Good food, nice place and very kind staff for a nice small diner tasting Vermont cheddar, blueberry bread pudding and a few other meals. Pleasant evening.

This restaurant is located right next to the Grafton Inn. Very charming and rustic in design – the inside is lovely as well. We were fortunate enough to be seated right next to a fireplace on a cold autumn evening. The food and beer were great. They also had a live performance as well.

This is real find in a great little town. Located next to historical Grafton Inn(see my review of this restaurant as well) & using the same kitchen, but much more casual, it is not only a great place to dine it’s a fun place as well. They have a varied menu which is big on local produce, ie, local cheeses & beer in s pub setting. The burgers are among the best to be had. The atmosphere is great & service outstanding. Had a local beer, 1801, which was very tasty. For entertainment they had a group of mostly senior citizens(I can relate) who came in to play some outstanding Dixie land style jazz which had the place rocking. All in all the food & fun was most entertaining evening.

Charming rustic restaurant in historic village of Grafton. Great beer list, two fireplaces, loft for music, board games, tv and computer. come for the Friday flatbread. We had surf and turf with shrimp bacon cheddar. it was delish. Burger blends elk beef and pork for a leaner yet more flavorful version. Fish n chips light and very good. Mac n cheese wasn’t really that great. Lacked a bit of flavor.

This is the warmest, coziest barn I have ever had a drink in. With the white lights strung across the rafters to the couches by the fireplace, this is true rustic charm. I could spend literally every evening in this place.

The hours at Phelp’s Barn kind of suck, but the place, itself, its kind of amazing. So warm and cozy and intimate while still being casual and upbeat. I tried the Caesar salad the the«meat» burger.(meat, in this case, equals pork, beef, and elk but on the menu it says«other meats» instead of elk). Both of these things were PHENOMINAL. And the BBQ with the burger… OMG. So good. This also seems to be the place the locals come to hang out when they’re open and that adds an additional liveliness. They share a kitchen with the Old Tavern but they only share a couple of dishes. Mostly, they are their own separate place with a very diffent feel. SInce they are affiliated with the inn, though, you can chrage your burger and grat to you room and deal with it later. Awesome. Exceptional.

Phelps Barn was a hidden gem! I did not expect such a cool space. The drinks were a little pricey but the live music and informal art gallery were very cool. It would be a great place for a medium to large group to spend an evening.

If you like quaint rustic place with good food, good drinks, good prices, and lots of charm then you have found the right review. The Husband chose this place as part of our day trip for our birthday’s this ear and he made a great choice. Phelps barn is part of the Old Tavern, and is a barn converted into a restaurant. It has a loft with some tables and seating and also has a room with a television, board games and a computer(for the younger generation of course). They have live music/entertainment on occasion and on this particular night a fiddler was scheduled to play. We didn’t know what to think of that exactly but in the end it was quite enjoyable. The place got quite busy about an hour before the fiddler was supposed to start so I was glad we got there early and were able to grab a table up in the loft. Some tables had 10 people around them. The staff was very nice about helping people find chairs and tables, even if they were little side tables from the room up stairs. Husband and I played a few board games while we drank and waited for a friend. The prices were good and the beer was local. The food was also well priced and very tasty. We had barbeque wings, Caesar salad, mac n cheese, Shepards pie, and carrot cake. Everything was delicious! I think my favorite though was the mac n cheese.(Husband and I shared meals because we couldn’t decide between the two!) Overall, it was a great night and I would easily return there. On Friday nights they have brick oven pizza’s and I’m sure they are amazing!!! The menu sounded delicious for them.

If you are looking for quintessential Vermont dreamy winter’s night bar/pub… this is just as good as it gets. Phelps Barn(with The Old Tavern, Vermont Cheese Shop, and the quaint surrounding town and lake) make it totally worth the windy detour to off-the-beaten-path Grafton. It was one of the sweetest highlights of my southern Vermont winter weekend with my boyfriend. This barn-converted-pub-restaurant glows with white lights hanging from the barn loft(where you can imagine Babe the pig once peering down) and the crackling fireplace on the first floor. Tastefully decorated in country crafts, with local craft beers(McNeill’s), local beef burgers and mac n’cheese(and entrees only around $ 9!) and to-die-for desserts. Order drinks and a few dishes, sit down at one of the antique chess-board tables next to the fire… and feel all your city-life worries melt away… Thanks to the support of the Windham Foundation, Phelps Barn is kept alive to show one of the beautiful social institutions of Vermont living. It doesn’t get any better than this!
