A favorite among both locals and visitors to Burlington, The Farmhouse Tap and Grille is the perfect example of fresh farm-to-table food. Their outdoor beer garden is a great place to enjoy some local eats and drinks, offering a bevy of unique options on their impressive menu.

We suggest beginning with one of their appetizers, all boasting quippy names that give these starters even more flavor. Nobody Puts Baby in a Corner Beets take center stage with whipped chevre, shaved fennel, and other lavish beet toppings that seamlessly meld with the lemon-saffron vinaigrette.

Main courses bring the meal home, with offerings like quinoa cakes, a Carolina-style BBQ pork plate, and the best BLT you’ll ever eat. Don’t forget to pair your meal with one of the local beers on tap or a signature cocktail––the perfect accompaniment for outdoor dining.
