This place has the BEST breakfast I have ever eaten. I got the mushroom toast and it exceeded all expectations. The drinks were excellent too. The strawberry danish was enough to make me want to come back to Burlington just for that.

Cute spacious space. I had a mocha, it was a bit too sweet. The pain au chocolate was also just okay.

Cinnamon bun is a must! Cozy place with a good vibe :)

I love August first and will always come here for a good coffee & baguette ! Love that there’s a no laptop rule also.

I came here with a friend to grab some caffeine and a bite to eat before getting on the road to Montreal. I saw a sign advertising their new Paddington Latte with Earl Grey and orange syrup, which sounded appealing. I ordered the latte, a sandwich, and a few baked goods. When I received the latte it did not resemble any shade of brown and was not filled to the brim of the cup; which I know the proportions in a latte is typically 3:1 to 4:1 but it just looked like milk. When I took a sip of the latte it tasted like bitter milk. I brought the issue up to the cashier, and asked if I could just exchange it for a maple lemonade instead. She looked appalled, and proceeded to attempt to charge me for a lemonade when all I had asked for was for an exchange. They asked if putting more syrup in the latte would resolve the issue, and I felt forced to try even though I expressed I did not want the latte. I felt the demeanor with which the staff treated me was condescending. It truly made me regret tipping 20% for my sizable to go order. They seemed insistent I take the latte. I have worked in the food industry for seven years, and I have never treated a customer in that manner. I communicated in an amicable manner, and staff was very entitled and rude to me simply because I asked to exchange a drink. I will admit August First has great sandwiches and baked goods even though they are costly, but was very dissatisfied in their customer service and coffee.

This place is where great breakfast goes when it dies.
Wow. Bread, yogurt, meat, coffee, bread, and the bread... all top notch. Did I mention the bread?
Line was literally spilling into the street for over an hour on Sunday. Service was FAST, friendly, and was absolutely cruising. The locals know it, and now so do you.
Perfect place if you like a breakfast sandwich or avocado toast start to your day. The grilled biscuits were BANGIN.

If you are looking for a great sandwich for breakfast or lunch. I definitely recommend this place. I ordered the Carmela’s Italian Sub and it was amazing!

Inside was clean and I really liked this is a laptop free space. We waited 40 minutes for a sandwich, which was disappointing and greasy. The cinnamon roll was good.

The food was ok, the lunch sandwich and the avocado toast were nothing special, especially for the price…
The service was okay.
The atmosphere was good though.

Don’t be intimidated by the long line out the door. Good coffee and service given the early Sunday morning crowd. If you only order one thing, make it the incredible griddled maple biscuit.
I came here for brunch with my husband, it's absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! we were blown away by our sandwiches: Vermonter and Jerk Chicken. I definitely recommend coming here, prices are between$ 14 and$ 16 but it's worth the price. be prepared to stand in line . there's also outdoor seating.

I eat here every time I visit Burlington— the food is AMAZING and the vibes are great! When I went today, I accidentally dropped a coffee I had gotten earlier in the morning and they made me a new one on the house. It was so genuinely kind— this place is great!
On our tour of America we were tired of breakfast at the hotel and were rewarded with a real start to the day here. Coffee and food were super delicious. The food was particularly great with real cutlery and plates! Thank you for that!
