    BEST COFFEE!!!! Staff is so friendly and they get their coffee right every time. Would choose this place over any Starbucks drink any day

    Said it closes at 7pm but was closed at 6:45 when I arrived.

    Finally got back here to review. I stopped by mid morning but missed most of the pastries. Options were limited but they were good. They are supplied by a local bakery. Coffee options were pretty limited. I was hoping for maybe a cold brew or even a nitro coffee option but no luck. I had an espresso and it was very good. Great flavor. Reasonably priced. I stood at the counter for 3-4 minutes with nobody else being waited on just waiting. Not a big deal but the barista wasn't very personable. The atmosphere is relaxing and laid back, light music in the background. An easy place to get some work done but I would think there are better options locally to do so. Lack of personality and lack of menu options unfortunately lose stars. The last time I was here it closed 38 minutes early and hours of operation were not updated.

    Very friendly staff. Nice large interior, clean. Flat white and Americano both excellent. Interesting homes line the area.

    Great relaxed environment to get some work done or catch up with a friend. I like that they have a variety of seating options and plugs to charge devices. Open later than some other coffee shops, but this isn't a late night kind of place. Definitely has helped me prep for many an assignment throughout the year! Their Smoked Maple Latte is really good and they even have vegan donuts on the weekends. Plus a variety of loose teas, so lots if options available. Haven't tried the sorbet yet, it's on my list.

    I enjoyed my visit to their Winooski location during my last visit to Burlington, so for this round, I hightailed it on foot from The Lang House to Scout's fresh location near the edge of Lake Champlain. The space offers wrap around ceiling to floor windows and plentiful tables and countertops for those looking to set up shop and work for a few hours. The fella working the table this morning was very friendly and happy to answer my questions regarding the difference between a Cortado and Americano (I can never keep all the names straight!). Needless to say, my Cortado was delicious, the wifi was speedy and I loved my little spot by the window. For those on the hungrier side, you'll also find pastries and ice cream here.

    Originally written and posted on a duplicate profile on 4/28/2014: Within walking distance to Lake views and amidst the Old North End community, Scout & Co. is a new fixture in the area. The coffee is excellent, especially the espresso drinks. Looking forward to when they produce ice cream, which will be a nice summer time treat while walking toward the lake during the day. The pastries are made by Misery Loves Co. and delicious with coffee. This is a great space for meeting, reading, and leisurely people watching activities in the ONE.

    Beet marmalade and candied walnut sorbet and Parisian "gold bar" almond pastry. Exquisite.

    LOVE. Sampled their excellent ice creams in a variety of interesting flavors. My favorites: (all of them! But specifically) beet marmalade and candied black walnut sorbet(everywhere I want in ice cream. Sweet, tart, milky, and a tad crunchy); strawberry hops (strong strawberry flavor with a hoppy beer after ore); Apple miso and seed (Miso over Apple flavor but you get a sense of both); rhubarb and black licorice (very licorice-y) Parisian "gold bar" pastry that looked like a muffin and tasted like I would expect a gold bar to taste like. Brown sugar sweet and decadent. Almond yum. Melt in your mouth soft. Cute espresso but tiny cup. Very European like in design. Lots of details on the espresso options and their "flavor notes".

    $3 hipster doughnuts. They're fine. But no doughnut is worth $3. I've had so much better for so much cheaper.

    They recently began stocking a local tea company's offerings and typically have local treats (including top notch donuts from Miss Weinerz).

There's also a whole of toppings including sprinkles, gummy bears, m&m, oreos and walnuts. We got the chocolate flavor for kids cup. It came with two scoops. The price was comparable to any other B&J store I have been to. Ice cream was so delicious. It was milky and didn't have the frozen texture. The associates were inattentive, but they did their job.

I also got a plethora of chocolates to go, I haven't tried them yet, but they look good.

I was surprised to see that the ingredients included a great deal more than chocolate and hazelnut praline. Actually, I was disappointed because we all know it's difficult to get exquisite chocolate here in the United States, I thought Lake Champlain chocolates were a cut above. I looked at the ingredients after I took a bite of the chocolate with hazelnut praline filling because it did not taste right; it tasted like it had other stuff in it besides high quality chocolate and hazelnut praline filling. I looked at the label and sure enough it has a LOT of other stuff in it that should not be in it. I took a photograph of the front and back of the labels but I don't know if I'll be able to upload it. Before you buy, if you are a purist like me, I recommend you read the labels. At least I can tell you that the ingredients included wheat, soy beans, peanuts, and other things that really shouldn't have been included. I am soooooooooo disappointed. Unfortunately, I shall not be buying any Lake Champlain chocolates anymore because I want to buy the real thing. I don't want to buy American corporate reductionist products that just don't measure up. I am actually very sad ...
