Food Scene
This is a recommended first stop. Ask for Erin - one of our co-hosts! She can help guide you through some of the other areas in town.
In addition to lots of tasty beer that you can get in a tasting size, pizza can be pretty tasty here too.
Note that Farm Road closes early, so make sure this is an early stop.

Great brewery with tasty texmex pub grub. No TVs (which we like) but has got a dart board and some games, and a changing table in the bathroom for your kids.

Erin first learned how to ski here with her dad! Owned by Vail Resorts, Stratton has more of a destination feel.

Sightseeing
Largest structure in New England - get a ticket to ride up to the top and check out Bennington from a bird's-eye view. A nice walk from our house if the weather permits.
