IF you ever find yourself in this neck of the woods - perhaps like us, stay at the latchis hotel and see a movie in the wonderful Art Deco theatre, well eating here is a must. This chef knows his Italian - the pasta was great, complimented, as it should be, by whatever other ingredients. We travelled extensively thru south... More

Fireworks is a bar/restaurant. The two times I visited I was seated in the room with the bar. The bar is not loud or rowdy. The atmosphere is low key, not fancy but there are cloth napkins which gives the place a more upscale feel. The seating is close so intimate conversations are difficult at best. The menu offers individual... More

This restaurant was recommended to us by some folks who shared our chair lift this winter, so we decided to check it out the next time we were in Brattleboro. What a treat! The menu was creative, the food tasty and the service good. It gets pretty crowded on a Friday evening, which makes it quite noisy as well.

Fireworks is probably our favorite restaurant in the town and region. We inevitably get the specials; salad, pizza and pasta. They are always unique with interesting falvors The pizza is wood fired, and thin crusted. Decent beer and wine selection. Prices are very reasonable. We have been there many, many times and have never had anything resembling a bad meal.

Located in a prime spot in downtown Bratteboro. Very nice food, but not stuffy. Get there early as the place is very busy and you will have to wait. The service is good. The only complaint I have is the tables near the doorway are exposed to cold drafts if you are there on a cold, windy, winter night. They... More

Thanks for your feedback. We've been working all winter with our new landlords to improve the heating and draft situation near the front door. Plans are in the works for an outdoor vestibule to be constructed before the chilly inter winds begin to blow again! More

So sorry the dining room felt loud to you when you were in. When we are full, it's a small property, and it can get a little distracting with the hustle and clatter of a busy restaurant. Thank you for your patience! More

We needed a late night dinner after spending the day at Pumpkinfest in Keene. We were staying in Brattleboro and couldn't find too many places serving a decent dinner late night. We popped into Fireworks and they told us they only had the late night menu available, which was fine, since it was mostly pizza. I found from an online... More

Thanks so much for your kind review! And for your husband's patience with a pizza he didn't enjoy. Some folks do find that fig too rich, so we've adjusted the fig jam recipe to cut down on the balsamic and lighten it with lemon & honey, and it's now offered as a smaller pizetta, so we hope that does the...

Creative, well prepared food with fresh ingredients served in a comfortable environment. Whether your craving pizza or pasta, neither will disappoint. Pizzas crusts are thin and delicious and never swimming in grease nor drowning a cheesy slop as is the custom at many pizza joints.
