Little Rooster Café

We went for lunch today. Had the wonderful sweet potato chili and a side salad. My wife had the spinach salad with walnuts, eggs, an abundance of bacon, and eggs. Oh, the carrot ginger coconut soup was outstanding. Service was great and we will come back for breakfast next time! Thank you!!

I went here yesterday (Sunday morning) right at 7:30 am when they opened because I needed a quick breakfast before I left town for a road trip. I wound up lingering longer than anticipated but I don't regret the delay! A surprising number of customers showed up at opening (always a good sign!), the atmosphere was serene with some light music in the background. The place is as neat as a pin. The service was impeccable, the food - wow - it was outstanding. I had scrambled eggs, crisp bacon, cheesy hash brown, and a grilled English muffin and coffee so good I had to have a second cup. All the food was prepared thoughtfully and I had plenty to eat at this great local restaurant. When I come back to visit my cousin in Pawlet, I'll definitely stop here for a meal again!

Very good place for breakfast. A bit of a wait because it’s a busy small restaurant but the service and food make up for the wait. I would recommend this place.

Loved this place! It’s definitely worth the wait. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Food and service has always been excellent. My family has been dining with them since they first opened many many years ago. Love the food, love the owner/chef, love the staff.

I’m am writing this review to warn others of blatant discrimination,and violation of the American Disabilities Act (ADA) today 5/7/2023.
At about 10 am I visited the little rooster cafe to enjoy some breakfast with my close friend, along with us I brought my service animal “Lupita” and Australian shepherd specifically trained to assist me with my disabilities. The offender was a woman named Jackie (or so I’m told) she came up to us right away and even though my service dog was sitting , and clearly labeled with a vest “service dog” she approached my dog without asking, my animal as trained backed away from her, she then proceeded to proclaim that she did not believe that she was a service animal, several times.
While restaurants are within their right to have employee ask (a) is this a service animal? And
(b) what specific task is she trained to do?
This woman(Jackie) did not ask me those questions at all. She came over to us and without consent proceeded to perform her own “testing” to determine if she believed Lupita was indeed a service animal.
I assured her that she is a service animal registered with the ADA, and the Department of Transportation (DOT) and I carry with me all the necessary documentation to prove this. She then continued rudely on, that she would “let us stay this time”, and scolded that if my service dog “makes a sound, barks or anything” we would be “outa there” “kicked out” . This treatment is completely inexcusable, and a violation of my rights.
She never asked the questions she is legally allowed to ask, and this experience made for a completely awkward, and unpleasant breakfast with my friend. And of course my service dog was on top notch behavior. Laying by my side, alert and completely quiet the entire time as she is trained to do, on planes, trains and cars, and yes restaurants too.

My husband LOVES corned beef hash and said this was the best he has ever eaten. I had the steak sandwich and it was cooked perfectly.

Food was delicious, and the atmosphere was very homey. Staff was attentive and pleasant. Wait time can get a bit long on weekends.

The food was amazing. It’s a small dining area so make sure you come at decent times. The staff was very friendly and timely with service as well.

Excellent. The service was great and the food arrived quickly. My wife got an artichoke salad and loved it. I got the corn beef hash and a side pancake. The hash has a great flavor and is unique. Pancake was excellent. Very good all the way around.
