“My family and I were in Burlington en route to Killington mountain. First time in VT and no experience in the NE. was pleasantly surprised by all Vermont has to offer, including Sherpa Foods. They have a small menu, but all items were delicious! We all got a different menu item and shared. What a nice little restaurant! Keep it up Sherpa Foods and we recommend. Will be back next time we’re in the area. ☺️“

“My local Panera in Oneonta, NY, is wonderful meeting spot for coffee and lunch dates with friends. But the SOUTH BURLINGTON VT location is where my nephew works. He was hit by a truck on Thursday right in front of the cafe, and the first person to comfort him was Robin! She and ALL the staff at that location have done SO MUCH to help us get thru. We are amazed at how well the organization takes care of its staff. We are awestruck by the love. What an amazing group of people!“

“Honestly walking in the atmosphere was welcoming, warm and inviting. The staff however not so much. My drink of choice is an iced mocha, unfortunately many coffee shops/bars make them differently so whenever I go some place new I always ask what's I the ice mocha. The guy was kinda snotty to me saying it's the same as a latte but with mocha. I asked what's I your lattes? I also asked how many shots of expresso? The other woman working gave me very soar looks. I'm not new to coffee, I was new to this place and while it would make since that all mochas are made with 2 shots of expresso some chocolate which is also different at a lot of locations and milk. So I wasn't overall impressed with the service and for me that's a big part of the coffee scene. Overall the mocha itself wasn't the best, but it wasn't the worst either.“

“This place is where great breakfast goes when it dies.

Wow. Bread, yogurt, meat, coffee, bread, and the bread... all top notch. Did I mention the bread?

Line was literally spilling into the street for over an hour on Sunday. Service was FAST, friendly, and was absolutely cruising. The locals know it, and now so do you.

Perfect place if you like a breakfast sandwich or avocado toast start to your day. The grilled biscuits were BANGIN.“

“I had a wonderful experience at Burlington Bay Market & Cafe last week while visiting Burlington’s beautiful waterfront. One of the highlights was indulging in their famous creemee – a Vermont classic! I opted for the Black Raspberry Creemee, and it was absolutely delicious. The texture was perfectly smooth, creamy, and refreshing, making it the perfect treat on a warm day.

In addition to the dessert, the food was equally impressive. The menu offers a nice variety of fresh and flavorful options, and everything we ordered was prepared perfectly. The service was friendly and attentive, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. The ambiance is another standout feature – with cozy seating and stunning views of Lake Champlain, it’s a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area, especially to try their popular Maple Creemee!“

“Best cafeteria food.Best food on UVM campus.[All other food on campus is provided by the evil campus food provider Sodexo, and it has additives and GMO ingredients and mystery ingredients like undefined “oil”. Please don’t let your university contract with Sodexo! Be like U Mass Amherst and contract with local and organic growers ]Decent prices. Paid $16 in total for one cup of mushroom barley soup, one personal veggie pizza with pesto, and 2 cake slices (triple layer chocolate mousse; Italian Cream Cake … neither were too sweet). Pizza includes optional packets of red pepper flakes, ranch dressing, and Parmesan cheese.The area to sit is also open and has windows.“
