Since we have lived right outside of Stowe, Vermont for a few years, Ryan and I have had a chance to try some great food and see some amazing sights. A lot of you guys ask me for recommendations when you come to visit the area so I am slowly putting together a list of all of our favorite Stowe things!


The first restaurant I ever went to in Stowe when I first moved to Vermont five years ago was Idletyme Brewing Company. I am pretty sure that I went on one of the first days that they opened -- there had previously been a restaurant called Crop Bistro and Brewery in that location until it was taken over by owners of Michael’s on the Hill Restaurant in Waterbury Center, Michael and Laura. That is also another amazing restaurant in the area, but we will save that for another time!!! Anyways, Idletyme has definitely become one of my favorite restaurants in Stowe over the years, and I especially love eating there in the summer! They have the cutest outdoor patio in the back yard with a wrap around bar and strung lights making for a beautiful ambiance. But don’t worry if it isn’t nice enough weather to sit outside because the inside is stunning as well!

I most recently went with my mom and we were lucky to have a gorgeous, sunny day, so we sat outside and enjoyed their amazing menu! We opted to share a beautiful salad with goat cheese, blackberries and walnuts for our appetizer as well as a bowl of their Edamame (ate it too quickly to take a photo HAHA!). For our main courses I had the Tuna Poké Bowl with avocado (YUM!) and she had the Pub Burger! SO DELICIOUS! Let me know if you check it out when you are in Stowe, Vermont!

ABOUT ME
Tezza-4812.JPG

Hi, I’m Alexandra — a travel advisor, content creator, and chronic trip planner who believes the best trips don’t have to be the most expensive ones.
 

I created this blog to share the places I love, the things actually worth doing when you get there, and the hotels, restaurants, experiences, and travel finds I’d recommend to a friend. My travel style is a mix of beautiful stays, really good food, a little adventure, and finding those places that make you immediately want to plan another trip.
 

Here you’ll find destination guides, realistic itineraries, hotel and restaurant recommendations, travel tips, and affordable style for wherever you’re headed next. I’m especially interested in experiences that feel special without requiring an unlimited budget — because a great trip is about knowing where to spend, where to save, and what’s actually worth your time.
 

After years of planning my own trips and sharing them online, I’ve also turned something I genuinely love doing into part of my job. As a travel advisor, I can help plan your trip, recommend where to stay, build a personalized itinerary, and take some of the endless research out of traveling.
 

When I’m not traveling, you’ll usually find me planning the next trip, at a concert, trying a new restaurant, outside somewhere, or convincing myself that booking another flight is completely reasonable.
 

Consider this your shortcut to traveling better — without overcomplicating it.
 

Ready to go somewhere?

Let’s plan your next trip.
