Ranch Camp is a must-see destination in Stowe. The food and drinks are incredibly delicious and reasonably priced - great portions to share with friends after a day on the slopes or mountain bike trails. The bike shop is also really great - all of the technicians are knowledgeable and friendly. I always go to their bike shop for apparel, bikepacking bags, parts, tune-ups, and more. Most recently, my friend and I tried their rental service and rented Altai skis - We had a blast on the Cady Hill trails which are just steps from the Ranch Camp parking lot.

We are vegetarian, and are not fans of pub fare food. Most places in Stowe are meat driven and/or fried food. We weren’t lucky to find places that offer the variety of vegetarian options as Ranch Camp. The food is delicious, and the atmosphere low key. They have a good beer selection. We went here almost everyday for lunch and on some evenings for dinner.

Went here to rent fat bikes and enjoy some craft beer with a burrito. 5 stars all the way across. There are great trails for mountain biking right behind the location. They have a great craft beer selection and the menu is very cool... I recommend the burritos. There are plenty of gluten free options if thats what you are looking for. The staff is friendly and helpful and the location is close to town. Check it out!

We're locals and heard great things about Ranch Camp. We went there today, and aside from the great service by Holly, we had a very disappointing experience.
The fried 'chokes were super salty and there were hardly any "hearts', mostly fried leaves. Since the 'chokes were so salty the tamari dipping sauce was just too much.
The sticky balls weren't sticky at all. They were mushy and boring. There was nothing about them that stood out, which was disappointing. We had high hopes for them.
The falafel nuggets had good flavor, and the outside was crunchy, but

The concept is fantastic, but the execution makes it all work. Beer, burritos and a fully functional bike shop in one location!!! Trail head parking and oh yeah, the bike shop will actually fix/help with issues in real time! None of the "leave your bike and maybe we'll get to it in two weeks" nonsense other shops tend to do. And yes, on the food side quite a few vegan and vegetarian options. Patio tables, too...bring your mask, keep VT safe!

Stopped by here for lunch and did not know what to expect. What we found was plenty of parking, great craft beer, and delicious with huge sized portions, and dog central outside.
This was the place to stop by for lunch. Get here earlier or during the peak time, there is a bit of a wait to put in your lunch order. We ordered the cheese quesadilla (for kid), burrito , the rock w/ pork. All were delicious but my favorite was the power bowl (the rock). The pork was juicy and well flavored. My husband got the burrito and it was not easy to eat and broke apart easily - probably because there was so

Food was really really good. Had the ahi tuna burger, the Stowe salad, and the fried artichokes and everything was really tasty. Service is pretty much non existent since you order at the bar and get a number but staff was nice. Only thing is I wish they had real utensils instead of plastic… disappointing but food was good.

Fun Place! Nice atmosphere, unique patio dining. We were not biking but this places sounded good so dropped in for beer and light food. Great beer selection, we had Lawson's Sip of Sunshine and the Alchemist IPA and both were excellent. The falafel dish was a bit lacking in seasoning, the Brussel sprouts were very good, and the sweet potato fries were good but just ordinary fries. I love so much about this place- hope the step up their game just a bit on food flavor. All good and clean tasting, but on the bland side. 4 stars for a great place to hang, drink, and eat light.

Ranch Camp is such an incredible concept, incredibly executed. 1) the bike shop and staff are exceptionally knowledgeable and furthermore friendly and patient. We have bought (and consigned) multiple bikes through them 2) the food and beer selection are excellent. Everything is good but the falafel and chicken sandwiches are ridiculous 3) finally, it is located right at a trailhead accessing Cady Hill. It literally is like a killer base lodge for mountain biking 4) much more...they just added Backyard and the whole scene in the parking lot is like A-basin for spring skiing. Tons of trucks and bikes

Came in late on Easter for some yummy vegan food and great local brews. We know where to go for both. Joe took great care of us. We had the place to ourselves for most of the evening. Grateful for the friendly, fast, and professional service as well as tasty vegan food. Staff wears masks and tables are spaced out. Tables are very clean and we always feel safe when dining here.

Ranch Camp rocks! Speaking on behalf of the food, not the bicycle shop.
Friendly service, covid precautions were great during the first wave, and the experience was good overall. Plus the food was tasty too.
When I needed an escape from the indoor life, it was a solid option to have available. Definitely recommend stopping by.
