Description

For decades, The Bridge Restaurant has represented what people love about Vermont: community, comfort, hard work, homemade food, and a familiar place where locals and travelers alike feel welcome. Now, this beloved Addison landmark is ready for its next chapter.

Located near beautiful Lake Champlain, Historic Chimney Point, and the Lake Champlain Bridge connecting Vermont and New York, this unique offering combines an established commercial property with the rare opportunity to live steps away in the included residence. Create the lifestyle many dream about: own your business, shape your vision, and come home without ever leaving the property.

The restaurant has a long history as a gathering place known for hearty meals, homemade classics, and generations of loyal customers. A future owner could continue this tradition or reimagine the space for an entirely new concept.

The possibilities are wide open:

destination restaurant
brewery or taproom
bakery/café
farm-to-table concept
specialty food business
catering operation
event space
creative commercial venture

With excellent visibility at the crossroads of Vermont Routes 17 and 125, this location captures local traffic, visitors exploring Lake Champlain, travelers crossing between Vermont and New York, cyclists, tourists, anglers, history enthusiasts, and four-season Vermont adventurers.

The included home next door adds tremendous flexibility: owner occupancy, staff housing, rental potential, or simply the ability to build a business while enjoying the Vermont lifestyle.

After years of dedication, the current owner is ready for her own next adventure, creating a rare opportunity for someone new to step into a property with history, heart, and unlimited potential.

Bring your ideas, your energy, and your vision. The foundation has already been built. The next chapter belongs to you.
