    Belgian Waffle Breakfast
    Philip M.

    We stopped in for breakfast. Wow, loved the menu, the food was delicious and service was outstanding. We had the veggie hash, breakfast burrito and Belgian waffle. We also got a single Kahlua challah French toast to try because it looked so good. All were very good, but the hash and burrito were the standouts. We also really liked the coffee, and we were told that it was from Speeder and Earl's Coffee from Burlington. It is a cute little place. We look forward to our next visit.

    We were on the way to Burlington from Montreal so decided to stop a little earlier in Winooskie for lunch. I ordered chicken and waffles from the breakfast menu with a glass of VT apple cider while hubby ordered the Turkey Rachel Melt and a maple milkshake. Food was good and came out quick but I did feel really rushed. Partly it was because we had just spent 4 nights in Montreal where people enjoyed their meals at a leisurely pace. However, to be asked whether we needed a box just half an hour after we got seated and 10 minutes after we got our food, just because we put our fork down for a second to chew our food seemed excessive especially since there was no one waiting.

    Tucked in a cozy area here in Winooski is a cute bistro. The vibe gave calm and chill for breakfast. It was just *chef's kiss* I started off with the Vermont apple cider mimosa and ordered a ginger bread waffle with lemon compote, scrambled eggs and maple sausage called the jumpstart #3. Everything tasted so good. The lemon compote with gingerbread gave an amazing contrast in flavor sweet and tangy. My friend had the California eggs Benedict . Looking out the window while having breakfast was really great.

    Sneakers Bistro is my go-to brunch place in the area. It's walkable, and there's enough street parking nearby. The one thing I don't love is that you can't make reservations. I saw another review that said sneakers "can't handle the traffic" and this is true. Definitely not the place to be at 1130am on a weekend. If you're going on a high traffic day, arrive at open. The eggs Benedict here are really fantastic and the primary reason I love it here. But some other great reasons are the drinks; the coffee drinks are decadent, they offer vegetarian and dairy free options for almost everything, and the brunch cocktails are creative and fun. It's a fantastic location for a casual brunch gathering. The staff here are also really lovely. So friendly, and always offered my dog a bowl of whipped cream and water. It's well lit and the portions are large. It's important to note that they are not diligent about cross-contamination. Celiacs and people with severe allergies be aware of this.

    Sneakers Classic Eggs Benedict (eggs were boiled not poached)

    I was looking forward to this place but came out very disappointed. From the quality of the food to the service, I wouldn't recommend it. We ordered the benedicts but the eggs were basically hard boiled. They definitely don't know how to poach eggs. The service was awful. Our waitress was uninterested and we had to call her to the table to even refill the coffee, something when eating at a diner should be automatic. Best part of breakfast were the home fries. The rest was forgettable. Street parking but you have to pay $1 hour.

    Visit Date: Aug. 11, 2024 I met with a friend and he had suggest we go to Sneakers - naturally I gave it a shot since I'm from out of town. Overall, my experience was okay. It was great to have been seated right away on a busy Sunday brunch rush but that came with its shortcomings as we realized our server was still frantically busy. Which led to delays in our meal along with forgetting certain requests we've had. But that's not why I rated this place only a 3/5 stars as I understood the nature of being busy. The reason why Sneakers received a 3 out of 5 was because of the lackluster flavors from the Cowboy Hash and side of pancake I opted for instead of toast. I enjoy a great hash combo but the Cowboy was a bit too bland to the point that adding hot sauce and more pepper was needed to elevate its taste. The pancake was okay at best as well - a bit too dry and needed to be supplemented by more butter/syrup than I would've liked. However, the ambiance of the place was super nice, it was cute, decor on the walls, staff, and patrons, were all pleasant. It really was just the food this time around, unfortunately. I may give it another go in the future though!

    Food here is delicious! And the homemade chai is one of the best I have EVER had. My boyfriend's eggs Benedict was his favorite he's ever had too. The upstairs view of Winooski is great, and our server was super kind when I asked them about how the chai was made there. Absolutely wonderful, and the prices are not too bad either ($50 with tip for two people's meals and drinks).

    Home fries

    I went today for brunch , We had put our name on the online wait-list while we were still at home, it gave us the wait times so we could calculate when we needed to leave the house , a soon as we got there our table was ready , I'm very happy with the system. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. The ambiance was comfortable , we could hear ourselves talking,so it wasn't overly noisey. I ordered the lemon poppy seed waffle with a blueberry sauce (it was hidden underneath the waffle) I couldn't taste the lemon poppy flavor, the blueberry compote was good. I just wished that they had cooked the waffle abit longer as it was a bit soggy. The homefries were large pieces but tasted a bit mealy and a little under cooked, There wasn't any seasoning , potatoes need seasoning while cooking , maybe a bit of pepperika , I would have loved the option of onions and peppered to add , I don't believe the potatoes were cooked on the grill but maybe fried in the fryer just to turn it sightly brown. I miss those greasy crunchy bits. my fellow diners at the table all seem to be enjoying their foods an assortment of lunch or breakfast items. Except for the potatoes

    Special of the day Strawberry Waffles

    The food was phenomenal, I just wouldn't recommend coming on a holiday weekend or a graduation weekend/Monday. It's a lovely small business that can't handle the traffic. You can put your name on a waitlist via their website, but then you have to be diligent about letting them know you've arrived (our young family members were anything but diligent!) Get the pancakes! They were actually better than my own homemade ones! If you're vegan, the hash was soooo tasty! Everything was absolutely delish. Even the coffee!
