Good selection of food and ice cream. Fun place to go. Outdoor seating on the river.
You get what you pay for. The food was good fast food, but check your order because mess ups happen! It’s not rocket science, but when they leave something out (take out) and they have fried clams mixed in with your onion rings, then it’s time to talk with the staff.
Cash only
The seafood is a hidden treasures and the milkshakes are to die for.
Great food and awesome ice cream!!
Love this place! Right on the Ottauquechee river in Woodstock, go here for a giant ice cream or my favorite, chicken in a basket :)
I ordered an eight dollar salad and got a few greens pre made in a plastic container. The real kicker was the attitude and disinterest of the help who clearly didn't want to be there. Nice atmosphere, lousy help, over priced food.
Good food, nice brook out back to sit by.
Best little snack bar in Vermont right on the ottauquechee river. Good food, great scenery, nice picnic area right by the river.
Bad icecream over priced crude staff
Food was great and the scenery outside was beautiful.
The best seafood and portions and price.
Food was good. Very busy
Food was great, fried clams, and more than I can eat.
Great ice cream
I love the food! But I love the icecream even more. My partner and I visited this place all summer long and were always satisfied. Additionally, the outdoor seating and picnic tables and chairs near the river makes this the perfect spot to hang out with family and friends in the afternoon.
Everything we've had there has been great! We spent three days in town and ate lunch or dinner there every day.
Great food by the water on tge 4th can,t be better.
Yummy fish n chips
Nice stop along route 4. Love their shakes and grilled cheese!
Stopped on a lazy Friday afternoon I sat by the Riverside swinging tables and enjoy the fish and chips. Thin crispy coating on the fish with thick crispy natural skin french fries. Generous portion enjoyed very much. Regarding counter staff, cell phone use should be discouraged in front of customers
Good stop for a quick lunch. Mostly fried fare, few options for anyone with special diet needs. Nice outdoor seating.
Love the ice cream and milkshakes at this institution. They've rebuilt beautifully after the hurricane but it's still the iconic place my grandmother used to take us for ice cream so many years ago - only now it's open year round with indoor tables (still prefer the outdoor seating by the river though).
Good place to stop 4 a quick bite or an ice cream.
Food was good but way over priced!
Love this place before the storm love it more now.
Glad to see it rebuilt and better than ever! Most definitely would recommend and come back again.
Always fun and enjoyable. The food is good, and the view is stellar.
Great little burger and ice cream joint...summer tradition in Woodstock. Let the kids eat ice cream and play in the river.
Great value. Food is quite good! Great to sit out back by the river.
Quaint eatery on a creek. Clam dinner was very good and the ice cream was a decent size. Take note this place is cash only, there is an atm located next to the order counter. Plenty of outdoor space to take in the nice view.
What a great little place..great food, reasonable price
everything was delicious. first time eating there, won't be the last. LOL
Great ice cream on a hot summer day
One of the best snack bars i have ever eaten at.. I so recommend eating at this place to everyone.. They have great food and the prices are that bad either
My family and i were driving around on vacation looking for something to eat. We drove by this place that looked really nice. The White Cottage Snack Bar. It stood out as we drove by. There were seating outside along the river where you can eat which was another thing that caught my eye. I went in and checked out the menu. I took a few pictures of what they currently have and prices. Inside this place was pretty dirty and the food was very expensive. We looked online at some reviews of this place and people were saying their food was tasteless. So we didn't want to take the chance of spending a lot of money for lunch if people are saying its not the best tasting food. So we decided to leave and we ate elsewhere.
A must stop every time we drive through from Wisconsin! Great whole clams and many different flavors of ice cream to choose from. Had the blueberry ice cream last night, delicious!
Good food and scenic. Table tops on the swing out by the river was a unique touch.
Not a place that I would go back to we ordered a clam and a scollop dinner one with fries and coleslaw and one with onion rings and slaw the batter on it was very bland scollops were Bay scollops and dry not the least bit moist,clams were ok but friescookef very inconsistent some hard some mushy not impressed won't stop again
Fun place to eat out by the river and take the kids for a swim. Good food.
Great location. Good value.
Good food and service ice cream soft and hard
Cute place to eat right by the river with rocking pick nick tables. Good lobster salad and chowder. Will visit again.
Excellent fried clams! Nice outdoor seating overlooking the Ottauquechee River.
Love this place the best snack bar in Vermont!!!
Got ice cream here, so many flavors! Cute atmosphere
Right by the river nice place to relax and enjoy an ice cream on a hot day.
Plus: good location on a pretty river with lots of outdoor seating. Good with kids since they can wade in the water in nice weather. Minus: food is ok, nothing special. Ice cream is good but large sundaes are served in very small dishes so tend to drip over the side. Several times served burgers with wet lettuce that basically caused the bun to turn to mush.
Great place to get an ice cream cone and enjoy it by the river.
Great food and location.
We ordered a hamburger, chicken fingers, pulled pork sandwich, fries, mozzarella sticks, and onion rings and everything was awesome. It was our first visit and we will definitely come back
Really good burgers and nice place!
Great ice cream with unique flavors!
Come here every summer. Best place for fried clams outside of Boston! Huge portion for the low price too. Have yet to have s bad experience!
Great scenery, atmosphere, and food!
Yummy Nice river view
Great food! Classic fried seafood and burgers etc.. fun place to sign outside on the picnic and then dip your feet into the river after!
Fresh food, nice staff and perfect place to sit outside. We would be back when we will be around.
Beautiful water side lunch. Good food.
Great food great scenery must try
A wonderful place to grab a quick bite! The prices can't be beat. Eat your meal inside, Or sit in a swinging table outside. When you're done wade in the water right outside. If you're with kids, bring a towel, they will definitely want to play in the water This place only accepts cash
We continue to eat there every summer as a family tradition. My husband's great grandmother lived just down the road. Onion rings are excellent! Lots of typical drive up restaurant food. Great outside seating.
Great history. Good food qnd great prices. Awesome swing benches over looking the river.
Been driving past it for 30 some years, finally stopped and it was great. The homemade soup was excellent and the sandwiches were great. Our new place for lunch in Vermont.
Cash only? Its 2019! Portions are small as well for the price you pay. Wont visit again.
Amazing veiw
Very good food cost a little high
To expensive
love the seafood platter although they used bay scallops instead looked cheap guys!!
HORRIBLE IN EVERY WAY. Do not bring your business here. I don’t even want to give a star. I walked up to the window and was treated like I was bothering her. She took her time to put her phone down to help me. Ridiculous. She wasn’t personable at all. I wish I had canceled my order when they told me it was cash only. The burger was raw and a soggy sloppy mess...my husband may throw it up he’s not feeling well at all. The onion rings were very greasy and the clam strips were a laughable portion. $30 wasted.
Good maple creamy
$11.00 for a frappe and small ice cream sundae is outrageous
So pretty tables near the water
Love the food, I have yet to find better onion rings
Always very friendly & , wonderful food and service with a smile.
Loved it
Pumpkin spice bisque and a Lobster Roll! Delicious!
Excellent food stand. Wonderful burgers.
Fast and friendly service. Sat by the water. Yogurt and sorbet were very good.
We had a fantastic time with our four kids here on a hot day in July. We got the homemade fries and onion rings- the O rings were a step above. Great ice cream selection. After eating we headed outside to the creek and spent two hours- the kids made friends and played with the rocks. Bring your bathing suits!
Ice cream is good, scenery is great, but it's way over priced. The service wasn't as friendly as one would expect for the amount of money spent on the food.
Hreat shakes and clam chowder.
Clam chowder was superb and the fish and chips delectable. The authentic banana split was huge and filled with fresh fruit.
Great food and great staff! Very Americana! I dread them closing in the Fall!
Nothing like ice cream and a swim in the river on a warm Vermont summer afternoon!
Great snack food
Very good summer snack bar food. Love the onion rings.
Have been coming here since I was a kid. Ice cream by the river, who can beat that? Better in the summer when you can actually go in.
Excellent service great food and ice cream
Couldn't count change. The employees had confusion the entire process of taking the order then gave my gf the wrong order with rotten cherries. Very disappointed. Maybe if they hired local kids who knew English and how to use USD$ there would be better service
Beautiful setting, but the food was an incredible disappointment. My stomach is still churning.
Lots of different fairly quick food from scallops to hamburgers and seafood,sandwiches hard and soft ice cream.clean bathroom,outside picnic table s with beautiful view of river .
So good, the service was great, the ice cream was great and the river was great. Highly recommend.
Good location, a real treat to have an ice cream by the water, and.....Ms PAC Man!
Food is quick and good...ice cream from Maine.. right on the Ottaquechee River. Dog friendly.
Great roadside stop.! You can take you food down by the river as the kid's cool off in the shallow water. Huge ice cream cones!
Great ice cream in Woodstock, lots of flavors and fun combinations. Nice outdoor seating by the river, it's a must have for evening treat.
Price is Right, ice cream was delicious
The food was good, but both times I went there we had issues with the service. The first time they forgot one of our ice creams. The second time the chicken in a chicken sandwich was very real in the middle.
Good food, great location
Nice place next to the river. Decent food served hot. Not fancy but fits the snack bar niche to a tee.
White Cottage is always a must during the Summer. Encountered a couple of rude workers, but the food..although really expensive...was great for a snack bar. The Clam Chowder needs more flavor, and not so soupy, but the whole belly clams are the best!
Great location and food, very clean inside. Cool garden to eat outside and to play for the kids in the river
While the scenery was nice I was greatly disappointed by the staff. The person who took our order stood in the window and never acknowledged us. I finally realized she was waiting for us even though she kept talking to someone behind us. Even when we started to order our food I want sure she hears is at first, she was so listless. I'm saddened that whoever too over the place had decided to bring workers from our of state to work in the White Cottage as opposed to hiring local people, especially high schoolers to work there in the summer. I will most likely not be back. I know other local places that have nice, outdoor atmosphere with good food.
Best fried clams in Vermont. Sorry its cash only. I would probably order more. No table service, no problem.
Quite place to sit and relax while enjoying good food. Outside seats allow you to watch the River while relaxing.
Can't really say anything bad or good
Love the ice cream and sitting by the river
The only place for a quick dinner at 9 pm. Service quick. Food like made at home. Very clean.
Very expensive, but decent food.
Good snack bar food
Great food. Great views. Wonderful place to go!
I've been coming here since I was a little girl. We used to get beautiful Softee ice cream here. Located in the same place-rebuilt after Hurricane Irene [2011] the only missing is its speed of service and friendly staff. As cashiers text-and I waited.i noticed only a few cars. This is the first summer like day in the 70's. This place used to be packed. Stop and sit a while. Enjoy a slower pace and old fashioned food and memories.
Ice caream and food was good,but I had sweet potato fries and they could have been warmer
Food ok, order takers rude and impatient. They do not accept credit cards
Great family friendly stop.
This was the best $14 spent in all of Vermont! It's a little snack place but it is really clean and the food is great! What we liked best were the wooden gliders where you could eat overlooking the stream. This was very nice! And the people were friendly and helpful :)
horrible service, atm broke while trying to use it and they did not offer any solutions to the problem. did not even order any food but their customer service is repulsive.
My husband, toddler, Leonberger, and I love this place! Food is always good, and the river is gorgeous!
nice place ... you can stay at the river ... good icecream
Beautiful scenery, and delicious food.
There is a reason people drive out of their way for a meal at the White Cottage, it's that good.
Terrific snack shack with awesome whole bellies on the river.
Tonight completely changed my option of an establishment I have been to a few dozen times. Our party of 12 placed our orders. When mine came out I very nicely said I believe my clam plate dinner is missing the onion rings-I had just glanced at it as my husband carried the tray to outside seating. I was asked for my “ticket”. I said my husband took it outside. The three girls behind the counter began discussion my onion rings and whether or not they were there. Apparently one alerted the owner who stormed over to me and again questioned the ticket. He wanted to SEEthe food. I said “My party and food are outside. It appears this is becoming a big issue to you all so let’s just forget it”. By this time it had been like five mins of chatter in the back. The owner IN AN ARM CAST climbed under the service window while yelling at me that he needed to find my food. He literally went outside (per my party) scanning the tables for my food. He said to the five people at my table “SEE THE ONION RINGS ARE THERE UNDER THE CLAMS!” As I was walking outside he scolded me telling me “I played that myself!!!”. I said I’m sorry I missed the onion rings however the amount of food was so small it seemed hard to believe they were there. (I’ve ordered this exact meal every time I’ve gone there so I know what it looks like) He stormed back to the kitchen where I heard him angrily gloat to his staff that he was right. Unbelievable!!! So yup there were four soggy thin flat onions rings on my plate cover by clams. My bad. When another member of our party told them he did not get his side of fries he had a similar experience. I will spare the details but you can see where this is going. We drop approximately $200 at this place where you order at a window and clean your own table. Who with an sense would risk loosing customers over a side of fries and onion rings. We were looking to just spend a nice warm spring night with friends while our kids hung out in the stream. He came marching out several times with his face in a scowl while we ate. We brushed of his caveman behavior and joked about ways to put him edge. Mature. No. Funny as hell. Yupper. Get a grip bud.
The BEST icecream! It is so nice sitting in the swings while seeing the beautiful river!
I am the one you accused me and my wife of using plastic cups for water to steal ice tea after we paid for 2 large ice teas and never got the cups with our order. That's why only 1 star, remember us now.
Great place to sit by the river (or even inside) and have some food. Its a classic. A trip for my family is not complete unless we dine here. Good food, kind locals, and great views.
Service wasn't the greatest but the icecream was!
Awesome food and great location next to the river.
The best whole belly clams. Portions are huge! A summer must to stop in! Make sure you eat outside to enjoy the view of the river!
Great food and friendly staff. Very nice day to sit outside by the river and enjoy lunch.
Great place for some classic indulgences from the fryer. Ice cream too! Right along a beautiful river. You can have a swim and eat your ice cream too.
Good food in a beautiful spot.
Food was good and you can't beat the scenery on the river. It is cash only but they do have an ATM onsite.
Had a very delicious blueberry pomagranate sorbet today. We'll be back next week for some clams. Love the shady eatting areas right next to the river. We watched 2 ducks feeding from the bottom of river today. This is a great place to have a very relaxing meal or snack, very clean restaurant, very good food, nice service, reasonably priced food, and clean bathrooms that are handicap accessible. Just FYI cash only NO credit cards accepted...there is an ATM on site.
Seafood was perfectly prepared and certainly tasty. Wonderful location with lots of outdoor seating to enjoy the local river/stream. They don't take credit/debit cards, but there is an ATM right inside the building.
4 years ago I took my girl scouts on a trip to NY, We stopped at the white cottage on the way there to have lunch by the water. We again stopped on the way back this time eating inside. I had no idea they didn't take debit cards and we are not allowed to take cash out of the atm. The man was so nice and offered to let me mail a check when I got home. We didn't have to do this because a mom paid the bill, I was so impressed by the mans offer. I cont. to do this trip this being my 4th yr. I came though in July, Stopping for lunch we all needed to pee. The two bathrooms were taken and one was taken for over 15 mins. A worker came around the corner, Seeing a friend in line told the lady "she was allowed to use the one at the top of the stairs" We still had to wail. Needless to say I was not impressed and decided to eat our lunch down the road. We stopped on the way home feeling like its been a tradition we really were not hungry so we got ice cream, Service was very slow... I then tried our "tradition" again this week, We stopped to eat a packed lunch by the water yet a bunch of people were there so we couldn't. We put our stuff down on a table above to think about what to do, Only to be yelled at by staff that its not a picnic area, Needless to say on the way home we stopped at Apple be's. I travel this trip one more time this Monday and its sad that we have to come up with a new spot to stop each way, Best of luck with the business. I really hope the staff learns HOW to speak to customers, Yelling only makes for less customers...
Very good if a bit overpriced.
Fun place to eat near Woodstock, sitting outside on the swing set. The also serve the fantastic Giffords brand ice cream.
Good food and friendly
Great memories from high school here. And still great ice cream. I had Maine black bear and Ana good old strawberry. Mine had dark chocolate mini Reese and berry ice cream. Yummy!
Lots of fried food options and burgers, stay for the Gifford’s Ice Cream (sooooo good) and bring swimsuits, water shoes, and towels to spend some time in the river on a sunny hot day.
Really good root beer floats. Lots of ice cream flavors!
Great ice cream, bring cash no cards
Great Onion rings and other good food! No Tofu and lots of atmosphere indoors with covered picnic tables by the river. Staff has always been pleasant and accommodating.
Good food and not bad priced
Great as always!!!
