Private Dining, The Big Spruce Way

At the center of every gathering is the food.

Led by Chef Christian Kruse — Vermont’s 2016 Chef of the Year and a 2022 James Beard Foundation Best Chef: Northeast semifinalist — The Big Spruce brings an eclectic, Vermont-inspired approach to dining that combines elevated cooking with a comfortable, casual atmosphere.

The Parlour Room gives your guests an opportunity to enjoy that experience in a more intimate setting, with attentive service and plenty of time to settle in, share a meal, and enjoy each other’s company.

Whether you’re gathering around the table for an important celebration or simply looking for a private dining experience in Richmond, we want it to feel memorable from the first drink to the last bite.

Your Own Corner of The Big Spruce

The Parlour Room offers more than four walls and a table. Your group can settle into a space designed to feel warm, comfortable, and distinctly Vermont.

Depending on your event, the space offers access to amenities including a private porch and outdoor fire pit, along with a dedicated entertainment system and attentive service for your gathering.

It’s intimate enough for meaningful conversation, flexible enough for a variety of occasions, and connected to the lively, welcoming atmosphere that makes The Big Spruce The Big Spruce.

Intimate. Relaxed. Entirely Yours.

No banquet-hall atmosphere. No overly formal event experience.

Just a comfortable private space, great food, genuine hospitality, and the people you wanted to gather together in the first place.

Good food has always had a way of bringing people together. The Parlour Room gives you the space to do it.
