Our cozy dining room has quiet booths, a vibrant fully-stocked bar with 100+ bottle wine list, and a fireplace on those cold winter days.

great menu, great wines. They must have a great chef. OK, 50 characters required, so, nice people, excellent salad, soups, pasta.

We stayed at the Green Mountain Inn for 2 nights and had such a bad dining experience on our first night that we made a reservation for Harrison's for our second night. I am so pleased we did. The food was excellent as was the service. We have been travelling around New England and the food here was by far... More

We visited Harrison's on a Sunday night. I had made reservations in advance and was glad I did, because there were people wandering around Stowe that evening without reservations who couldn't find a place to eat. Overall, it was a very good meal. I opted for the chicken which was roasted crisp, but juicy in the middle and served on... More

This is a very small property located right in downtown Stowe. It came highly rated so we decided to try it out. The food was excellent, although the selection was rather limited. Service was fine. Being such a small place, the tables were quite crowded and close together. It is also in the basement, so no view. Recommended for a... More

Although we have stayed at the Green Mountain Inn many times, this is the first time that we have eaten at Harrison's which is right across the street from the inn. It won't be our last. We both had the Chicken Piccata. It was scrumptious -- the best we have ever had. The mashed potatoes were so good that I... More

I read about Harrison's on the TA site so when we found it was right across from our hotel, the Green Mountain Inn, it was the obvious choice for our one night in Stowe. Everything we ordered was great and we loved the cozy atmosphere. It's not very big so a good idea to make a reservation.

probably the best restaurant in Stowe. Atmosphere is warm and cozy, food is exceptional. Service is always superb. Need a reservation or take chance to get a seat at the Bar which is always fun.

A local family-owned “sure-bet”, Harrison's can be found smack in the center of town, tucked in behind the TD Bank and next door to someone's Aunt Betsy (somewhat creepily, the restaurant's entrance looks on to a cemetery). Once you get over the fact that you're about to dine in a basement (never my first choice), this Stowe favourite has a... More
