Craftsbury General Store (Craftsbury)

A Craftsbury Staple! The beloved General Store is stocked with amazing local produce, a wide array of natural foods, extensive beer roster, and the best wine selection on this side of the Atlantic. But the real kicker here is their amazing menu of to go sandwiches and salads during the days, and a globally inspired menu of takeout dinners for you to enjoy at home or in a Highland Lodge cabin hot and ready or prepacked for you to reheat at home. Our personal favorite is the Banh- Mi sandwich paired with a refreshing Yerba Mate. On Sundays the General Store offers freshly made donuts from Local Donut LLC!

Parker Pie (West Glover)

A true Kingdom Gem, with excellent pizza and pub fare, beer & wine, and events including live music 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 the famous pizza, their revolving beer menu features both Vermont brews and the best fermented beverages from around the globe. Grab a 'za to go and enjoy at your cabin or pull up a seat at their bar and enjoy a brew or two. The outdoor seating area is charming and great for spreading out with large groups and/or kids!
