    Whew I needed a coffee early in the morning driving back to NYC from Vermont and did Speeder & Earl's deliver with some strong coffee! It is a coffee shop located in the industrial/arts district area of Burlington. You can easily spot it with their logo flag. Walking in it is a well-sized space. There are your typical drinks and because it was blazing hot outside, my partner & I opted for The Ed which is the cold brew plus a double shot of espresso and a hint of maple (because Vermont!). First sip you'll get a smoothness, a light fragrant sweetness, and a jolt of caffeine. It's a great drink for sure. They also sell beans to go. Happy drinking and remember: Don't deny, satisfy!

    Yummy coffee! Friendly staff and reasonable pricing. I've tried a number of the lattes and they've all been great. They have a seasonal speciality menu too.

    Very quiet, peaceful place to pick up coffee to go or stay a while and work. The staff is very kind and quite willing to give suggestions! I love their cinnamon and vanilla or raspberry iced latte. They are less creamy and "indulgent" than the typical latte, however, but worth it (and cheaper than competitors!).

    The cold brew here is amazing. Coffee is strong and really great flavor. The way to do it is with oat milk and maple syrup. They also have kombucha and CBD seltzer in the fridge. Huge seating area inside and some benches outside.

    Great solid place to get coffee, wind down, write your term paper, and get a greasy feel for the Vermont feel. The following encounter is informative if Speeder and Earl (and Burlington's style): Guy: I was wondering why there weren't more people in here. Batista: Oh right, it's Columbus day. I guess people have off? Guy: Yeah I never know. I walked in wondering if I should pay, or if I should just demand things. Batista: Yepp, just come in, take what you want and then just murder us all. Guy: Sounds great! Have a wonderful day, thanks again! Oh sweet Vermont, your sarcasm when it comes to horrible past colonial activities is refreshing and warms my heart. I can't wait to retire here and have Speeder and Earl's every day.

    Great coffee selection, picked up a bag to bring back home! The staff was excellent - we actually forgot the bag when we left and they were awesome and brought it out to us! We enjoyed a cup of the maple French roast flavor (so good we drank it black) as well as a maple latte. Definitely worth a stop when you're in Burlington!

    Lattes are really smooth here. I got the double shot in a 12 oz and it was perfection. They have cinnamon, coco powder, and nutmeg on the side for you to use also- which is always nice. The cold brew is pretty good too, has a little chocolate aftertaste and is smooth. Some places the cold brew can taste like watery Folgers- not here. The blueberry scones are also real good too, I like when they are dense and have a lot of blueberries! Ambiance is great too, good place to study or read the paper. Very chill and the staff is super friendly. Place can get busy, but you'll get in and out quickly. It is attached to an art gallery too- so its a nice little hang with the coffee.

    What are you thinking Speeder and Earl!? I can't believe what you did to me. My wife, son and I decided to take a stroll to Speeder and Earls. I walked in and ordered a cup of coffee. There were a large variety to choose from, I said to the nice lady behind the counter that I'd just like the house special. She let me know that there wasn't one that was called the 'special.' Okay I am fine with this, but then she told me that with the one cup that she handed to me, I could try as much coffee as I wanted. I could have every flavor if I'd like. Well, of course I had to have some of every flavor. They were all good and so, now I'm hyped up on joe! I really like the atmosphere. I was talking to someone I met who asked me where I lived. I told her and she replied, "ohhh.... you're by the best Speeder and Earls!" Well, it the only one I've been to, so I suppose I cannot talk to that. But, it would seem based on one person whose name I cannot remember, that this one is the best!

    S&E's is set in an old warehouse that kept a lot of that aesthetic while also creating a warm coffee shop space. The shop is truly a coffee shop with a few pastries but it excels in coffee and tea. You can use a credit card to pay (that is a big plus) and they seem set up to study if that is your jam. There were plenty of people set up all over the shop working on both occasions that we visited. The sad thing is that they did not have hot cider either time we went. The bathroom is by the imposing, industrial sized, wooden door but they do have one. While they do offer paper cups, the unspoken norm seems to be: bring your own. This may pertain more to VT as a whole and not just S&E. Our friends advised us that the shop is a good go-to but not their favorite coffee in town. The coffee selections seemed good but that is just the unintelligent musings of a tea drinker. Certainly a good shop for a hot morning beverage.

    A wonderful selection of locally brewed coffee and a standout place in the city that takes coffee seriously. Who knew, but Burlington Vermont is becoming a hotbed of artisan coffee roasters. This funky little place is well off the beaten path, but puts out a great selection of solid coffee. Everything available to drink is also available to go, either ground or whole bean. This place is for serious coffee aficionados.

    Great bagel shop! We ordered the 408 and Cowboy Dan bagel sandwiches on kitchen sink bagels. These…read morebreakfast sandwiches were a great way to start the day, YUM!

    Located Myer's while they were still on the lakefront when my family planned on moving to town and…read moreneeded a go-to bagel place. So glad I did! We're native New Yorkers and weaned on old school New York traditional savory bagels (and Kossar's bialys) ... before Cinnamon, Everything or (yikes) Rainbow bagels existed. That said, we're open to other combinations to go with our smoked fish.... which is mostly whitefish salad or lox. Myer's offers a range of savory Montreal-style bagels that we've certainly ended up preferring to that city's "too sweet for us" Fairmount or St. Viateur Bagels. Myer's still uses Montreal techniques for hand-rolled, honey-boiled and wood-fired, with a comparable size - but they do it sooo much better!!! Without a doubt, truly artisan. My favorite Myer's bagel varieties are Montreal Spice, Rosemary Sea Salt, and Kitchen Sink! Especially always bring back Montreal Spice to my NYC home or have an outstanding order with my Burlington-transplant kinfolk when they come to visit. This awesome new location on Shelburne Road is a great setting. Everyone there is also super friendly, including the manager Chris. Highly recommend making Myer's a destination to eat (or pick up eats) when in town!
