Parker Pie (West Glover)
A true Kingdom Gem, with excellent pizza and pub fare, beer & wine, and events including live music, trivia, and movie nights. The Parker Pie Co. started as a small pizza shop in the back of the Lake Parker Country Store. While it is still a little pizza shop in the back of a country store, the quality of the food and the community atmosphere has turned it into a favorite eatery and pub for locals and seasonal clientele alike. The Parker Pie Co. is a foodie destination not to be missed. In addition to thefamous pizza, their revolving beer menu features both Vermont brews and the best fermented beverages from around the globe.
