The items are unique, interesting, and high quality. There are kitchen gadgets, bar cart fixings, home decor items, greeting cards, jewelry...the list goes on.

Jamie's on Main is a quaint little deli on the second floor (street level) serving sandwiches and soups. A nice spot to grab a quick bite. Bear Pond Books has an extensive children's section, and recent releases for adults. They also have a large Vermont-themed section featuring books about the Green Mountain State. The Stowe Mercantile on the first floor features an extensive variety of jams and condiments, with free samples available all day for tasting. If you're looking for a cozy Vermont sweatshirt, you'll find one here amidst the clothing and apparel section. There are plenty of Vermont gifts and knick-knacks to buy for yourself or friends. As with most of the shops in the area, items are a little on the pricey side. The Old Depot is the large red building located next to the Green Mountain Inn.

Unfortunately, we had a poor experience tonight and won't be returning. We ordered burritos - and either they scraped the bottom of the rice or it was sitting out too long because it had dried out to the level of becoming stone-hard. They offered to make us a replacement, which we appreciated, but then took 20 minutes to do so. Understandable if they had to prepare a fresh batch of rice. After that though, we kept waiting for our check for 15 more minutes with no server in sight. We finally got up and checked out at the bar. After paying $54 for a meal we really were disappointed in, we feel we really have no reason to return sadly. The flavors seemed good, if only they could've cared about the execution details and customer service. I wish I could've tried the falafel burger and nachos - both sound good.

We love our new furniture--but the customer service experience was disappointing…read more My husband and I were excited to purchase a new bedroom set. After comparing prices, we found that Burlington Furniture was quoting us $2,000 more than a California company, even with shipping and assembly included. Still, we wanted to support a local business, so we returned to Burlington Furniture, and they agreed to match the competitor's price. We were given an estimated delivery date of 4/30. When we followed up, we were surprised to hear that our furniture wouldn't arrive for nearly two more months. We understand that delays happen, but we were frustrated by the lack of communication. I called the manager to get clarity and was told that the employee who gave us that update was no longer with the company. She promised to follow up--which she did--but she didn't provide a new delivery timeline. Instead, she told us the order wasn't actually delayed and that deliveries typically arrive two weeks after the estimated date. It's unclear why the original estimate wouldn't account for that window, and what's worse, I never heard back from the manager again. Ultimately, the delivery company brought our furniture just five days after the estimated date, which we appreciated--but the poor communication and lack of accountability from Burlington Furniture left a bad impression. We're happy with the product, but extremely disappointed in the service. Sadly, this experience has cost Burlington Furniture a customer.
