First off… I LOVE Chester, such charming town! the Alice Restaurant is in a lovely old house and was charming also. It was Saturday evening and we expected a wait… but were surprised to be seated immediately on a cozy patio with view of the common. Our waitress was a doll, friendly, talkative and helpful! She shared an insiders view... More

the service was great too. I had a stuffed sole and my wife had a nice salad. We were both well satisfied with the food and the price. It was a chilly night and they seated us in a nice cozy warm location.

We stopped by for lunch on a snowy saturday afternoon. Alice's is a cozy spot located at the Common in quant Chester, Vt. Had a great lunch off the appetizer menu. Loved the grilled portobello mushroom cap with smoked ham, spinach and balsamic glaze topped with fontina cheese and garlic. The crab cakes and onion soup were good, too.

This restaurant is a gem. Beautiful building houses this quaint bistro which has fantastic food. The menu offers diverse selections and the waitstaff is extremely helpful. Definitely stop in if you are in the area.

Alice's very special chef takes great pride in presenting dishes that reflect the use of high quality and fresh ingredients. The menu is extensive and the daily specials should not be overlooked. No need to eat anywhere but Alice's while in Chester.

We stopped in for a late lunch and everything about the experience was terrific. Atmosphere was very pleasant: light and cheerful on a heated sun porch, cozy and nicely lit in the main dining room and by the bar. Our food was excellent: a Southwest salad and a cheesesteak wrap. A side of coleslaw was flavorful and unusually colorful. The... More

Two of us stopped here on our way through Vermont. It had interesting food and local beer, but the service was slow. We had onion soup, which was great, and a very good flatbread with eggplant and spinach. There was only one server so that might have been a fluke. I liked the atmosphere and I liked being able to...

Went to Alice's Restaurant recently and was not impressed. The past few times we have been there it was okay, but was very disappointed this last visit. The clam chowder was flavorless, and the clams were chewy. I ordered the Seafood Trilogy which consisted of shrimp, scallops, and clams, with cheese tortellini in a tomato basil sauce. Again, it was... More

Just a delightful Victorian venue with an enticing menu and a very friendly staff On the Green in Chester, Vermont. The eggplant appetizer was plentiful for a delicious lunch with an apple/cranberry crisp for dessert and a lovely cup of tea, turned a rainy day into a cozy, warm delightful respite from sight-seeing and shopping.
