For a deliciously refreshing drink, try the matcha latte with wildflower honey. It's made to order,…read morewith the best possible ingredients. My matcha drink was smooth and creamy without being overly sweet. I've had matcha that tasted grassy but clearly this is so good that I can drink several in a day! You'll have to be patient though as all drinks are made to order. The wait time isn't bad as the store gives off that zen feeling, and its enjoyable to browse their extensive tea and honey selection while waiting. I especially like to replenish my Saratoga wildflower honey as well as try other flavors when I am here. The store is very organized and there is no shortage of teas if you are a true tea lover! A great way to start your day or get an afternoon boost if you need a lil something special!

Fresh‑squeezed lemonade topped with their Karner Blue Lavender Tea and sweetened with honey -- it sounded intriguing, but it tasted even better. Everyone absolutely loved it and talked about it for the rest of the day. It was the perfect refreshing treat after an afternoon of book shopping. The shop itself is lovely, warm, and inviting, with a calm energy that makes you want to linger. The staff was friendly, and the whole space feels thoughtfully put together. It's exactly the kind of place you're excited to discover and even more excited to return to. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

My grandmother was nuts about honey. She had some every morning for breakfast with toast…read more She had this huge 20 pound vat of honey from somewhere in VT. It was good. Fast forward 25 years. I have a family now, and I'm eating organic, etc... And I want good, organic raw honey. So after a few misses I remember Champlain Valley Apiaries! Google and my order is on its way. The raw crystallized honey is fantastic & my favorite. The liquid honey is also tasty. I like that the honey is sweet but not cloyingly so like store-bought brands. It has a flavor I think is superior. Now I can share this with my family.

We first tried it when we saw it…read moreat the Lebanon (NH) Coop a long time ago and have been ordering it directly from Champlain Valley Apiaries ever since, both when we were living in NH and more recently since our move to AZ. In between orders we have tried other raw honeys but none compare. It is worth the shipping cost for it to come from VT to AZ. Not only is the honey extraordinary but any contact with the people that work there has been outstanding. If you love honey, try this - you won't be disappointed!

This spot is definitely a hidden gem. We actually stopped here three times , everything in there is sooo good . As soon as your stepped in it smells absolutely amazing. The first time we decided to get raw honey , chocolate chip cookies , sour dough bread which was so amazing and so delicious, the next couple of times we tried the jelly cookies which was soo good . The brownies is alao very very delicious. I highly recommend trying it out.. We wanted to try the other bread but we just didnt care for the fact that it says canola oil on it I wish the owner used a different substitute for that oil . The service is self serve, there is a book in there to fill out to let the owner know your name, what did you purchase , how much and what was the method of payment . I highly recommend stopping at this spot. You will absolutely love it !

This is for delivery only!…read more I ordered two giant bottles - Tuscan Herb and Blood orange and am very pleased with the flavors. The Tuscan can go on so many different dishes, my favorite is using it in a quick pasta with spicy Italian seasoning and parm. The blood orange is very good in dressings and on fish. My only criticism is that they did not provide the spouts so the oil pours out nicely. I think with ordering two of their largest bottles, those should be included.

This place has such a homey vibe and you feel welcome right away. The staff greeted my boyfriend and I and walked us through all of the beer and food offerings. I wish I was hungry because their food sounded incredible! We tried several of their beers and really enjoyed them. They offer lots of different styles and you can order a flight of four, which is great. My favorite was the Pumpkin Ale. They also have several different local wines available. We'll definitely be back to try their food and more of their beers!

We had a great meal here with a large party of 12. They do not have a kid's menu but our kids still…read moreenjoyed along with pretty much everyone in our group. Our waiter was super attentive and even though it took some time for the food to come out, I think given the quality of everything we ate, it was worth it. I got the raspberry mint mojito cocktail which was delicious and I pinched a sip or two of kid's lemonade made from fresh lemons, perfect level of sweetness. We tried the sweet potato pakoras and lumpia and the trio of house made dips (we liked the green mint-e one best). Everything was tasty, including the sauces that came up with them. Our kids shared the ramen which they split into two large bowls that didn't even look like a split dish given how much it was. My wife got the spare ribs which melted off the bones and had great flavor. The scallop dish I ordered came with six scallops that were a good size and also came with some gnocci, a delicious and unique sauce, and an unusual lobster with veggie type of ceviche salad accoutrement. I have the sense that the menu changes regularly here. The chef/owner came out and greeted us after the meal to ask how everything was and we could honestly respond that it was our best meal of the week. Subsequently we tried to sample many items from their desert menu and again Bastard did not disappoint. Surprisingly the "S'Mores," a more adult take on the kid's classic, was one of our favorites. Given the unique take on a variety of globally inspired dishes and great attention to detail, I would love to try Bastard again the next time I'm in the area.

Bastard was recommended by a friend of mine several times and I finally got there when friends were…read morevisiting from out of town. I loved everything that I tasted and ordered. These folks know what they're doing. Korean wings were spicy as advertised, but hit the mark on crunch, savoriness and just the right level of sweetness. I could have made a meal out of these, but I was nice and shared 'em. We also had a Mediterranean dip sampler that was outstanding. I then had a fabulous salad with Thai-inspired mango shrimp. Others at the table had steak, homemade pappardelle pasta and a version of a wedge salad. Rave reviews all around. Dessert? We almost declined. Instead, we all shared a piece of the gigantic, insanely good slice of baklava cheesecake. Our server was the bomb. Wish I could remember her name. I look forward to going back as the menu changes with the seasons.

I don't know if it's a placebo effect but everything I've ever purchased at FFF has been phenomenal. Knowing the produce is grown on the premises makes it taste better? It could sway my opinion to a more positive direction but there is no arguing with the sweetness of freshly picked sugar snap peas. I started snacking on them on the drive home and could barely stop myself. The clean earthiness of small beets, small enough to leave the skins on and roast them. Tastes like clean dirt. Love that. There was also a varietal of bok choy. Salt, olive oil, oven for a few minutes. That...just that...was dinner. It's a weird thing to taste how far away I've come from locally grown food; to have my tastes muted by a commercially grown industry. FFF food is like coming home to where we belong.

I knew nothing about this place when my wife suggested for a surprise lunch on a Saturday…read moreafternoon, and we had to rush over as they have limited hours. It was cold and raining outside and I was happy to get out of it and relax. Sadly, I quickly found out her surprise involved eating outside under a tent in the cold and rain on a November day. Sigh. At least they had blankets on the benches. We ordered in the far tent and the menu board was both helpful (it listed everything in each entree, including onions) and annoying (it indicated no substitutions were allowed, including onions). Not to be deterred, I picked the pepperoni pizza with hot honey, basil and Calabrian chili peppers. My wife ordered the Margherita pizza. Both were ready in about 15 minutes, but upon delivery to our table it became clear that a couple of things were off. First, my wife's pizza was cold and mine was pipping hot. Second, mine had so much basil- which in places was left in 2-3 leaf bunches- that perhaps they just cleaned out the pantry for the last order of the day. The crust in spots were burned, but I could live with that. However, it was so floppy that it couldn't be picked up under any condition. Everything but the outer inch of crust was like a thin wet tortilla. And their plastic cutlery wasn't up to the challenge, ripping the pizza toppings off and turning my pizza into a casserole. That being said, the flavors were wonderful on my pizza. The hot honey made for a really tasty flavor balance, and the copious amounts of curling pepperoni were a nice change of pace from the cheap stuff. The peppers were good too, and I wish I could source some locally. My wife's pizza was okay, though the whole mozzarella clumps reminded of dollops of Ricotta and they were very cold as if they were added after baking. Odd. I don't mind paying for expensive pizza if it is good. I am also not a pizza snob and will gladly eat subpar pizza. But, to overpay ($26 for mine alone) for pizza that is just a mess in a cardboard box rubs me the wrong way. The same goes for buying ($24) a cold pizza. The dessert we ordered was a Paris-Brest, and being a choux fan I absolutely loved it. Delicious with hints of coffee, almonds, nuts, and some flavorings I couldn't place, I would quickly come back here just for that. As for their pizza, I just don't know. On a nice pleasant day it would be fun, but too many mistakes on our pizzas makes me leery of ordering them again for those prices.
