The best step on our drive to Montreal. Roast beef and almond tart were incredible. Creemee is so smooth, doesn’t really taste like maple though. Service outstanding. Such kind staff
This review is of the baguette. I didn’t purchase anything else. This place is charming with a nice staff. For reference I am a traveller. I have been to Paris, Alsace, Germany, Austria, Italy and simply put too many places to list. I love my baguettes as it’s part of a healthy diet and thus I have tried them all over. I do not say this lightly. Simply put its the best baguette I have tried on this planet. My gripe is it’s a three hour drive so I probably will only make a day of it once a year to drive and get one. Charming place with a great idea. Keep up the good work and please always keep these in stock because I don’t want the next long drive to end in disappointment. These make one heck of a sandwich! I am writing this a little late as it’s almost time for a spring road trip for another.
From the moment we walked in and welcomed by the smell of freshly baked bread, I knew all the other positive reviews were right, this place is the real deal. Their croissant sandwich was the best I’ve tried this year. It was beautifully layered with a crunchy outside and soft on the inside. However, the bakery can get quite busy and the small parking lot was full during our visit at lunch time.
The staff was efficient, respectful, and friendly. The baked goods were outstanding, as was the hot chocolate, and the maple ice cream was the best I've ever had!! The entire store oozed respect of environmental causes (ex: no plastic) and strived to offer comfort and warmth. Wish it was closer to Ohio!
Excellent. Great new location in Montpelier! Delicious bread, pastries AND creemees.
Amazing place, the Breakfast Croissant is fantastic with ham! The meats are a cut above the standard Faire at most other small biz cafes, and as someone who appreciate a nice flaky croissant, the sandwhich did not disappoint! Get there early for the croissant the fresher the better! Lots of amazing breads to choose from as well as coffees and local jams, syrups and honey. If you are looking to bring back taste of vermont on your way thru town this is worth the stop They also sell their own flours if you like to bake at home. Everything looks amazingly well crafted and that rustic cafe vibe was on point. Perfect way to unwind in between busy appointments.
I am completely delighted with the gorgeous space, kind service, delicious coffee (and cappuccino) and the local flour that makes these delicious treats possible. Everything about the experience has me coming back for more. If you don’t want bread or gluten, there are soups, buckwheat cookies and salads. This week’s Earl Grey Creemee flavor is one of my favorites
I am so happy this high quality bakery and coffee shop opened here! I am delighted with the long hours! Workers seem happy, please keep taking good care of them!!
Fantastic bread! I got the turkey cranberry sandwich this most recent time and got the Kermit (grilled cheese) last time. Both were amazing but you can't really go wrong when the bread is so good. The lunch rush can be a bit intense but the service is fairly speedy!
Fantastic coffee and great bread. Sandwiches were great as well! All around around great place. Also side note for the owner. Love the policy that you don’t accept tips and that the prices include a living wage. I usually tip at minimum 15%+ but in this tip crazy world I have seen more and more default tip displaying 25, 30, 35% and then I feel bad when I edit the amount.
