    Bagels
    Christy C.

    So glad our friend recommended this spot to grab a quick breakfast at! The coffee was good, but the best part of it all were the bagels! You can build your own bagel, with tons of options for customization. It was the best bagel sandwich I have had in a long time - especially the smoked salmon! Though I did wish the menu had pricing (as building your own sandwich can get pricey pretty quickly), I enjoyed my breakfast nonetheless. There is some seating along the windows inside, and a couple of chairs and tables on the outside patio. Overall, a great spot and we talked about those bagels all day!

    Giraffe decor a plenty, it was a cute little build your own breakfast sandwich place with friendly staff. The toasted coconut latte was superb as well as my hubby's masterpiece egg sandwich. Bagels were fresh and tasty, just beware that you get a Vermont sized "schmear" of cream cheese, not a hefty NY schmear, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Only disappointment was that the strawberry jam was just the typical diner style packets, not a farm fresh creation as I would have expected in a boutique style establishment.

    Adorable coffee shop with a giraffe theme. They serve sandwiches, fresh baked goods, souvenirs, and of course, lovely smooth fresh brewed coffee. Excellent cappuccino! **Open Daily 6:30 am to 2pm **

    As a coffee and giraffe lover this place is a dream come true. They offer a variety of flavored lattes, coffees, teas and baked goods. I tried a flavored decaf latte and a chocolate chip cookie, both delicious. They also have a variety of merchandise for that giraffe lover in your life. I picked up a sweatshirt too while I was there. So fun.

    Deeeeee-licious... easy menu, you build on demand. Fresh ingredients and perfect balance of everything. Will absolutely be going here for breakfast every time I visit Stowe, VT!

    Popped in again a year later to see if by some miracle they had upgraded their coffee machine to something that makes legitimate espresso. Sadly the answer is no. It's a shame because it's a cute place, and the employees were eager to serve me something. But I couldn't make a go of it.

    Great way to start our morning in Stowe! The whole staff was friendly and ready for a little early morning sass from me. A couple bacon egg and cheese sandwiches, a delicious americano, and a spiced apple cider got us going. It's a super cute place. Easy to get to. Great food and service!

    As a frequent visitor to Stowe, I've often complained about the lack of good coffee. I tried Girakofi for the first time today and was pleasantly surprised. I just wanted a drip coffee and I noted they had light, medium and dark roast options. It's rare a place has more than 2 and having all 3 means there's something for everyone. My medium coffee had good flavor and no bitterness. I'd definitely try it again. They have sandwiches and baked goods but I didn't try any. The next time you want coffee in Stowe look for the 2 giraffes on Mountain Road and enjoy.

    Located right near Stowe downtown, the location is great for a quick bite and drink. It's located in a plaza with plenty of parking. We ordered a hot maple latte, iced vanilla latte with skim milk, fried egg bagel, and smoked salmon bagel. The bagels were good, nothing extraordinary. My iced latte was not strong at all, it tasted mainly like cold skim milk. The maple latte was strong with maple flavor, but could barely taste the coffee. Inside was clean and there's a few seats. Service was not good-not greeted upon arrival and both girls just stared until we were ready to order. It was really awkward. Not helpful in suggestions either--they literally did not talk and stared rudely. Also, the plastic lid for the iced latte didn't fit and some of it fell over my sweater. Overall, it's worth a try if you want something to eat, but I wouldn't stop for coffee only.

    Cold, wet, windy morning... Looking forward to some caffeine!

    We ordered mochas... And they were really watery, as if it's not espresso in it. Hot chocolate was also really underwhelming.

    Honestly, the only reason why we ate breakfast at this place was because all of the other…read morerestaurants we wanted to try were closed today. This place was on our way to our first destination this morning and we said screw it, let's give a try, Ooof!! we would've have a better tasty breakfast at McDonald's for half the cost. Yep!! This place is actually really pricey for the quality of food you get here. I ordered the egg, cheese sandwich on a biscuit (because we always like to try the local restaraunt's biscuits) and I added their maple sausage. I wanted to get an almond croissant as well until I saw a fly in the pastry cabinet just have his way on all the pastries. NOPE!! This was probably one of the worse breakfast sandwiches I have ever had to date. The biscuit itself was hard as a rock, dry and crumbled upon touch. It was lousy as heck. The maple sausage was a thick patty, but small, almost like a quarter size round compared to the size of the biscuit. So for what sandwich and a cup of coffee was around $23. Heck no! Was that even worth it with how bad inflation is these days Not sure how they have such high ratings, but just be warned. You're welcome!
