A last minute family gathering, eight people & a high chair, no reservation on a Friday night, that we didn't know was graduation night and they handled it with ease! The food was very good, large servings. We had some specials & regular entrees, all were good. Very nice variety at the complimentary salad bar. The only disappointment was the... More

Absolutely incredible on all accounts. Incredible location and interior (old train station), very friendly staff, and most importantly, outstanding food. Had Free range chicken special, the chicken was so perfectly cooked!! Service staff made the entire experience an A+. Thank you Bennington Station!!!!

We went back to have dinner at Bennington Station recently after having been there several years ago, and found it still a wonderful place to have dinner! It is a beautiful historical building, and we found there was an addition put on for banquet facilities. The food was excellent and the service very friendly. We hope to go back again... More

My four friends and I visited for lunch, recently . We thought the menu was interesting and it had a wide variety of items to chose from. The goat cheese and beet salad was very good as was the clam chowder and the lamb soup, the later was one of the specialties of the day. We noted the standard steak... More

I have been to this wonderful building many times and it always makes me smile how beautiful it is. The staff is efficient and friendly the food always worth the little extra I like to pay for a meal, but not outlandish. Thank you for a quite and friendly atmosphere, we will be back soon.

I like the fact that you are dining in a piece of history and not in some bland, suburban box. The food was good and it has a salad bar. I like salad bars, unfortunately they seem to have fallen out of favor from when I was a child.

My experience with the Bennington Station started out via email when I saw that the blog had not been updated since early November and I wrote to make sure they were still in business. I received a prompt reply and then a second one when I asked another question. I was impressed so we made our reservation for New Year's... More

This place is making an effort to put out decent food. Begins with an average salad bar, except: nice and surprising home made liver pate; a couple of inventive dressings. Had a seasonal squash soup. A little too sweet (end of the evening; as it cooked down the maple syrup became more prominent), but nice idea. Entrees well presented. Had... More

This big restaurant looks great from the outside, but the inside has blah atmosphere and blah food. Exceptions: fairly good clam chowder and a pretty good salad bar. Otherwise, meh.

Vermont is famous for it's small towns and local fare, and Bennington Station not only kept true to it's local flavors, but provided a gourmet dinner delight! Experienced chef, Robert, created one of our favorite travel meals during our first visit to the restaurant - and the state. Although I'm sure they're equally delicious, why order a simple steak, when... More
