Driving Dinner Tours
While there are a few traditional downtown areas in the bigger towns of the NEK, much of the region is made up of a cluster of buildings forming that town’s core. This means many of our restaurants can’t be visited on a walking tour. But with the beautiful winter scenery here in Vermont, a driving tour is just as much fun. You can take in the glittering snow, the magical effect of snow coverent branches arching across a back road, and discover winter un along the way.
Below, we have featured these driving tours. There are more restaurants on each one than you can probably eat your way through on one trip – but this gives you options to choose from depending on the weather, day of the week, or your food preferences.
