A sampling of what Weston has to offer:  A $50 gift certificate to the Inn at Weston, A Whales in Vermont t-shirt, a sampling of dog and cat (Golden Retriever, Collie, Dachsund and a Tiger Cat) hand-blown glass Christmas tree ornaments from the Vermont Country Store, and two cds from the Brothers of the Weston Priory; Wisdom at Play and Pilgrimage of the Heart for you to enjoy.

The Inn at Weston offers a romantic, candlelit dining experience year round to house guests and the public alike. The dining room has an attached cozy pub with fireplace, fully stocked bar, and french doors which open onto a spacious deck and orchid-filled gazebo offering magnificent warm weather outdoor dining. The gazebo, mentioned as "the best table in Vermont" in a review by Vermont.com, has a single table for up to six people, and is frequently the site of special occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries. Live piano music is offered nightly, and requests from our dining guests are always welcomed!

The menu changes seasonally and is always based upon the availability of the freshest, and where possible, local ingedients. The Inn at Weston is a proud member of the Vermont Fresh Network.

Executive Chef Michael Kennedy and his culinary team prepare an unparalled Contemporary Regional Menu with such specialties as Grilled Boar Chops, Hempseed Encrusted Striped Bass, Sushi Maki Rolls with Fresh Ahi, Butter Poached East African Salt Prawns and, if you've saved room - Chai Spiced Creme Brullee for a finale, or perhaps Fresh Cherry Cobbler with Homemade Maple Ice Cream. The experience at the Vermont Restaurant Bar is enhanced by the warmth of the festive red floral wallpaper and candlelight and a Wine List recognized by Wine Spectator with its "Award of Excellence". Our cozy restaurant and bar with fireplace beckons with an array of after dinner drinks and single malt scotches. A sumptuous breakfast is served to our house guests.
Chef Michael uses the highest quality ingredients attained locally and internationally to provide guests with an exquisite and memorable dining experience like none other. His training in nutrition, and belief in the benefits of a healthy lifestyle, ensure that all of our dishes offer flavor and enjoyment without compromising nutritional integrity. Guests are surprised to learn that the rich and flavorful meals contain very little butter, heavy cream, or added sweeteners.

In the face of increasing concerns over the quality of foods being produced today, our restaurant has made a commitment to using only products and methods of preparation that we can be sure bear no risk of food borne illness. HAACP certified products, and small production facilities are preferred to large, mass production food companies. We attempt to attain much of our ingredients from local New England companies and farms to ensure sustainable community production for years to come.

And don't forget to visit the Vermont Country Store.  In 1945, Vrest and Ellen Orton printed their first catalogue - just 12 pages and 36 products - and mailed it to the folks on their Christmas card list. Vrest, a frugal Yankee at heart, insisted that the merchandise be durable and above all practical. His wife Ellen, who grew up on the Wilcox dairy farm in nearby Manchester, Vermont, made certain the new business was as practical as the products it sold.

Decades later, this still holds true as you can see from the hosts of products in our catalogue.  Catalogue orders came rolling in. To complement the fledgling mail-order business, Vrest and Ellen Orton opened The Vermont Country Store in Weston, VT, in 1946, inspired by childhood memories of Vrest's father's general store in North Calais, Vermont, which opened in 1897. The Weston shop was the first restored rural general store in the nation.
