Red Hen Baking
60 Main St, Stowe, VT
Crema's Take
“This beloved Stowe bakery fills the morning air with the aroma of genuinely exceptional pastries, particularly their flaky croissants that locals and travelers alike rave about—the breakfast croissant with quality ham is a standout. Beyond the pastries, Red Hen sources meats a cut above typical café fare and crafts everything with real care, making it feel less like a quick grab and more like stepping into a proper neighborhood gathering spot where the baking is taken seriously. The warm welcome and kind staff make it the kind of place that justifies a detour whether you're heading to Montreal or just exploring Vermont.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
