Why Book Your Holiday Party at Vyne

Vyne hosts business luncheons, client dinners and holiday celebrations at 1365 Whittemore Road in Middlebury. Every small group event includes flexible seating for mingling and dining, a coordinated food and drink menu, and personal communication with our team from your first inquiry through the night of your party.

What a Holiday Party Menu Looks Like

Most small group events begin with appetizers shared family style, such as crispy calamari, mussels in white wine broth or a grazing board with artisanal cheeses and charcuterie. Each guest then enjoys a fresh salad and chooses from 4 to 5 chef-crafted entrées. Vegetarian, gluten-free and custom dietary options are available, and every menu can be customized for your group.
