The Works Café

Very cute atmosphere! I love all the details inside this cafe. We were just passing through town on our way to Maine. My caramel latte had immense flavor. My partner’s carrot mango smoothie was really good too. The bagel sandwiches were just okay. It was a different kind of cheese than Im used to and threw me off.

Delicious food and friendly waitstaff! A wide variety of healthy sandwiches, paninis, and bowls for vegetarians. They have an extensive drink menu with an excellent iced Chai. Our meals were fresh and very tasty. Atmosphere is fun and very hippie Vermont.

🥰 I looooove everything about this cafe... especially the good vibes... from those serving and preparing to those enjoying and consuming the delicious food and beverages. We had the Sunshine Burrito... OUTSTANDING... and grabbed to go 2 yummy almond croissants and the best chocolate chip cookie ever. If we lived closer, we'd be regulars... that's how good and special The Works Cafe is... ENJOY!!

I like that they let you flavor and sweeten your coffee to your taste. Free Wi-Fi is a bonus and ample seating will make me want to come here every time I pass through the Brattleboro area. Refills make the slightly costly coffee cups a better bargain.

Stopped by while traveling through town to get a to go breakfast for a hike . The sunrise grilled burrito is amazing ! The green machine smoothie was delicious and healthy. I try to replicate them both at home but can’t get it quite as good. The staff was hipster and welcoming . Coffee menu was solid. The place had many customers there to work and relax so if you want to dine in you can enjoy and not be rushed . Any place with local foods incorporated into a menu deserves to be checked out !

Update 12/17/2022

I went here for two drinks "tropical sunrise" and "Brain freeze"
The drinks helped settle my stomach and the Tropical sunrise was very good. However the Brain freeze tasted a bit watery and not very sweet.

Other than that I will keep my original 5 stars because the place is clean, food is made practically in front of you and the service is good.

The breakfast sandwich was very good, and larger than I thought, got my monies worth. A great start to the day for people needing a boost.

We go here often. My son loves the BLT. It is consistently really good, fast casual food. Even when there is a line it moves quickly & we get our food faster than I expect. The ingredients are good quality and the staff is nice. Take out order are just as fast & the hours are really convenient.

I've been coming to this location for years, and I'm never disappointed. Everything on the menu is delicious! The staff is always friendly, polite, and helpful when ordering. I always recommended this spot to friends and family traveling to Brattleboro.

I've had the smoked salmon bowl many times before. Today it was literally inedible. The "salmon" looked more like a slimy oyster. I tossed it.
Customer service has also been consistently poor lately.
On a positive note, I did recently order a couple of sandwiches which were absolutely delicious.

After having visited a few times before when service was good, this visit noticeably took a turn. The cashier was not attentive and our order had to be repeated. Upon picking up order where there were several orders on the counter, as I was verifying our order the server barked at me, "everything there in the middle!" Then it turns out one of the orders which was sup to come with chicken did not have chicken and altho it was an Asian style dish, this contained feta cheese. Then again the server/prep obnoxiously yelled at my friend abt getting the chicken. So it was not a good experience.
