Oh, Vermont Sandwich....so close to 5 stars. My wife and I were visiting the area from Detroit and read the great reviews, so stopped for lunch on a Friday afternoon.
The size of the place is surprisingly small, but that was cool. There are only 5-6 tables inside and another 5-6 outdoors. The atmosphere is funky and fun and friendly. Service was prompt and the menu selection was varied and interesting. Prices were reasonable. All great stuff so far.
But then came the food and we gave it only 3-stars. Certainly fresh, but oddly bland. I had the Long Trail. The roast beef was good and veggies fresh, but the horseradish mayo had no kick to it. I also had the clam chowder (nice 1/2 sandwich and soup combo) and it too lacked kick.
I would go there again and try something else, but I certainly wished the food had matched the atmosphere.
