Vermont is full of tasty eateries. We have classic diners, quirky roadside stands, and colorful cafes. With all of these choices, it can be hard to choose a spot to dine out. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion, then we highly recommend this waterfall restaurant in Vermont. With world-class views and cuisine to match, the Mill at Simon Pearce is just the spot to take someone special.

Located in a restored 19th-century mill overlooking a waterfall, The Mill at Simon Pearce is simply stunning no matter what time of year. The Ottauquechee captivatingly tumbles by in the warmer months and creates glorious ice formations in the winter.
