This spot has been here ever sine I was a little kid visiting VT with my parents and it is the best spot to put on the things to do list. It sits on the edge of the river near a water fall that actually powers this old mill. Simon Pearce glass and pottery is well known around the country, but this is where it all started from a smaller shop to a huge shop with a restaurant and a workshop. There is even a place to watch the glass getting blown, the pottery being made and a workshop for kids. You can also eat by the windows overlooking the river and this place is so large, it will take you many hours to view all the glass pieces and pottery. There is a seconds area upstairs as well. The pieces arent cheap so bring your pocket book, but they are worth it. This is one of the better spots to stop in well in central VT. I highly recommend it!

Located on the Ottaquechee river, the Simon Pearce Mill offers a unique experience. Plan your morning or afternoon with the family, or a romantic evening at this one-of-a-kind destination. For lunch, make sure you plan to arrive some time in advance to get your name on the wait list and then tour the facility and observer master glassblowers and potters at work. Then browse the retail store where you can shop the best of their work - glass and pottery designed by Simon Pearce. Finally, enjoy a delicious and affordable lunch with a view of the waterfall and the covered bridge. The view is magnificent and changes with the seasons. Among my family and friends' favorites are the lamb burger and the soups. The cuisine is delicatessen "New American" with an Irish accent. The evening offers an ideal romantic ambience in a unique and different environment. The chef prepares an award winning menu. Make your selection of wine among an extensive list of sumptuous wines. The fact that you drink and dine with Simon Pearce glass and pottery makes this experience even more special. Reservations are strongly recommended for dinner. As wine lovers, we also regularly attend the monthly wine dinners which start in November (I think...) and last for about six months. It is a must and worth the drive! We always look forward to our next visit.
