Restaurants in Essex Junction

“We made reservations for our large group ahead of time and they were very accommodating. The service was fantastic, keeping our drinks full and making recommendations from the menu. The food was all delicious, and everyone enjoyed their meal. About half of our group hadn’t had Indian food before but they all left as fans! The waiter was able to easily guide the vegan in our group to a variety options for him. We all enjoyed tea and a sweet at the end. We are so glad to have found this restaurant and will definitely be back!”

“This place is a Gem! the atmosphere is amazing, the food is so good and the people are so friendly. we loved Katlyn! A+, 5 Stars!”

“Stepping out from behind the bar, Zach filled his role as our Server to perfection. Friendly, informed, attentive and polite, our first dinning experience at Bramble was fantastic! Friends had recommended we add Bramble to our list of options and we're so glad we did. Food was excellent, wine and spirits offered interesting options... Pistols and Pesos was killer! We'll definitely be back. Thanks Zach and the whole team at Bramble for a nice dining experience....something we need more of in the area”

“Always good food and friendly staff”

“Amazing Thai restaurant, probably among the best I've ever been to anywhere! Being from NY, I only wish I could take this place home with me! 🫶🏼”

“Our favorite restaurant of any kind. Food is always amazing and the people exceptionally friendly.
Have had the vindaloo, mango chicken, shrimp tika masala, mango lasse, chili garlic naan, many others, always exceptionally delicious. Don’t forget order the chicken soup, it was simply amazingly good.”

“Excellent sandwiches and service every time we go!”

“Friendly, family fun! Something for everyone and always see friends there! It's our "Cheers" place where everybody knows your name😍😍”

“One of the best food spots in Essex hands down‼️‼️”

“Food is incredible, if you like spicy ask for it the special instructions if getting takeout. I will be back!! I got the chicken tikka masala and lamb korma. I highly recommend. Only about 14-15 dollars per meal.”

“I love the atmosphere and the coffee and tea of course. The comfortable chairs are so relaxing for enjoying your coffee and conversations with friends.”

“Amazing breakfast! Everything is made in house! Highly recommended!”

“Excellent service, delicious food, great beer selection, nice atmosphere. So glad we gave it a try. We will definitely be back.”

“Firecracker is my absolute favorite take out go to!!”

“I eat at Sukho Thai about once a month, sometimes more. They offer some great menu options that other popular Thai places in the area don’t, and they have good prices and great portion sizes. The food is always fresh and tasty and the folks who work there are nice and attentive. I enjoy that it’s usually quiet and relaxing inside. Definitely a great option for dining in the Essex area!”

“Outstanding bakery! Big city taste & quality in little Essex Vermont. Just eat here!”

“The Nest has become my favorite place to get a maple latte so far in Vermont. Not only is it the most reasonably priced, but the best tasting coffee I’ve found as well. The pastries we’ve tried there have been good. Wish they had full breakfast sandwiches too!”

“From what I could gather, they have a few products.They receive and ship I brought in a load of they call powder.I could be hot cocoa.I don't know, but I had nineteen palettes.And they unloaded me a couple hours early, so very nice people keep the bathroom clean inside and keep the outside.Nice and clean.Also I do not think they have overnight parking here, but there's rest areas on the highways.I was in and out in a couple of hours can't complain”

“The lack of changing tables in the restrooms is unacceptable. Parents shouldn’t have to choose between taking kids outside or putting them on the floor of a diaper change is needed.”

“The food was delicious, the waitress was attentive, and the prices were reasonable.”

“went there on 3/25 for my first drink outside the home and the amazing Kasia was bartending, she made me feel right at home and the atmosphere was amazing! danced with a local who also made me feel at home! will for sure come again🤟🏻”

“We love the Essex and come here every time we travel to VT. The staff are responsive and friendly, the rooms are clean, cozy, and comfy. The one warning we would give is to say that the price that you book for is nowhere near what you get charged for at checkout. There are extra add on charges on the bill that “tax” your imagination. Just be sure to ask up front.”

“A cute spot with friendly service. The coffee was decent although a little weak for my taste (also served in enormous mugs by default, wasn't asked what size I wanted). We ordered a BLT and a breakfast sandwich with scrambled eggs and bacon. They were made fresh but had zero condiments or seasoning so just dry bread with the fillings... we were underwhelmed. Food did not match expectations based on the pictures. This place has potential - just a little creative effort could elevate what they are serving.”

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

“great music. looking forward to farmers aid. plenty of parking.”

“Great food, drinks and the live music!”

“Always heavenly food and the staff is very polite and courteous. Fr. Charlie”

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

“I visited this restaurant with two girlfriends on a beautiful summer day and sat outdoors. We had the tarragon chicken salad wrap with fries and the BLT with sweet potato fries which were delicious. Our server did a great job and there is plenty of parking. I hope to return soon!”

“Mom and pop shop. Counter service only. A solid creemee but I always come back for the clam chowder and fried haddock roll.
The clam chowder might be the best in the state. The haddock roll I always add lettuce, tomato and onion to- it’s always cooked perfectly which means it’s a flakey and messy sandwich. The buns always buttered and the produce is always fresh on the sandwich.”

“My daughter’s favorite restaurant. Food is great, people are great, we love it here.”

“Food was horrible, 6 empty bins. When we complained they said they were getting ready to close because of weather so they stopped cooking. I asked why we are being charged full price she responded, "You lucky we open" No! you're lucky I paid the bogus bill of 52.00 for lunch for 2. Oh, they now add on 18% gratuity automatically, you have no say about it.”

“Excellent coffee, perfectly crafted. Exceptionally packed, had a hard time getting through people to get to the coffee. Baristas were amazing and positive even under such an insane rush/workload.”

“Best burrito I’ve ever had!!”
