Review summary and list
The lemon ricotta pancakes are worth the Sunday wait. We put our name in, walked the marketplace for twenty minutes, and the text came right on time.
Marisol FerranteOld North End · Weekend brunchI work from the Pine Street communal table twice a week. Good light, outlets that work, and nobody makes you feel guilty about a second cortado.
Devon AchterbergSouth End · Coffee & drinksThe cardamom knot is the best thing in Chittenden County and I will argue about it. Get there before nine on a Saturday.
Priya RaghunathanWinooski · Bakery counterWe ordered the meeting box for a 8:15 am board meeting. It arrived at 7:50, set up, coffee already hot. Three people asked who catered it.
Tomas BelliveauBurlington · CateringThe maple hash has been exactly the same for six years, which is the highest compliment I can give a breakfast plate. Loses a star only because parking downtown is what it is.
Nell OkoroNew North End · BreakfastOrdered an olive oil and citrus cake for my mother's seventieth. They did a tasting box first, then delivered it on a stand. She cried, in the good way.
Gabriel StastnyEssex Junction · Custom cakesTurkey, apple and cheddar on their sourdough. I have eaten it probably ninety times. The bread is the whole thing.
Hanne LindqvistBurlington · LunchSix stools at the window over the falls. I get there at 7:05 to claim one. The espresso is dialled better than anywhere I have been in Vermont.
Andre ToussaintWinooski · Coffee & drinksBrought eight people for a birthday, booked a week ahead, one check, no drama. The hash benedict is enormous. Wait at peak is real though.
Rachel VandermeerShelburne · Weekend brunchI reserve a country sourdough every Friday. They hold it until two, they never forget, and the crust is genuinely dark the way it should be.
Jonas EkwuemeBurlington · Bakery counterBrunch spread for a baby shower, twenty-four people. Trays stayed hot, they lit the chafers, and someone came back for the equipment. Easiest thing I booked.
Simone BhattacharyaSouth Burlington · CateringPlain and perfect: egg, butter, salt, six dollars. Somebody in that kitchen understands restraint.
Luc MoreauOld North End · Breakfast

The case is fullest between 6:30 and 8:30, the room is calmest after 1:30, and the coffee is the same all day.
