Hidden gem with serious speakeasy vibes…read more The 126 is everything you want in a cocktail bar--cozy, classy, and tucked away behind a deli door on College Street. The drinks are expertly crafted (with or without alcohol), the jazz is smooth and never too loud, and the vintage lounge atmosphere makes it perfect for a date or a quiet night out. Service is warm, the music is live, and the vibes are unbeatable. Burlington doesn't have many places like this--don't miss it.

The atmosphere is very chill and comfortable with high back seating at the tables. I ordered the 126 Martini, which was excellent and had a soothing hint of lemon to the drink and garnished with one olive. We also ordered the Staycation, which was amazing. The flavors all blended together for a balanced craft cocktail that served up to its name. There was a jazz band coming on at 9 pm, but we had reservations somewhere else. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful cocktail bar within walking distance of Church Street. Stopped in on Sunday night and our…read moreparty of three was seated immediately. The cocktail menu is expansive with something for everyone. We went with the "I'm Eggnogstic" which was "a decadent custard with maple syrum, bourbon and rum, & whipped egg whites". We also got a hot drink called "Hot Buttered Yum" which consisted of Flor de Cana 5yr rum, brownie batter, cinnamon, butter, brown sugar, and was topped with toasted marshmallows. Both drinks were delicious, prepared well, and were aesthetically pleasing as well. I wish the Eggnogstic was a little larger - I think it was about 3 ounces? The Hot Buttered Yum was served in an oversized mug. The vibe here was great - perfect place for couples, a girls night, or just friends out for a before dinner or after dinner drink. I loved that it was busy enough, but still quiet enough for a conversation.

We sat at the bar and relaxed - it was pretty quiet and we had the place mostly to ourselves for most of our visit. I ordered the raspberry shrub highball, Nate got the corn 'n oil, and my friend got the maple bourbon sour. It was fun watching the bartender mixing up our drinks, and she answered any questions we had. Very chill spot, and the drinks were tasty. I loved the super refreshing highball. They do serve snack boards and flights as well as their cocktails. I'm glad we stopped in and would come back again in the future!

An Exquisite Culinary Experience…read more Rogue Rabbit in Burlington is nothing short of exquisite. I rate places by their category, and this one earns my highest marks in the three most important categories: food, drinks, and overall experience very fun casual atmosphere. The pizza was a masterpiece. Thick, insanely fresh dough was complemented by a decadently sweet-savory tomato sauce and topped with a perfect combination of savory sausage, sweet onion, and ricotta. Simply scrumptious. The drink menu is tight but brilliantly creative. I started with the Good Catastrophe (Brandy, Italicus, Lemon, Turbines, Orange Bitters)--exquisite. I followed it with the mind-blowing Via Con Dio (Rye, Ramazotti, Honey, Strawberry and espresso). Topping all this off was the wait staff and Mary, a wizard/artist at drink mixing. The staff and the patrons made this, along with the food and drink, one of the best holistic dining experiences I've had in years. Astounding and exquisite.

Also had the special coconut/mint lemonade--also great! Lovely staff and comfy vibe too. Well worth the price for an amazing lunch.

Certainly drinks are the main things at this bar in Burlington. Drink Bar has quite a few. It also…read morehas a small food menu. For sure it's been a long time favorite around here. The bar is kind of dark, and it gives an old school kind of vibe. Be sure to check out when the specials are. It's got lots of daily ones. These can be big time money savers. It's $7 for margaritas on Mondays. Maybe these aren't that big, but these can be pretty strong. Food menu isn't as impressive. It's $9 for the Blistered Shishito Peppers. Probably the healthiest food item, because the rest is mostly greasy fried things. Good hot flavor. They also have chicken tenders if looking for meats. For a bar in the middle of town it seems pretty quiet inside. It's farther away from the college, so maybe that could be a reason. The prices are pretty good on drinks and food, and it's not crowded most times.

I was almost going to give LCLS 4 stars because, from an artist's standpoint, it suffers from the…read moreplague of Burlington venues that are usually tips based for paying artists...that being said I just love this room too much to not give it the full 5. There's no other small music venue I have been too that has the same ambience and vibe as Light Club. They wrangle in some pretty great artists both local and touring (seen loads of friends here as well as Sean Watkins of Nickelcreek and Tom Brosseau plus found a host of new favorites). Food is from next door at Duino and it's fantastic. Beer list is pretty good (all bottles and cans) and the drink menu is inventive and delicious. They just recently opened up and raise the two front tables by the window which I am still indifferent about. I thought it was cool before because people could "take in" the music but still have a quiet conversation without being rude to the performers. Need to check out another show there before making that call. I love this room whether its packed or it's just me, the performer and the bartender (which sadly has happened before). Burlington just needs to get out and see more music and this is the place to do it.

We had a group of six, so they sat us in the private room on the second floor. Very friendly staff and the service was great. We tried a variety of cocktails, all unique in their own ways. As everything on the menu sounded delicious and the menu rotates, we decided to order almost one of each item and share plates. They paced the delivery of the dishes, so we got to enjoy them a few at a time. With the exception of one unremarkable vegetarian dish, we loved everything we tasted. We skipped dessert, as we filled up on the small plates and main dishes. We'll definitely return to this restaurant.

Burlington local, first time going to Frankie's. Only hear good things about it…read more Pros: service, quality/freshness of food The service was top notch from when we first entered until we left. We were immediately greeted and seated. They helped take our coats/hang them for us. We were always closely attended to and given time if more was needed. The homemade pasta dish we got with greens and mushrooms was fantastic! My bf liked the shrimp appetizer/smaller dish and we all liked the trout, but it seemed a little mushy/overcooked. Cons: loud/bad acoustics, dim, portion size(only for one specific dish) A little hard to hear inside when it's at peak capacity. Was at dinner with a group of four and it was quite hard to hear the person diagonally across from me the entire night. Lighting was a little too dim for my personal liking but others may not mind(for example, it was darker inside than it was outside at 6pm). Food was overall very good. The disappointments were a clam dish we couldn't even first find any clams in and then the two people who got them when we divided up the dish only got two each! And the side greens, seemed overcooked and were over-salted. Would definitely try it again would recommend to others.

There are a lot of things that I like about Orlando's when compared to other local bars…read more 1. Their mixed drinks are made consistently well. Many bars in the area pour especially strong or especially weak drinks that are not consistent, and that can make it hard to keep track of how much you're drinking. At Orlando's, the strength of my mixed drinks remains the same each time. The bartenders are professional, knowledgeable, and swift. 2. Their cocktail offerings are fun! They do some unique offerings with fun seasonal stuff that really gets you in the spirit of the season. Some other reviews mention that they don't have an extensive wine list-- it's not really that type of place. It's sort of like a classy pub, not a high end hotel bar. Expect to find cool cocktails and a moderate beer selection. 3. The vibes are cool! It's very speakeasy-underground-cool vibes. It's dark inside with old fashioned lamps and various types of seating, both at the bar and at tables. Some tables have old fashioned bar games at them like ring and hook. They have a stage for live music and a small space for dancing. I will say the one downside of Orlando's is that when they're doing music, either live or over speakers, it's so loud that it's hard to be social there.
