Good Eats: SMC Area

Not to say the dining hall on campus is the only option and that it's easily accessible, sometimes you might want to get off campus with friends to get a bite to eat! Usually my friends and I will do the occasional brunch (Alliot brunch is always a weekend highlight though!) or to hangout together before heading home for break. Between Winooski and Burlington there are so many good restaurants within a short mile radius of campus! Some of these places you absolutely have to try out because they all have different styles of food and have something for everyone! For the Saint Mike's area, here are some suggestions:

Our House Bistro - Winooski Circle

Our House fits the bill for "twisted comfort food" as it has some of the best mac and cheese around.
There is a lot to the menu besides just staple comfort foods as they put a twist on classic favorites. My personal favorite is the hamburger mac and cheese...heaven.

Tiny Thai - Winooski Circle

Another Winooski Circle favorite is Tiny Thai which has great offers for a solid amount of food. If you like Thai food or are looking to try it this is absolutely the place to go! There are a bunch of other restaurants in the Winooski Circle such as Sneakers and Misery Loves Company, so if you get the chance pop around to them because they are all a hit!

Athen's Diner - Colchester, VT

I went to Athen's Diner for the first time this year, and why I haven't gone before is a bit beyond me. It is a awesome local spot and their breakfast is hard to beat, If you love a good Sunday brunch out, this is the place to go. I recommend the skillets because they are essentially perfection, in a breakfast meal.

Sweetwaters - Burlington, VT

Jumping from breakfast to dinner, if you are looking for a good dinner spot to splurge a little this is a great place to check out. It is reasonably priced and has awesome food! There is a little something for everyone and they have a great atmosphere in the restaurant from the inside area to the patio outside. I would absolutely check out their apps, when I went I split a few different options and it was super yummy!

American Flatbread - Burlington, VT

This is a chain restaurant but if you are looking for a good pizza place, this is an awesome spot. I have gone multiple times over my time here at Saint Mike's and it is always a good group favorite. They have a variety of different pizza's and also offers brunch. And who doesn't love a good pizza?
