the tillerman is hiring!


about the tillerman:

the tillerman is an inn, restaurant and events space located just outside the rockwellesque town of bristol, vermont. we work on a historic property that dates back to the late 1700's. our vibe is old new england meets northern california meets a flower market meets a farmers market meets a warm vibrant community.  wool, wood, leather, copper, natural fibers and rich colors are the look.  palo santo, pine, and wild sage is our smell.

our food is impeccably sourced from local farms, producers, vendors, makers and ranchers. we are entirely committed to quality and keeping our food  simple, rustic served in a family style format. eating at the tillerman is like going to a dinner party at your friend's house who also happens to be the best cook and host you know. when folks leave here they feel like they have not only had a beautiful meal but also an experience that feeds the soul. 

we are located in a thriving and wonderful town and community in addison county. check out this link from the new york times if you are wanting to learn more about the area.
