Reviews for August First in Burlington, VT
August first is a staple bakery in Burlington. The building is cozy, and improved by the fact that they dont allow laptops. They... make great bread, delicious pastries, and apparently also an excellent italian sandwich. I got the Don, on their house focacciabread? SO GOOD! A hefty sandwich, but at 17$ id expect nothing less. Read more
Excellent little local bakery and breakfast shop! We ordered a biscuit and the Eat the East breakfast sandwich with tofu... instead of egg and impossible sausage. Both things were delicious! The biscuit came with maple butter and a local fruit jamwhich paired wonderfully. The sandwich was a very heavy breakfast and I was happy to share. The flavors were fresh and reallycomplemented the sausage and tofu. Highly recommend trying this restaurant if you're in the area! Locals lined up 10 deepbefore they even opened the door, that's how you know this place rocks! Read more
We stopped here for brunch. There was a line that moved quickly, but they were out of the polenta that I wanted. I ended up... getting a Day Maker (?) And hubby got pulled pork and egg sandwich. Mine was just okay and he liked his except the pork was toofatty. The place was really busy, but not sure we would come back. The mocha coffee we had was the best coffee we've had on thistrip.

The maple biscuits are to DIE for and I recommend to all on a weekly basis! Nice lighting and decent seating all around. Line is... kind of in the middle of the place and pick-up counter is often a squeeze of a fit. Still, good breakfast sandwiches, lattes,and salads! Read more
Upon walking into this place, I got a warm and relaxed feeling from the the layout of the cafe. The large garage doors opening... up to the outside makes it feel like a true gathering place for the community. I ordered a breakfast sandwich and felt that theportion size did not match the price. The bun also reminded me of the same type of bun I would get on a McDonald?s sandwich. Ialso got some drip coffee to go. If you?re looking for a fresh brew I would recommend checking out an actual coffee shop. Thereare plenty around burlington. Overall, this place does deliver on a fresh, local bakery experience.

Love the laptoplessness! Only critique is portion size - that avo toast was WAY too big, the bread was unpalatably thick. The... flavours were delicious, service was fast and the staff very kind. Also would be great to have physical plates for food orderedon location, esp bc it was so messy to eat. Read more
August First is the perfect breakfast spot in Burlington if you?re looking for a chill vibe and excellent food and service. The... avocado toast is out of this world. So much avocado, topped with pickled onions and everything bagel seasoning. I appreciate thesignage to not use laptops was the best remainder to be present in the moment. Don?t forget to buy some pastries on your wayout! Read more
