The food is always delicious, dependable. As spring returns and COVID fades, I'll look forward to their wonderful expanded menu. There's always something unusual.
Always an enjoyable experience at two brothers! Great selection of beers on tap and delicious food.
We went on a Sunday night and we're the only people in the restaurant. This place would probably be good if you eat animal products. They made such a big deal on their website about how accommodating they are for vegetarians and vegans but my only options were fries, brussel sprouts, and a Beyond Burger which I don't care for. No cocktails, just beer and wine. The food was expensive but the service was very good and it's local ingredients. Not bad overall, just after looking at their website I thought they would have more plant-based options so I was bummed out.
Excellent in every way. Very well spaced tables so it felt safe during this pandemic.
Great food, prompt service, and overall a great dining experience!!
I haven't visited the place as frequently as I'd hoped to. With that being said, I highly recommend going. The food was delicious, the service was outstanding and other then a draft from a nearby window the atmosphere was wonderful.
Excellent service and staff took strict covid precautions (our server wore gloves and asked for contract tracing info). We felt very safe eating there with our baby. Food was very good- fries portion is large and wings were tasty. Would definitely return!
Great food and service nice and cozy in the pub area
Amazing staff and excellent food as always...thanks for staying open.

We had a delicious meal at Two Brothers. The staff was friendly and attentive. It was quiet
Salmon entree was excellent. Pizzas are very good. Nice beer selection.
Food, as always, was great. Recommend the grilled salmon. Staff very friendly.
Super great service and excellent processes in place to keep us safe in strange 2020. With college kids stuck on campus, give these folks some business - all restaurants need it! - and here you will be safe and have a great meal.
It is always a nice meal at Two Brothers. And good beer on tap!
Wonderful dinner. I would definitely recommend dining here.
Always outstanding. And we ate outside so the "noise level" category doesn't fit.
Greet service, drinks and food. Highly recommend!
Always very good and it never disappoints. Service was outstanding!
Great place, great food, great drinks and great service!
Clearly in over their head with managing the front end with limited seating capabilities. While I fully empathize and support business trying to survive these COVID times there is really no excuse for the poor customer experience we had. We had a reservation and were told we really shouldn’t have been able to make one through Open Table since it was supposed to be shut down. The host was flustered and overwhelmed by the multi tasking, but even so was moderately attentive (I use moderate generously here). Whomever seemed to be “managing” was horrible. Twice he called us in for our reservation only to leave us standing there unattended to for over 20 minutes each time. He was flustered inefficient, not friendly and generally dismissive. In their defense it was a busy Friday evening, take-out was hopping and they seemed severely short staffed. Had we not been desperate for a good meal (just came off 2 weeks of hiking) we would have left. It was really inexcusable. If unable to handle the crowd they should not have continued to act as if they could. On a good note, the wait staff was pleasant and efficient and the food was good. Probably should have been clued in that this manager was in the wrong profession when we approached the restaurant and he was standing outside talking to someone referencing something on the ground being his underwear he found from last night. Seriously. It’s unfortunate because this place could have a lot going for it. My advice.... stay away until post-COVID or until this manager gets his act together ,and realizes what the term customer experience means.
Simple pub fare that was good to very good; fun vibe atmosphere and friendly, prompt service.
My “spicy “ margarita (which was terrible) had about a half dozen fruit flies in it . The food was pretty good and our server was really attentive. We sat at a table that was in the front of the restaurant and the windowsill was littered with dead flies. Needless to say we won’t be back anytime soon.
Excellent as always! Forgot to bring our left overs home though, so sad.
Great food great service great staff
Great Carbonara! Would definitely recommend and will be back!
The service and food were great. The waiter came and set up an umbrella for us when the rain hit (we were outside seating).
We had to move inside because of bad weather, but got a table right off. Inside there were two loud screaming kids who were standing on furniture and running around. It was find since they were young and didn't know much better, but the parents didn't try to quiet them down at all. After they left a old white man sat with another white man and was talking very loudly. He was talking about politics, the virus and women's sexuality in an appropriate manner. He said if you "look at the demographics the virus is God's way of leveling the playing field." The other old man, who the bartender referred to as his dad, said something about Kamala Harris and the other loud white old man said "of yeah you mean that lesbian like Warren?" He kept repeating lesbian loudly. He referred to the bartenders father as a "scholar" which led me to believe he might work for the college. I was shocked the staff let them go on so loudly and be so extremely inappropriate and rude. Most of the patrons looked disgusted and the family next to use muttered the place was "hell". It's too bad because the waitstaff were awesome and the food was excellent, but the entertainment was grotesque. Given the men were somehow related to or affiliated with the bartender I would assume anyone who visits for dinner will be subject to their loud rhetoric.
Excellent service, very good food. Something for everyone’s tastes.
Stopped in on my day off/sole resupply for a Southbound thru-hike of the LT. Probably the highlight of the entire trail! Despite COVID precautions, service staff was incredibly warm, welcoming and attentive. Our dog loved the outdoor area, the beer selection was the best in town and the food was exceptional. If I am ever back up in Middlebury this will he my first stop
Me and my wife use to go here a lot years ago. When we went the other day I was not impressed with the food. It seems like they got a new cook or something. But the food is not what it used to be
A lovely meal on the outdoor tables in the shade by Otter Creek Bakery. The service was prompt and excellent, the food was very good. Cocktails arrived quickly and were very refreshing (Mojitos for a hot day), gazpacho was good and the pizza 'bones' were delicious.
Our waitress was very good and very accommodating!
