Everything was delicious Kid friendly. Saw a few very happy babies there. I loved my bahn mi w pork and watermelon juice. My little guy's grilled cheese was so delicious he ate the crust. My non sandwich loving daughter enjoyed her chocolate pancakes and even tried and enjoyed bacon for the first time. New place To stop in way back from Vermont read more

Excellent. Great food. Lovely vibe. A little off the path but so worth it. Highly recommend ! read more

fresh unique and super friendly staff. The eggs Benedict were very spicy with a very unique flavor that was super delicious. The coffee was fresh and hot. I even got a free refill. So gracious! The ambiance was airy, plenty of space what seens to be an old train station, and plenty of room outside to sit. Definitely a worthwhile stop that is off the main street but worth a try. Recommended. read more

This spot is extraordinary. If this cafe was in NYC, there'd be lines out the door, people would flip, Michelin stars galore for this warm, zen, causal gem! Both the breakfast sandwich with their homemade English muffin brisket and avocado and their banh mi were the best I've ever had. Talent exuding from this kitchen!!! The sauces, the juiciness, the flavor, the freshness, like no place else. Please make your way to NY! Cannot wait to come back to Vermont and come here. Telling everybody! 5 stars!!!! read more

Tucked away from downtown, Cafe Noa has ample parking, a large & light filled cafe, and an impressive menu of items for breakfast and lunch. The banh mi was flavorful and hearty. Offered with pulled pork or tempeh, the crusty baguette, flavorful kimchi and sriracha mayo combined to create quite a tasty sandwich. Served with a small side of ruffled potato chips, it's about 5 dollars more than one would pay at a mom and pop spot in Seattle or SF, but it was as delicious. The Chicken Cesar salad hit the spot, with its warm, thinly chopped chicken. I think the crotons were homemade but I could be wrong. It wasn't out of this world (a zest of lemon and fresh parmesan would do wonders) but it was dressed lightly and was an abundant portion. This cafe has everything going for it and with a few easy upgrades, it could easy be a 5 star experience. Little touches, such as serving meals on real plates and bowls instead of disposals, upgraded bathrooms, rearranged tables, and a clearer and more efficient way to order (the chalk menu inside the entrance creates a bottleneck) would elevate Cafe Noa and make it a true destination for locals and visitors alike. Worth a return visit, for sure. read more

The Montpelier locals are lucky!!! I drove out of my way to have lunch here, and it was worth it. Went with the brisket, and it was one of the best sandwiches of my life. I will be dreaming of that sandwich from Denver. Never would have thought to add pickled onions and red peppers to brisket, but it all worked beautifully. At $20 it's a pricey sandwich, but well worth it. Comes with a side of chips. Honestly, I may detour through on my way to BTV just to eat here again. It was that good! read more

Care Noa has THE BEST SANDWICHES in Montpelier. The care and thought that go into them is unparalleled. I have some dietary restrictions and not only do they have options like gluten free bread and tempeh, they also happily customized a sandwich to fit my unique needs. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Also, their indoor and outdoor seating is spacious and plentiful. Wait times are non-existent to reasonable. Prices are fair. Thanks so much Cafe Noa! read more

WOW. Got the breakfast sandwich- read online their breakfast sandwiches were the best in the city of Montpelier and was made with homemade English muffins, and this did not disappoint! I ordered the breakfast sandwich with tempeh- easily the best tempeh I've ever eaten, and even my friend who doesn't like tempeh loved it. Also ordered with avocado, and it came sliced thinly and was fresh, just how I like it!! read more

Cafe Noa - Breakfast sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Montpelier, Vermont

I love this place, but always forget about it. The food is really excellent--I love everything I've had here, which has included breakfast sandwiches, a turkey sandwich, and the tuna melt. The space is great for hanging out with friends or working. The staff is wonderful. However, the music is unendurably grating--cheesy canned piano tracks that drone on and on. Also, sometimes you can hear different music coming from the kitchen at the same time--generally this is much better music!!! It is really disorienting and awful to hear the two at once. I have had to leave because of this. read more

Lovely spacious spot with good coffee and abundant breakfast offerings. We had the breakfast special of scrambled eggs avocado on a croissant. Very generous portion , tasty and reasonably priced. Nice outdoor seating, not much of a view but pleasant atmosphere read more

Good place for breakfast and to experience Stonecutters Way. The B.E.L.T. was amazing breakfast sandwich. I'll definitely come back and try one of the other many delights. Iced latte was delicious too. The staff and owner were great hosts. read more

Currently the only brunch spot in Montpelier, very solid with a consistently delicious eggs benedict. Friendly service, good variety, and everything can be customized. The Masala chai is authentic and delicious. Live music on a recent Saturday was a pleasant surprise. read more

Came here from out of state looking for random hole in the wall type eateries. This fit the bill exactly. It's off a random po-dunk road in a random small po-dunk town. It's a bit overwhelming at first as you're supposed to read the big chalk board menu on the wall and then go to the counter to order your food and then take a table. My partner got an English muffin breakfast sandwich and I got the bánh mì pulled pork sandwich. I've had these from non Vietnamese eateries before and they've been terrible, this one was quite exceptional and delicious. An authentic banh mi usually does not have pulled pork but this was a very nice and respectful tangy fresh twist to a favorite sandwich. My partner mentioned their item was also quite excellent and had notable freshness. Please note food is made to order and they get quite busy so it helps to be patient.Go around or before noon for easy seating! read more

My son and I had the best breakfast sandwich we have ever had. We have lived on the seacoast in New England, Bellingham, WA , Orcas Wa, and driven across the country too many times. We have experienced a lot of breakfast sandwiches in the USA. When we walked through the door we were greeted by a man((Amid), spelling may not be correct) talking with two women. The two women were giving Amid credit for the food he made and how the cafe felt. The English muffins are made by Amid. The setting was great. It was slightly off the beaten path but still very close to downtown Montpelier. read more

There's a whole lotta magic going on in this little kitchen! Was back in Vermont visiting family and did a quick lookup for where to grab lunch and saw some great looking sandwiches on Google The Pastrami sandwich and brisket sandwich were both delicious. Nice atmosphere with lots of searing and friendly staff Will come back and definitely recommend checking out this new spot, can't wait to see what it looks like in the summer! read more

Incredibly slow service. It took 40 minutes to get eggs, toast, and bacon. The food was decent once it arrived, but certainly not worth the wait. read more

The person who took my order was very sullen and appeared annoyed when I asked for a glass of water. I had not noticed it when I entered. I was looking forward to my order of eggs Benedict which may have been great but it was served on a paper plate with plastic forks. The sauce was picking up the flavor of the paper plate. The eggs were tiny like the kind from bantam hens. read more

Eggs badly overcooked. Bacon was oversalted. Toast was grilled not toasted. I didn't finish my meal. No table service.

Amazing food, cool industrial space. Staff are nice, professional and accommodating. I could eat here every day!

Delicious, high quality and creative food - A very nice, engaged owner is on site, checking on things and working to train new employees We had a bâhn mi sandwich. It was scrumptious. Generous amount of pork and fillings and a very nice baguette. Also had BELT (bacon, egg, lettuce, tomato) which was toasted perfectly and very very good. The prices seem a little high, but the portions are large. You may be able to share a sandwich (unless you are starving). Location -- It is in a tucked-away location: watch for the signs - gps gives good directions. read more

Really delicious sandwiches. I had a veg banh mi with tempeh and it was very very good. The open air experience was really nice with the train tracks right beside the restaurant. It seemed like there was only one cook so it took a little longer, but the owner was very accommodating. read more

I highly recommend the vegetarian tempeh Bánh mì - (the meat version is very good too!) The tempeh has a lovely umami richness and sweetness balanced by the tartness of the pickled ingredients. This is not a traditional Banh mi sandwich, but that is the charm of this place, mixing various traditions together, including Indian, Japanese and tasty American options (and of course "traditional" Banh mi is essentially a Vietnamese fusion food, combining a French baguettte with Vietnamese ingredients). Also very nice owners who work very hard and are very friendly and attentive. Support your locally owned businesses in Montpelier! This is a great choice for a pleasant breakfast or lunch, and it is a short walk from "bustling" downtown Montpelier, across the street from Hunger Mountain Coop. read more
