Come Spend Your Idletyme With Us
Idletyme Brewing Company is a big restaurant with a small brewery attached. We specialize in making German Style Lagers but since we are in IPA Country, we throw in a couple of hopped up ales for good measure. We rely heavily on our seasonality. Summer is an incredibly busy time for us. We are located directly On Stowe's Recreation Path which leads runners, walkers, and bike riders right to our backyard, a large beer garden and dining space with a treehouse bar. During the Winter we are the 3rd restaurant on Mountain Road coming down from Mount Mansfield. The Apres crowd is strong and we thrive on busy nights during the ski season. Idletyme is located in the space formerly occupied by the legendary Shed Restaurant. We do our best to maintain the conviviality The Shed once provided.

Line Cook - Our Guys/Girls rock. It is impressive to see the kitchen team execute. We pay well for the best people to make it happen.
