine Room Bar with a working fireplace.

    This review is for a bit more than just the dinner we had as we stayed at the Grafton Inn for a wedding weekend that was held there. We experienced the hospitality of the entire staff for breakfast, lunch, and dinner multiple times and at each time, the staff was amazing and the food was delicious. From the welcoming hostess, to the lively bartender, and the ever present with a smile wait staff who took care of our every need (especially Sara and Lisa!), we enjoyed all of our interactions that they served up for us. The variety of food we enjoyed at the Phelps Barn and the Tavern was unique, delicious, and always on point. The chefs and cook staff should be commended for their skills not only on the exceptional food they prepared but the speed and manner in which they provided it. All things considered, it was an outstanding experience in dining and hospitality from a collaboration of professionals set in the most charming locale. THANK-YOU!

    We had a wonderful dinner. We had a two year old and six year old. The staff was very welcoming and luckily the children ( and adults) behaved. The food was great, although the portions were large.

    They messed up our reservation. Requested a higher table and higher sitting chair because of my back. However they did not have that thus we sat at the bar which had higher sitting chairs.

    A little confusing to fine the right door because the place has like 4 names. But it's the barn next to the Inn. Beautiful setting, great service, amazing food and drinks. Definitely recommended!
