I bet that Fairbanks paid for that mention.

I'm addicted to the breakfast sandwich at Stowe Octagon... hits the spot after first couple of runs.

Damn, Burke and Magic made the list!

I love Zip’s but that is ridiculous. BW has been doing a severely abbreviated menu at the base lodge pub. The restaurant doesn’t seem to run during the week at least. It’s nice, because you can order at the bar and sit in the restaurant near the windows, self seating. I’ve been avoiding people there so I like to have a couple of drinks standing at the corner window with the high counter, near that satellite bar. You can stare out the window at Mt Washington and watch the beginners area, which is highly entertaining.

Maybe Boston.com readers have lousy taste...

Agree w/ some of the Maine choices.
SL - Bullwinkle's and The Bag have both been great for many years !
SR - Mt Room & Cho Sun also both very good. But The Goggle & Sliders ?? Really ??? Average at best

This article misleading. Most of those places are base area, not on mountain.

Peak lodge at Killington has very good food. Unfortunately it is also quite overpriced.

I will say that both the Ramen bowl in the Carinthia Base Lodge at Mount Snow as well as the Noodle Bowls in the main base lodge at Stratton are quite tasty, and really hit the spot on a cold day for lunch

 

[MadPadraic]

Cannon's base lodge bar has a mac&cheese + chili dish (the Avalanche maybe) which is usually overkill, but is absolutely perfect if it's been one of those very cold and very exhausting days.

Agreed.

The menu has been simplified no more salmon special either. I still like the turkey chili on a cold afternoon.

So has Killington completed the new Killington Base Lodge or is it still sitting incomplete?

Incomplete but work is being done. Haven't been to K since around Christmas.

On the subject of actual on mountain food. On a very very cold day at Bretton Woods, my better half and I decided to do a sit down lunch at their mid mountain lodge around, say, 1:30. The service was slow, the place the freezing, and the soup was nearly as cold. This was also back when BW was trying to market themselves as a lux destination, but they certainly didn't measure up. Would not recommend.

When was this? Sounds like you were at the Top O' Quad (or whatever it is now called)

Latitude 44?

Latitude 44?

Yep. Just shows how long it has been since I’ve been there!

A decade ago I would guess. I think it was called Latitude 44, but I'm not sure. I vaguely remember several Mexican dishes on the menu.
