After a long hike that left my legs completely shot, I found myself cruising the back roads of…read moreVermont when I spotted a small crowd gathered outside a charming little roadside stand. Curiosity won, and I pulled over--turns out, it wasn't your typical ice cream shop. Around here, they call it a creemee--a local twist I quickly picked up on as I listened to the locals eagerly waiting for their names to be called along with their favorite flavors. Naturally, I had to go with the maple creemee. I mean, when in Vermont, how can you not try something maple? One bite in, and I was sold. It's not quite like traditional soft-serve--the texture is smoother, silkier on the tongue, and the maple flavor was rich without being overly sweet. I also couldn't resist grabbing a maple soda and some maple candy while I was at it. (Hey, don't judge--did I mention how long that hike was?) I only wish I had the stomach to try more flavors; judging by the one I had, I can only imagine how delicious the rest must be. If you find yourself wandering the back roads of Vermont, keep your eyes peeled for a creemee stand--you're in for a real treat.

Fries were extremely soggy. The Cole slaw I took one bite and it was most definitely bad not to mention again... no seasoning or flavor other than a sour taste which I'm 99% sure it was bad. The macaroni.... the blandest macaroni I've ever tasted. No seasoning again. No salt. Not even the breadcrumbs ontop tasted like anything. This tells me it's low quality food without any seasoning? Salad was bland. Ranch was bland. I had a few pieces of lettuce with mostly croutons. I'm mostly perplexed by how you can even make food taste so bland? I did get an assortment of pies which looked delicious but haven't had yet. Extremely disappointing experience. If you do go here I suggest bringing your own spices. $50 for all of this food to only be able to eat the fish. Don't waste your time here

For 3 people we shared the olives, 2 pizzas (o'cipolla was our favorite), and the chicory and citrus salad which surprisingly ended up being enough food for us. Our server was very nice but the food runner just slapped down the food and walked away quickly without saying anything which was odd. The atmosphere is nice inside with a huge pizza oven in the center and farmhouse-esque style. Definitely recommend for an occasion or nice dinner.

For instance, a basic cheese pizza (which I ordered from the kids the last time we went) was the best part of the meal I had last time. I've also had some hit-or-miss cocktails there (the spicy ones have honestly been the big failures for me--REALLY spicy in some sips and then virtually tasteless by the end). But I feel like when it's good, it's so good, so I fully intend to return for future meals. Also, I have never had bad service there.

While researching breakfast spots in Essex Junction for our weekend getaway, we came across…read moreUncommon Coffee and were encouraged by the strong reviews. When we arrived, the parking lot was busy, which felt like a great sign. It was a Saturday morning, so there was a short wait to order and to grab a table, but the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. The interior is eclectically decorated and has a cozy, fun vibe that reminded us of the coffee shop in the Friends TV show. We ordered a brewed coffee and an iced coffee--both were excellent--and really appreciated the option of Vermont maple syrup and oat milk. For food, we ordered a regular breakfast sandwich and the Forager vegan breakfast sandwich. We were especially impressed to see a vegan breakfast option on the menu, as many places don't cater to vegans at all, particularly for breakfast. Both sandwiches were delicious, and it was great to feel so thoughtfully accommodated. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and would happily recommend Uncommon Coffee to friends. We just wish it were closer to home so we could visit more often!

Good service, ambiance, and coffee!…read more I stopped by for a latte during my recent trip to VT. I ordered a Tiger Claw which is chocolate and orange latte with Oatmilk. I was not sure what to expect from this flavor combo but it was really good and balanced. The latte was smooth and perfect amount of creaminess as well. I really enjoyed it. The next day I ordered an iced latte with vanilla from Essex Resort which uses the beans from here and that latte tasted great as well!

She and Patrick have a seamless kitchen and was very interesting to watch. My husbands filet was perfect and the pork tenderloin was juicy and paired exceptionally well with the sweet potato hash. The next night we had the cheese board, all local VT cheeses and the accompaniments were delicious. The scallops were clean and melted in your mouth like butter. I had the chorizo pasta and the flavor was delicious. Desserts were perfect and the cookie at the end made for a great late night treat. We left very satisfied and was probably some of the best food we've ever had. Thank you for such a great experience!

Foodies beware! We…read morehad a bad experience. We made special reservations at the chef's table and were expecting the "interactive experience" advertised and hoped this would be one of the highlights of our week-long vacation. Instead, we were sat at the open kitchen in front of a hot grill right by the end of the counter which had a bunch of kitchen junk and dead flowers. None of the chefs spoke to us, except the short order cook in front of us who we tried to engage with and that couldn't answer any questions we had. It was completely like normal service at any other establishment and unremarkable. If we'd known, we would have just sat at a regular table. The worst part was the open kitchen station we were in front of was very dirty with several flies circling the food prep area. The food we ordered was good, but not quite at the level we were expecting from a culinary resort. Very, very disappointing.

When there for breakfast it was almost empty. French toast had zero special about it could be eaten literally anywhere including a budget hotel continental breakfast. The breakfast burrito was tasty due a unique sauce (otherwise not super flavorful) and incredible potatoes. For dinner, We ordered the mac and cheese and mussels to start. I would say the execution from a technical level was good, but flavor was average. The burger was tasty but nothing special and the chicken dish was interesting. Again, technique wise super impressive: crispy skin and incredibly moist. However, it was pretty underseasoned. The gnocchi accompanied was very tough almost indistinguishable and very overseasoned with black pepper. The pork belly was just there. The drink selection is very, very extensive. We found this a bit disappointing when handed a dessert menu that had 3 desserts and 50+ dessert drinks in addition to the 4 page drink menu.

Well at $28 per double drink (Bombay and Soda), they certainly did the job and were well made. No complaints there, but just be aware of the price. The wings I had ($18) were excellent. I would say some of the best in the area for sure. You can split the flavors to mix it up which I did. Maple Rosemary was fantastic, as were the Buffalo. You can tell they were made with care and attention to detail. Same can be said about the Bleu Cheese Dressing, which is homemade. Very good. It prompted me to eat all the veggies that came with the wings because I didn't want to leave any behind.
