      They do an awesome job of making the classics with vegetarian options, and then kicking it up another notch! Love their veggie eggs Benedict, that's stacked with veggies and veggie sausage, and comes with home fries.
      I'm used to skipping the veggie burger and grilled cheese when I go out to eat, but they change it enough to make it worth getting and extra tasty! The chipotle mayo they have on their home-made veggie burger is awesome, and goes well with their crispy, seasoned fries.
      Can't wait to try more- definitely recommend to vegetarians. They also have gluten-free bread for those that must do without!

      Last stop before leaving Burlington after a great weekend brew fest.
      Had Caprase eggs Benedict with fresh basil and Maine tomato on crispy English muffin and awesome bacon.
      Friends had breakfast burrito , and donut French toast and Granny Smith sausage omelette.
      Fresh and homemade you could tell.
      Great staff and friendly.
      Would go again and would like to see if their lunch is good.

      We stopped in on a mission to try someplace new and were very pleased with the whole experience. The building, both inside and out, isn't much to write home about, but if you ask me, diners weren't meant to look fancy.
      The waitress, Emma, was the nicest little ray of sunshine you could have asked for and have us wonderful recommendations for our breakfast choices and very pleasant conversation.
      Everything was delicious from the coffee and donut to our French toast and omelletes. We will be back to try something new sometime soon!

      Waitresses were beautiful, but SSSSSSLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW. It was Sunday around 11am and it was indeed packed. The freshmade donuts were tight. The Apples and cheese omelet was actually very very good as well. The blueberry pancake was terrible though. Tasted like Bisquick and I swear that was fake maple syrup. IN VERMONT?!??! The damn milk comes in maple flavor. How dare you even purchase, let alone SERVE fake maple.

      Outstanding local diner with great vegetarian options. Worth the wait in line. Veggie Benedict is my favorite. Short walk to Battery Park for an after meal walk,

      Chose this as last meal, while visits Vermont. We got there around 10am on a Sunday. As we were leaving there was a least several people waiting on line, so I would suggest getting there early.

      Our waitress was pleasant and funny. The oj was freshly made. I had a make your own omelette, with fresh cheddar cheese.

      New to me, we grabbed breakfast after a night out in Burlington. The sausage gravy and biscuits were great (hot gravy with big chunks of sausage).

      They also had amazing fresh housemade donuts for $1 which were super.

      A friend had one of the Benedicts which looked great.

      Homey, very casual.

      Great home fries!!! You smell it the moment you get in. The single best thing about the meal! My chicken steak was good, but the sausage gravy was a little goopy and salty. My husband got a burger and he liked it too.

      Fantastic on all fronts. Outstanding service, perfectly prepared food, plenty of character, and gosh darn are their milkshakes good. Everything you could want in a diner.

      We've had the scram-bowl, most of the eggs benedicts, the hungry hipster, and more. Never been disappointed. Not planning on going a week without a visit here for as long as I'm in Burlington.

      Just keep in mind that this isn't the place to get kale pancakes with quinoa fries and tofu. For a 'trendy' breakfast you'd be better off going to Magnolia's.

      Great traditional diner in downtown Burlington. Kids had a single pancake (each) and they were huge and definitely enough! I had the Popeye eggs Benedict which were slightly undercooked (very mildly runny whites) but the sauce was great and the home fries were delish! Wish we had saved room for a freshly made donut!
