Pauline’s Cafe & Restaurant & Patio

We had a great meal here last night! The drinks were amazing and perfect for our meals. Thanks so much!

Our first time at Pauline's last evening, and what a lovely experience it was! This may have become our new favorite spot in town. The staff were welcoming and attentive as soon as we arrived, despite being close to full capacity. We started with some drinks, the fresh lemonade was delicious (thank you to our waitress for kindly recommending), and the bread that was served shortly after was warm and crisp. The filet mignon was incredible, well seasoned, well cooked, and beautifully plated. We will definitely be back for more soon!

Our crab cakes, olive plate, caesar salad, French onion soup, Seafood Medley, and burger were outstanding. Sauces were fantastic! I highly recommend this restaurant. Nice touch upon ordering, a plate of brioche and foccacia is delivered to your table complimentary. Service was outstanding on the cool, air conditioned, indoor porch. From the moment we arrived at the bar to our departure, service was impeccable. Great job, Pauline's staff/chef!
We've been back a few times since this post. Need I say more? Outstanding culinary sauces and wonderful attentive staff...thanks Anna!

Love how creative the menu is. There were also pretty good beers on draft. Portions left me satisfied but slightly smaller than the typical American portion for the price. We had shrimp risotto and the pork schnitzel. Both were good, but I was hoping for great. The bananas foster desert was really good. The service was excellent. I would give this place a try again. Definitely a cute date night spot.

Just visiting the area and received a recommendation for Pauline's Cafe. The Pork Schnitzel is fantastic and Mitzie, our waitress, was very attentive and made our visit very enjoyable.

I went to Pauline‘s for the first time tonight with my friend, and it was absolutely delicious! All of the meals that we got were excellent, and Mitzie was so attentive to us. Thank you Mitzie for the amazing service the the chef for all delicious meals. I can’t wait come back!

They were able to squeeze us in! Everyone at our table was happy. The service, quality of the dinner, drinks- perfection. Thank you for making our night, we will absolutely come back soon.

10/10 do NOT recommend. My friend and I traveled to Burlington for a vacation. We decided to check out Paulie’s. Had to wait at the bar as we didn’t make a reservation and was busy, fair. Yet a white couple (and mind you, we are people of color my friend and I) come in with no reservation 10 minutes after us, gets a table almost immediately. We decide to leave and that’s when we were acknowledged. Unless you still love discrimination and supporting it, don’t even bother giving them your time and money. Not even worth the one star

Superlative dining experience. This café may look modest on the outside but is truly a gem, one of the best in New England. The meal I ate not only tasted phenomenal but looked beautiful as well. The attention to detail on plating and flavor really shines here. I had the Risotto with wild foraged mushrooms and it was top notch- not to mention all of the staff were extremely warm, welcoming, and friendly. Highly recommend if you are in Burlington!

Over an hour wait for our apps. Then another 15 min. for our meal, the restaurant was not busy. My burger order came out with cold petrified french fries, and the replaced (almost raw)fries didn't arrive until I finished my meal.
