While the restaurant was mostly full, we did not have to wait to be seated. Unfortunately they don't serve breakfast after 12 so only lunch/dinner items were available except for a breakfast buffet which the server advised would be available for only another 45 minutes. I looked at the small buffet menu showing what was available on today's buffet: sausage links, bacon, corned beef, sausage gravy, pastries, fruit, French toast sticks, and ham and cheese omelets and since nothing really appealed to any of us we decided we would pass on the buffet however when the server came to get our drink orders she advised us that if we wanted to order off the menu it would take 50 minutes to an hour to get our food. We asked if we got an appetizer in addition to the food if that would at least come out sooner so we could snack on something while we waited but she said probably not so we all went for the buffet. I so wished I hadn't. The sausage links and bacon were to be expected but the corned beef hash was definitely the canned variety that looks more like cat food than human food and since it wasn't cooked crisp, it was just a soggy mess. The fruit was the standard cantalope and melon but weren't really very flavor able. The sausage gravy was decent and had lots of sausage in it but the biscuits were small, cold, and hard. I'm not an omelette person usually but this one was kind of strange. Instead of small individual omelettes, they were large rolled or possibly folded eggs, with diced ham and melted cheddar then sliced in sections so it kind of resembled a Stromboli bread with eggs instead of bread and judging by by the consistency and texture, the eggs must be pre-mixed eggs in a carton. I was not a fan. The French toast sticks were ok. Nothing great but it the worst item on the Buffett. The one really good item on the buffet was the blueberry muffin. Which was packed full of large, real blueberries. I ate two of those. Service was ok, our server was nice and polite and refilled our drinks when we asked but the cashier had little or no personality. He never asked how our meal was or said have a great day or even said thank you.

How is it possible that this Vermont delicacy tasted better than I can ever recall? The texture what sublime. The maple flavor pronounced. We are so lucky to have the Canteen here in the Valley and, I'll reiterate from my previous review, it's not to be taken for granted.

Housed in an old home in the downtown area, this family-owned deli is a community anchor in this quaint Vermont town. We had breakfast here twice and noted the steady stream of regulars who came for carryout boxes of donuts and bags of freshly made bagels. The star here are their bagels which come in a variety of both sweet and savory flavors. We recommend the bagel and lox with a smear as well as the omelets and bagel choices. We also couldn't resist their buttermilk pancakes which are served with a generous dollop of locally sourced butter and, of course, Vermont maple syrup (why anyone uses fake mapole syrup is beyond me...) Nicely crafted baked goods and fry entrees make this a must-try stop when cruising through New England.

My entree was the pulluled pork tacos which was excellent! Plenty of food, I even brought one home! I definitely recommend Mister Ups when in the Middlebury VT area!

Unless you are going specifically to sit at the bar, I would not recommend going here for dinner…read more We made reservations for 10 people to celebrate a special birthday. Despite having a reservation, we waited 90 minutes for our meals. When the food finally arrived, it came out in waves about 10 minutes apart. By the time one end of the table received their meals, the other end had already finished eating. Our appetizer was delivered at the same time as our entrées and had clearly been sitting under a heat lamp. It was dried out and tasted of old oil. Our waitress appeared overwhelmed and received no visible support from management. We were not offered drink refills, and we were never asked if everything was satisfactory. The child in our group was served a burnt grilled cheese sandwich that required scraping off the charred portions just to make it edible. It was also made with rye bread and unmelted shredded cheese -- neither of which were indicated on the children's menu. After 2.5 hours, when we requested the check, we were told they could not separate it -- despite having informed the waitress at the beginning of the evening whose tabs were grouped together. We have hosted family events there before and have never encountered this policy. It was not posted or communicated to us in advance. As someone who has worked in customer service and management for over 30 years, I understand how challenging the industry can be. However, communication, organization, and support from management are essential if you expect guests to return. Unfortunately, this experience did not reflect that standard. We will be choosing to celebrate our family gatherings elsewhere in the future.
