The menu changes and it didn't match what was on their website. We ordered the fried chicken, pulled pork plate, salmon, burger, and tagliatelle, plus drinks. The fried chicken was by far the best meal, tasty and not greasy. The pasta was under seasoned. The salmon was slightly overcooked and the asparagus was very overcooked. The wild rice was bland. The fries were in half inch pieces. The pulled pork was very sweet. The server was nice though. Also, it was a little warm inside. Overall, the value was not great. The price ($360 including tip) was a lot for mostly mediocre meals. Located close to the freeway with a good sized parking lot.

I gave it four stars because the flow is a little chaotic, seating is minimal indoor but there's plenty outside, and there is only one restroom for male and female.

I heard about a restaurant in Essex shopping center,a breakfast /lunch place. It was 1/2 before closing ,patrons were still coming in. I love the back story of this place ,set in the western mountains with decore to match. it was fun to see all the antlers made into chandeliers . I ordered the flaky waffles, somewhat like a croissant but waffle shaped I ordered mine with cheese . It was melt in your mouth! I ordered the apple dumpling with vanilla sauce to go .I ate it at home ,this was not the dumpling I was familiar with ,an apple wrapped in pastry, it was more like an apple cake, it was ok. The service was good,and friendly.

We were staying in Essex Junction for the weekend and looked for a nearby spot for breakfast, which…read moreled us to The Pinwheel. It has a really cute, homey feel, and the staff were all friendly and helpful from the moment we walked in. We ordered the Skits N' Gravy, a side of the sourdough pancake, and two coffees. My husband--who absolutely loves biscuits and gravy--was excited to see the Skits N' Gravy on the menu. While it wasn't quite what he expected (the biscuit was much denser than a traditional biscuit and the gravy is bacon-based rather than sausage), he still enjoyed trying something different but said he'd just order a different dish next time as this was not his favorite. I had the sourdough pancake, and for a "side," it was impressively large. It was delicious and came with Vermont maple syrup, which was a great touch. The coffee was good, and we appreciated that they offered almond milk as a dairy-free option. Overall, we enjoyed our visit and would definitely return if we're in the area again--just with a slightly different ordering strategy next time!

The food was a little overpriced for what you get. I really enjoyed the Huevos Rancheros except there were some burnt home fries. The Eggs Benedict could use some improvement as the pork belly was dry, poached eggs were overcooked, and could use more hollandaise.

(You could hear the annoyance in her voice.) Me (attempting to explain) But haven't you ever eaten whipped cream by itself? Her cold judging voice: Yes, but it's still odd! Surprisingly hostile demeanor for a coffee place? Neither welcoming nor comfortable.

We got the breakfast pancakes to split, which we were very curious about. It was somehow an excellent pancake and also a unique experience. I also grabbed the spinach scramble and my wife got the potatoes verdes. The chorizo in her dish was surprisingly good, but the true unsung hero was the homemade biscuit. Definitely grab one of those! The homemade hot sauce is excellent and not too spicy but packed with flavor. It adds a ton to their egg dishes. We are going back tomorrow to check out the banana bread French toast, which our waitress said is not to be missed, but we simply didn't have any more room in our stomachs! Update after day 2: skip the corn beef hash, and the omelet we got was just so-so. The "scramble" style egg dishes are much better. The home fries didn't get enough love in yesterday's review. They are quite excellent. And, the banana bread French toast was as advertised. Don't miss it. You can get a single slice as a side order for five bucks as of this writing, and you will not regret it. Again, excellent and friendly service and my kind of music.

I had scrambled eggs, homemade corned beef hash, home fries and rye toast. My eggs were cooked perfectly. The hash was average. Much better than from a can, but the flavor was slightly bland. The home fries were seasoned perfectly. The coffee was Green Mountain coffee so of course it was good. My husband had eggs Benedict with regular bacon instead of ham/canadian bacon. This is his most often choice when we go to breakfast. The bacon was thick cut and really good- I tried a little bit. He said the hollandaise was the best he's ever had. Even hours later out of nowhere he remarked how good his breakfast was. The next time we visit the area we will definitely go back.

Really unfortunate experience. First time going too. We just moved to Waterbury…read more I ordered, for take out, 2 coffees, the biscuit gravy special and a breakfast sandwich. Waited a while which was fine, I was scooping out the place. Impressive collection of hot sauces. [240 at least!] And a nice looking breakfast menu. I grabbed the Garlic Tabasco after asking for a to go container for it.​ [I also collected to go sause packets, napkins, coffee stuff, and utensils.] I also bought 'puppy chow' sweet chex mix. In total I paid about 30$ for two adult meals and a snack for my toddler, basically. I received my order. I tipped for the cooked meal. The already made snack mix was an after thought. Upon getting to the park right next door I sat down and opened the Styrofoam clamshell to eat the biscuits gravy meal. To my horror there was a thumb length black hair in my food. I was upset, took a picture, and thankfully ate the breakfast sandwich. I drank the coffee- standard coffee. I didn't doddle but went right back to Park Row where I was polite and apologized but there was a hair in my food. The server acted like she didn't see or want to deal with it and got the cook up front to deal with it instead. To which the cook denied seeing it, demanding I pick it up out of the food with my hands, and got defensive. I had purposely taken a picture of it to zoom in and show them. They both clearly tried to not even look at my zoomed in image of a hair in my food. So after a few times of this the cook said rudely "Well what do you want us to remake it or refund." I said refund. Its unfortunate because I was super excited to eat there. I love breakfast foods. But the way that was handled was abhorrent. I've worked in the industry myself and I would have never handled it that way. An apology, comp for the messed up meal, and a refund might have where I would have gone with it if I was the server or the cook. Someone not affiliated with the restaurant explained to me that's how small towns go. That was rude for even bringing it back or to their attention. I said no, I'm from a small town, I would never. The breakfast sandwich was standard. Nothing wrong with it. [Sausage, egg, and cheese on an english muffin.] Oh and the sweet chex mix was stale, not crunchy at all- like when cereal or chips get soft. I ate the marshmallows and m&ms and tossed most of the bag. [I have the picture if I can post it, also] Sorry. But this is the truth.
