Monkey House-our favorite dive bar with shockingly good pizza by the slice, local beer on draft, and a free pool table.
A board game cafe with comfort foods, specialty milkshakes, and local drafts/cans and 700+ board games to play.
A semi-upscale restaurant overlooking the Winooski River, a great place for a nice meal out. Reservations recommended.
A fun axe throwing place, enough said.
A sticky-floor dive bar with excellent service and karaoke.
A rail trail along Lake Champlain for those who want to bike, walk, run, etc. The bike path starts in downtown Burlington and stretches to the Colchester Causeway. You can also jump on at the Colchester Causeway which we highly recommend, it is absolutely gorgeous!
Pub food with lots of vegetarian options!
A walkable, pedestrian-only outdoor mall with local shops and restaurants
There are a number of great pizza places in the Burlington area. Some top recommendations though are Folino's, Pizza 44, Pizzeria Verita, and American Flatbread.
A great spot near the waterfront to get a creemee (or sandwich or snack) and sit on a large deck overlooking the lake.
One of our favorite taco places. Reservations recommended. Indoor and outdoor seating available in the summer.
