Our favorite place in that area is Worthy Kitchen. https://www.worthyvermont.com/worthy-kitchen. Great food and excellent beer selection. The setup is a bit different, you place your order at the bar, then grab a table. When your food is done you pick it up at the kitchen. They’re closed Mon - Tue but they are open Wednesdays. We also like Trail Break for tacos. https://www.trailbreakwrj.com/
One of our favorites is the restaurant at Simon Pierce. Thyme in WRJ is also quite good.
When we were there a few years ago, we had surprisingly good meals,at:
Big Fatty’s for bbq (https://www.bigfattybbq.com/, open Weds-Sun)
Harpoon Brewery for pub food, https://www.harpoonbrewery.com/windsor-brewery/
I consulted a friend who lives not far away. She endorses all of the above and adds these:

Ransom Tavern at the Kedron Valley Inn (Neapolitan-style pizza)
The restaurant at Simon Pearce is indeed terrific (and pricey). You’ll need to book far ahead for primetime seatings.
Red Rooster at the Woodstock Inn is similarly upscale but a bit more square and traditional; it’s a lovely room.
There’s usually a long line at the Mont Vert Cafe for breakfast and lunch, but I think it’s worth waiting for. That brisket sandwich, mmm.
Probably my favorite recent meal in that area was at Cloudland Farm. It does a three-course prix fixe – literally farm-to-table, in what looks like a fancily converted barn – on Fridays and Saturdays. Scenic jaunt through the woods to get there. Worth planning ahead for.
