Searched “best Ruben” and Handy’s popped up. The owner made my Ruben fresh Bread toasted to perfection. Sauerkraut and dressing the right amount. Added flavor but didn’t take away from the star of the dish- the Pastromi. Great quality, cooked perfect. Huge sandwich. Fries were crispy. Great friendly place. Definitely would come back and support a local business that makes great food

We are visiting for the weekend for a family wedding. We had breakfast and lunch at Handy’s . The food was delicious , prices were great but what separates this from so many diners , is the incredible vibe . I loved the U- shaped counter seating . The owner is so friendly. The happy and fun atmosphere is Epic!! He treats The UVM sports team players that come in so awesome . I can’t say enough about this place ! 100% need to visit this place for breakfast or lunch !!

Simple and easy. And good food.

Old fashioned lunch counter style diner, like a step back in time to 1960. A few blocks off of Main St. Family owned for a few generations. Very clean.

Amazing hospitality and delicious dining. A homebase for locals and the opportunity to feel local even if it’s your first visit. We can’t wait to come back again!!!

Great little spot to grab a quick bite. Staff was friendly and I had one of the best grilled cheeses of my life from here.
Stopped in for breakfast while visiting Burlington. Super cute, family owned place. Not a lot of seating options, all seats are stools at the counter, but it was very cozy and great food! Service was wonderful and everyone was super kind!

Oldschool Vermont spin on a traditional American Diner. It’s like walking back in time, to simpler times because it is. 1940’s-80’s vibes are real.
