Back Country Cafe

Boy did I want to like this place more than I did. I read such glowing reviews and I love good diners. Diner food is generally a simpler food to cook professionally. I say this as a former Executive Chef with numerous decades under my belt. I have cooked my fair share of breakfast food. It's an easy food to do as long as you make sure of a few things like: most people like crispy home fries and most people like toast actually toasted. We ordered 4 dishes for 3 of us. WE got an extra plate of corned beef hash because we love it. Corned beef was only ok. If you go to the trouble to make homemade - make it great, not good. My egg sandwich was good but the English Muffin was not toasted. I know the menu says they cook it on a griddle but they barley did that. For my son not to eat his burrito is weird - at first I thought maybe he died then I took a bite. It tasted weird. My wife's breakfast was only ok. Maybe it was an off day for the kitchen. The whole staff seemed really nice and amazing.

Was hoping for a nice breakfast with the family, but had a terrible experience. Hostess had no control over the seating and was only attentive to customers checking out. 3 out of 4 coffee cups at the table had food stuck to them. Biscuits and gravy were soured and hash was cold. Waitstaff never checked in. I would rate zero stars and will not return

We came here every morning of our vacation. I like everything we ordered. It was reasonably priced and the portion sizes were large. It all tasted fantastic. I can't say I had a favorite dish, but I recommend trying the pancakes, French toast, breakfast sandwich, and corn beef hash. Definitely try the maple syrup and Vermont Voodoo hot sauce! They kept our coffee mugs full and brought the food out quickly. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Killington, VT. I can't wait to visit the area again and eat here every morning.

Solid breakfast food. I had the Mexican scramble and I was surprised at how good it was, since some places offer that kind of dish but don't pull it off. Homefries had a nice amount of seasoning, French toast was good. Overall very good!
