Ate here on a short overnight trip to Bennington! My burger was great and my husband's tabouli salad was tasty. THe best part was the beer! YUM!

Four of us ate here on a Sunday night, and there weren’t very many people there. Even so, service was a little slow. The food was good, and the portions were big. I had an open turkey sandwich with gravy, which was quite tasty, and a side of fries. For some reason, they put gravy on the fries. They tasted... More

It's a bar and pub with not so great pub food. My whole team was attending the Battenkill bike race in Cambridge, NY (April), so we didn't want overly expensive, but wanted decent quality. Bear in mind bike racers generally aren't too picky about their food, so surprised I find myself writing this. Selected this restaurant based on high TripAdvisor... More

The Madison Brewing Co. isn't a bad place but it's not a place I'd go out of my way to get to. I've been to all the breweries (some with restaurants) in VT except for three or four. It's a nice place and the service is good, but it's kind of a let down if you are a true craft... More

We stopped in at Madison Brewing while my wife and I were spending the night in Bennington. What a great place! A unique and varied menu, along with interesting specials made it difficult to choose. With the help of our awesome waitress, we ordered the brewers dozen, mussels in a garlic cream sauce for a starter. Excellent! We shared the... More

We stopped at the Madison Brewing Co on our way up to Stratton. Its located in the middle of town, storefront style. Very cute inside and seems to get a good lunch crowd. Large beer menu and good food specials. Food and service was very good. Would make a repeat visit.

We love Madison's alfresco dinning and tiki type bar. A few years ago we had the best dinner, libation and live music , so we keep going back in hopes to recapture. No dice this last time the food took forever, and was overcooked, the bartender was occupied with what could only be a favorite or special barfly to take... More

We were driving to Vermont for a ski weekend and my wife and I decided to stop for lunch, well I decided because of my love for craft and micro brews. I have never heard of this place before looking it up on the drive north. Thank Goodness we found it, good food, even better beer, and some service that... More
