The Best Coffee Shops in Burlington, Vermont | Eater Montreal

"This specialty roaster, retail boutique and espresso bar in Burlington’s South End Arts District has been Burlington’s mecca for coffee connoisseurs since it opened in 2014. Both professionals and amateurs head to this inviting space to learn and sip amongst the coffee sacks. It’s also safe to say that Brio has been an impetus for Burlington’s booming coffee scene, providing coffee to many esteemed restaurants and cafés in town including Nomad, Monarch & the Milkweed, Misery Loves Company, and Scout & Company. Under husband-and-wife team Magdelena and Nate Van Dusen, Brio sources beans seasonally from small farms. Stop by their location at the Soda Plant on Fridays at noon for a weekly tastings and consider shopping for a bag of beans or some fancy brewing equipment." - Heather Platt
