North Cove Coffee In Burl - gton

I should have come in years ago. Due to the proximity to the jewelry store, I assumed North Cove would be expensive and snobby, but this is a great lesson in never judging a book by the cover of the book beside it! When we walked in, I was surprised to see lots of warm colors, with soothing lights. The subtle mix of decor (hanging coil bulbs and inset LEDs) really works to give it a classy yet comfortable ambiance. Our drinks were cheap but tasty, and I was excited to learn they have white coffee! The chicken pesto panini came out a little black on the crust, but the flavor made up for it. The chicken pesto melts in your mouth, the chicken isn't dry and the pesto isn't overwhelming. It's not so packed that it's spilling, but when you bite into it, it's so flavorful and full that it feels like a a whole chicken. My only real negative is that it's quiet and lifeless, at least during my visit. Only 2 other customers were here. Maybe it's a slow day, but I'd love to see more excitement here. Even a bit of background music would be good. All in all, will visit again soon!

Update: This coffee shop has gone out of business. The shop is empty.

Staff was very nice. But latte was bitter and scone was ??? At first good flavor but once chewed doughy just odd texture. Store was clean had good choice of seating tables or comfy chairs.

Beautiful setting with water sculpture and local artists work displayed. Great cappacino and best tasting blueberry muffins

Great coffee shop, staff is super helpful and friendly. Amazing coffee
