Imagine it. A food scene of eclectic culinary artistry, nestled in a wooded river valley.
Randolph’s hidden gems are quickly being discovered — and not just the James Beard Foundation, who gave the Best Chef Award for the Northeast to Saap Restaurant's chef-owner Nisachon (Rung) Morgan in 2022.
Oak & Iron's menu is inspired by steakhouse classics mixed with fun, creative twists. It includes a variety of steaks, such as filet mignon and Delmonico, half chicken, duck, and risotto dishes. For those seeking lighter fare, the menu will feature vegetarian options and seasonal soups and salads. Small town Vermont dining doesn't get cozier, nor more abundant in its diversity of cuisines.
There's a popular ice cream window in the summertime, and plenty pouring of piping hot beverages in the winters.
What's more, dining in Randolph is an immersive experience interwoven with artistic expression. Most of the town’s restaurants double as visual art galleries, live music venues, or both.
