Bramble - New York Strip, and salsicca pizza. The food was absolutely incredible, no other way to put it. - Pizza Near Me - Essex, Vermont

Bramble is like walking into your grandmas kitchen, being greeted and welcomed by everyone as if they are truly happy to see you. The food is hard to describe. Don't assume this is just another flatbread pizza place. Menus items like bone marrow, pickled shrimp, oysters, beat salad, and roasted brook trout take it far beyond that. The pizza is quite remarkable. It is clear that they have given amazing attention to ingredients, including the mozzarella that stands out. It's chewy, which you only get from very fresh, well made mozzarella. The customer service is top notch. Employees are clearly trained to go above and beyond. Also, the best Old Fashioned cocktail I have ever had, and I've had a few. read more

My best friend took took me this for my 35th Birthday. I didn't know this place existed until last night and I'm glad I know about it now. s across the board. For very high end food and drinks you would probably think pretentious place to be, just the complete opposite. Beautifully rustic homey feeling right from the minute you walk in. Our waiter Phillip was amazing. He was quite knowledgeable, beyond friendly, and attentive. We were also greeted by non other than the Chef/Owner himself. You can tell he is about making sure his guests are happy and really enjoy their experience there and how much love he puts into his food, which was beyond fantastic. I believe their motto is about sharing and we did just that. We had wood fired pizzas, oysters, caviar, bone marrow, duck, steak, chicken liver moose, pork tenderloin, cheesecake, apple cake, and really yummy hand crafted cocktails and wow so fricken good. I can't wait to go back again. And I will say for 7 people to enjoy a high end end meal there, the price was right. read more

Had a fantastic dining experience at Bramble. The food was excellent!! Roasted Half Chicken was the best we've ever had, Wood Roasted New York Strip and Iberico Pork Loin were cooked perfectly and delicious. Also had the wood fire mushrooms and brussel sprouts as apps. The cocktails were great too! Very creative. Shawn the owner and chef came out and chatted with our table. Nice to hear his story and interest in our table. Bramble is a warm inviting place were the staff is super and the ambience is lovely. We are adding Bramble to our frequent flyer list!!! read more

Skirt steak was cut way too small and was not very flavorful. Timing between appetizers and entrees was too short - entrees were brought to the table without clearing appetizer plates. read more

Great menu and amazing service. A little pricy but worth it. Staff are the best. Bisquits and oysters are wonderful. Steak is perfection

Our second time eating at Bramble and can't say enough good things about the food, service and atmosphere. We started off with the Bluefish Pate, Focaccia and Carpaccio Beef. They were all fabulous! The beef was so tender and the pate was the best we've ever had. We shared several pies for dinner, our favorite was the Motto-Guzzi! We finished off with a few desserts that were all decadent. They give new meaning to the traditional lemon square. read more

Very well thought out, incredible food, service and carefully curated decor. Highly recommended for a special occasion but casual enough for an occasional drop in. Super friendly and attentive staff, zero pretense. read more

Great food here. Sat at the bar counter which allowed us to witness the quality first hand. Will be back

We had such a lovely time at Bramble. The staff are amazing and so friendly, we were well taken care of during our stay. The decor, to include the bathrooms, is so well done. The food was amazing, do not skip the bone marrow, so good! The owner was very present on the floor and going table to table, we had a lovely chat with him! We highly recommend this wonderful spot and we will be back. read more

Delicious, but pricey. The menu emphasizes sharing, which led me to assume portions would be large; they are not particularly large. We got two orders of "focaccia" which was delicious herbed bread, but I wouldn't call it focaccia. Then we also shared a salad and an entree. Thanx to the bread, we were full enough, but not stuffed. The salad was perfect; and the entree, which was a pork loin, was done to perfection, with a few fiddleheads and some white beans to round it out. The brownie we ordered to share for dessert was, again, sized for one person; and it had a strange topping, which took up more real estate than the brownie itself. Beer list wasn't particularly thrilling to us, but plenty of cocktails were on offer. The ambiance is a bit loud. Hostess, servers, bartender, etc. were all super friendly. Reservations recommended. I think they are doing an amazing job with the food, but I guess I have a few quibbles. read more

Great food and service, beautiful space. Wonderful addition to the Essex dining scene.

I've been excited about Bramble for months and went for the first time to celebrate my birthday. I was greeted with a hand written birthday card from the staff which was so incredibly thoughtful and a foreshadow of the experience ahead. The staff were all attentive and kind. There is a definite sense of pride that exudes from every team member and for good reason. The ambiance is lovely and the restaurant itself is so beautifully done. The food is absolutely phenomenal. Some of the best food I've put in my mouth. We ordered a bit of everything which is the way to go when dining here. Oysters, roasted bone marrow, wood fired mushrooms, short ribs, carpaccio, wood fired pie, burrata melon salad, and more. There was not one dish that wasn't absolutely delicious. Everything was exceptional, beautifully plated, and executed perfectly. We will all be back many times over. My new favorite restaurant. read more

Bramble - Oysters, Roasted Bone Marrow, Carpaccio, Wood Fired Mushrooms, and a Main Street Buck - Pizza Near Me - Essex, Vermont

We ordered 2 pizzas and the ribeye. Ribeye was very good though quite small, probably 7-8 ounces for $28. The pizzas on the other were edible but pretty terrible for wood oven pizza. The crust was pretty light colored and yet very hard and dry not like the traditional darkened crust with soft and fluffy inside. The crust had the texture of a bad gluten free dough and or one that was not given adequate time to rise. The atmosphere was very nice and the wait staff was very pleasant.However, there are so many better wood fire pizzas available in the greater Burlington. read more

Beautiful unique decor. Fantastic food. Different from anything I've ever eaten and wine and drink list is great. We spoke with Shawn, the co-owner for quite a while. He is very knowledgeable about wine and food. Very friendly too. Can't wait to go back and work my way through the menu. read more
