Hostel Tevere Restaurant & Bar

This place is unreal — myself and four buddies came to ski having heard nothing about this place. We anticipated we would have to go out to find some nightlife fun, little did we know this spot was best of all. Giles was welcoming with open arms — we proceeded to drink them out of their stock of Heady Topper’s and play all of the board games with the rest of the hostel patrons. The end of the night (early morning) was capped off with a soak in the hot tub. Great affordable accommodations (what you’d expect out of a hostel — dorm style living, perfect for the social financially conscious skier) full bar, amazing food (when they are serving) all run and surrounded by great people. Do yourself a favor and check them out!

This place is not just a hostel and bar but a huge part of the heart of warren, VT. Clean and new sleeping accommodations in a great environment with chill hangout space and a great living room with a fireplace and a fosball table at the bar. They have awesome bands playing every weekend, including the great Russ and Ray of Soule Mounde on a regular basis. The owners are incredibly hospitable and the bar has a perfect ski town vibe. A must visit in the Mad River Valley.

Sadly, they are no longer a dining destination — only serving burgers and only on Thursdays. Bar is open several nights.

The boyfriend and I spent xmas week right next door at the Powderhound Condos so Hostel Tevere was our local for a few days and it was a great one.
Like many bars in the area, the beer selection is really fucking good (it’s a Heady Topper source). I’m currently in love with Lawson’s Sip of Sunshine and they had it on tap so it was going to be hard for me not to enjoy the place after that. When we came in one night and I wanted wine, I was surprised to find that I really liked the white the bartender (who was super nice) poured for me. He didn’t have much of a red selection, but the white was so good I’ll forgive them.
The best part of this bar, though, is the availability of both foosball and darts. There are two dart boards and darts hanging out in the main room but if you want a nicer set you should check with the bartender and be nice– much better quality darts.
It appears that they don’t do food anymore, but they did have a French bulldog running around at one point which is much better than food.
The Hostel is also one of the pickup places for the local free bus which was also super convenient. So even if you aren’t staying there or right next door feel free to get your drink on, call the bus driver, and get a free ride home.

This is a great place to have a local beer and hang with locals and visitors. Kids had a great time too playing foosball and hanging in the lounge area. Go for the beers and atmosphere! Not the food… which is very limited.

We stopped in at 12:55 on a Sunday for the brunch (didn’t realize it was only to 1 PM) but the staff were very accommodating. My breakfast burrito was one of the best ones I’ve ever had, and my wife’;s pancakes were full of fresh blueberries and equally scrumptious. A must go to again!

When my wife told me we were staying at a hostel I was very skeptical. We arrived late and went right to bed. The next morning we woke up and had breakfast with our friends. I am not lying when I say this was one of the best meals I have ever had. It is run by a guy and his fiancé. They do everything. There were 7 of us and we all kept saying «you have to try mine.»
The whole experience was outstanding. We felt like a guest in someones home. Not another name at a hotel. Downstairs there is a bar. It was like a local bar. Not some place that you felt out of place.
We will definitely be coming back. Not because we need to come to Vermont, but because this place was so amazing. There is a mountain close by. Coming back to go snowboarding.

Burgers, poutine, and salad were great, as was the service. A very cozy little spot that we will definitely be back to. The menu is small but there is something for everyone and has a great and some great beers. A very European-​ski area feel.

This was a great place for college friends to reunite and go skiing. Expect EURO style hostel/​restaurant/​bar. Make sure that you don’t do like I did and invite that old college friend with «Dog» in his nickname… he will SNORE all night long!

They have really good food. I like how they keep a limited menu so they can do these few things really well. They have a very good beer selection. It’s a fun, cool vibe in the bar/​restaurant.

Extremely dissapointed!!! We went excited from hearing good things, but when we got there it took 5 min for someone to even greet us. 10 min for someone to see if we wanted to start with a drink. and then over 40 min for our food which wasn’t even cooked! The fingerlings were raw and the pancakes uncooked. When we told the waitress they weren’t done she said that’s the way we cook them here! Really?! The waitresses were beyond rude! Ill never go here again!

wow. I can’t say enough about this place and our meal. it’s low key and relaxed. the owner /​bartender handled the dining room and bar with style anf grace.
our food was literally one of the best meals I’ve had in thr last year.
we had parsnip «mock» pasta with sage butter. delicious and original. winter squash with chevre was totally yummy. my bon mhi sub was flavorful and satisfying. my husbands pulled pork was smoky and scrumptious.
beer selection was well thought-​out. and my red zin was buttery and bold.
what a surprise. what a delight. too bad we live 6 states away. otherwise this place would be on my regular rotation.

Been here three times now and it’s always great. Food is fantastic (dinner and breakfast) as is the beer selection. Can’t beat the location esp. if you like hiking and generally being outside. As far as the lodging — I’ve been to many hostels and this is definitely one of the nicest, cleanest and most comfortable I’ve seen. The people who operate it are really helpful and friendly. Just not much to critique here at all. It’s a gem of a place at a superb value. Strongly recommended and I’ll definitely be back soon.

Let’s start with the good stuff, because there’s a lot of it. Hostel Tevere is beautifully decorated, warm and welcoming, clean, and in a great location. But when we stayed there last weekend, there were two incredibly late nights of very loud music from the bar downstairs, making it very difficult to sleep until 2−3am, not what you want before days of being in the outdoors.
Saying that, the bar is cool, and a nice addition to the hostel. But if sleep is really important to you, you might want to check what’s on that weekend before committing to a stay there.

As far as Hostel’s in Northern VT go my only experience had been Grampa Grunt’s up near Jay. Probably worst experience ever.
Hostel Tevere however was amazing. There is art everywhere and a great sense of style throughout. No tv but plenty of books. If you find yourself up there it’s a great affordable place to sleep.

Amazing atmosphere. Positive, fun, and laid back. Friendly people all around. The owners are great! We had sushi on Thursday and breakfast which were both really good. Looking forward to our next visit to VT and hostel tevere!

Two years running, Hostel Tevere has been a bigger excitement factor for me than the actual reason for being in Vermont for the weekend (beer fest!). I found them last year online and my group took the Hostel plunge. Having stayed at a few hostels around the country, my expectations were low and surpassed immediately. I tell everyone about this place and absolutely adore Giles and Sara!
Accomodations: Think ikea dorm room. Very clean, wood floors, thick steel bunk beds and interesting light fixtures. I won’t go much more into it as this is the restaurant review, but I think it is a big selling point that you can eat, drink, and sleep comfortably among friends when out of town.
Food: I’ve only enjoyed breakfast here, lucky me. There is a chalkboard of the fresh ingredients for omelets and specials for the day and a constant supply of delicious local coffee. I usually opt for the omelet, the VT goat cheese is killer. last time they had roasted tomatoes, delicious! I’ve also nibbled on other’s stuffed french toast, which has a frosted flake coating and worth the calories.
Drink: Beer! Two taps of local micro brews, from Lawson’s to Trapp and Trout Brook. The cocktails Giles mixes up are
, the bloody mary will cure what ails ya in the morning.

Love the hostel. The food rocks and so do the owners Giles and Sarah!!! The steak and cheese is addictive. Good place to see a variety of music as well

Hostel Tevere is still the reigning breakfast champ, i have slowly been making my way around the best spots in Seattle and nobody here is doing it as well as they are.
Need to get to Vermont quickly!

On the spur of the moment, I drove up from Brooklyn NYC for a solo Vermont ski weekend. After poking around for a place to stay, I stumbled upon the Hostel Tevere — which turned out to be an absolute perfect fit for me.
First off, it is super close to Mad River Glen, which is definitely one of my favorite places to hit the slopes. If you’re a snowboarder, then Sugarbush is also within a 10 – 15 minute drive. And besides, the Mad River Valley is one of the most scenic areas in all of Vermont, so why not stay there?
Second, the food is solid. I had their delicious french toast each morning and also gladly feasted on their hearty dinner fair each night. It isn’t gourmet, but it is simple, filling stuff that will keep you happy.
Third, the bar scene is one of the best I’ve seen in the Mad River Valley. A solid group of locals effortlessly mix-​in with the people staying at the hostel, and as a solo traveler it was definitely nice to have plenty of people to talk and hang out with.
Fourth, the bunk beds are super comfortable and the rooms are very clean. And after spending an evening drinking beer in the bar, it was super nice to simply head upstairs to bed then have to get in my car and drive elsewhere on icy/​snowy roads.
The hostel definitely isn’t a place for a romantic ski weekend with your partner, but if you’re driving up with a few other ski bums who just want to ski and drink beer afterwards with some chill locals, there really is no better place to stay. Five stars!
