    I’m deaf so unsure about noise level. I just wanted to note that our server Zach was fantastic. He completely understood the sarcastic humor happening at our table and he played along perfectly yet never losing professionalism while taking care of us. Everything was wonderful. I’ve wanted to dine here for years. My mother & grandfather often ate here together, as a tradition. They have both passed away so it was a bit of a tribute to them that day, and it met all my expectations. Well done…especially Zach. Great smile, manners, and service. And delicious food & drink. Thank you.

    Tasty, healthy food in a beautiful setting overlooking the Queechee dam and covered bridge. Very few high quality restaurants to choose from in the Hanover area, this is one of the top 3 around.

    Thankful the hostess took care of us because our waitress did not. Food was ok, portions are small. Well below average for what we paid and really disappointed in the quality. Ambiance can't be beat, but does not warrant a good review. Maybe go for an appetizer and a drink.

    Simon Pearce restaurant is a nice location and it's always fun to look at the pottery and glass in the shop. We had a lovely table overlooking the water. The food, particularly the duck, was good, but honestly seemed overpriced.

    Our waitress and serving team did an excellent job taking care of our party of six adults. Every appetizer, entree and desert was high quality and prepared well. My salmon was cooked perfectly, crisp sear with moist interior. The atmosphere is second to none, cantilevered over the river next to a falls, overlooking a covered bridge. Very picturesque.

    We live in Quechee and it is hard to get dinner reservations for our birthday and anniversary dinners. So, we were able to get a lunch reservation and it was every bit as good as dinner. Can’t go wrong at SP.

    We came to celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary. It was our first time, but several people had suggested this while we were in Vermont. We are so happy they did. Food and service were exceptional. I had the carrot soup and shepherd pie. My husband had the Vermont cheddar soup and lamb burger. We shared the pavlova for dessert. All delicious. We walked around outside afterwards and enjoyed the park and falls. We will return!

    Festive and refined, the restaurant at Simon Pearce put a smile on my face. The menu was a representation of the goods Vermont has to offer. Cheeses and meats are the focus but a vegetarian won’t be disappointed. The beers are local focused and don’t miss the bar area for a quick cocktail before dinner. All of the glass you encounter and use are created by Simon Pearce and are available for purchase at the attached flagship store. For a romantic dinner or to impress your group of friends Simon Pearce is a can’t miss in the town of Quechee.
