    The cupcake
    Brittany H.

    This cocktail place had such a cool vibe. The bartender knows his stuff and the staff were so friendly. These are definitely craft cocktails, the bartender takes his time for these creations. All of the flavors are unique. I got the Bikini Atoll, which was a rum based drink. My husband got the chilled monkey brains! If you're a fan of Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom, get that! We also got their cupcakes, it was delicious and on theme.

    This place! We were walking to a different destination and saw the sandwich board out front and decided to check it out. We sat at the bar and thought it was such a cool vibe inside. Ordered several of their signature cocktail drinks and were impressed. You can tell they have a creative and dedicated staff. Definitely check this place out for cool cocktail creations!

    Always funky good music, eclectic art work, delicious cocktails. Quite loud but otherwise a really fun spot that makes unique and incredibly tasty cocktails. They also offer food, which tends to be dishes on the smaller portion side of things, but are incredibly good and freshly made!

    sexting on the beach

    Devil Takes a Holiday is an awesome, moody cocktail lounge with an extensive cocktail list (all delicious, all creative) and perfect light bites. I ordered a Sexting on the Beach (vodka, oak-infused peach liqeur, sour orange, cranberry cordial), and heard the I Like it When You Call Me Big Poppy was akin to limoncello. Each cocktail has a brief description explaining the flavor in a fun and irreverent way. They have a variety of light bites, including fries, olives, deviled eggs, and bread and butter, but I opted for the tinned fish (smoked trout), that came with banana peppers, lemon wedges, mustard seed, sourdough toasted in olve oil, red pepper flakes, and flaky sea salt. YUM! A great cocktail bar in downtown Burlington!

    "Beet with the Stir" was a great cocktail.

    Don't want to be rude but online said they were open until 11pm. I got there at 10, ordered a drink. Ordered a second drink at 10:13 and the bartender told me it was last call on cocktails so I could only beer and wine after. I watched 6 people come in at 10:20pm to 10:30 come in thinking they were open to be told they were closed. Lox croquettes were mid. Not sure why they closed early when people were walking in. Was at The 126 before and it was packed. Went to Wallflower Collective and it was packed too. Hope the owner knows the bar is costing them business....

    Really cool spot -- perfect to match the Halloween season. I got a Thai iced tea cocktail with whipped coconut milk on top. The presentation was fab. The only thing I'd change up is the crushed ice... didn't like that it absorbs much of the drink.

    Came in here for a quick drink while shopping in downtown Burlington and before dinner the other night. The ambiance is great and offers a very unique vibe but if you're someone who doesn't appreciate dark restaurants this may not be the place for you. The menu is very extensive as far as drinks go and they offer so many different crazy concoctions. To be honest when I came in I wasn't feeling anything out of the ordinary and just got an old fashioned. The drink was okay but also nothing to write home about. Over all it was an okay experience and I think this is a great spot if you just want to grab a drink with friends. The service is good and seemed friendly!

    Yo, this place is fresh. Hella good drinks, chill staff and good music. Maybe that's not your thing and I totally get it, peace to you. But if is your thing, come and partake of the aromas. Peace!

    Hot Buttered YUM. Delicious! Absolutely get this. Rum, marshmallows, brownie bits at the bottom, with a spoon. Has non-alcoholic version.

    5 stars because of the insanely good drink-- Hot buttered yum It's also nice that it has a non-alcoholic option if you want although I did get the rum. It was an ample pour. 5/5. Would get this again and probably would ask them to put extra brownie at the bottom if possible. Marshmallows were perfect. Nice for a winter evening.

    I like it when you call me big poppy... delicious!

    See all

    I had some stellar drinks here, including a sort-of gin martini that might actually get me into gin martinis!

    Website says open-walked in almost subzero temps to enjoy a cocktail and it's dark. Not open. Very sad.

    A sister restaurant to Foam Brewers!…read more We spent a weekend in Burlington, VT visiting breweries, wine bars, a comedy show, eating, shopping and it was wonderful. Deep City was a recommendation for brunch from a local. It is the sister restaurant to Foam Brewers (right next door). When we walked in there was a small wait but not bad. We headed over to the brewery to grab coffee and to check it out. It is definitely a cool spot. They have a huge selection of beer, a small wine program (who knew) and small bites. Unfortunately they did not have TVs or else we would've come back to watch the football game but we did purchase some beer before heading back over for brunch at Deep City. The menu here is a little more Mexican-forward think Huevos Rancheros, but there was still plenty of items that looked appealing. We split the banana bread with maple walnut cream cheese (to die for) to share as an app which was fresh and delicious. I also ordered a fruit cup which was also good. We then shared their Huevos Verdes which is similar to Huevos Rancheros except it came with a tomatillo salsa. It was good but very sloppy to eat. Overall it was a great experience, and service was phenomenal. A great brunch place while visiting Burlington VT.

    I loved this spot! I was sad to see that Penny Cluse has closed since the last time we were in the…read morearea, but discovered that Deep City is some kind of new iteration, and I'm so glad we decided to stop in for brunch. First of all, they have a parking lot, which is free to park in, which was super convenient. The menu is interesting and everything sounded so good, including the daily features (duck hash, yum)! It made it super difficult to decide what to order, but we eventually settled on the biscuits and herb gravy, the across the pond, a side of the cheesy kale, the polenta breakfast dish, and the trout and eggs. Our server was super patient and kind and the food was amazing. I don't usually like biscuits and gravy that much, but their vegetarian gravy was so tasty. It reminded me a bit of broccoli cheddar soup in the best way, and the biscuits were flaky. I'd had the English breakfast plate at Penny Cluse before, and this one was even better. I loved the mushrooms and the sausage. The cornmeal crusted trout on the trout and eggs plate was crispy and not fishy at all, and the best trout I've ever tried. I loved that everything we ordered was so saucy since I'm a big sauce girl. This place is high on my list to revisit when I'm back in Burlington!
