What you'd hope for in an updated rustic old Vermont building. 2. The service has been excellent on both visits, with the caveat that breakfast is busy and the food took a long time to arrive. 3. Breakfast was solid. Not transcendent but solid eggs and toast and home fries and coffee and everybody seemed happy. Room for improvement 1. For Putney Vermont - get some decent vegan and vegetarian options. 2. The veggie burger was bean based, mushie old-school 70's style. Fell apart as soon as you picked it up. 3. The cheeseburger was good. It's just that for $18 you could show a little more attention to detail. A greenish slice of winter tomato. A single leaf of iceberg lettuce. 2 ringlets off an onion slice. And no pickle. 4. The fries that came with it had to be sent back to be cooked longer. And there was a big puddle of oil on the plate once I slid the par-cooked fries onto a side dish. The server was lovely about it and they came back fast and cooked through. But my guess is the oil wasn't hot enough hence the grease puddle. 5. The chicken orzo soup was meh. I don't try it. Brought it home for sick family member. And sorry but my personal pet peeve - the pre-calculated tip options were 20,22,25% and all calculated on top of the sales tax. Understand that it has gotten VERY expensive to go out for a burger for your average local. So putting a little more attention into it would be greatly appreciated. All the best, and thank you.

Everything seemed off and was unremarkable. We ordered two mocktails that were incredibly bland, no flavor. The salt cod brandade was insanely salty (salted cod brandade should have a savory, pleasant hint of salt, but it should not taste overwhelmingly salty or briny). The ciabatta vegetable sandwich was simply okay, the watercress and pear salad, while the greens were fresh, the slices of pear had brown spots and the salmon, generally cooked to perfection, was underdone. The waitstaff, while attentive, didn't seem as engaging and friendly as they have been in the past. Overall, the food lacked a wow factor. Hoping they were having an off day because a $100+ lunch should be enjoyable and warrant a return visit.

On the positive side, our meals were quite good. I got the Thai chicken salad, and my dining companion got the tuna melt. I especially appreciate the attention to animal welfare in their menu, with humanely raised poultry and dolphin-safe tuna. Our meals were filling and tasty. Would return, knowing that service may not be the highlight of our visit.

The maple toast was sweet, delicious and just what I wanted today. A cute place where you can sit out on the sidewalk or inside the cute little coffee shop you order at the bar. They call out your name for coffee and bring your dish to you. Everybody was nice and welcoming. Now when I walk into a building looking at me you can tell which way I voted and inside this place 99% of the people voted in a different direction. That doesn't bother me and it didn't bother them. They treated me with welcoming spirit and a wonderful meal. All I could think of is I woke up for breakfast but what did I care? Wonderful meal with wonderful people in a great little town. I highly recommend it!
