Reviews for ArtsRiot in Burlington, VT
Unique place. Artsy funky vibe. They have artsy movies, local bands and artists, comedy nights, and even murder mystery dinners... (def trying one). Good drinks (they can their own line of cocktails) . Bit hit or miss with food. On Saturdays in the summerthey have live music and food on covered deck. Great place to cool off after pine street market. Looks like now that things arenormalizing there'll be consistent hours and events. Really happy this place exists. Read more
Since new ownership, the food menu isn't what it once used to be. Also - beer and drink prices have gone up by quite a bit.... $8.75 for Fiddlehead. When I went to pay, I noticed that that price didnt include tax! Almost every bar in Burlington includestax on their drink prices. That alone is backwards. 3/5 is my rating. Still a great venue, but not as nice as it once was. Read more
The food scene in Burlington has all but died thanks to Covid 19. ArtsRiot is forging ahead and positioning themselves for a... blockbuster summer! Their Kale Benedict stole the show for me at Sunday Brunch. I don?t usually order the home fries but thesewere clearly exceptional. Blackened spice and cooked to perfection. The house made English muffins didn?t disappoint. Theatmosphere was exactly what you would expect in an art?s neighborhood. I will be back to review their canned cocktails! Read more
Food was amazing. We had the fried chicken and the bananas foster French toast. Charming local place where art is a central... theme to the beautiful atmosphere. Games were also a great touch for some camaraderie time. Read more
I've always liked this place, funky with some unusual artwork inside. Service has always been fine. I am lacking a star because... the drink menu was not as creative or inclusive as I had been used to previously. Have gone quite a few times and enjoyed awhiskey cocktail. This menu was different, maybe a summer thing but not as great as I remembered. The drink I had was okay. I'mnot sure if something has changed beside covid and understanding how that affects businesses I get it. Still a funky healthconscious environment. Read more
Comfy warehouse type joint with tall bar tables as well as standard. Food was good with a nice selection of local beers. Music... playing in the second room lounge area that I did not get to visit, but did not distract from the vibe or noise level in themain dining area adjacent the bar. The place looks like it gets slammed by the locals as evidence by the reservations needed andamble wait staff - a sure sign of consistency and enjoyable foods. Read more
As a photographer, this is a great venue to shoot in. They have a nice bird's nest for getting crowd shots and they have a great... space. Their staff is super friendly and I had no problems at the door. As a patron, it's even better. Great drinks, good foodand close to downtown! Read more
I finally got a chance to go to Arts Riot and am just sorry I had waited so long to go. It's a great place; a little quirky... with a lot of interesting design features. The food is great, a fusion of Cuban and Peruvian cooking with special touchesfrom an inspired chef. Check it out! Read more
