I used to eat here ever since they opened, but they keep raising the prices and lowering the quality. Since students are doing the cooking and serving, the quality of each will vary widely. Management responds to problems, but can't always fix them. I would say their food is just average, while Phoebe gives you a much better meal/experience for... more

I rate our dinners at the Main Street Grill & Bar highly! We are staying at a motel outside of Montpelier, VT to be close to cross country skiing in Stowe and found a sample menu for Main Street Grill & Bar online. While we are accustomed to lively apres ski meals, this was a very pleasant experience. Since this... more

We were pretty disappointed because we have eaten in the restaurants of culinary academies before and have had exceptional experiences. This one was just average (sometimes below). Our server was fairly inattentive and seemed a bit baffled by the whole process. Our food was okay, though it was clear my dish had been sitting under the warmer while waiting for... more
