Whetstone Station Restaurant

On a trip to Brattleboro, Vermont early in the summer we found a very unique restaurant and brewery called “Whetstone Station”. Whetstone Station is located on the Connecticut River right on N.H./ Vermont border. In fact, the state line goes right through the restaurant. You can drink beer in both states at the same time. We in fact did just that!

Whetstone Station has a beer garden where they have 60 craft beers. Although we were not there for the beer, but for lunch, we sat in the dining room area of the restaurant. With beers in hand, Jim and I both decided on getting hamburgers for our lunch.

I had the French Onion Au Gratin burger. This is served with Vermont cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, French onion dip spread, onion, lettuce, and tomato. (13.99) If you like onions you will enjoy this creation. I enjoyed this burger. The burgers also come with fries, but both Jim and I upgraded the regular fries to the Station Fries. Station Fries are hand-cut potatoes tossed with chive oil and Parmesan cheese. I loved the fries…so crisp and full of flavor.

Jim had the John Wayne burger (13.99). The John Wayne burger has a lot going on. The burger has Vermont cheddar cheese, maple smoked bacon, beer BBQ sauce, onion rings, lettuce, tomato, and onion. Although Jim liked this burger it was overdone for him… definitely well done.

Whetstone Station is a great place to dine with gorgeous views of the Connecticut River, but they also have a food truck called the “Rollin’ Stone”. Not only did we eat at the restaurant, but the campground we were staying in was having a BBQ fest the following day. The “Rollin Stone” was serving not only beer but the most amazing poutine we have ever had. We ordered a small order to share as we were having other BBQ items as well. We devoured the first order and decided we needed another order…they really were that good. I should mention the people that own Whetstone, also owns the campground.

Let me tell you a bit more about that tasty poutine. It’s called “Midnight Poutine” (6.99). it starts with the hand-cut fries with beer-battered cheese curds smothered in gravy. That right, there is a bit of heaven.

If you find yourself in Brattleboro, you can find Whetstone Station Restaurant at 36 bridge Street. The restaurant opens daily at 1130 am. For more information go to their website as they have their full menu and beer information on it as well as more information as to how the state line goes through the restaurant. Give them a like on Facebook and don’t forget to keep an eye out for the ‘Rollin Stone’ food truck!

Enjoy!
