Birch Ridge Inn Executive Chef Stephen Byrne

Birch Ridge Inn Executive Chef Stephen Byrne

The Birch Ridge Inn at Killington is pleased to announce the appointment of Stephen Byrne as Executive Chef. Stephen will be responsible for the inn's culinary activities, including menu development and cuisine preparation.

My partner, Mary, and I are are very excited to have Stephen join our team. His experience in owning and operating an inn, combined with his culinary leadership in both large and small restaurants, makes Stephen a great addition to our staff.

Stephen comes to the Birch Ridge Inn directly from the Wobbly Barn at Killington where he was the Executive Chef. While at the Wobbly Barn, the restaurant had won numerous awards. Prior to joining the Wobbly Barn, he and his wife owned the Killington-Pico Motor Inn and Oscars Restaurant located in Mendon Vermont. Stephen was originally introduced to the Killington culinary scene in the 70's and early 80's as head chef at the, now legendary, Alpine Inn.

Stephen lives in the Killington area with his wife, Pat, and 2 children. When he is not in the kitchen, like most chefs in the region, you will find Stephen enjoying the outdoors, or taking a few turns on the slopes at Killington and Pico.

In other news.... following up on a story originally posted November 14th... The Killington Resort has officially notified businesses in the area that the resort will re-open for the winter season on Saturday November 19th. While weather conditions at Killington are currently warm and damp, a cold front is due to pass thru the area later today. I hope that tomorrow I can bring you pictures from the mountain showing snow guns blazing.
