Speakeasy Café in Rutland is the kind of place that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile…read more The interiors are playful and full of character with artsy murals, whimsical sketches, and cozy speakeasy vibes that make the space feel instantly welcoming. The sugar house coffee was a standout. Rich, smooth, and exactly what you want on a cold Vermont morning. We also tried the handmade biscuit, warmed and buttered, and it genuinely felt like a hug in biscuit form. Shoutout to Ethan for being incredibly helpful and thoughtful with recommendations. With his guidance, we built a fantastic sandwich with sourdough, hash browns, avocado, green sauce, and chili crunch. He understood the assignment. Messy, hearty, and delicious. The vegan wrap was also flavorful and satisfying. We left happy, full, and already talking about coming back. Highly recommend Speakeasy Café, especially if you're looking for strong vegetarian and vegan options in Rutland.

High quality ingredients; exquisite taste, not overdone; and the bread... delicious! Rutland is blessed to have this place. As good as any similar establishment in a big city, here or abroad. All at very reasonable prices! Definitely the place to go.

When we have more time we will be back. We were quickly acknowledged and answered any questions we had. We ordered 2 drinks teas both were delicious, can't remember them right now. As our drinks were being created I was checking out their huge selection of bag teas, I had Lapsang Souchong tea on my shopping list for making seitan, I was shocked to find it in our lil small town and so happy! The Gentleman that waited on us knew all about its smokey flavor! I'm impressed! Looking forward to using it this week! The shop is nicely set up and has room for expansion. Has a seating area that is nicely spaced out. Very clean shop items, teas have their own areas. Looking forward to visiting with some friends soon!

Each component was great. The bagel was tender and fresh. The egg was lightly fried leaving some golden liquid yolk instead of a hammered dry patty.

I also got a chocolate chip cookie that I of course waited many hours to eat after my breakfast and it was excellent also.

The meatballs weren't anything to write home about. It just felt empty and without any real love to the sauce, the texture of the meat or the cheese which I peeled off of the tin foil in a glob . Why do I give it a 4 star then? The desserts are absolutely phenomenal. I had a peanut butter cheesecake and I will honestly say it's the BEST I've ever had. Everything was packaged with the desserts beautifully! The interior was well kept, clean and relatively efficient with checkout. The service was great, the girls behind the counter were friendly and attentive to everyone that came into the store and were quick to get orders!

I asked him for recommendations. Of course the number one thing is cinnamon frosted croissant. There were only 3 left for the day. I also bought a cookie, iced latte, and 2 bags of coffee beans. The cookie and the croissant were excellent. The iced latte was also very good. Will try the coffee beans when I get home. So glad we got to stop by. Highly recommend.
