The restaurant is a small space near the building entrance with a few places to sit inside and more out front where they have a pick-up window. We stopped in for a coffee and sandwich. Breakfast had just ended and I was sad, but here we are. So no 'all day' breakfast sandwiches here. Maybe because I was hoping for something else my sandwich was a bit disappointing. I can only describe it as bland. So take that with a grain of salt. It may be just what you want. The staff were pleasant. Food quality is good. Restaurant is clean. Outdoor seating is nice and there was a child booster seat available outside during our visit. Public restrooms are around the corner in the basement of the building.

I ordered the egg, cheese sandwich on a biscuit (because we always like to try the local restaraunt's biscuits) and I added their maple sausage. I wanted to get an almond croissant as well until I saw a fly in the pastry cabinet just have his way on all the pastries. NOPE!! This was probably one of the worse breakfast sandwiches I have ever had to date. The biscuit itself was hard as a rock, dry and crumbled upon touch. It was lousy as heck. The maple sausage was a thick patty, but small, almost like a quarter size round compared to the size of the biscuit. So for what sandwich and a cup of coffee was around $23. Heck no! Was that even worth it with how bad inflation is these days Not sure how they have such high ratings, but just be warned. You're welcome!

Didn't have a reservation and there were plenty of open tables. Not a huge menu, but got a Caesar salad, little neck clams, and a side of tallow fried Brussels sprouts. They all came out at once, which was a little odd because I would've preferred the salad first. The Caesar salad was extremely large, you could easily share it between two if not three people. The croutons were good. The romaine was very white/stems though, I prefer more of the leafy green part but this was pretty much all crunch white stems. The clams were alright but I would've preferred the Cajun garlic white wine sauce, not the creamy tomato sauce they make it with now. The clams were all opened but most of them were not warm besides the bottom ones in the sauce. The Brussels sprouts was a tiny portion and very dried out. Certainly not worth the $9 for a side. They had no flavor either, it's like they had been cooked earlier in the day and just sat under the heater or re heated. Service was fine. This would've been around a 3 star experience, as I left with a pretty mediocre impression, however less than a few hours later I started feeling very sick and got diarrhea and started vomiting. I rarely vomit, I don't have a sensitive stomach. The clams must've been bad and I shouldn't have eaten lukewarm clams. This made for a horrible evening. I was excited to try this place due to the good reviews but it went from disappointing to downright disastrous.

The place was super packed at 1:45 so we knew it had to be good. I really like how Vermont's restaurants have a big emphasis on locally grown FRESH foods. This place gives you an earthy almost California-Like vibe as soon as you walk in. I think they have a great concept it's a great little cafe serving breakfast, lunch and even early healthy casual dinner with a slight Greek twist. We ordered a cup of soup, three salads, 2 double espressos and a sandwich the bill was a bit over $80 so it's not super cheap but then again as long as it's good who cares(ALSO the portions are huge). The salads were good. Everything tasted fresh but I expected a little more (I had the Mediterranean-the lemon tahini dressing was great though). The sandwich though WOW that shit was aaaaahhhhmaaazingggg. I haven't had a sandwich that good in a VERY LONG TIME. Incase you're wondering it was The Local which came with Vermont white cheddar, turkey, pesto mayo & baacooonn. I could of had 10 no joke. I would definitely return & build my own salad this time- adding the lemon tahini dressing forshure!!! Ps. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because my father in law who is nicer than me x a million even brought up the fact we paid $3 for avocado that he didn't see or taste. If in fact he just missed it that's a pretty expensive tablespoon of avocado. I would say that a half an avocado is super fair (for both the customer & the business) for $3. read more

I live and work in the Stowe area. With over 55 restaurants to choose from, this is my first choice for breakfast, brunch, lunch and just hanging at the bar, using the wifi. Most days I have trouble deciding what to have because there are so many delicious options and the special board is always changing. If it's available, try the homemade corned beef hash, it is the best I've ever had. After reading one of the other reviews, I have to laugh because they clearly made some assumptions based on the business name. For those of you who don't know, here is the definition of green: the hue of that portion of the visible spectrum lying between yellow and blue. NO WHERE on the sign OR the menu does it say "organic, vegetarian, or vegan". They DO offer scrumptious meat-free options, build-your-own salads and fresh juice, but it is not some hippy vegan hang-out. When you read the word GREEN, remember that Vermont is the "GREEN MOUNTAIN STATE" and the owner of this fine establishment, aptly named Athena, is the Goddess referred to in the name. read more

Went there today for breakfast. I was excited that they do offer gluten free bread. I ordered a pesto egg, spinach,cheese,and tomato sandwich which I knew would be expensive because I asked for gluten free bread but they messed up my sandwich. I had to ask them to fix it as they forgot to put spinach and cheese in it. Then it was heated so the bread got weird. When they brought my corrected sandwich out the waitress said "dont worry I got you" ummm... no you didn't. The sandwich was ok the other food looked great coming out. Yet I am most concerned that they are not complying to safety/sanitation compliance. No one should wear open toed shoes in a place that serves food. It makes me question what other questionable things go on there. read more

First time coming for lunch. Got the Falafel Gyro, Goddess Grilled Cheese, Asian Salad, and two muffins (for breakfast tomorrow). The Falafel Gyro is absolutely amazing. The falafels themselves seem homemade with corn and have this perfect crunchy exterior. The Goddess Grilled Cheese was good as well, I think it would be better on sourdough and cooked a bit longer. The Asian Salad was good and fresh as well. I would definitely come back. read more

The Turkey Bacon Avocado with cheddar cheese and pickled red onions is fresh, tasty, easy to eat - a favorite. Panuozzo is an interesting creation using sourdough pizza to wrap around fresh burrata, roasted garlic cloves, roasted red peppers and pesto - the burrata is super fresh and rich type of mozzarella but sandwich is very messy (both hands and face) and we reeked of garlic afterwards. Seriously, the garlic taste and odor built up and literally lingered for 24h - so make sure to share this with your loved ones so all of you are in the garlic group. We would order the Panuozzo again but probably leave off the garlic. Bahn Mi is an interpretation of a classic Vietnamese Bahn Mi - it is tasty but contained no cucumbers, less cilantro and pickled carrots/daikon plus the gravy made the bread soggy. It is still good and we would order again but ask for the gravy on the side as a dipping sauce. All 3 sandwiches were winners and we loved our food adventure. We were missing pickles from 2 of our 3 sandwiches but the 1 pickle we had was good. The sandwiches were hearty so we didn't eat the fries.
