Burt's Irish Pub — Restaurant in Stowe

Burt's is a small place that has character and unlike other places ins Stowe they have a small menu with fresh made dishes. I ordered the chili cup and tacitos, the serving for both was generous. That was before I found out they also have tamales, while I didn't order it another customer ordered one and it was a large size green chili tamale. Prices are good, the draft beer is cold and they have a large selection of craft and mainstream can/bottle beer. This is definitely a local bar, but they are friendly and talkative. The hardest part was finding the place, their parking entrance looks like you are driving into someone's yard and there bushes/trees that prevent a clear view of the place...

We called around looking for a pub that would offer beer "on tap" that was not limited to craft beer. The lady here told us they had all kinds of domestic draft, like the typical Bud, Miller, Coors, etc "on tap". But when we arrived and ordered from her, she "claimed" she told us she only had those in bottles. That was absolutely false. . . Yes, it's a small point, but we drove there based on her information so it was really disappointing when she changed her story upon our arrival and then claimed it was our error. So we left. Found a great spot down the road called the Sunset Grill & Taproom. Great food, service, and better...

Stopped in on a whim after visiting other places in the area and do not regret it one bit. It's basically a quiet hole in the wall, nothing fancy but the ambiance is great. The staff was super friendly, the beer selection was excellent, and the owner is a nice Columbian lady who cooks fantastic Columbian food (don't let the "Irish pub" bit fool you). The carne guisada (stewed beef on rice) in particular was delicious and did not survive long; the empanadas were also great. Well worth the visit, and next time I'm in the Stowe area, I'll be sure to...
