My family and I had a short day trip in Bennington. It was my first time in Vermont and l really…read morewanted to try a creemee. Through our adventures in Bennington, we eventually found our way to the Apple Barn. Such a cute stop for some souvenirs and treats. We ended up coming by about 90 minutes before closing. As we headed toward the back of the shop to see if they were selling creemees, we saw they had samples of apple donuts out. They were tasty, but definitely could tell they were made earlier in the day as they were not too fresh. We assumed they were probably trying to clear out their inventory for the day. We eventually found the soft serve machine and ordered a maple creemee. I should start by saying that I'm not a big fan of maple, but if I'm going to try a Vermont creemee, I had to order a maple one. It was perfect, great texture and just a hint of maple taste. My husband asked to try it and he ultimately claimed it as his own, so we ended up buying a second one. So good! Service was okay. We got a weird vibe from the lady who was helping us. She seemed annoyed and very short while we were checking out the food and trying to order our creemee. Maybe because they were going to close soon? Not sure. But that was the only negative about our experience. The Apple Barn is definitely a cool spot to visit if you find yourself in Bennington. You can definitely get some tourist shopping/souvenirs and enjoy some treats while shopping. We would definitely come back if we found our way in Bennington again.

Fresh, flaky, buttery, flavorful, made with local ingredients... everything you could possible want. Luckily I went to her home micro-bakery at opening time and there was a good selection but I understand she does sell out. You can also pre-order on her website. It's obvious that Wendy June aka "Fern" puts a lot of love and care into what she bakes. Easy parking at the old train station parking lot across the street. If you're in the area this is a must visit!

Everything is sweetened with maple sugar and locally sourced fresh cream, and it makes a massive difference in the taste. Seriously, these scones are next-level delicious, and the flavors are so creative and tasty. I had a Lemon Curd & Currant Moon Scone, a Speculoos Orange Spice Moon Scone, and a Maple Pecan Cinnamon Moon Scone. All of them were delectable, but the Maple Pecan Cinnamon was my favorite - I had a bite after we drove off headed back home, and I fully considered driving back and buying the rest of them. We come to Vermont a couple of times a year, so we don't live in the area, but I loved this micro-bakery so much, I signed up for emails - and I fully plan on making moonscones a pit stop during our next trip.

A pleasant cruise in the countryside and about 45 minutes later we arrived at this food cart in the driveway. There were only 1 couple ahead of us in line, and this gave us time to look over the menu board to see what they got. Chose about 8 or items and paid for it. People were nice and pleasant. Line started to build up behind us. All the donuts we had were great. Donuts were cold but it's cold outside. Tasted fresh. Filled donuts were filled all the way with tasty fillings. Overall flavors were on point. The one ham and cheese croissant was tasty once we warmed it up in the microwave at home. Really like the pistachios cream donut. Worth the trip. Probably can't do much of this though as I am sure donuts is not good for the diet but donuts do make me happy.

Some items are extremely expensive for what you get, but there are reasonable options. The house-made hummus and curried chickpeas are good values. Breads vary widely. Service can be slow at times, but they don't claim to be a convenience store. Given the extreme difficulty of hiring reliable help these days, I think they do a good job with what they have. Would be five stars if they had some less expensive pre-made or MTO sandwiches.

While it's very nicely arranged inside, I wouldn't go out of my way to stop in. They did sell some refrigerated items like cheeses and pasta. I'd hoped to see more local items. One half of the shop seems to be the bakery area. There were baked goods like croissants and macarons that were uncovered in that area of the store. This didn't make me want to try anything. My mom got a cookie last time she was in and wasn't impressed. The store actually had quite a few people shopping and only one employee who was running back and forth between the shop half and the bakery half of the store. This store has potential- I think if the quality of the baked goods improves, this could be somewhere I'd want to visit more often. If you're in the area checking out Small Song (a terrific store), it's worth stopping in here as well.
