Amazing place to get a good meal by the water, the staff was amazing and the food even better.

Honestly our waitress was too unconcerned with us. She didn’t even fake apologize about not checking in or bringing all the items we ordered.

Didn’t check in or ask about refills. Never brought my husband’s drink.

Not even a look at us while I saw her going to other tables multiple times.

When I asked about my husband’s drink she was just flippant.

The vibes of the bar itself were cute the view was nice but it was soured by our experience.

Do better

This is a very cute location with great drinks. The food was mid, I would recommend it for an app and drinks but not dinner. There are better places in Burlington to spend money if you want high quality food.

Nothing really great about this place except the views. We order the falafel bowl and it was bland with nothing much to it. Rice was over cooked and the falafel burger didn’t taste like anything. Wouldn’t recommend.

Food was nothing special. Beer selection was good. Met some locals. Staff was so busy, but attentive. Location was beautiful.

Yellow jackets were around all the seating in the lounge area. That should have been an omen.

At the end of our meal, my husband was stung and the waitress hesitated when we asked for ice saying she “guessed she could find a bag to put some in.” He is allergic to yellow jackets. (We also had a 2 yo with us). Got the check and fled the scene for Benadryl.

The location and view are amazing but…we sat at lounge areas on sofas that were stained. Dropped food from previous guests surrounded table and tables were obviously not wiped between guests.

It was a hot sunny afternoon and the shade from area umbrellas did not cover the seating areas making it very uncomfortable. Everyone in the area was jockeying for shady seating. When we mentioned they could use more umbrellas, staff said it was too hard to keep chasing the sun. They just need more umbrellas.
When we ordered, we asked for cups for water (it’s self serve) and never received any. Food was OK but the overall attitude of staff was terrible. It’ll be a long time before we ever go back.

It would be a nice spot to get a beer but the food was such a bummer. Their fried chicken sandwich was a small frozen patty that seemed to be microwaved and then doused in mustard. I couldn’t eat it…

Food was not the greatest.
Fish over cooked in the tacos.
Plate servings were very different portion size. Burgers overcooked. Could not even get cold water just warm. Fries were cold.
Definitely the pics of food were not the same. Pics don't match what we were served

Perfect spot along the waterfront. We shared the calamari (which was delicious especially with the little cherry peppers), nachos and then chips and salsa. The chips and salsa needed more salsa but the chips were thick, crunchy and fresh. All dishes were decent portions. Our waitress was really nice but she disappeared a couple times for extended periods so we had to wait for drinks and extra salad dressing. Would definitely go back for the laid back atmosphere.
