This is an order at counter and have food brought out. I had sandwich and side salad (I always love multiple options for a side). My only complaint is today (Tuesday) they were out of turkey for sandwiches and had no soup. I think Wednesday they tend to get deliveries for the remainder of the week. This didn't bother me, but something to keep in mind as they build business.

Well, I want to edit my previous review. After trying their cold brew a few more times, I must say…read morethat it's just very strong. I doubt they forgot to dilute it every time I've been there, which means I was just too sensitive to the caffeine. That being said, be prepared for a very intense caffeine high. The $3.50 cold brew packs a serious punch. The flavor is excellent, very full and intense with a buzz that lasts 4 hours! I can barely finish a cup without watering it down. I'll also say that the wait time is usually pretty good; I'm in and out with my coffee within a minute or two. They also accept Samsung pay, which is nice. Having a coffee shop/roaster this close to the gym is super convenient, especially a place with owners who really seem to have a passion about coffee. Note: the selection still seems pretty limited, but that may improve once they have a more permanent location (if that's happening?).

The baked egg came with a piece of cornbread and slices of orange as a garnish/finish. Today's baked egg was filled with fresh veggies, and sun dried tomatoes. The cornbread was on the drier side, but still very good and just a touch of sweetness. The staff here are really pleasant, adding to the overall experience.

All foods are made from local items, it's definitely more fancy then regular hospital food, I would even say it's gourmet! They have pumpkin custard which is to die for and a delicious version of grilled cheese with cream cheese, local VT cheddar cheese, onions and mushrooms. Food is almost as cheap as the Harvest Cafe! Don't miss breakfast from 7:30 am to 10 am, the Lost bread or Farmstead Eggs are my recommendations!

I've been to specs twice since it opened for cocktails in the evenings. It's a dreamy place for…read morecocktail lovers. They have a binder of cocktails broken down by liquor type. Service: They're very attentive to answering any questions about drinks and always happy to make any accommodations upon request. The have so many different variations of drinks such as six different takes on a martini and so on. The inside is very nice, quaint. An 8 or so person bar and then tables throughout the back and front of the cafe. There's also a fun side grocery room you can shop in while sipping on a cocktail. They're very attentive have individual sodas, drinks, and then larger options like cases of beer, wine, aperitifs, non alcoholic options, and also stuff like ice molds, cocktail shakers and so forth. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a one of kind cocktail place in chittenden county. Oh and drinks are super affordable! $11-$12 for most cocktails on their lists.

Specs is tiny and honestly a bit anxiety-inducing as there's not a lot of room to stand around and wait for your order. The space is eclectic and mismatched, and kind of feels like your grandma's kitchen, in a cute and cozy way. I loved the little attached shop where you can buy coffee, beer, wine, spices, drink mixers, art, etc. I got the silk sheets and Nate got the razzle dazzle - both really delicious lattes, and I love anything black sesame so I knew I'd like the silk sheets. Their menu is large and you can customize your drinks in tons of ways, including with CBD, sprinkles, syrups, milks, etc. The options seem kind of endless. Not a super great place to hang out and work, but I'm glad we were able to stop in!

Oysters were fresh, loved the beef dish, ton of flavor wish I had a bit more of the beef because it was so tender full of flavor a beautiful dish on a cold fall day.

I'd like to make an exception to that and give an enthusiastic thumbs-up to our local board game cafe, The Boardroom - Board Game Cafe in Burlington (literally just across the river from Winooski, at the Chace Mill). Lots of metro areas have boardgame cafes where you can drop in, play a game, get a bite to eat, and hang out, but mysteriously, Chittenden County didn't until seven weeks ago. The staff (Kerry, Preston, and Justin are the folks we've interacted with) are super friendly and super knowledgeable -- if you walk in and say "I want a game that involves livestock and aliens that can be played in under an hour and that takes less than ten minutes to learn" their eyes will unfocus for a second and then they'll go "Right!" and lead you right to said game. And then they'll helpfully explain the rules to whatever extent you need help. Apparently they know all the rules for every game ever created. They have, literally, hundreds of games, for every age and skill level. The food there is very good also -- they have giant pretzels, plates of pickles, sammiches of all kinds, drinks, coffee, you name it. At the end of every session, they bring you complementary cotton candy. What's not to like? I do not own stock in The Board Room nor do I expect to gain materially by posting this over-the-top review. I just want them to stay open and prosper so *I* can hang out there and play games.
