While we were stuck in the motel in Brattleboro we ate most dinners in our room (freezer and microwave food) but we went out a few times. The choices were limited in this small town, but we did go to one place that was excellent – called “Top of the Hill BBQ” as it was on a small bluff above the river that runs through town. Great food out of a very small kitchen (a bit larger than a food truck!).
