Catalyst Coffee Bar
10 Lake St Suite 2, Burlington, VT
Crema's Take
“Catalyst Coffee Bar has earned its stellar reputation as Burlington's go-to espresso destination, where the baristas take genuine pride in their craft—some have even attended coffee festivals and lectures to deepen their knowledge. The intimate, cozy atmosphere makes it perfect for lingering over a perfectly pulled cappuccino or trying their creative specialty drinks like the banana bread latte, and its convenient location next to Red House Sweets means you can round out your visit with a quality pastry in one stop. What sets this place apart is the pure, thoughtfully-sourced coffee paired with genuinely kind staff who remember regulars by name, creating that rare feeling of a true neighborhood gathering spot rather than just another coffee shop.”

I finally had the chance to check out this place! I got a cappuccino, and it was great—hot, fresh, and delicious. The atmosphere was nice, and the staff were friendly. Plus, they have indoor seating. While you wait for your drink, you can grab a pastry at Red House Sweet. Overall, it was a good experience!
The coziest spot and best coffee! Love that it's next door to Red House Sweets so I can get a quality pastry and cappuccino with one stop. The baristas are kind and helpful...I'm looking at you Emily! Def recommend!
Near us _ canada border its good to stop while crossing to enjoy cup of cofee and blind with local
While there aren’t as many varieties of coffees or syrups here, the coffee is pure. The baristas take their job seriously, some have gone to lectures on coffee and attended festivals to learn more about the best coffee beans and how to process them for the best flavor. ADORE the baristas here!
A great local place to sit down and enjoy a latte, espresso, tea, or any other variety of the drinks they offer. The banana bread latte was a delight.
