    With little kids I think your best bet will be Piecasso. Doc Pond, Pro Pig and a few other places are all fine to take kids to but there is nothing for them to do when you are waiting around for a table so they will be annoying to deal with. Piecasso has a video game room/crane machine that will keep them entertained. Von Trapp is also probably a safe bet since I've never really had to wait to sit down there but maybe I have just been lucky.

    Whenever I have my offspring with me I've found if you get there right at 5 when they first start serving dinner you can usually get one of those low tables.

    I am a firm believer in posting a trip report for folks that took the time to post...so here it is:

    Highlight: The smoked porter at Lawsons was the beer of the week. We also loved the Lawsons experience in general- great food, beer and vibe.

    Sleeper hit: Drifter by Freak Folk-It was a recommendation at Waterbury Beer Cellar after I expressed a interest in wild ales. Wow- such a great beer! What do you all think about them?

    Alchemist: awesome as always

    HF- awesome as always- but I have to ask- why spend 45 bucks on an Anna Magnum? I was near the front of the line at open and saw plenty of folks buy one. I asked the retail guy about how it was different and he just said said that it was last year's vintage. That was not enough explanation for me to buy half the beer at twice the cost. Is there something I am missing? Not being sarcastic- I legitimately want to know.

    Piecaso was good

    Doc Ponds- awesome burger and 4 dollar Edward drafts- enough said

    We stayed at Trapp family lodge and it was excellent

    FYI- Downtown Waterbury is a clusterf your mother due to construction .

    All in all, a great VT trip. Happy Thanksgiving you filthy animals!
