OUR NEW CAFÉ IS OPEN EVERY DAY.
MONDAY-SATURDAY WE OPEN AT 7:00 AM ON SUNDAYS WE'RE HERE FROM 8:00 TO 5:00
We're easy to find... just a few hundred yards east of exit 9
off of I89. We're right on route 2 on the south side of the road. Some of
the wonderful things you'll find when you stop by are:
Breads (of course!)
Our entire line is available here every day, as well
as a daily fruited bread not available anywhere else!
Pastries
You may know us for our breads, but since we opened the café last
winter Jeremy, Hannah, and Brad have been creating an assortment of
stunning, delectable goodies. Our quality standards are just as high for
these as they are for our breads. Where else can you find a croissant or
brioche made with Organic flour and Vermont Butter and Cheese butter? And it doesn't end there. Hannah has just begun making
Danish pastry which will feature a rotating assortment of toppings, many of
them locally-sourced. Currently, she's whipped up a lemon topping with
pistachios (with organic fruit and nuts). The Pain au Chocolate features
organic, fair trade (and delicious) chocolate; the ham and cheese croissant
is filled with pastured-raised ham and Blythedale Farm gruyere. We adhere
to the same unheard of standards for our cookies, scones, brioche tarts and
sticky buns. We challenge you to find another bakery with pastries of this
quality with nothing to hide on their ingredient list!
Sandwiches at Red Hen Café! Our menu is expanding and we are have new
options for your lunch menu. As a supplement to our soup and pastries, we
now have sandwiches and salads. Fresh ingredients, Vermont products, and
our own organic bread, fresh from the oven.
A sample of what you will find:
- goat cheese, watercress and kosher salt on Waitsfield Common
- egg salad with fresh herbs & lettuce on 100% Whole Wheat
- thinly sliced ham, grainy mustard, VT cheddar & lettuce on baguette
- smoked salmon, capers, red onion & lettuce on Sprouternickel
- VT cheddar, sliced apples and chutney on Fat Tire
- thinly sliced salami, gruyere, grainy mustard & lettuce on baguette
Other lunch items
Every day we feature two varieties (one meat and one
vegetarian) of soup from Sugar Snap in Burlington. The crew at Sugar Snap
adhere to the same quality standards that we do for our baked goods. Many
of the ingredients come fresh from their farm and, as with our own products,
the list of ingredients has nothing to hide, which is all too rare these
days. Most importantly, all of their soups will knock your socks off.
Other items
As the months go by, we will be adding more and more items to
take home. Currently, some of these items include Red Hen t-shirts and
hats, a selection of fine wines, local cheeses, and Laughing Moon Chocolates.
We hope to see you soon!
