Dietary restrictions: We have nut and egg allergies, they were very accommodating and menu was easy to navigate regarding allergies.“

“Visited while I was in the area. The ice cream was fantastic ! I got the cookie dough, what a treat! They had SO many other flavors I can't wait to try! Ice cream is all made in house as well. The place was very clean and the vibe was very laid back. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. The owner even came over to check how everything was and if I needed anything. Super nice guy ! This is a must visit if you're craving some delicious, homemade ice cream!“

“Delicious coffee, their specials are always changing. Friendly staff, great atmosphere. I would highly recommend it!“

“My husband and I hosted our welcome party for our wedding weekend with Queen City. We held the party in their awesome event space. Jason and his team were absolutely great to work with. Not only was the beer a ten (a given with these folks), our bartender for the evening was friendly, knowledgable, and kept the drinks flowing to our group of 50.The space itself is also awesome - plenty of room for a group, fun games and decor, and even a retractable garage style door to let in fresh air, which we were actually able to make use of as it was unseasonably warm the night of our late October party. They were also kind enough to let us use their audio and mic system, which came in handy for background music and a few short toasts.If you are looking for a variety of easy drinking to packs a bunch beers, friendly & kind folks, and an awesome place to host or just stop in for a brew, Queen City has it all covered. Thanks again!!“

“I am from out of town but whenever I am in Burlington I make sure to stop here for a drink and a bite. The brews are fantastic and creative, and the menu is well thought out. The food quality is also great and has many options for shareable sizes. I like that this space is mixed blend - tables for a sit down meal, areas for more casual catch ups, and a large bar for quick and easy service. The service at the table can be a little bit slow if they get busy.“

“Our bartender at #switchbackbrewery told us the story behind the world's tallest filing cabinet sculpture and gave us coasters named after a beer they once produced. He was really nice person. I especially enjoyed the #AskewBeerCo. Stare at the sun Blond stout, and was sad to find out they didnt' sell that beer, would like to appeal to them to bottle and sell it.“

“tried the pretzel bites with cheese and a vanilla creemee float with maple cola when we went for the soft opening. cool vibe and everything was incredibly delicious. can't wait to stop by again sometime!“

“Great coffee and community“

“The best coffee in Burlington, and maybe the world. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. What a great place with a choice of 3 espressos!“

“Great people , great beer“

“I had a wonderful breakfast at Nomad! It was organic, delicious and filling!“

“4. Great cafe with a big menu for breakfast and lunch and lots of amazing looking baked goods. Friendly staff and big open space. The door kept being left open so it was really cold inside. My partner had the breakfast sandwhich which he said was really good but could have benefitted from bacon (not just bacon jam). I had the chickpea salad which was good but there were a number of wilted lettuce pieces which was kind of annoying.They make their chai in-house and it’s great. They only have one alternative milk (oat) and the only option for regular milk is whole milk.They use vegetable oil on their cooktop so not great if you have an allergy to soy.No vegan options in the baked goods section except for the bread which was yummy!

Vegetarian options: Lots of options for vegetarians- not a ton if you’re vegan!“

“Just had lunch here even though neither my husband or I drink beer. It's a holiday weekend and we didn't want to deal with the crowds. Boy, will we be returning. Pub menu is limited, but everything sounded good. We each got something different and split it. Both were delicious. Also, the Staff is super friendly! As for the beer, there were several people partaking and the City Brew Tours van was there so I'm thinking that must be good also.“

“The Pinery was the perfect addition to our wedding. The trailer was ideal for our venue due to limited space inside for a bar. The staff was flexible and friendly leading up to our wedding and the day of.The Pinery worked with us to create a bar menu that was a hit with our guests. We were able to create a menu with his and her cocktails and other cocktails to appease all guests. The team was also very helpful at recommending beers, wines, and nonalcoholic beverages. The prebatched cocktails (margarita, bees knees, whiskey sour) were all such a hit with our guests that we still receive compliments months after the wedding. The team even went as far as setting aside some of the his and her cocktails to ensure we had some before they were all gone and holding onto an egg white to make me a proper whiskey sour before the end of the night.We look forward to working with The Pinery again in the future and cannot recommend them enough for a wedding bar service.Carsen & Taylor“

“We really enjoyed this spot - but be warned, no food! Nice choices of beers, with half pours available so you can try a few different types. Fun little stop, nice funky atmosphere, outside seating, too! Within walking distance to the waterfront yet set back enough from the crowd. Would definitely go back!“

“Perfect little spot to get a creemee. It's not the cheapest, but you are paying for the location.
It is a good spot to watch the sunset and get a sweet treat with the kiddos or a quick glass of wine with friends. Please be patient and kind with the staff. They are young adult working hard!“

“We were planning to just grab a drink and then go somewhere else for dinner, but the menu here looked better than the one that was recommended. We shared the chicken sandwich and the poutine. I gave them 4 stars for food because the poutine was okay, although I wish it had more meat on it. The chicken sandwich was very good, though. Loved the vibe and atmosphere here.“

“Kestrel has awesome coffee and the best staff. Going other places doesn’t compare!“

“I ordered two shrimp tacos for $12 amazing a mushroom soup that was outstanding and I bought two more to go. It was amazing the soup was. The mixed drinks were reasonable price a person named Thomas was amazing bartender he was fabulous. I would recommend to go here to eat. It’s very good feeling good atmosphere food.“

“Kestrel has awesome coffee and the best staff. Going other places doesn’t compare!“

“I'd call this a cocktail bar, with some beers on tap and cans. Had a short wait to get in around 11pm on a nice Saturday night-- very popular place. Friendly staff. Plenty of pay parking nearby. Indoor and outdoor spaces, tables, high chairs and sofas. Might be tough for someone using a wheelchair to navigate the space.“

“Always fresh and delicious!“

“Wonderful little market and shop right in downtown Winooski. We miss their restaurant from years ago but now they are a cute little market with amazing prepared foods to go and cook at home (their Shepard's Pie is wonderful, and their Tourtiere and Crab Dip are to amazing!), really unique items like their Smoked Char Rillette, and Pate’s, yummy breads, grab & go food items, salads, sandwiches, etc. We had the chance to talk to Logan and he shared their evolution over the years from restaurant to market, and that many of the items in their market are sourced locally from the region. A regular stop for us when we're in the area!“

“The new ArtsRiot is vastly improved! So mich better than the canned cocktails and bar food of the previous ArtsRiot. The menu isn’t large but what they have is quite good! Stop in for a fun, unique cocktail, an app (we had delicious fried Artichoke with “fancy yogurt”) and/or pizza. We had a slice of local mushroom pizza and a more traditional pepperoni. Taste buds are dancing! Crust was thin and flavorful. So glad we stopped in to check out the new situation. A+. We’ll be back.“

“❤️I’m obsessed with their COLD BREW! I sweeten it with agave...so addicting❤️“

“Amazing place to be , we love it“

“Good food and beer. Large dinning area“

“friendly service, great food, great coffee/ tea, chill environment“

“One of the best, if not the best, beer bars in the Burlington region. They have a variety of all types of beer on tap. It's one of the few places you can get Hill on tap outside of the brewery and they usually have 5-6 selections of their beers. Can't go wrong with the spicy chicken sandwich, poutine or loaded tots.“

“Came here twice over Indigenous Peoples Day weekend and loved it. Coffee was top notch. Great donuts. They’re practically giving away the breakfast sandwiches, which were awesome. The guy working the counter was really nice and gave good service too. Will definitely go back next time I’m in town.“

“Very friendly staff taking great care of customers. We had tonight the best pizza we ever had in town, thin crust, crunchy and great tasting in the true italian tradition. Bravo Simone and Michele !!!“

“Had a lot of fun here on our honeymoon in 2015. Highly recommend!“

“A great little local “SPOT” to stop and eat! We met a friend for brunch and enjoyed it very much! The food was really good and has options for everyone. The service was friendly and the vibe was chill with a surf decor theme going on.
I would definitely go again!“

“High recommendation. Excellent food, good beers, and great atmosphere. My family are regulars. Keep up the good job Black Flannel.“

“I was gonna give a 3 for food, but that would be unfair as I am not a poutine fan, I had the short rib poutine and it was salty af and kinda gross, I was high and ate what I could, my cocktail which was a peanut butter thingy was really good, staff were all very friendly and welcoming“

“It was my first time dining here with my Dad! Great staff and food!“

“awesome experience. bartenders were very friendly and created some of the best cocktails I've ever had“

“Food was good and service was good“

“Not sure why this place doesn't have better reviews. I've been coming here for almost 3 years as it's always a reliable spot to scratch that sushi and miso soup itch. Great local spot with reasonable prices and good food. The folks working have always been kind and respectful.“

“great food every time. one of the best places around for good Chinese!“

“my home away from home, my grundle away from grundle. Golly gee I love this place. I can only express my love through art so a las I wrote this haiku for you, grundle:Where the meat is moist,Where I come to feast and love,Oh grundle, my love.“

“Great pub food! Nice atmosphere and waitress was really good!“

“I travel 3 hours to visit. Best food!!! ❤❤❤“

“On the first night in Burlington, our second stop was Four Quarter Brewing. Here, I opted for a pint. The brewery had a good selection of various styled IPAs, however, I was in the mood to be more traditional. I ordered their Dolla Dolla Pilz, their Winooski Pilsner at 5.7%. It was clean and crisp and just what I needed to close out the evening.
