Which mind you an almond croissant is simply a day old croissant that is split in half and filled with almond past and rebaked. They had been out of coffee and almond croissants that day and I don't know about the ambiance for that day. However I do know that the croissant we got was not fresh it was stale and the didn't have an airy flaky texture that true butter laminated croissants are supposed to have. It tastes like they used a cheap subpar butter and have burnt the croissant. The breakfast burrito was also badly wrapped and leaking everywhere and had for some god awful reason been filled with hard boiled eggs instead of scrambled eggs which only made it harder to handle.

Super cute cafe with friendly staff.

Terrible service considering the place was empty. I ordered at the register and was told to sit in…read morethe dining room and it would be brought to me. 3 people working yet the wait was going on 20 minutes when I went back up to the register. The cashier and the 'cook' were putting the sandwich on a plate when they saw me. They both glared at me for daring to do this. Instead of bringing the sandwich to me the cashier wanted to know what I wanted. I should have said 'my sandwich.' i Just asked if it was ready. She then asked if I wanted something else, like I had no business there. I said no and took the sandwich. I ordered a BLT, which was barely toasted, and it tasted like a lettuce and tomato sandwich. When I opened it I found what amounted to 2 strips of the thinnest, dry, broken up slices of bacon imaginable. The cup of cheddar soup was tiny. I was still hungry 30 minutes after I left and got some fast food. They probably ate most of what was supposed to go in the sandwich. Disgusted by the nasty attitude and RIP OFF of $15.00. I could have gotten a nice meal for that amount at the nearby Texas Roadhouse. A couple days later I called to complain and the Gardeners Supply manager wanted to field the call even though they don't manage the cafe, saying the manager was a 'close friend' of hers and she would relay my complaint. When I explained what happened her response was she would let him know. I asked if that was it and she said yes. It wasn't until I challenged that did she take my name and number. Both places will be sunk before too long, especially now that Gardens Alive bought out Gardeners. The buyer for GS must have changed because it's all mediocre goods now. Don't waste your time and money.

While researching breakfast spots in Essex Junction for our weekend getaway, we came across…read moreUncommon Coffee and were encouraged by the strong reviews. When we arrived, the parking lot was busy, which felt like a great sign. It was a Saturday morning, so there was a short wait to order and to grab a table, but the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. The interior is eclectically decorated and has a cozy, fun vibe that reminded us of the coffee shop in the Friends TV show. We ordered a brewed coffee and an iced coffee--both were excellent--and really appreciated the option of Vermont maple syrup and oat milk. For food, we ordered a regular breakfast sandwich and the Forager vegan breakfast sandwich. We were especially impressed to see a vegan breakfast option on the menu, as many places don't cater to vegans at all, particularly for breakfast. Both sandwiches were delicious, and it was great to feel so thoughtfully accommodated. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and would happily recommend Uncommon Coffee to friends. We just wish it were closer to home so we could visit more often!

Well, I want to edit my previous review. After trying their cold brew a few more times, I must say…read morethat it's just very strong. I doubt they forgot to dilute it every time I've been there, which means I was just too sensitive to the caffeine. That being said, be prepared for a very intense caffeine high. The $3.50 cold brew packs a serious punch. The flavor is excellent, very full and intense with a buzz that lasts 4 hours! I can barely finish a cup without watering it down. I'll also say that the wait time is usually pretty good; I'm in and out with my coffee within a minute or two. They also accept Samsung pay, which is nice. Having a coffee shop/roaster this close to the gym is super convenient, especially a place with owners who really seem to have a passion about coffee. Note: the selection still seems pretty limited, but that may improve once they have a more permanent location (if that's happening?).
