Read where breakfast was free with your stay for $575 for 2 nights one free breakfast nothing spectacular by any means, the website shows rooms that aren’t what they are now the food was over priced and not good service was very slow at restaurant with only one other couple in there besides us 1.5 hr wait order messed up twice doors open mosquitoes and bugs landing in drinks etc. screen door at entrance broke only closes partially sitting in lobby swatting off mosquitos, the room was a stiff mattress cheap poor quality linens and the sound of trucks roaring starting at 430am we where in green mountain room toilet handle had to be fumbled with to get to stop running soap scum on shower walls...
The wait staff is on it! They really know their business and go out of their way to make every visitor feel special. Ambience is really fantastic. Food is great. It should be noted that there are very few ways to cook scallops well and Waybury nailed it. Filet Mignon is fantastic. One last note, if you go and don't get the Maple mascarpone cheesecake, you are cheating yourself. The food is a little pricey but you'll get what you paid for. I went once with my dad and stepmom and then we all just had to go back a week and a half later to treat an out of town friend to the experience.Did I mention the wait staff is great? What a great bunch of people they have on staff. I hope management works...
We had reservations for seven and our table wasn't ready so we said we get drinks at the bar. We quickly realized that they only had one waitress, one bartender, and the front manager for the inn. We were seated at a lovely patio and the manager said that she would get us some water and our drink orders. My friend saw drinks on the bar melting so she brought them to the table . two of us ordered eggplant Parmesan. Unfortunately the eggplant wasn't cooked and my friend could stick a fork in it like it was a flag pole. Our waitress was very embarrassed but also thought it was funny. She gave us complementary desserts and coffee the problem with this inn is they were very understaffed and shoul...
I totally stayed here because of Newhart, and yes, I 'm a few decades less than 70 years old. I had never been to Vermont, and when I had the opportunity to go, I found the Waybury Inn when looking to see if it were possible to stay in the Stratford Inn. It was!You can book online in their website is over the phone. I guess you can use travel sites too, but I like booking direct. I chose the Woodland Room. It had a dancing bear, plaid theme. It was great.Breakfast was very good. People were helpful with suggestions of what to do in the area. I was driving to Maine, so I had limited time. They have some things of interest for fans of Newhart that they 'll show you. Bob Newhart is great.

I didn’t realize the historical significance of the Inn when I booked it based on location from RT100 for leaf peeping. Overall, the establishment is in great condition considering the age. The rooms have no TV or radio and have a window air unit. My reason for a lower rating was the carpet. It was extremely dirty. They had 3 different kinds of rugs around the bed, and I didn’t look under them, but the exposed areas were gross. The shower is very small if that could be a concern. We had dinner and breakfast there and they were both really good. The staff was friendly, although obviously short staffed.
The prices are steep for the small portion sizes, a reality we were aware of beforehand. Most of the food was quite good, but some of the meats were dry, which led me to give the overall experience a three-star rating. After leaving, we ended up stopping at a fast-food restaurant to compensate for the small servings; I was surprised to find that a Happy Meal contained more food than some of the pricey dishes we had.
That said, I might consider visiting again in the future. If I do, I will update my review accordingly.
We only ate a meal here and I have to say it was the best meal of our trip. The chicken pot pie was outstanding and the service was great. You will be happy if you are lucky enough to enjoy a meal there.Noteworthy details: There is a lovely garden with lots of beautiful flowers.
Absolutely fantastic inn! I adored the friendly staff, the cozy atmosphere, and the delicious food! It's a great spot for leaf peepers like myself! I'll definitely return!

The Waybury Inn lost the reservation I made in June for February graduation and they are not honoring my receipts or finding me a place to stay. Be wary...
The best pancakes I've ever tasted! The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating.
