Village Garage Distillery

With decent food, terrific cocktails, and a wider range of dishes than anywhere else in Bennington, Village Garage Servicenter qualifies as an essential stop when you visit. A beautifully converted municipal vehicle depot, Village Garage sits near the center of town, and it's exactly what it's needed. The service is warm, knowledgeable, and attentive, the interior gorgeous. The distillery works is viewable from the dining area -- next visit we're going for the tour. Plus, you can bring some of the place home -- bottles of Village Servicenter's excellent vodka and whiskey are available for purchase.

We've been road tripping through Vermont for about a week. This was hands down the greatest hidden gem we encountered! The decor, ambiance, food and drink were levels beyond! I've had the bourbon, rye, and vodka. They're each my new favorites. From appetizers to desserts we were floored. Bacon maple ice cream brownies, omg! If you can get here, do yourself a big favor and get here.

Such a unique atmosphere, amazing wait staff, awesome drinks and outstanding food. The adult grilled cheese was so yummy. Will visit again 😊

We are really excited about this place. Can't wait to try everything. Stopped in and everyone is friendly and knowledgeable. The inside is spacious and well designed. Didn't get to have more then a few tasty drinks but what I did smell, smelled amazing. Great addition to downtown.

Enjoyed a delicious meal and the great environment at one of the newest eateries in town! We made reservations via the website (and even were able to adjust them with ease) and were promptly greeted by Alex when we arrived. Our waitress Jaime was attentive and explained the menu offerings, including some top notch recommendations. Pip and Adam were behind the bar and made the libations to perfection. The kitchen crew delivered our meals as ordered, all so fresh and savory! Highly recommend checking out the Village Garage, and don't forget the desserts and bottles of spirits to go (check out the Bonfire if it's still available!)
