Crema's Take

Operating from a beloved cart on Burlington's streets, Urban Retreat Coffee has earned a devoted following for their meticulously crafted espresso drinks and rotating seasonal creations that keep regulars coming back month after month. Owners Lein and Irma have managed to create an unexpectedly warm, welcoming atmosphere from their compact space, consistently delivering drinks with such care and creativity that customers find themselves returning nearly daily. This is the kind of spot where the lines are long for good reason—genuine quality and genuine kindness in every cup.

This is probably the only coffee place I’ll ever go to since everything here is just so good!! They also have sessional drinks that they change out every month or two, so there is always something new to try. The owners are also so friendly and sweet. I’d come here every day if I could!!!

Urban Retreat Coffee Bar is my favourite coffee shop in town! Despite not having their own space they curate the most amazing atmosphere out of their cart and make delicious, creative espresso and tea drinks. I truly come to the Burlington Farmers Market only for their lattes with house made syrups.

Easily the best coffee shop that I've been to in Vermont. My partner and I go nearly everyday and we've never gotten a single bad drink or dud. Lein & Irma are both so incredibly kind and welcoming no matter how hectic or busy it is. Their seasonal drinks always feel uniquely creative and specialized in a way that I don't see at any other cafés. I could gush over this place for hours, we love having them as a Burlington staple ☕

Cutest little cart with coffee. When I went there was not a lot of syrups or flavors left because I went close to close. Would recommend getting there earlier. But, aside from that, it was really good. The latte was delicious. Expensive, but not outrageous, and definitely good quality.

This coffee truck is an absolute gem of a find! I'd always noticed the consistently long lines and walked by, but today I finally decided to see what all the fuss was about – and now I understand completely. Their latte was amazing, and their lemon cookie, yum. This spot is also in an incredibly convenient location, making it the perfect stop between classes for a pick-me-up. Plus, their menu is super customizable with a great selection of lattes, teas, and cookies. And to top it all off, the people working there were so friendly and welcoming. Hands down, if you're in the UVM/Burlington area, this coffee truck is an absolute must-try
