    Stopped in to have some lunch on our way through South Burlington. Sat at the bar with a bunch of locals. Excellent service from Kyle who ran the whole place effortlessly. Very good draft list. Had an excellent burger & fries. The Old Post has a lot of character and I can imagine it being very lively later in the day with various activities. Conveniently located off RT.7 with plenty of parking. I am so glad we stopped for lunch. I recommend this restaurant without hesitation.

    Great bar food selection and staff is very helpful and friendly. Nice outdoor area where they have performers on fridays. It's a good spot to chill with friends and family.

    My husband and I are on vacation from MA. We had dinner at The Old Post. Kyle, the bartender could not have nicer, and more welcoming. We sat at the corner of the bar, and had drinks and food. The ambience is wonderful, but what was so wonderful to see was the many regulars who came in, and how warmly they were greeted. We had salad and wings and a cheeseburger. All were delicious, but the wings were amazing! Crispy and tender and juicy. If we lived here in Burlington or Shelburne this would be our go to spot, our regular hang out. Also, the horse sculpture behind the bar was so beautiful, I had to take a picture! Thank you, Kyle, for making a couple of people on vacation feel like they were right at home!

    So, I should have posted this addendum sooner. I don't log in here often, so it's been a couple years. But I found the gem below, seemingly from the owner, Kim, as a 'compliment' to my comment in the past. It was from 'Kim R' who is exactly who I was talking about in my original post. It's a pretty ridiculous 'red herring' argument to state how much in ticket sales were donated. By law they MUST be donated. That wasn't my point at all. It was that she was partaking in a personal gain at that moment. I still remember the situation. It's still bad form. This is not someone you should be giving business to. My facts were 100% as happened. Here's what I received (screenshot attached): First of all there is only one owner in this establishment. She has raised OVER $150,000 through ticket sales towards The Mike Loyer Foundation. Please do not write a review on something that you do not have the correct facts! EVERYONE understands that gambling is a game of chance.

    This place is a relief from the pretentious food in church street market. Come out and eat with the locals

    Portions are pretty big too, we were pleasantly surprised by the number of jalapeño poppers that came in a basket.

    Nice snacks! We got the salmon dip (great - recommended!) with gluten free crackers (rice?),…read morepickled egg ($3- overpriced!!!!!), and pickled veggies in an over abundance of oil. Overall WAY overpriced for the quantity/quality ratio!! The Malbec was GREAT and passion fruit margarita (B+\A-) but needs more alcohol for the price. C'mon!! The folks working here are helpful and friendly and LOVE the overall vibe (chill, friendly, welcoming, dog friendly, tree shaded). Music volume on the outside patio is better this visit. 1 star deduction for lack of value

    A sister restaurant to Foam Brewers!…read more We spent a weekend in Burlington, VT visiting breweries, wine bars, a comedy show, eating, shopping and it was wonderful. Deep City was a recommendation for brunch from a local. It is the sister restaurant to Foam Brewers (right next door). When we walked in there was a small wait but not bad. We headed over to the brewery to grab coffee and to check it out. It is definitely a cool spot. They have a huge selection of beer, a small wine program (who knew) and small bites. Unfortunately they did not have TVs or else we would've come back to watch the football game but we did purchase some beer before heading back over for brunch at Deep City. The menu here is a little more Mexican-forward think Huevos Rancheros, but there was still plenty of items that looked appealing. We split the banana bread with maple walnut cream cheese (to die for) to share as an app which was fresh and delicious. I also ordered a fruit cup which was also good. We then shared their Huevos Verdes which is similar to Huevos Rancheros except it came with a tomatillo salsa. It was good but very sloppy to eat. Overall it was a great experience, and service was phenomenal. A great brunch place while visiting Burlington VT.
