A no laptop policy keeps things flowing and encourages folks to talk vs work. Breakfast menu is available all day while lunch starts at 11 and goes until close at 3p. We tried a few things: * croissant - super flaky and perfectly made. * breakfast sandwich - with sausage. Buttery and crispy edges toast with fried egg and melted cheese with sausage. One of my favorite breakfast sandwiches ever. * banner eighteen - a play on cheesesteak with broccoli mushrooms and shaved steak in a sesame hogie. This one had slight spice and a slight taste reminiscent of a combination pizza. It's a big sandwich and quite tasty. * oatmeal raisin cookie - not too sweet which I loved. Chewy. * fresh baquette. Bread . . . . . * maple lemonade - slightly sweet with a good bit of tartness. It was good! I'd definitely comeback here if I'm craving some sandwiches

We came…read moreduring a busy lunch rush, and although the cafe was crowded, the line moved quickly and we received our food fast as well. We tried the eat the east breakfast sandwich ($11) and the vermonter sandwich ($16). I especially liked the vermonter sandwich and the bread it came on. The cafe also sells various bread items and baked goods. One thing to note is that since the cafe is counter-serve, seating is also first come first serve. We were able to snag a seat right as someone left, but for that reason I would recommend coming at a less peak time if able. August First is deservedly a busy spot in Burlington and I would be there often if I were a local.

Good to know. Lots of things in the menu I didn't recognize by name (would be nice to have photos of the food near each different item. But I went with the Dóner Kebab, which is basically thin sliced marinated meat placed in a thin bread (like a flour tortilla) with some pickled veg and it has Tzatziki sauce in a little cup that you can pour or dip. The meat was tender and flavorful along with the pickled veggies, made for a balanced 'sandwich'/wrap. I also tried both kinds of Baklava and each were good, but I like the original pistachio ones best. The server was nice and explained anything on the menu I had questions about. He was also from Turkey and was very knowledgeable about the food and culture. The atmosphere was open and welcoming, lots of Turkey images on the walls and the hanging lamps were cute. Will have to come again and try a few new/different items

Service was good, attentive, didn't make us feel rushed. However, what are we doing with the pricing? One overly crispy potato latke (like only hard extremely crunchy potato in the entire ONE latke) that cost $16 lol ... I have to laugh. You must be kidding me. It was probably 1/4 of a potato with a nice yogurt like topping and some fermented turmeric diced cauliflower. But that ONE, SMALL, latke $16??? Pretty awful. Do better. I'm so sad this is what's happening with this restaurant... please, at least give your customers a reasonably fair serving size if you're going to charge such exorbitant amounts. A new dish, a red pepper flatbread with burrata and tomato and basil. Very good. Again, extremely over priced. The size of one medium piece of naan bread with nice toppings and it cost $24. I beg to differ. These are all snacks and some are snacks for mouse sized humans, so tiny (referring to latke) I truly don't understand. I will reiterate, food quality is good and food always seems fresh. That's about all I can continue to confirm/say positive from my last two experiences over the last 3-5 months. I am sad.

The staff was friendly, patient, and welcoming, even though it was close to closing time. You can tell they take pride in serving quality creemees and creating a nice experience for customers. The ambiance was simple and clean, with that classic local ice cream stand charm. It's the kind of spot where you can just relax, enjoy your treat, and take in a quiet moment. We're glad Mr. Creemee was open.
