    Bright, spacious cafe with a solid sausage-egg breakfast sandwich and a super-sweet maple latte. Love the buzz and business of the place, with people all of ages working and meeting and laughing inside. Situated in the heart of the capital.

    Beautiful space with friendly employees but the baked goods were just OK. Would not recommend if you are looking for the best bakery but certainly if you need a coffee and some bread and you're in the area, Red Hen is fine.

    Ham and cheese croissant, caramelized onion savory croissant

    Really nice little bakery with a great selection of pastries and bread. We ordered ahead and stopped by to pick it up on our way out of Stowe. I'm glad we did, because on a Saturday morning they are absolutely slammed. The line was all the way back to the door and there were no tables available. We ordered a ham and cheese croissant, a caramelized onion pastry, a sticky bun, and a loaf of Mad River Grain. The croissants were very good. Good lamination, nice and buttery. I do prefer a crunchier croissant though, and I wished there was a little more ham in the ham and cheese. Of the two croissants, I preferred the caramelized onion which was loaded with onion flavor. The sticky bun was delicious, but nothing mind blowing for me. We took the loaf home for some sandwiches and toasts, and thoroughly enjoyed that! Definitely get a loaf of bread when you're picking up some pastries. Overall a solid bakery, but definitely order ahead especially on the weekend!

    Came here on Easter and I was SO glad it was open! Found this on our drive home from Stowe and was a great stop! Parking was easy and inside has a decent amount of seating. It is full of pastries and bread, it smells great! Ordered a variety of things and it was hard to choose because everything looks so good. I ordered a chocolate almond croissant, a kouign amann, and a daily focaccia with pesto. They were all delicious. I then ordered a French Onion Toastie and was so crunchy and tasted exactly like a french onion soup! It took about 10 minutes to come out. It was unique and bread was so crunchy and perfect. I thought prices were very fair and would definitely love to come back to this bakery!

    As a self-proclaimed maple creemee connoisseur, I hearby proclaim Red Hen's maple creemee the best in the world! Their Mad Maple is resplendent with rich and creamy maple deliciousness. When served in their homemade waffle cone and sprinkled with maple dust, it's like being transported to culinary heaven. Every week, the magicians at Red Hen concoct a new flavor to offer in rotation, in addition to maple. I just can't seem to try them, due to my maple creemee addiction. But others I've taken to the cafe have and have been impressed. Enjoy your sweet treat out back in the gorgeous Camp Meade community space, a perfect place for children to explore, and for adults to linger under the shade trees. Or plop down on a bench on the porch encircling the cafe. Either way, you'll be in heaven.

    Maple creemee twist

    When we visited Vermont on July 5th, we were on a mission to try a few creemees along the way. We already had one from Little Gordo's in Burlington earlier in the day so I couldn't give these guys a 5 star rating because I found Little Gordo's to be better. The prices were competitive. The bakery was closed but I'm hoping there's another opportunity to give them a try. I say that because there was one seeded baguette left which we were glad to have bought. That deserves a 4.5 star rating. The young lady assisting with orders was personable and nice. There aren't any places to sit but there is a camp area close by (not sure if customers can use the benches). This place is also next to a river walk trail which I thought was a nice touch. I specially loved their sign right outside the ice cream booth.

I know it was that long because the limit on the parking meters is two hours and I moved from one in the front to one in the back. Inside, comfortable seating and a fantastic coffee. I started off with a simple cortado that was excellent. Just the right mix of coffee and steamed (not foamed!) milk. The second drip coffee was also rich and delicious. Great service, a neat little hangout here in Barre that was excellent for working on my laptop. Five stars! [Review 1665 of 2024 - 153 in Vermont - 22688 overall]

The service is always friendly and efficient, with a relaxed vibe that makes you want to stay a while. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, perfect for catching up with friends, getting a bit of work done, or just enjoying a quiet moment with a good drink. There's a genuine local charm here that sets it apart from your typical coffee shop. My usual order is the Chai Tea Latte - their house-made chai sweetened with maple syrup and steamed with oat milk. It's rich, comforting, and perfectly balanced. On warmer days, I will switch it up with the Bueno Smoothie, which is just as delicious and refreshing. I often pair my drink with one of their fresh pastries. usually a scone and it always hits the spot. The food is thoughtfully prepared, and the menu offers a great variety of light meals and snacks that cater to different dietary preferences. Espresso Bueno has a way of making you feel like part of the community, and I always look forward to my next visit. Highly recommended!

They also offer some breakfast sandwich and custom sandwich as well. It's located on downtown waterbury along the stowe street. We parked on side of street and walked over. Inside is small cozy room with some chairs and tables with counter where you order. They have great selections of NY style bagels and cream cheese. I ended up getting a garlic bagel with maple bacon cream cheese and a buff's kickin burrito which comes with jalapeño cheddar wrap, egg, spinach, bacon, red pepper, cabot pepper jack, and home made hot sauce. The bagel was fresh, nice and chewy. Maple bacon cream cheese was creamy and sweet with subtle maple flavor. The wrap was fresh, savory and had a hint of sweetness, acidity and a kick from the home made hot sauce which was really good. Service was nice and quick. Staff seemed to be used to busy times so everyone was very quick but still attentive and nice. Price is reasonable as well the portion of the bagel, cream cheese and sandwich is good. Overall it's a great spot to enjoy tasty bagels, cream cheese and/or your own custom bagel sandwich with your own choosing. I like the customization they offer here and quality of bagel and cream cheese was good. They also sell their cream cheese as well separately and offer older bagel for free at the basket in front of the entrance for those that are in need. As a side note their bathroom is huge and has a bench which i thought was interesting.

They offer maple syrup, maple related products and some local goods and gifts. They have a theater you can learn about the process of maple syrup production and also a tasting so you can learn different types of maple syrup available and taste the difference. We walked around the premise and watch the video at the theater and shopped at the store for maple goods and maple syrups. At the end we got a small maple creemee to share. They also have a nice play area and seats outside so there were kids and family playing around. Service was good and it's nice that they let you try the maple syrups. For those that are new it's very interesting to learn about the difference in maple syrup available. Overall it's a great sugarhouse to stop by if you are in the area. I can see that this is a great place to go if you want to learn more about maple syrup as well. Its also family friendly.
