“Matt and I have been to Hoagies in Essex a few times as of late and have had the best experience. The servers are amazing, the quality of food is consistent and tasty and we always feel welcome. If you’re wanting quick, yummy eats look no further. Treat yourself to the house Italian dressing. It’s been my favorite since I was a little kid in the 90’s!”

“I was visiting the area and looked up GF foods. As I was leaving for my long trek home, I stopped at the bakery first and bought a bunch of items (on recommendation of another patron in the bakery). Absolutely every item I bought was amazing! My family got to try it all and agreed that everything tasted just like non-GF foods! (they don't usually like MY stuff). I now think I need to make another several hour drive just to stock my freezer!”

“Delicious ice cream and friendly atmosphere! Always a good time here! Thank you!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a gift certificate and decided to check out Pearl Street Pub for a long-overdue date night—and we’re so glad we did! The atmosphere was fun and laid-back, the bar food was on point, and the drinks were exactly what we needed after not going out in over a year. The bartender was super friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. It was definitely worth the babysitter fees! We’ll absolutely be back.”

“Food is consistently good! Fast service and very delicious. They always make things exactly how you want them.”

That joint is known as Park Place , Best wings ever, Best Chili ever and other amazing food , all at reasonable prices. An amazing staff, Chelsea, Mike, Gage, Heather ,Alyssa ,Jason .

Nan & Dave. PS tellthe staff that we sent ya.”

“Simply the best breakfast sandwiches, cookies and coffee around!”

“The food was quite good and I enjoyed it all. In particular, the Cajun shrimp which was fantastic (and surprising), the Kung Pao beef, and chow fun. Scallion pancakes were nice and crispy.”

“My family has been coming here for years. Both my girls worked here and we have always appreciated the level of consistency that Mimmo's food offers. Always fresh, hot and delicious entrees and salads. Most recently I have been sitting at the bar while I wait for my take out order and have had the lovely privilege of being waited on by Simone's partner. She is a fireball with the best customer service skills I have encountered in Vermont or anywhere! Everything she does is to make the customer feel attended to and she does it with the most energetic and positive effort! Mimmo's never disappoints!”

“Super-fun experience at the culinary experience at the Essex Resort in Essex, VT. Our instructor, Denise, led us through the recipes and techniques to create a wonderful Vermont dinner that included roasted root vegetables, braised chicken (in dark beer and demi-glacé) with shallots and a variety of mushrooms, and a lovely kale salad. We were given the opportunity to decorate autumn themed sugar cookies as well as dip tiny apples into a luscious caramel coating. A small group of 9 students made the experience very intimate. Our meal was served with wine and fresh bread accompanied by an herbed compound butter. Denise was a perfect instructor and I would recommend the experience to anyone who loves to cook.”

“Some of the best pizza in chittenden that you can order by slice. There are tables but its small, could use a little updating but on the verge of nostalgic old school pizza if thats what you are digging for. Short distance from parking to entry, zero stairs. Typically there is seating while you wait.”

“Great service. Drinks always full.”

“While the food and coffee is always average at best I found the charmy atmosphere quite appealing. I also noted that only one worker was there handling it all while their manager wouldn't come and help. That young lady named Sam was so amazing and polite, I felt so bad for her being treated that way.”

“The food was good, I went here with a couple of my friends and the server seemed rushed and somewhat judgmental of my friend despite it being not busy. Atmosphere was alright. There’s TVs at each booth so you can watch sports. Only complaint was that the TV stopped working halfway through our meal. The food is not bad at all. I got fish tacos and they were delicious. My friend got some mozzarella sticks and the cheese was very gooey. Overall, not bad, we probably caught it on an off day.”

“Every bite was amazing taste experience! We are do happy to have this restaurant in our neighborhood!”

“What a fantastic experience. The staff were fabulous and the food was delicious. Be sure to get their Parker House rolls. The wine menu was extensive and bar staff were helpful with selections. If you are staying at Hotel Vermont, it is right next door. Highly recommend for dinner and drinks.”

“Delicious food. We had the most delicious Portuguese style mussels. Out of this world. Nice selection of well priced wines. The chefs are very talented preparing uncomplicated delicious food.”

“Disappointed. The food was mediocre and a little pricey. Husband and son had the steak burger which was small and not very well seasoned. Wait staff was very nice. Ambiance is pleasant.”

“Inventive dishes made with fresh and local ingredients. Vegetable forward. Staff is friendly and kind. Any dessert with buttercream frosting is the way to go. I have had two of the best desserts of my life at this restaurant.”

“Delicious food in a cozy setting. Definitely recommend it. 🙏”

“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!”

“Friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Really liked looking around the beautiful building as we selected a space for our large party - we chose the game room to enjoy our food and drinks. Perfect. Highly recommend!”

“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!”

“We have a friend that is seriously ill and we wanted a very special meal for he and his wife prepared and delivered to their home. The manager and staff arrived at work early to make it happen and would not accept a fee for delivery. They went beyond their duties and provided a marvelous meal for our friends. What beautiful hearts and souls they have. We thank you all so very much for your great meals and service.”

“By far the best creemee’s we’ve had this year. We’ve gone too many times to count because they’re that good! The butterscotch is next level and would maybe highly recommend that everyone give it a try. My only suggestion would be to pass out napkins when giving customers their cones. It feels as though there is a reluctance to hand them out when ice cream can be a messy but necessary evil!”
