I had the filet mignon and It was off the chart good. Service was decent. Presentation was "ok" Atmosphere was "ok" Price was high. Slightly higher than what you get. So the food was top notch, everything else was mediocre... hard to score it.

This restaurant is truly a pleasure as the name suggests! My family went for Mother's Day and both the food and service were terrific. The apps to entree timing was perfect. The presentation and flavors equally matched. I wouldn't hesitate to come back for a fine meal in an area where fine meal quests typically come up short. Nice job, CP!

An Excellent Ethnic Option Because I honestly have nothing negative to say about this fabulous restaurant in what I am going to call the Greater Rutland area, I will keep this review short and to the point... Whether you are skiing/riding one of the nearby mountains, staying in Rutland for business, or live locally, you would be missing something special if you didn't give Countryman's Pleasure a try! Food and beverages to accommodate everyone are plentiful (I was able to order an excellent sweet German white wine while my father and wife shared an exquisite bottle of a French dry red). Definitely try the Grilled Bratwurst and Alaskan Crab Cakes appetizers and the Chocolate Linzer and Sacher Tortes for dessert! Service was relaxed, but prompt and everyone from the host to our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Atmosphere is warm and inviting... Like we were visiting someone's (very large) country home (complete with a wood burning fire). Oh, and just a note about the parking... Drive past what appears to be the main entrance to find the larger parking lot on the other side of the building.

This is an excellent restaurant with a good German menu; they include many other items as well. I had the Filet Mignon, which was excellent and everyone else had German dishes. The service is always wonderful and the ambience very nice (little things like lighting the old fashioned lanterns goes a long way with me!) This is not an inexpensive restaurant but my family comes here for special and not-so-special occasions.

Superb German restaurant within walking distance of the Best Western, if you are careful crossing the street. Allagash wheat beer on draught was refreshing and mixed well with the schnitzel and wurstplate. Salad was fresh, with tasty house made dressings. Surprisingly they only had one mustard, a sweet variety. Some of their online menu was not available, including the gravlox. Comfortable,somewhat upscale dining area - but not pretentious. Casual dress. If you take into account the lack of good dining in the area, this is worthy of 5 stars. Expensive for the area, but worth it. Waitresses are inexperienced but friendly.

I would not advise to order Roast Half Duckling. It was well seasoned but rubbery. Not something that you would want to pay almost $40 for and not being able to chew.

As a large group we had an opportunity to try several of the dishes. The Wiener Schnitzel was dull and nothing like a real Schnitzel. The duck was overdone but the sauce was good. The side salad was fresh. The rest of the sides were tasteless. Pepsi goes for $4.50 and a tiny kids meal for $17. Priced as gourmet but lacking any refinement. We will not return.

Whenever I travel on business to VT I make it a point to visit the Countrymans Pleasure. They are pricy but the food and atmosphere is very nice. My only complaint is the feeling of having been fleeced when I pay $4 for a mini-sized iced tea and then after the meal find out I was charged for refills. Talk about a kick in the shorts. I'd suggest this restaurant to others...... Just stick with water though :)

Dining here was a real treat for me and my husband. We had just finished a long day of skiing at Killington (about 15 minutes away) and were happy that this restaurant was across the street from our hotel. The restaurant wasn't too crowded when we got there at 6:30 but it had filled up by the time we left about 2 hours later. First of all, hats off to our waitress. She had wonderful and very professional timing: when we were ready to order, she was there. When we had (both) finished our entrees, she was ready to take away our plates. We never had to wait more than a minute or two for the next step. The food was delicious. The chef / owner is a pastry chef by training, and you could tell from the rolls that were brought out with the water. Two of the rolls were typical rolls, but the other two had either a lemon or orange zest topping. My husband ordered "the complete meal," so he got a soup, entree and dessert. He seemed to really enjoy his split pea and bacon soup. The dessert, authentic apple strudel with homemade whipped cream, was a great way to end the meal. I can't recall what my husband's entree was (other than it came with garlic mashed potatoes), but I really liked my entree: veal medallions with crab meat in a hollandaise sauce, served with vegetables and a side of spaetzel. It was mouthwatering! This restaurant gets bonus points for having a type of beer that brought back fond memories of studying abroad in Germany. Specifically, it's a "Berliner Weisse" and it comes with a raspberry syrup. The waitress brought out the half liter bottle of beer, a shot glass full of syrup, and a beer glass, so that I could mix to my taste. I would happily go to this restaurant again. Mahlzeit!

Great food, excellently made, sloooww service. I was alone and it took an hour and a half to get to dessert... And I am still here. Something important to note is I am literally only 1 of 2 tables!!!! Great saurbraten, excellent and extensive German food menu. Don't come hungry, tired, or in a hurry though.

So my husband and I stumbled onto the Countryman's Pleasure when we were vacationing in New England last week. What a great place! It was reminiscent of a Swiss restaurant in the Alps. Loved the atmosphere, fireplace, cozy wood trim and attentive wait staff. We even got there in time for the early bird specials but the portion size was as large as a regular dinner portion. Very generous. What impressed us most was the food and how it was prepared. Everything tasted as if alot of work was put into it. I had the sauerbrauten (sp--sorry I'm not German!) with my favorite red cabbage. From the orange marmalade topped dinner rolls to the apple strudel dessert, the food was perfection! Our compliments to the chef! After picking apples in the cold, this was a warm, welcome meal. We'll be back!

With a German family background, I was thrilled to be introduced to this place a few years back while visiting Killington. The food is truly authentic and ALWAYS outstanding. Chef owned and operated, this is my 5th time dining at the CMP, and I look forward to the 6th. We made reservation's for Friday night a week earlier, and our table was ready when we arrived. Sitting in the enclosed porch of this charming establishment, we were able to enjoy conversation and feel as though we were in a private room. There are two options, main dining room and tavern. I suggest the main dining room for a little more of a formal and intimate feel. Two of us ordered the house specialty WIENER SCHNITZEL , the other, lemon veal medallions. Both dishes were superb, served at the right temperature and quite possibly the most tender pieces of veal I have ever tasted. With very classic accompaniments, garlic mashed potatoes, carrots and red cabbage, each flavor complimented the next. The only downfall was a very inattentive server who seemed to always be busy but never doing anything. I ordered a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, and a Cabernet Sauvignon was delivered. Several of the other staff members including the hostess seemed to be picking up her slack, and thankfully, this is the first time we have had so-so service. It will not keep me from going back... although I would move quickly if seated in her section. I commend the other staff members for recognizing the issue and seemingly working as a team on every other table she was supposed to be serving.

why are you still reading this? go to countryman's already! We stumbled upon this local gem based on yelp's review, and boy are we glad! We arrived as a group of 8 around 9pm, that's an hour before they close. The main dining room was full with locals, and they promptly seated us in a private dining room, that's one door away from the kitchen. The host was very friendly and honest, the waitresses were very helpful, all of the food we had ordered were made to perfection. The ambiance was very warm, welcome, intimate, and homey. This is now one of our must go places whenever we are in the area.

My friend and I went here based on these reviews. Excellent food, service and atmosphere! We both had the wiener schnitzel and were very happy. For an appetizer we had the stuffed mushrooms. Also good. We tried the house martini, but found it too strong...they took it away and let us exchange it for a Pinot. Had a great time. Also, we had the strudel, which was wonderful. We drove two hours each way to try this place and it was worth it!
