    Iced coffee and Maple Donut
    Saynais W.

    The Kru customer make up of both flat landers in search of a spot to do their college assignments and the classic Burlington millennial speaks to their ability to successfully reach multiple audiences. With the leaves beginning to fall, I felt called to order an autumnal baked good: a maple-glazed apple cider donut. The maple frosting sharply cut through the cake donut, adding an evenly distributed Vermont-flare to each bite. The donut was clearly made this morning with care and precision, icing still soft and the donut still fluffy. The head baker at Kru certainly knows their profession well. The iced coffee was delicious, with the vanilla syrup blending smoothly alongside the coffee. The texture is delightfully silky. I was energized after drinking half of the large size.

    I love Kru coffee! We came on a Sunday morning in the summer around 9 am and there was no line. The cutest, most comfortable spot to get caffeinated, chill, get some work done, meet up with friends, etc. They hit all the stops from their superb ambiance to just having great coffee and food. I love how big the space is. They have tons of seating-couches, booths, tables, and more. Awesome decor. Great vibes. Nice music. They make their baked goods in house, the scone I got was delicious. Just how a scone should taste-crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. My dad really liked the breakfast sandwich he got, he said the ingredients tasted really high quality and that the nitro cold brew was the best he'd ever had. Employees were very friendly. Overall, top tier coffee shop!

    Best coffee shop I've tried in VT! Lots of places to sit, eclectic menu, and everything was amazing. We tried a matcha latte and the special latte called sage against the machine with sage, brown sugar, and orange. If I lived nearby I would be a regular.

    Whether you want a good cuppa Joe while walking shopping in downtown Burlington, or a cool little spot to hang, read or study--Kru serves all those purposes. Loved the vibe of the shop, the beans were perfectly roasted and full of flavor, and I had my selection of outdoor / indoor seating. Super friendly baristas from ordering to pickup. Probably one of the bigger coffee shops right off the main strip. I would definitely recommend.

    Latte and muffin
    Ryan M.

    Can't say enough good things honestly. Every new city I visit, I find the local coffee shop. Kru has a great vibe, cool merch, nice staff, a great location, and the muffin that I had (raspberry chocolate chip) may be one of the best I have EVER had. I would highly recommend this place.

    Breakfast sandwich and mocha latte

    Delicious mocha latte and BLT breakfast sandwich. Spicy sauce, egg, avocado, bacon, lettuce and tomato. This sandwich was absolutely amazing. Nice coffee shop. Good location. Very busy.

    Stopped here on our last day after struggling to decide where to grab a coffee due to many places being closed for Labor Day. We were very pleased with the choice, as the coffee was VERY good. The wait was a tad longer than I would have liked, but not unreasonable. The overall place was very clean and fresh looking, with a fun layout and numerous seating options to both relax or get some work done. The overall vibe of the place was interesting - my initial reaction was that it seemed like they combined the Apple Store and Abercrombie, but then decided to make it a coffee place. The music lightened up a bit a moment later, but the image stayed stuck in my head regardless. I'm still not sure if that's good or bad, but it seemed like a good place where you could somehow both relax and be productive.

    Lotta Colada Tea

    I visited Burlington for this first time and was introduced to this coffee spot by my hosts! The interior of Kru is so aesthetically pleasing and modern, so at first glance there's already a positive feeling. The ambiance reminds me of a hip spot that one can relax with friends, family and acquaintances over a snack and beverages, and perhaps get some quick work done. I have tried the Lotta Colada tea (tastes like pina colada with some lingering lavender flavor), Nutella latte, Godfather, and Nitro Brew coffees and they all tasted amazing! There are also sandwiches and a variety of pastries in the store. The staff was always very nice and also made sure that they were patient with me; I even asked about their personal recommendations when I felt stuck on multiple options and they never hesitated to assist me even when the shop seemed busy. Don't hesitate to visit Kru if you need a hot/cold beverage around church street!

    Coffee and food 5 stars. Service 0 stars. Would've love to give it more stars but can't get past such poor and disrespectful service.

We tried the pide and chicken kebab, and everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The service was friendly and attentive without feeling rushed. Definitely save room for the pistachio baklava! A lovely spot on Church Street for lunch or dinner, and somewhere I'd happily visit again.

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

First thing to know: this place is a sandwich shop by day, cocktail lounge by night. Second thing to know: make sure you REALLY love meat. The deli: I honestly don't know what to say...but I will anyway! First off, they offer about 12 regular sandwiches, half of them hot and half of them cold. They also have specials and make your owns. Keep in mind that all sandwiches can be hot (or cold I'm guessing!). One thing is that most sandwiches have minimal veg ingredients but it's definitely worth it. Staff-wise, all the guys (and yes they were all men when I visited) were really nice and helpful. Definitely ask their thoughts if you can't decide!! On my visit, I ordered their spin on a Cuban and...daaang! The sandwich weighed AT LEAST 2 lbs!!! What's more, it was mostly meat! This is the first sandwich that I have enjoyed an appropriate bread to meat ratio. I mean this thing was severely pregnant with meat! Whew! Honestly, I probably could have saved half of it for lunch but it was so good that I ate all of it. In a separate visit, the cocktail lounge was very posh in an old school speakeasy jazz club type of way. All of the menus are glued to actual books (is that legal??) and they have a great cocktail list. Their chocolate cake is excellent as well! The room is divided into a music room and the bar area. You can still see the music but it was nice to be divided if you wanted to talk vs listen to music. Overall: the sandwich will hold you over for a week (or at least the day!) and the cocktails are great!
