Associated Venue: Bobcat Cafe & Brewery
Established in 2002
In the kitchen, our goal is to create food that is wholesome and interesting to insure locals and visitors return often. We design our menus around the seasons and what is available in and around Addison County while borrowing techniques from a range of world cuisine. We work hard to bring quality and consistency to the table, offering food that is informal enough for a quick meal with neighbors but worthy of an important celebration.
The Bobcat Cafe and Brewery opened in 2002 as a community supported business designed to be a “third place” (a social retreat or meeting space away from home and work). Today we continue to support the community by hosting Wednesday night benefit dinners and by providing a comfortable and fun spot where neighbors and friends can meet up and enjoy a beer and a meal together.
Come check us out and enjoy!

Sampled from the tap at EBF. Poured a clear light amber with an off-whtie head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was sweet with some maple as well as some sweet grains. Flavor started with maple but mellowed into sweet grains with a hint of grass hops. Liked the maple note but was a bit thin overall.
