Willow's
71 South Union St, Burlington, VT
Crema's Take
“This Burlington bagel shop roasts excellent, fairly-priced coffee that pairs beautifully with their house-made bagels, including standout gluten-free and vegan options that actually have real substance. The Indy sandwich and full breakfast menu draw regulars who appreciate quality over speed, though you'll want to arrive with patience since freshness clearly takes priority over quick service. It's a warm, family-friendly gathering spot perfect for lingering over coffee, though seating can be tight on busy mornings.”

The coffee was excellent and well priced. The Bagels were ok. The female staff could be more friendly. No need to have an attitude on early morning of a beautiful Sunday!
One of the best bagel places I’ve ever been to. The Indy is an amazing sandwich. The staff is great and the coffee is tasty too. Only downside is that there isn’t a lot of indoor seating. I highly recommend this place.
I was overall super happy and impressed with my experience at Willow's bagels. Although it took ~30 minutes to get our bagels, they were super good quality and tasted amazing. I would much rather wait a long time and get a good bagel than wait 10 minutes for a sloppy one. Service was good. It was super chaotic in there, and super busy, but obviously that is not their fault. The atmosphere inside was very intense and crowded. It was so busy inside, and it felt like there was nowhere to stand. Though, for the taste and price of the bagel and coffee, I will most definitely be back.
Seriously one of the best gluten free bagels I have had! Most of them are usually dry and not filling, but Willow's makes them in house and they're so fresh and actually have substance! I had it with vegan cream cheese and it was perfectly toasted. I ordered online and then let them know at the counter when I was there. Highly recommend!
I am in love with this spot! My husband and I went there every morning for breakfast when I was in town visiting my grandmother. They have so many awesome vegan breakfast options. We had a lot of fun creating new sandwiches every day. Thanks Willows!!
