To the right is a room for hosting an event, such as the VT Womenpreneur Conference I attended. There is room for 50 chairs, a food table, and in the very back, a bar. It is a warm and inviting venue and the staff was very helpful and friendly. If you work remotely, it's a great space to meet others, work outside of the house in a convivial and communal environment.

Didnt even get to play a game because they created so many issues for us. Both myself and my date were more than displeased, I had to split my sandwhich. we came hungry and left hungry with a side of bad taste in our mouth from the owners rude attitude and lack of business ethics. Food bad, basic food that's overly expensive, small portions except for large portions of cheap bad ingredients chips. They don't know the difference between spring mix and sauted spinach or was just very old, slimy, wilted. We regret choosing this place. Ridiculous experience and business owner who certainly does not have any education or experience around food or business. As someone who's worked in both I'm disgusted by this experience, especially coming from the owner. She wouldnt even remake the sandwich or ma a different one which either way would have been cheaper than the one she had to take off the bill and throw away anyway. so they knew we left hungry and continued being rude. The owner said if she remade it then you'd be getting a free one. there was 2 bites taken out of the sandwich and the second was very forced after trying to take out the spinach which was not spring mix. they didn't try to make things right when we let go split my sandwich and both looked upset to even be there. we wanted to leave and honestly should have. I called today and the owner started raising her voice telling me that she said she'd make it when clearly that did not happen. You don't raise your voice when you're talking about an issue you created for someone else and not only didn't fix but continue to keep making more havoc. We just wanted a meal and to play a game. Neither of which happened- Did leave feeling played, but not the right kind haha- Do not give this business your money.

Tickets were only about $11 online, so I booked us for the last show of the night. We checked in when we arrived and grabbed a drink at the bar.

If you want to order more drinks or snacks during the show you can do it via the QR code right at your table. We liked the soft pretzels and the drinks were very tasty! The show itself was entertaining and we had plenty of laughs. It was a welcoming space and everyone we interacted with was so nice.

I will have to be more on the lookout for the various showings that they have - They do monthly free movie screenings (Blade Runner and Terminator are a couple that caught my sci-fi loving eye) so be sure to check their webpage for some seriously fun events! They also are host to the Vermont International Film Festival and other Burlington Film Society showings!

The space and furnishings were extremely flexible, and the staff was over the top helpful. Our 150 plus guests had plenty of room to sit, mingle and dance the night away. The inhouse sound and lighting were perfect. (We did bring our own disco ball!) The price, access to the site and parking were added benefits in the Burlington area. We highly recommend this venue and this team!

After a very personal encounter with the studio owners, it became clear to me that despite their…read moreuse of world cultures to promote an image of consciousness and allegiance with the community, the owners of the study are not operating from a critical space. And this happens. Sometimes people travel the world and 'acquire' culture (a colonial practice) and still never come to learn about what it means to see others as fully human, what discrimination looks like (even when we mean well), how men can demean and ridicule women in public spaces, etc. It's to say, while they use their travels and world 'culture' to perpetuate an image of awareness, the content of that awareness itself (an anti-colonial, anti-racist, anti-sexist platform) is nonexistent. That was revealed in the way I was treated by the owners. I was, in practice, denied the safe use of a space they confirmed was available. They shared the details of the event I was planning (that I gave during a private phone conversation) with DSantosVT, which is a private and separate dance company. They did this without my consent and without informing me. They at no point offered the space to rent to me (days passed) until I mentioned the legalities, at which time they said 'if you drop the legality talk, we'll let you' I had an encounter where I felt I had been treated unfairly and unprofessionally. I also let them know I worry about the legalities of their actions. I didn't say this to be a 'stick in his side' or be a nuisance. I said this because I was looking for avenues of protection when it became clear the studio was not against acting in a discriminatory fashion. Not only that, they were unable to identify and rectify an issue of discrimination. So, I thought it was wise to at least try to call them to act professionally/legally. That didn't work at all. They did not see any issue of discrimination or lack of professionalism. I should note, by this point I had shared the experience with various people in my community, all of which agreed that it was unfair, biased, and unprofessional. So, when I asked them if they saw a problem, and Ben and April said no I knew it wasn't me. I knew they didn't know how to recognize an issue of unfairness/racism/discrimination/colonialism, and they were more invested in dismissing me than they were in hearing me and understanding my perspective. They told me repeatedly 'this is how things work' and 'we're a tight knit community.' Here are some of the things the studio owner said to me, a black woman trying to teach a black art form in his studio. I asked him if I could record. When he refused, I continued to take careful notes as I was verbally attacked after raising concerns about the studio's professionalism. Here are parts of the meeting I found concerning: 1. Ben ridiculed me before I spoke saying 'do you want your podium now?' 2. Ben compared letting me rent an available space to putting a porn shop in the front. 3. Ben said I had a chip on my shoulder. 4. Ben said I had a hidden agenda. 5. April said at the end of the meeting that I'll be 'sorry and sad,' which sounded like a threat. 6. Ben called me out of my name. He said "you are... blank" using a negative adjective to label me. As you can see from these responses, the studio owners clearly believed that I took joy in having to protect myself from them. That this was some type of 'spotlight' or 'agenda' that I was carrying out. When I told them I felt they had behaved in discriminatory fashion, they felt that I was the nuisance and bother. They felt they were somehow the victims. This is how white supremacy protects itself. That's well researched and documented. Despite being 'world travelers' it's clear they haven't found this literature. I think it is very unfortunate that I have been prevented from feeling safe in a studio that claims to provide services for underserved communities. I think it is sad that when a member of that community spoke of unfairness, she was ridiculed. And then, to add insult to injury, their business is based entirely off of selling the art forms of poor people of color (kizomba, african dance, etc). I will not be returning to this studio ever again. I wanted to share because I know often as people of color, we feel these microaggressions from people we perceive to have power. We rarely mention it, and when we do, if they don't see a problem, we assume it's in our heads. We assume that if we can't put words to it, or can't explain it then it must not be real. We assume that if they tell us 'this is how things work' or 'i meant well' that we should let it go. But that's not true. Sometimes people act in discriminatory, imperial ways and don't realize it, and won't be held accountable. I encourage other people of color and those who understand this message to discontinue business with North End and find more radical spaces invested in truly uplifting our communities, rather than exploiting our cultural productions.

It's a relatively small aquarium and has small gift shop at the entrance. There are 2 floors consist of small tanks of sea creatures and fishes and science interactive games. It was entertaining but we got through the entire place in 30-45min. Staffs were nice overall and friendly. As an adult we paid 23$ per person and i don't think that it was worth it as i've been to other aquariums that are much larger and offers much more things to see. I can see that it may be good for family and kids but will be a short trip and better to spend more time at the park right outside for walks or shopping at the church street market.
