Monarch and the Milkweed

We extremely enjoyed our breakfast. I had the waffles with VT maple syrup and strawberry jam. My wife had the whole grain, super fluffy and amazing tasting pancakes. My daughter had the fried chicken sandwich which was sooooo tender and delicious with great fries. My soy milk latte was very good too. The restaurant was very clean and staff were very friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is European bistro-like and the music was soothing and energizing at the same time. This is a fabulous place anytime of the day!

The food here is amazing. Everything is very well executed, and there's some very interesting items as well, such as the savory trout donuts. Bloody Mary is also delicious. My only complaint is that some of the menu items are quite small, and others are very large, but there doesn't seem to be any way to know which is which from the menu alone.

The atmosphere and staff are absolutely lovely. The staff clearly love what they do and are passionate about food & drink. Very knowledgeable. The menu is filled with warm, homey meals & bites that have a mature twist. Their drink menu is extensive and thoughtfully designed. A true treat for cocktail enthusiasts.

The hash was good. But, easily forgettable. The fried egg was underseasoned, and overcooked for my preference. The vegetables still had some bite to them; which, I liked, because, this means they weren't overcooked. The drink was better than the food. The service was good; I think that both servers were trying too hard. Although, their actions seemed natural with the other guests. Although, that may have been because, they knew the other two guests who sat next to us. Those three patrons were very friendly. Overall, the experience was too mechanical. But, I think, our host and servers were very inexperienced.

Great food definitely get the chicken and waffles! Creative small dishes and very clean. If you get the chili get the extra sour cream type sauce on the side. Good CBD/THC treats

Everything about this cafe looks aesthetically pleasing but don't be fooled... Food was mediocre but at very high price points. The breakfast sandwich was the tiniest thing I've ever seen! Service was also extremely slow. Be prepared to wait 5 years when you order or try to get the bill. Our waitress seemed very out of it. She forgot to add our drinks to the bill and we had to kindly remind her to put it back in. Oh wait that was a bad move, there goes another 5 years of my life.

Unique and delicious pastries! Their lemon and cinnamon tart is better than anything I have ever tasted! Really tasty food and pretty good drinks! Plus it feels both cozy and modern at the same time!

I have been a couple of times for brunch. Nice and small cafe. The waffles are the best around Burlington area, probably because of the jam that comes with it. Presentation of dishes is definitely a strong point here as well.
