Came for dinner last night with my family. We were able to be seated right away. The seating is all upstairs so I'm not sure if it's handicap friendly. But cool vibes in general. We started with a mezze plate. They have a good cocktail menu + some mocktails. Me and my dad had the lamb plate which was decent! Would be even better with some tzatziki sauce. My mom had the gyro and she seemed to enjoy it, you can't go wrong with a gyro. My sister had the pasta and added chicken she did mention it had a bit of spice to it (not spicy but seasoned) all the portions were perfect. Overall was a good choice for us stopping in on our way back down to Ticonderoga. read more

Park Squeeze is a great spot in downtown Vergennes. They have an entry that has a pick up area for take out, and then stairs that go up to the bar and dining area upstairs. The bar looks like a great hangout spot, and the dining area is small, but rustic. It's got industrial loft vibes, and while the space is small, it doesn't feel terribly cramped. The service was good, prompt, and friendly. The burger was great. I had the Squeeze Burger and it was well prepared. The toppings created interesting blends of flavors and textures, and did so well. I also enjoyed the fries, which were hot and crispy. Definitely will be going back sometime. read more

Great burgers! Friendly waitress! Stairs are a little tricky so if mobility is a concern, may not be a great option.

Food was ok. Not amazing. I had coconut chilli wings. Barely any coconut or chilli. Bartender made a good cocktail, but the one waitress was the rudest girl I've ever met. won't be bothering again. read more

Great service and delicious hamburgers! After a long day traveling and visiting historic places we arrived in Vergennes ready to eat. Park Squeeze did not disappoint! read more

Great burgers! Nice people in a relaxed atmosphere in the historic town of Vergennes, VT. read more

This is a cool place with a nice bar atmosphere but nicer. Service was a little slow at first but we were in no hurry. We got the roasted Brussels sprouts as an app and it was very good. We got wings and a burger too. 5 star crispy jumbo wings (7 per pound). Burger was juicy and delicious, very well seasoned. The only caution is there are a set of very steep stairs to climb to get to the main dining room/bar area but well worth it. Overall, 4.5 stars!! read more

We were in the mood for burgers and were super pleased with our experience. The upstairs seating area was cozy and the bar area was lively. Service was excellent - attentive and patient. Burgers were excellent! We will return to sample other items from the menu. read more

My husband and I dined at Park Squeeze one evening during our short vacation in Vergennes in late October. We made reservations to dine there, and it was a good thing, as there is remarkably little seating at the restaurant. The service was fast and friendly, and the food was satisfying, although the venue was cramped and noisy and the main dining room was up a steep and narrow flight of stairs. read more

If they have the clam chowder, GET IT. The Lombok Chicken is a recent favorite. Great burgers too.

I ordered the pepperoni flatbread with cumin dusted fried plantains. For my beverage, I had a ginger beer. The flatbread was incredibly delicious and well-seasoned. The crust was phenomenal and had the perfect texture. The fried plantains were very delicious as well. The ambiance was very welcoming, and the servers were very responsive. read more

We went right at 5 on Tuesday for dinner and business was really quiet. The atmosphere was clean and comfortable- loved the exposed brick and cool vibe going on. It definitely felt like more of "bar" type scene, probably more crowded in the late evening/weekends. The staff was really friendly & knowledgable. We ordered two starters, the nachos & buffalo wings. My husband loves wings and he really didn't enjoy these. They were really soft and drenched in sauce. The nachos were really good, but be careful of the peppers- super hot!! We got the chicken caesar wrap & caesar salad with anchovies, both were pretty basic. Good, but not great. read more

Decent food and decent service. While it isn't anything I would get excited to go back to... it was good enough for the night.

My friends have a classic car restoration shop locally and on a recent visit, they recommended we stop in here for lunch. I was told their clam chowder was "to die for" so that's what I ordered. Usually, I won't order a seafood dish so far from the ocean, but the scouting report was so strong I went for it. On first taste, I knew this was a top ten chowder! Rich, loaded with chunks of clams and loaded with well cooked, but not mushy potatoes. It was so good, I called my clam chowder expert friend to tell him how good it was and he requested I bring home a quart. Leap ahead a few days. I brought the take out chowder to my friend and he confirmed my judgement - this is great food! Definitely top ten. On par with his favorite at the Sturbridge inn. I also had a burger and fries - both excellent but the clam chowder is the reason to visit this small but interesting place. In the area? Definitely stop in. A clam chowder fan, make a trip! Highly recommended. read more

Great food, super neat place. One of the best Caesar salads around. Really enjoyed everything we ordered. Be sure to try the plantains, they are quite good. read more

Here's the thing about a restaurant in Vergennes. It's very small town so there's not much competition food wise. Which results sometimes in sub-par food you're kind of stuck with because you have no other choice. The food isn't "bad" by any means but it certainly isn't good. I went to both 3 Squares & Park Squeeze, literally next to one anoyher- and both burgers were exactly the same. Bland, clearly prepackaged and over cooked. Neither one was better than the other. I was hoping to find one burger better than the other but no go. I asked for medium rare- here's the photo of my food. It did its job of filling me up but I didn't enjoy it. read more

Low quality food. Server answered the phone while I was telling her my order. Fries are disgusting. (McDonald's quality served in a tin bucket) overpriced. Iced tea was ok. read more

Cozy upstairs dining area and bar, Service was good. But basically this is bar food and not great at that. Burger was dried out flavorless disaster, with a special topping they call ketchup. the latkes were mushy and dull. notice that the "special" dishes were combination of several of the sides: Lentil stew with coconut creamed spinach and roasted squash (used as sides and in two other dishes) read more

Awesome little place, delicious appetizers and love the tangy BBQ ribs, the sauce is great! Dessert portions are on the small side, but that might be just watch you need after eating a full meal here. Love the look of the place as well. read more

Park Squeeze is surprisingly good for the location! The nachos were tasty (although honestly they'd be hard to screw up) and my friends enjoyed their veggie burgers as well. The "bucket of fries" is literally a huge bucket of shoestring fries, so it's worth the $4! There are a good amount of vegetarian and vegan options on the menu, and it seems like they'd be willing/able to accommodate other dietary restrictions, which is a relief for such a remote locale! The service was good and our food came out pretty fast. Overall this is a solid choice if you are in Vergennes! read more

I lived in the Vergennes area for 9 years but that was well over 11 years ago back when the Park Squeeze was still the tired little Park Restaurant. Imagine my surprise when I stepped into this narrow little eatery tucked between two other businesses. It's no wider than an alleyway, but you'd never know it until you walk inside. OMG! I was blown away with the transformation! I couldn't believe my eyes! Our guests made 7:00 reservations because it was Friday night. I said, "but it's only Vergennes, how packed can it be?" Well let me tell you, that place was buzzing! The hostess... who we realized after chatting with her has been friends with our daughter for years... took us up a very looong, narrow and steep set of stairs to the second floor (former apartment). The space was incredibly huge! And the magnificent bar! I don't know HOW they got that monster upstairs and in place? Maybe they built it up there? Who knows... thing is, it's enormous and plenty big enough for at least 20 stools around it... and they were all taken. The upstairs is warm and cozy with its brick walls and lighting and intimate seating areas, but upbeat and lively at the same time. The drinks kept flowing, mass amounts of food continually going out to the dining room, and everyone seemed to be having a good time. The menu is American with an eclectic twist. Variations on classic American fare like mac & cheese and burgers. Although we didn't have salads, they looked good as they passed by us to other tables. Our table ordered a plate of Nachos for an appetizer, a glorified version of Mac & Cheese with spinach, bacon and caramelized onions, Linguine with homemade Meatballs, Shrimp Lulu with what looked like vodka sauce over penne, a Squeeze Burger with a fried egg inside, and French fries and basic mac and cheese for our little 4-year-old guest. The food was a hit with all of us. The service was top-notch. The wait time was normal. All in all a great time! We'll be back! read more

This place hasn't been a good experience in the 4 times I've been there, but it's local so I keep going back hoping it will improve. The two main issues I've had: A rude waitress, And they charged us extra for a "open sandwich charge" so basically they actually charged us because my girlfriend ordered a burger without the bun or toppings, just a burger with cheese, and they charged us extra as if they had to assemble the burger and then take it apart.... And I had to pay for the labor Won't be going back and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone read more

Amazing! Good vibe, good food, great selection of draft beer, and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. I'll definitely come back. read more

Great food, cool ambiance, reasonably priced, and excellent service. Half priced chili coconut wings were amazing!

Great bartenders, flatbreads, wings, and burgers. We love the ambience upstairs and dining at the bar.

We got a reservation here and when we got there they said our table was upstairs but kindly sat us downstairs when we asked. The building is very small. The food was delicious. I got a hamburger with the toppings that are usually on a veggie burger. It was quite yummy. Other people in my party got pepperoni pizza (they said it was good), Mac and cheese (also tasty), chicken strips (good), and a large Cesar salad which they said was good but it looked heavily dressed. I understand what some other reviews mean about service because towards the end of our meal the restaurant started getting busy and the hostess was also the only waitress for down stairs, but she still did a good job and was very nice. Park squeeze also has a different item 1/2 priced each day. read more

Great casual dining on finer cuisine. This place fills the gap between Black Sheep and the pizza joint Luigi's. Lamb Meatloaf is great and the adobe pork turnovers are off the chain! Drink can be a bit pricey, but other than that, it is a welcomed addition to Vergennes' offerings. read more

Park Squeeze fits well into the tiny Main Street of Vergennes, VT. Pleasant atmosphere and impressions of eating healthy quickly replaced the feel of a cramped seating space We ordered the, polenta fries, steak and cheese and a stir fry rice bowl. The fries were good, if you're into polenta. The stir fry begins with an asian base, noodles or rice, but the danger of choosing your own ingredients, you may stray from your desired outcome. Steak and cheese wasn't a philly... but rather a serving of steak and cheese with carmelized onions wrapped in a thick bed of spinach and horseradish sauce, all inside your choice of wrap. An interesting combination of tastes. Zesty. Tasty. read more

Nice local place to grab good fresh food and awesome drinks. Cool, inviting decor and atmosphere. The bar area upstairs is the place to be! Margarita night is great, inventive and yummy concoctions. The sweet potato fries are super good. Half price burger night is a good way to dip your toes in. See you there read more

Park Squeeze was a test for us. It was the first place we went out to eat with our newborn daughter. All in all, it was pretty good, except for the daughter part. We met some friends there for dinner. We each had a drink and split some maple chipotle wings. The wings were cooked well, and appropriately seasoned. At this point in the meal my daughter exploded into crying. We did what we could to calm her down, but not wanting a "Maine's Marcy's Diner" experience, Rachel took her to the car and fed her. I waited for our food and quickly ate my chicken burrito. The burrito was fair. Not too big, not too small. She ordered the steak tips, which looked really good, and were good cold when she ate them at home. They were cooked to medium rare, and the portion was worth the price. The service was very nice, fast, and understanding. We were the only folks seated downstairs, so we didn't run the risk of annoying other diners. By the time other guests showed up, the crying baby was out the door. They were more than happy to try to keep Rachel's dinner warm, and then wrap it up to go when it was clear she wasn't going to make it back. Dinner for 4 with an app and drinks all around was just a shade over $110. Well within the value for what we got. I'd recommend this place. It's not fancy, just solid, which is fine by me. read more

My friends, who live in downtown Vergennes, took me to the Park Squeeze for a Saturday night dinner. Arriving promptly at 6 for our reservation, the hostess led us upstairs to a 2-person table with 3 chairs. The restaurant lives up to it's name for we squeezed into the seating arrangement plus my chair was most uncomfortable. Ugh. The food though made up for what furniture lacked. My classic Caesar was outstanding. The homemade veggie burger and sweet potato fries plate was generously porportioned. I couldn't finish it. Overall I was satisfied and would return to hopefully a booth next time. read more

Food = delicious!!! Service = Awesome!!!! Bartender talking way to loud = not awesome!!! Also he said to be a part of VERMONT FRESH NETWORK You need only 1 local food source. That is not correct as you need four if you are a restaurant. I won't even get into the GMO convo he had with folks at the bar. He had no idea what he was talking about. I wish to shit he wasn't a loud talker cause it would have been 5 starts!!! read more

I had a really great customer service experience at Park Squeeze in Vergennes. My wife and I showed up just before closing with no reservation. The place was still pretty full but it was clear they were going to close soon. They not only found us a seat but we're also super friendly and quick. That was just the service, the food was also awesome! I highly recommend this business. P.s I personally can't wait to go back and check out their half priced Wednesday burger specials. read more

Probably won't go back. The hostess was our waitress and getting a seat took a while because she was running around serving food and completing checks. I got the classic burger and the fries looked and tasted like McDonalds fries...didn't want that at a sit down restaurant. My husband got a Caesar salad as an entree and the bowl was the size of your hands cupped together with half of it shredded cheese. Just not what we expected. read more

Had dinner here last night. The roasted asparagus was amazing! We split the squeeze burger and it was pretty good, too. Ordered it 'medium' but came out a little pink. I would give five stars but after the delicious app, the burger just seemed normal. So far, so good on our trip to the area. read more

Heck Yeah! Dinner rezzy at 7 at the Squeeze! This is my spot after slaving away at work all week, (Facebooking and reading online reviews can be EXHAUSTING .. Don't judge me). Moving on -- They have my all time favorite flat bread there, the house flat is sent down from heaven, how they won that arrangement, I don't know and don't care. I must have it at least once a week. Furthermore, Christine (bartender) makes the BEST margarita's that I've ever had (my hubs has attempted to re-create these at home and has actually gotten pretty close).. But like the house flat, the rita's obviously come straight from some area of heaven as well. You can't refuse heaven, can you? Didn't think so. Over all, the Squeeze is a definite spot to wind down after a long week, just make sure you get a spot upstairs, the atmosphere is a bit more.. Well, sultry.. I'd say. read more

We were driving back from a couple of nights in Lake George NY and looking for a quick bite to eat. I told my husband that we should try this place as I'd read recently that they had just opened. We were not disappointed and it fit the bill perfectly! We split an order of lamb sliders with fries and an order of the chicken fingers. The chicken fingers were so different and just amazing - they were seasoned with a lentil mix and served with a coconut chili sauce which was delicious! The sliders were equally good and topped with a chutney. YUM. My one comment was the fries didn't appear to be freshly made (they might have been but they didn't appear it) and this doesn't jive with the homemade vibe they are going for. But, giving them the benefit of the doubt on that one. Great service, cute place, we'll definitely stop again if we're in the area! read more
