They sell gifts, silverware, cups, b owls, napkins, cutting boards, maple syrups from local spots (of course!), cookies, snacks, knickknacks, sodas, ice cream, and much more! Definitely worth stopping in! We bought a maple-leaf-shaped glass bottle of local syrup plus a maple soda, both of which were oh so incredible.

Weather got a little hariy getting there with the slushy roads, but we made it! It's pretty remote location with no street lights, so if driving in the dark look for the signs to get there and trust your GPS. There's a large parking lot across from the entrance to the little store/shop. The shop is actually the owners old family home I belive. We arrived pretty much at closing time, but we were still welcomed warmly. We got a cheese & maple syrup tasting which was yum and informative, and the staff member that did it was really nice, I forgot her name, but see photo below. One of the cheeses has won a cheese competition, very cool. We also got to meet the owner, but she was busy getting Christmas orders together. I perused all of the cheeses I wanted and settled on 4. We got to try 2 out of the 4 from the cheese sampling. The nice lady that checked me out even gave me some nice to-go samples as well. The smoked cheese was my fav, and the sage. But I enjoyed them all. I was able to easily fly home to TX with them due to the cold weather of the season. After the tasting, we got to peruse the store. They have so much other stuff to buy in additon to cheese and maple, tons of knick-knacks and gifts and merch. We didn't get to explore the farm after since it was pitch black when we left, too bad. Enjoy!

Some years ago I tried the maple syrup from Sugarbush Farms and never looked back. No other syrup…read morecompares and I always go out of my way to visit anytime I'm anywhere in the greater New England area! Sadly this year I didn't get to visit New England - but lucky for me Sugarbush ships nationwide!! So I tried it out and ordered some of their syrup and my fave cheeses. Ordering online via their website was super easy. I ordered my fave dark variety of their maple syrup and 4 cheeses: horseradish cheddar, jalapeño cheddar, sharp cheddar, and Monterey Jack. Their horseradish cheddar is my absolute fave - a wonderful kick of the spicy horseradish blends so well with their rich cheddar. I really love the jalapeño cheddar too - packed full of flavor with just the right amount of kick - not overwhelming but enough to taste it. The other two were great as well - you can definitely tell their cheeses are made fresh on site - flavors are just next level compared to industrial-manufactured cheeses from the grocery store chains. And the maple syrup is also in a league of its own - nothing mass-manufactured from any grocery chain holds a candle to the rich, complex flavors and velvety texture. The syrups also last quite a long time so I'm able to keep my stocks full yearly! Since I was ordering cheese with a long way to travel, and it was still quite warm in parts of the US, their website suggested adding one of their insulated shipping boxes for an extra fee of $8. I didn't want to risk ruining my cheese so I did and all arrived in excellent condition! They pack it in extra insulated styrofoam with ice packs. So it's definitely worth it imo. Next year I'll be in Maine in October so I'll definitely be planning an extra day or two to pop over to Sugarbush on my way back out haha!! See yall next fall!

What a wonderful concept....artisan made caramel sourced with goat's milk in the following flavors: Original, Vanilla Bean, Vermont Maple, Cold Brew Coffee, Spicy Dark Chocolate, Irish Whiskey Cream, Salted Bourbon, and Cinnamon. What I LOVE: That a Vermont Family raises their own goats, harvests the goats milk, teams up with other locally sourced entrepreneurs to create a variety of caramel flavors! They also offer locally sourced honey from a small batch raw honey apiary called Hera's Bees. Which sustainably harvests honey from their hives while allowing enough for each harvested hive to sustain itself through the cold Vermont winters! Thank you Judith for nicely packaging and sending me the Cold Brew Coffee Caramel and Hera's Bees Honey!

We were greeted by Judith's 3 dogs, what a welcoming! They wanted their ball to be thrown. One of the last reviews stated they were generally there 10-4 on weekends so we took a chance, and I am glad we did. Judith shared their story, invited us to check out the production facility just over the ridge and even go see the goats a few miles away at the goat creamery / dairy. I have always been a fan of caramel, but had no idea you could take it to this level of flavor. We bought the 2oz jar sampler packs to return home to Pennsylvania. The salted bourbon and Vermont maple caramels were my favorite, my wife enjoyed the cold brew caramel and cinnamon. We plan to cut up some fresh apples when we get home to enjoy of new found heaven and remember just how nice Judith was and how she shared a piece of her life with us. Vermont is a beautiful place!

I finally mde it to BJs, after skipping it last week due to weather. They were, not surprisingly,…read moreout of the protein bars I'd tried that had tasted really good. So, I settled for the best alternatives I could find, based on past experience and their current prices. But I really wanted something to satisfy a taste craving. And today, I found this popcorn. 'Cabot Creamery Seriously Sharp Cheddar Cheese Popcorn'. This packs amazingly strong cheedar flavor into popcorn. If you gave this to someone who's had Smartfood, or Wise White Cheddar, and asked them to compare them (I[ve had both of those) , it'd be a mind blowing experience for them. It's like the first time a Canada Dry ginger ale drinker tastes Schweppes for the first time. Or even better, a good ginger beer instead of ginger ale. It's just that muuch more real cheddar flvor. And BJ's sells a 15 oz. bag for 8 bucks, compared to the 4.5 oz. bags for around $4-$5 that other retailers carry for this brand, so it's a great value on price and quality. I'm not saying join Bjs to get it, but I am saying if you're a BJs member, this is popcorn you should try. If this popcorn had come out in 1985, Crocodile Dundee would have been the perfect spokesperson for it. "That's not popcorn. THIS is popcorn."

Family of 5 visiting on vacation...return visitors…read more All of the breakfast food was very well prepared and had great taste. The Sugar & Spice pancakes are always a must have for my son. I had an omelet off of the Specials menu with Pineapple, ham and mozzarella...Basically a Hawaiian Pizza but in an omelet. Very good, if you like Hawaiian Pizza. The home fries didn't have much color to them but we're actually cooked through and tasted good With a nice texture. The only draw back was our server, while efficient, had like in the way of people skills. Every interaction was as short as possible. Not bad, just not good. Lots of items to shop for if you are a tourist.

I've been coming to Killington for years in the summer. We most often eat at the Backcountry Cafe,…read morewhich is a good large hearty (but not heart healthy) breakfast restaurant. We finally decided to try out S&S and I found it good, but not worth the 5 stars everyone gives it pancakes = well cooked, round, pretty standard. don't get 4 pancakes unless you want be in a pancake induced coma. also, they put a literal small ice cream scoop size of butter on the pancakes. Only IHOP does that and it's way too much butter. If you are eating all of that butter, you might need an extra dose of lipitor. Toast = kind of boring S&S pancakes = kind of tasted like pancakes with cinnamon sprinkled on top. Home fries = those were good I was there with two 16-year olds who both thought the food was "mid". I did see a small girl sitting with plate in front of her that had a waffle with ice cream and whipped cream piled so high, that it was almost as tall as her. Her eyes were huge and she was trying to figure out where to start. That waffle looked pretty good and as I passed the table, her dad was leaning in to "help out and keep the plate clean". They sell a lot of baseball hats and t-shirts.

Good atmosphere, good food, good drinks…read more I had made a reservation for a table but had no problem getting a bar seat instead. I was there on a Tuesday and it was half priced oysters - what a thrill! My bartender made an excellent recommendation based on my preferences. Oysters were great and shucked at the bar. The mignonette was perfect. The beef tartare was marvelous - juicy meat, well balanced with the sauce and truffle chips. Triple crème was phenomeeeennnaalll. I shared that my doc is making me be gluten free and asked if there was anything that could serve as a sub. A server offered gluten free crackers (which were way tastier than they looked!). My only disappointment was that they didn't give me a heads up that the gf option was a $6 up charge. I know GF costs the restaurant, and I'm generally willing to pay a little more, but $6 for 15 crackers feels excessive!! The cheese itself was 10, I don't know that I would have added 50% to that item bc I can't eat the bread, and I would have liked the option of making the decision. Would return, but definitely want to give the heads up to my GF friends about the steep up charge.

We had the loveliest time here! We visited for their charcuterie workshop on a Sunday afternoon,…read moreand it was such a nice way to spend the afternoon. We got there early and were greeted by the most friendly workshop host/Dedalus employee, Brittany. They were still in the process of setting up the class, so we walked over to their little store/gift shop. I could've looked around in there for hours! They had so many unique and interesting things - panettone, gourmet chocolates, tin fish, meats, cheeses, gift boxes for the holidays, and much much more. The workshop we took was wonderful. It was lead by Brittany, their sommelier, and Dana, their cheese monger, and they taught us about different wine, cheese, and meat pairings to curate a holiday charcuterie board. The wines and cheeses they selected were divine and so delicious. I loved everything that they gave us, and they selected some pretty unique choices that I was worried I wouldn't enjoy. Everything was wonderful, and they gave us a lot of information about everything we consumed. This store is such a lovely spot and I wish I had something similar near me! It's cozy and classy, without being pretentious. Their sommelier knows so much about the wines they have and I never felt silly or stupid asking questions. She mentioned that she loves to ask customers about their preferences and budget and keeps a very open environment when people come in, and is able to select the best wines that suit them. I'm looking forward to coming back here the next time I'm in town!
