The only reason this place even gets a second star is because the guy making the coffee is a beast. Turning it out and doing it quickly. Where to start. First there is a dog walking around inside the store, wasn't a huge deal to me...until I saw it walk In the back where they were making the food. How does the health department allow that? My daughter and I waited over half an hour for an açaí bowl and avocado toast. They weren't back up mind you, everyone that came in for that half hour after us got their food pretty quickly. After 15 minutes I reminded them that I was there and gave them the benefit of the doubt, I know on occasion orders get misplaced or lost. We waited another 20 minutes before our order was made. At no point was I apologized to or even acknowledged for that matter. By the time we got our food the coffees that we were bringing back to the rest of the family were cold. I can excuse a lot of stuff but how do you not acknowledge or apologize for something like this? read more

Greek Wrap with balsamic tofu, sundried tomato puree, feta, olives, and mixed greens: heavenly! Best unfried tofu I've ever had. Quick service and nice ambiance (loved the dogs) with view of river. read more

Twisted Halo - Twisted Halo (Balsamic Tofu) Greek Wrap - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Waitsfield, Vermont

What a local treasure! I ordered a cup of tea and expected a tea bag in a cup of hot water. Instead I received an expertly steeped cup of premium tea! Also the churro donuts are not to be missed! read more

Absolutely fantastic donut!! Unlike any other texture, freshness and raspberry glaze was delicious!!

Exceptional barista and exceptional donuts - a gem in the Valley. I'm someone who's in Waitsfield on a weekly basis, and am beyond excited when good places pop up in the Mad River Valley. I'm also often skeptical because these places so often leave just when they become beloved. I was significantly bummed when I found out that The Sweet Spot closed up shop. They were solid, and scratched an itch for providing solid coffee and breakfast options in one of the best locations in town. Twisted Halo is hitting similar notes, but is excelling with good focus. Their food menu is extremely limited to basically just a build-your-own breakfast sammy, and donuts, but both are exceptional. Their coffee is also superb, thanks to an exceptionally skilled third-wave oriented barista (something that I feel is rarer than I wish to admit in the state). Every single shot of espresso I've had pulled from their Slayer has been textured, sweet, and pleasant. Maybe now I can avoid risking life and limb on the mountain pass in the winter when getting to Royal Oak is impractical! This place is worth the 15m detour off i89 if you're in the area (as is the rest of the town!). And if you're a local, it's worth breaking open the wallet for. Selfishly, I hope that these guys stick the landing, and stick around for a long while. Waitsfield deserves them! read more

We live on Long Island and there's a whole crew of us that travel to VT to enjoy the mountains in the winter. This is our favorite spot to stop in before we start our day... and sometimes again after we're done boarding. The doughnuts are made with a brioche dough that we all agree is out of this world. I've only been lucky on one occasion to try their more cake like doughnuts and they have a great texture with some wild flavors (I think the one I had was blood orange) Get the maple glaze. He seems simple but they make that one as a standard for a reason. They have other rotating flavors but the lemon/blueberry and the strawberry seem to make pretty regular appearances. The strawberry is the best strawberry doughnut. Get that one too. If you're fortunate enough to be there on the weekend Emma gets nuts and makes cream puffs that are insane. You can see the flecks of vanilla in the pastry cream and you will not be upset at the amount of cream packed into these guys. You will need a napkin though. Churro doughnuts also make an appearance randomly but you gotta get there real early cause they're gone fast. They're best fresh but we've left them in the car all day while we boarded and they were still an amazing treat for the end of the day. A quick shout out to Emma for making Justin and I Boston Creams on our last visit. The pastry cream is just out of this world and those guys were MASSIVE. Ok ok I'd be a fool if I didn't also mention that they do more than doughnuts. The coffee/tea/lattes isn't a wide selection but it doesn't have to be when it's this good. Their drinks are simple, delicious and everything I want before boarding. They also offer custom breakfast sandwiches and they have a handful of lunch items (sandwiches and bowls) that we keep going back for. I never leave reviews but this place is truly something special. The owners are so awesome it was like saying goodbye to good friends when the season ended. Besides producing high quality products, the whole place has a great atmosphere with multiple areas to get cozy in and an outside seating area that overlooks the river. If you're really lucky you might even see a pup or two... read more

Was in town for some spring skiing and stopped into this shop on our way out of town. Amazing little coffee shop. Coffee was phenomenal, donut was one of the best I've ever had and the breakfast sandwich was also 10/10. Great vibe and sweet spot right on the river. read more

WOW! Great welcoming place and the blueberry lemon glazed donut was so good I'm going back for more!!

While exploring Waitsfield, my wife and I happened upon this little shop and ventured on in. We were warmly greeted by a young woman named Emma who proceeded to introduce us to her unique style of donuts. I especially appreciated her attention to sugar in moderation in her glazes along with real fruit. Amazing. I had a blueberry glazed donut and a churro donut. I've had churros but never a churro donut. And when I tell you that the almost creamy interior surrounded by a cinnamon, sugar, and crunchy exterior nearly made me cry, I'm not exaggerating. It was SO good. I'm going to be making more trips (from Burlington)...which is well worth it. And...I hear there's a potential to order catering? Emma, I enjoy great food and you provide it. read more

Favorite coffee shop in the area. Good coffee, unfussy food and bright, happy atmosphere!
