Family, Friends, Neighbors, Community-
This will be our final letter to you, as we have made the heartbreaking decision to close the Antidote doors as of Saturday, October 19th.
The last 15 years have been nothing short of an amazing whirlwind. The Antidote has been a community gathering spot, creative outlet, and our family. We are incredibly lucky for all the people we have met and the live music and amazing food we have been able to share.
Times have changed, restaurants have changed, and our life has changed. Thank you to all our amazing staff currently and over the years, to our families and friends for their unwavering support, and to the community, we are so grateful.
Please join us this last week for food (until we run out) and a “Retirement Party” on Saturday night.
Reservations not required but suggested.
Located In Scenic Vergennes, Vermont
Bar Antidote Serves Farm-to-Table Comfort Food, Creative Cocktails and Local Craft Beers
Bar Antidote opened in 2009 and is located in a comfortable speakeasy setting in downtown Vergennes. Since then, award-winning Chef and Brewer Ian Huizenga has been serving both quality interpretations of classic dishes, and daring new ventures each featuring ingredients sourced from the area's surrounding farms. Inspired by his upbringing on his family's Monkton farm, Huizenga brings a deep appreciation for the foods of Vermont sourcing cheeses, meats, and vegetables from local farms for his dishes; picking wild ramps and mushrooms in the area woods for his dishes; and sourcing local hops, malt and barley to brew his own beers.
