Mary's Restaurant

About Mary's Restaurant

Since 1983, chef-owner Doug Mack has offered seasonally-changing, creative and eclectic menus with an emphasis on local products. Farm-fresh food from both our own gardens and small, local farms is the framework upon which our culinary magic is built. Follow the seasons of our gardens by the ingredients on our menu. Or better yet, stroll through the gardens before dinner and be tempted by your imagination and the flavors of Vermont. Menu offerings range from naturally-raised beef, lamb, venison and chicken, to fresh fish and wonderful vegetarian selections. An integral part of our culinary mission is our connection with the Vermont Fresh Network. Doug was a founding member and first President of this statewide organization committed to building innovative partnerships among farmers, chefs and consumers to strengthen Vermont's agriculture. The Vermont Fresh Network helps Vermont farms and restaurants team up to provide the freshest local food at restaurants. You will find Doug in the kitchen every night preparing every dinner and overseeing a talented and equally committed kitchen staff which guarantees creativity and consistency. And every local will tell you, a visit to Mary's must always include our famous Cream of Garlic Soup. This soup has been our signature dish for over twenty years and is world renowned. In 2004 Vermont Magazine rated it as "the best soup in Vermont." Plan to start dinner with this creamy, deeply satisfying soup. And then do like the locals do, purchase it by the quart for take-home!
