Everything good — the pastries, the drinks. The spacious industrial setting (a former garage beautifully renovated) with cozy details like a well stocked bookshelf and wooden furniture is really welcoming. Rays of sun coming through the tall windows made the place even prettier.Being incredibly busy when we got there made us almost leave at once, guessing it impossible to find a table for three — but their laptop free policy actually helps with the turnover, and lends the café a different atmosphere, since people actually glance at one another instead of their screens, and converse. All seemed lovingly convivial.What still strikes me most as a memory is the hard working staff, that looked tired but kept on with the efficient service — and catching a glimpse of one of the cooks, sweating and disheveled, made me even more grateful for the food I ate (here and everywhere else, for that matter).Keep up with the good work, you have a wonderful place there!

Was asked by the staff to put away my laptop while eating my lunch! Apparently they don't allow laptops. Had only been there five minutes and was still eating. Wonder if one is allowed to read a book, or if they don't like people visiting solo? Go figure. Also, no wifi.

The "A Laptop Free Establishment" is an elitist, hippie, ridiculous, out-of-date and snobby policy. Imagine how much longer people would sit and consume if they weren't shamed for being technologically engaged, and instead forced to eat and rush out! Aside from that silly sign, which we simply ignored, they have great bread and sandwiches! Cookies for dessert are a must...

Came for the food. Stayed for the vibes. Delicious, healthy ingredients prepared on the premises for fun and inspired dishes. Nearly everything can be made vegan! The huge open space is warm, bright, and inviting. No laptops allowed!

Watch what you say in here. If one of their girls imagines you said something not to her liking, they will tell you to leave, leaving your paid for lunch behind. Such was my experience. Be on your guard. Suggest you say only , no mam, yes mam, thank you mam. And don t raise your voice while speaking to a friend, as eyes maybe upon you. And so their is no source of embarrassment set upon you, I say, may the good lord be with you, and keep you safe.

Top of the heap for local bakeries & eateries. Famous for the 'no laptop' policy, which keeps the restaurant quiet and social (but quaintly antiquated given the popularity of cell phones!). Staff is friendly & fast, and the Maple Scones are like a Noir villian: seductive & deadly (to your diet!). Breakfast and lunch sandwiches, amazing breads and a good coffee selection are worth the visit. Great for tourists, business visitors and locals due to the downtown, walk-friendly location. One of my favorites! Very highly recommended!!

Always a treat. This neighborhood cafe has a great assortment of delicious baked treats, and hearty lunches and breakfasts, with lots of veggies options. Their no-computers policy creates a very social and refreshing environment. I always run into friends and colleagues that I know from across Burlington, and even the state. Friendly owners and staff, too.

We were in town visiting Burlington on vacation, we stopped here on the way out heading home from a recommendation of my daughter's friend....our bacon, egg, cheese croissant was amazing! I would definitely recommend you stop in. I would go back if ever in town.

This is the best coffee/breakfast in Burlington! I am so happy we found this cute cafe. They really have the best coffee and their food is to die for. They have a huge selection of baked goods. Their Maple Biscuit is incredible. I'm sure we will be back again soon!

Food is delicious, however, the staff are really unpleasant, and at $2.50 per donut and $3++ for a piece of bread, you'd expect a bit bigger portion and better service.Only other gripe is pretty much inline with the rest of downtown; they are happy to offer discounts to bikers, but chuckled when I asked if they offered police, firefighters or military a discount. Disgraceful where this towns priorities have gone.

muggins and I would eat breakfast here everyday if we could; it's like einsten's, but a little better better. just kidding, bad joke... i would never turn down a good einstein bagel sandwich, but to even make the comparison is just silly. aug 1 wins 100 to zero.

Amazing spot to get breakfast. Food is delicious and doesn’t take long. Fun atmosphere and the smell of fresh bread being baked next door. I was unlucky enough to be there on a day when their espresso machine decided it didn’t want to cooperate, but I was quite happy with their house drip.
