“My new favorite coffee spot in Winooski! The cafe is clean, bright, and welcoming. Rotary Rose, a latte made with rose and pistachio syrups, has become my new favorite drink. They make perfect Latte's and I always enjoy the friendliness of the staff. I make sure to visit Spec's whenever I am in WinooskI.“
“This is my go-to spot for getting work done outside of the house but in the winooski area. There’s free Wi-Fi and usually somewhere to find a seat, lots of the tables have outlets near them but not all of them do.It is nice and sunny inside and the view looks right down the “onion ring”.Staff is friendly, drinks are good, pastries are good!“
“Very good cappuccino and iced oat milk latte. The kouign amann was also good and there are a few gluten free options like smoothies. The space is big and comfortable, id prefer slightly quieter music with a more laid back energy but not picky, just have sensory issues. Would love to see a gluten free pastry or sandwich option.“
“I visited the cafe with a group of four friends based on a recommendation. We enjoyed a delightful dinner at the restaurant. The Moroccan food was both great and authentic. The service and ambiance were outstanding. The place is commendable for both vegetarians and vegans. If you're in search of authentic cuisine, I highly recommend a visit to the Little Morocco Cafe.“
“I really want to give five stars but the last four times that I’ve ordered out here I’ve gotten a completely wrong order. Luckily all of their food tastes fantastic. But I do think they have to figure out how to make sure the customers get the right order the first time unfortunately.“
“Very cool coffeeshop right in front of the Co-op has great coffee and standout pastries - best croissant ? in Burlington so far - still have more to try. The building itself is a yuppie dream warehouse situation.Parking: Parking is tricky to get into because the access road right next to the coffeeshop is one way. Enter through the Howard center and there is another entrance in back.“
“The Boardroom is such a fun place to go with friends and family! There are so many games to choose from, the atmosphere is great (the downstairs is like your grandma’s cozy basement), and the food is nostalgic of your childhood favorites. Highly recommend going as your next group outing!“
“I ordered the Miranda sandwich. The first bite was like getting blasted by a flavor cannon. What did I just experience? Various shades of crunchy, chewy, salty, sour, sweet, saucy, crisp. All in one place, shining independently but also pulling together as a team. Was that celery? I didn't even look at the ingredient list. I'd like to continue basking in the mystery. 5 stars“
“The place nails the library-esque ambiance, blending chill with productivity—a perfect setup for anyone juggling code, emails, or just diving into the latest tech read.Coffee? Stellar. It’s the kind of brew that keeps your mind sharp and taste buds intrigued, clearly crafted with care. Paired it with their truffles—rich, indulgent, a coder’s best reward.Seating’s plentiful and designed for any agenda—solo deep work or a casual brainstorm with fellow techies. It’s obvious this spot gets the balance right: great coffee, serene space, and the freedom to settle in.In a nutshell, Uncommon Coffee Place is the go-to for anyone in tech craving quality in their cup and their surroundings. Will be my regular haunt for sure.Parking: It’s a shared parking lot with a lot of other places.Kid-friendliness: You could bring your kids in hereWheelchair accessibility: It’s all on one floor so it’s easy and plenty of space“
“Epic sandwiches and generous sides of chips. Seriously not stingy at all on the ingredients, everything was delicious, with the most delicious thick homemade bread. The staff was very kind too! I’m thrilled to find this hidden gem! They do catering too!Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs and fairly easy access though no button“
“We recently moved to the area and after trying most local restaurants, pioneer has made its way to the top of our list as a reliably good quality take out meal. We haven’t done in yet, but for what we have seen, that will also be a good experience ?Kid-friendliness: The chicken tenders are more like quality breaded cutlets. My 6 year old loves them but every kid may not.“
“Wow my sandwich was delicious, Steak & Eggs, the steak melted in your mouth, the bread crispy and soft inside. Very fresh and homemade, I would go back. Only downside, there is not much room inside and for a very cold day and a tourist on a walking tour wished to be able to sit down but had to wait several minutes for a table despite the long wait for the sandwich, but the wait was worth it!“
“In a city (town) full of excellent cafes, Kestrel still manages to stand out. A big part of that is thanks to Rachel, who single handedly provides the baked goods. Or should I say baked GREATS! Folks, you cannot beat an expertly crafted caffeinated beverage paired with an out of this world scone/cookie/muffin. I recommend the denizen with a breakfast sammie (that homemade biscuit, though!)“
“Lived in Essex Junction for about a year and didn't try this place till last month. Not trying it sooner was a huge mistake! Fantastic sandwiches, the best in the aera, friendly staff, and a nice place. I'm quickly becoming a regular!“
“My wife and I visit Brio every time we visit Vermont which is as often as possible. This past October we visited before spending a day in Burlington. My wife who is not a big coffee drinker had a Calypso espresso while I a big coffee drinker went with the single origin Ethiopia Shantawene. Fast forward 4 months and I am still dreaming about that single origin espresso. I roast my own coffee at home and drink a ton of espresso and I still have not been able to recreate anything like that experience. Brio is one of the best in the business and I 100% recommend stopping while you are in the Burlington area. I hope some day to be able to pull a shot of my own coffee that can re create that experience over again. Thanks for everything you do!“
“Best in the neighborhood! Friendly staff, excellent latte and baked goods....morning muffin, ham and cheese croissant or homemade granola..its all good. Small, quaint coffee shop vibe, can get a little cramped when it's busy. Worth it♡“
“Had the most delightful experience at Cafe Mediterraneo. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that truly set the tone for our evening. Special thanks to Domenic, Deborah, Ava, Yvonne, and Emily for going above and beyond to make our Valentine's Day dinner unforgettable. Despite a mistake on our end with the reservation, they graciously accommodated us and ensured that we had a wonderful dining experience.The ambiance of Cafe Mediterraneo is charming and inviting, with cozy seating and tasteful decor that transports you to the Mediterranean coast. The menu offers a delectable array of Mediterranean-inspired dishes, each expertly prepared with fresh, flavorful ingredients. We started our meal with the bruschetta, which was bursting with vibrant flavors and served on perfectly toasted bread. For our main course we had a gnocchi dish with house made sauce and chicken Marsala , a true masterpiece of culinary artistry.To top it all off, we enjoyed a decadent dessert special of the night a strawberry cake that was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. Throughout our dining experience, the staff at Cafe Mediterraneo provided impeccable service, ensuring that every aspect of our evening was flawless. I can't recommend Cafe Mediterraneo highly enough (we come everytime we’re in Portsmouth) for anyone looking to enjoy a memorable dining experience in Portsmouth. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving exceptional cuisine, this charming restaurant is sure to exceed your expectations. Thank you to the entire team at Cafe Mediterraneo for a truly unforgettable evening.“
“Amazing views and fantastic food. The clam chowder was full of clams and had a wonderful flavor, the lobster roll was amazing and super fresh tasting with a fair amount of lobster for the $30 price tag, and the maple ham wrap was super delicious. Additionally, they have a great little shop with some local products which makes it easy to grab souvenirs for friends and family!“
“I had to do a stop over for breakfast and found this cute shop. The lady at the counter was so courteous and assist me in ordering the perfect sandwich.. I had the grilled self made roast beef sandwich. All the workers there were so nice.. I will definitely becoming back... love my coffee needed it bad.“
“This place is wonderful!! My husband and I got two sausage, egg, and cheese on their house made English muffins. This is one of the better simple breakfast sandwiches either of us have ever had. Their iced coffee is also delicious - can’t wait to try the coconut and maple donuts that we snagged for a snack later today! If you find yourself in Burlington, be sure to find yourself at Nunyun’s!“
“One of the best coffee shops I've ever been too, even after years of living in Brooklyn. They take their time with each order, and you can tell they prioritize making a good quality coffee over mass producing as many coffees as possible. They also have different drinkware when you dine-in, which is a really nice touch as most places still give you the same plastic cup either way. I cannot recommend this place enough.“
“This is great, easy, quick, and super delicious. We never go away unsatisfied. The staff and server have always been awesome. The atmosphere is great as well. There is never a rush to get you and out. It’s a great place to sit, eat, and socialize with friends and family. It very kid friendly. They are always happy to make modifications to menu items if need be. Its always treat coming here.“
“We started with L'Orangerie Bordeaux Blanc. A perfect pairing with Raw Oysters. Our friendly server, Daniel, put it together for us. The Filet Mignon entree was perfection. We finished with the Key Lime Coconut Tart. Sorry, no picture. Couldn't wait. ? Delicious! Looking forward to our next visit!“
“OMG! I was so impressed with this place! Hubby & I were attracted by the creative name of the cafe. We were out running errands & needed to get a bite for lunch. It was on our way & so we decided to check it out. This is a cafe built inside/alongside a plant nursery & garden shop. So, it is a calm & calming atmosphere from the moment you walk in just by virtue of the green plants and the nature-inspired ambience. It's a casual cafe where you order at the counter & then have a seat & they bring you your food. Choices are limited to sandwiches/wraps (served hot or cold), salads & soups. Hubby had a grilled ham & cheese with pesto sandwich. I had a half of a Champ wrap and some "Long Trail Cheddar Ale" soup. Don't ask me what all was on my Champ wrap, I can't remember except that it included turkey, cole slaw, dried cranberries and it was delicious! The soup was delicious as well and hubby really liked his sandwich too. But, not only was the food so so good, also you had a choice to eat inside, outside OR in the green house next to a man-made coy pond with a fountain and surrounded by hanging plants and potted plants. It was such a delight to eat here. Super ambience, super food AND super prices! And the people working here were so nice too! I will definitely go back here and would bring friends & family here when they visit!“

“An amazing place!! Food is outstanding. Service is amazing. Thanks to all!! Drinks were delicious. The special seafood dish was so incredible. Zero complaints here. You will not be sorry and i eat at tons of places. I’ll be back again when im town.“
“I always stop here when I use the Planet Fitness next door and get my amazing homemade biscuit, egg, ham, and cheese sandwich with a matcha green tea ? They have a large seating area and lots of tasty treats, sandwiches and coffee drinks. Definitely check these guys out!!!“
“I ordered the bacon egg & cheese croissant sandwich and a small maple latte to fuel my long & grueling day as an art vendor. The sandwich was large & filling & really great (worth the extra couple bucks for the croissant). The latte was well made and was a little on the sweet side, but the maple flavor was really prominent“
“staff is very nice. they seem understaffed/very busy a lot of the times. I recommend, if you place an order for pick up, to come earlier than the time. Sometimes I come right on time, and its already cold, which if you get fries, they wont be the same after the microwave. it is understandable but that is just some feedback as room for growth. everything else, im happy with and come here quite often.Parking: on weekdays, it can be quite easy to find parking around lunchtime.Wheelchair accessibility: there is a lift inside the store. fully ADA business. kudos!“
“Music forward spot that's eccentric in a good way. While the live bands were switching set-ups (4 bands were playing the night we were there), the DJ in the other connected room was jamming. You can float between the two separate spaces as you want, with bars in each. There is some seating, but it's mostly standing room with a definite college crowd...although that probably had to do with the bands that were playing while we were there which were VT alumni.“
“Was so lucky to see a post about Sweet Alchemy on a Vegan FB page and then remembered it was near where we were wandering on Saturday. The whole menu was vegan. Got the Rainbow Bowl and the breakfast bowl. They were both amazing. Great flavor, so filling. Then we got the carrot cake cupcakes for dessert. OMG!!“
“Every two or three weeks, for years now, I've gotten 2 lb of Italian roast whole bean coffee at speeder and earls. Although those helping me come and go as they graduate from college or move on to other jobs The young people who work in this coffee shop have always been very laid back and very helpful. The atmosphere in the coffee shop is the same, laid back and inviting. The Italian roast is fabulous. I'm getting ready to go spend 3 months down south to get out of Vermont's winter and one of the things that I know I will not enjoy about being in Augusta Georgia is that nobody, and over the last 3 years I've tried a bunch of them, has Italian roast to match the Italian roast at speeder and earls.“
“Carrier has a nice little corner on the way into Jake's ONE Market in Burlington's North End. The barista was friendly and answered our questions about the various beverages available. I had a single-origin drip coffee that was bright and delicious. My wife had the GOAT, which consisted of espresso, milk, caramel, and some sea salt. Something like this could have easily been too sweet or salty, but instead it was perfectly balanced. I wish I had purchased some of their roasted coffee to take home.“
“I enjoy working from here and the pastries and espresso drinks are great, but I had a cup of the drip coffee today for the first time and it was way too caffeinated I feel really sick from it. I didn't realize while I was drinking it just how strong it was but this feels dangerous that I'm this wired and jittery from just one cup after 6 hours when I normally have a pretty high tolerance for caffeine. If you have any kind of health issues or caffeine sensitivities be careful!“
“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.“
“Ordered 2 banh mi. Was a little disappointed I got lightly toasted sub rolls/kaiser rolls instead of a baguette style roll. Upon seeing other pics around here.They may have just run out of the baguettes when I ordered. Will try again.The filling/meat was great, if they were in a baguette, then the sandwiches would have been excellant.“
