Great cafe with good food and coffee. I've always had a good experience there and it's my go-to when I want a lunch on the healthier side of things.

I'm happy there is a cafe with consistent hours in Bennington with a nice place to sit and a good selection of drinks. I didn't have food but it looked pretty good, and I've liked it on previous visits. The coffee (black) was pretty good but not really great; it tasted pretty roasty to me even though it was a light roast. The London fog (Earl grey tea with frothy milk) was kind of lackluster and they put a ton of syrup in it so it was very, very sweet. But it wasn't even on the menu and they still made it for us so I can't really complain. Overall solid cafe, and one of the better options in the area.

I stopped by for lunch and to kill some time. I pulled in and walked to the big building first but then found the cafe off to the right in the other building. I ordered the salad with chicken and black bean corn salsa and got a drink from the fridge. I spoke to the owner briefly about the signage and she explained that she had the maximum size sign the town would allow, I thought a free WiFi sign at the street might bring in more travelers. The owner came over and handed me a chocolate chip cookie for my trouble, I thanked her again and enjoyed my lunch. There is plenty of room in there and the food was good, the cookie was really good. I hope they thrive here they deserve it.

What a fun place! At lunch, a group of moms were hosting a picnic for toddlers on the grass, a couple of student groups were hanging out having lunch at outdoor tables, an older guy was camping on his computer enjoying the coffee. We ate outside too although there was also plenty of widely spaced seating and a few customers inside. The staff was friendly and helpful. The menu is limited, but there is something for everyone. The black bean quinoa burger and Baja burger were both very good.

Surprising gem of a spot. The food was a refreshing assortment of fresh items. I enjoyed the Baja Salad and my friend had the black bean burger. We were both pleased with the taste and the portion size. The cookies were good too!

I had an excellent latte and fantastic breakfast sandwich! I loved all the vegetarian and vegan options, the service was fast and friendly, and it was a super pleasant place to get a couple hours of work done.

Ecclectic menu. Indoor and outdoor seating.

Incredible iced latte and amazing breakfast burritos, a little pricy but it is definitely worth it. Very nice service and nice seating.

My granddaughter is allergic to walnuts and became ill immediately after having eaten the caprese sandwich — the pesto she eats has pine nuts in it and she’s not allergic to those — this pesto had walnuts. I called the restaurant and asked them to put a warning on the menu —- I hope they do so.

Terrific coffee and the cinnamon buns will change your life.

Great vegan options! The burrito and burger with tofu scramble were absolutely delicious!

Hard to find in Bennington— an espresso machine! And this one came with several great features: a barista who was not only very pleasant but also made great espresso, with beautiful crema, had been to our hometown, and was knowledgeable about the hiking trails in the area.
