I want to like S&E, I really do. In fact, I used to like them. And that's the reason they're getting tfhat second star from me. I haven't been here in a long long time. The major change was there seemed to be more seating in the coffee shop. But it still has that grungy dive-y feel to it. For some reason, the place just reminds me of my grandma's house--old, drafty. Well, let's not judge books by their covers, shall we? So, I start reading over their extensive menu, and realize okay, here I am at a coffee shop that has some specialty drinks. Usually, I'd get an Americano. Extra shot. Iced, if I'm feeling a little crazy. Today, I must have taken my extra crazy pills because I ordered an iced "Cherry Bomb". The gals behind the counter were friendly enough, and even thanked me for my tip. I liked that. The one taking my order even asked me what kind of milk I wanted when I didn't specify (Huh. When I forget to tell them at Starbucks if I'm getting a latte, they just assume I want whole milk. I don't ever want whole milk...but that's another story). So far, so good. Coffee smells good. Customers are friendly. It's not busy. I get my coffee and hell, I've been exercising, I'll get a cinnamon roll too...and go over to the counter to get lids and a straw. ( I was a little peeved they filled the cup RIGHT up to the brim and didn't put a lid on it. Of course I spilled. Good thing I got it iced today, right? I hope they don't do that with hot coffee!). Well, the lids are just a bit hard to access for smaller people but I did manage, after I spilled coffee all over the counter. And no napkins...of course. And it's only 10 am. I felt bad for leaving a mess, but the girls behind the counter were a little busy, and the counter was clearly in need of some TLC from other customers leaving their little messes too. Scratch that, it was in need of a lot of TLC. When I finally tasted my coffee in my pastry I noticed two things...1) the pastry tasted like it had been sitting a good long while and also that it was made by Pillsbury. With so many other coffee shops with stellar baked goods, I'm not sure how they get by with this. 2) the coffee tasted off. Like...a hint of garlic or onion off. Not what I expected from my cherry bomb. Anyways, their regular coffee is definitely good, but I can buy it at the store and skip going down to their Pine St location.

What are you thinking Speeder and Earl!? I can't believe what you did to me. My wife, son and I decided to take a stroll to Speeder and Earls. I walked in and ordered a cup of coffee. There were a large variety to choose from, I said to the nice lady behind the counter that I'd just like the house special. She let me know that there wasn't one that was called the 'special.' Okay I am fine with this, but then she told me that with the one cup that she handed to me, I could try as much coffee as I wanted. I could have every flavor if I'd like. Well, of course I had to have some of every flavor. They were all good and so, now I'm hyped up on joe! I really like the atmosphere. I was talking to someone I met who asked me where I lived. I told her and she replied, "ohhh.... you're by the best Speeder and Earls!" Well, it the only one I've been to, so I suppose I cannot talk to that. But, it would seem based on one person whose name I cannot remember, that this one is the best!

Speeder & Earl's has totally saved my butt this semester. $2.50 gets you a bottomless mug of coffee plus tip, and so long as you're courteous about how much space you take up, you can stay for as long as that chapter takes to read. Coffee flavors on "tap" change daily, and I've enjoyed every flavored coffee/specialty drink I've ordered. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, great study space/great place to meet folks for coffee. I wish a little that they stayed open later on weekends, but since customers tend to peter out around 4 or so, I can't legitimately expect them to be open later than 5. Five stars.

I love coming here! It's cheap (price) coffee and a super friendly staff. The atmosphere makes for a great meeting space (not a huge group). For some reason, this place is way better than the Church Street locations. I enjoy their Maple Lattes and skinny drinks!

Best iced coffee in town! I always ALWAYS go in there with the intention of trying something new and exciting because they have so many delicious sounding concoctions and yet I never stray away from my top two- iced mocha or iced earl grey tea. Both are so delicious and such a treat! The prices aren't bad but sadly, I've become okay with spending $3-5 dollars on a cuppa (don't judge, you gotta treat yo'self). There's always really awesome 90s alternative playing, which is my thing, and the staff is friendly. I *do* have to say that I've never tried their pastries because they don't look super appealing but there are plenty of options in town for a yummy croissant. This is my go-to place for a great cup of coffee that saves me from the 3pm slump.

It was a rather cold day so I decided that I would afford a little warm treat for myself. I head into the coffee shop and immediately like the laid back grungy atmosphere. Music is not too loud and there's free wifi. There's not too many customers on a Wednesday afternoon either. I order a hot cocoa, and the cashier asks me what kind of milk I'd like. I choose skim milk. Then I choose a chocolate croissant, and then I'm informed that it ran out. And then I take a good look at the measly pastries I have left, nothing looks that appealing. I understand that no one really gets breakfast at 3pm but would it hurt to have stocked up on more pastries? I choose a cinnamon bun. The texture is flaky instead of doughy, so I already am annoyed by the amount of crumbs I got on my small plate. And it tastes like wood chips until I get into the middle of the bun, and then it's like a diabetic punch in the mouth. It's too sweet. I leave the bun unfinished, and that's the first time I've ever put down a sweet of any kind. But I was seriously dreading the next bite. However, I have to give credit for their hot cocoa. The cream on top was lovely, I enjoyed the drink.

It's always fun to try out the local coffee stops when you're an out-of-town visitor, especially in a place as quirky and unique as Burlington. It gives you a nice feel for the local culture and is a great way to get in on what people are in to doing for fun in the area. Speeder & Earl's was laid-back, chill, and it immediately appeared as though the employees were having a good time and were passionate about coffees and teas. Great signs! This shop has all the requisite local Vermont coffee shop goods: coffees and teas by the pound, several different milk/non-dairy choices, passionately-brewed coffees and well-tamped espressos, plus delicious local treats and baked goods. Hubby and I shared a cinnamon roll and it was sooooo good! I also loved my Peppermint Freeze Latte and the rest of my group of friends enjoyed their green teas, Mocha Latte, and Double Espresso. I liked that their cups are compostable/recyclable...so Vermont. Prices were fair, and definitely less than the gouging I've sadly become "alright" with due to my Starbucks addition back home. I was spoiled by Speeder & Earl's and the other local shops in VT!

Rise and shine folks. It's going to be a beautiful Friday! Still a little tired? No problem- visit these guys and you will have your pick me up in no time! Though busy, the service is quick and the staff friendly. Join them for you morning coffee or tea and spend the rest of your day on the right foot.

Love their coffee, some of the strongest I've ever had. BUT, when sitting in the back corner near the swinging doors, there are more flies than a cow farm. It's seriously ridiculously annoying. Wish they would get a fly zapper or something. It takes away from the atmosphere and experience and good coffee.

Nicky makes the best coffee! There is plenty of parking, seating and there is always great music playing.

We have been getting coffee here for the past 16 or 17 years, long before the first Starbucks came to Burlington and changed the coffee landscape forever. But Speeder & Earl's continues to be one of my favorite haunts in B-town, along with the dark and sightly mysterious Muddy Waters and the often-too-crowded Uncommon Grounds. Speeder and Earl's roast their beans on site, which is quite a pleasant sensory experience. The staff is always perfectly chill; the coffee is fresh and strong; the place is (relatively) clean; it's quite sunny and friendly and there's almost always a seat. I am not a fan of rich pastries or double mocha lattes with almond milk (whatever that is); I just enjoy a cup of locally-roasted hot and strong super-fresh brewed coffee, and that's what you will always get here. Fair prices too: $1.40 for small, $1.70 medium, and up. Hail S&E !

Love this place! Amazing coffee blends, always have an organic option too! Cozy place to sit and enjoy your drink! You can also purchase coffee by the pound. The do have some snacks if you need something little in your tummy!

This Speeder & Earl's is not quite as centrally located as the one on Church Street, and you would think that might make it feel smaller, but it actually feels roomier. The building is airy and bright, with high ceilings, and the space is the perfect size, I think. They don't try to cram too many tables in, but there's a decent amount of seating anyway. The drinks are fantastic. I got a butterscotch latte (macchiatto, although it wasn't noted as such), because the woman in front of me got one and it smelled so good. The barista made my drink expertly, which is a rarity among indies and small chains. She made a little swirl with the espresso, Seattle style. Then I tasted it and hot damn, it was fine. Friendly, skilled service and great drinks.

One of my favorite stops while in Burlington! Eclectic friendly place, in the offbeat Pine St. biz district. They have some of the best coffee outside of Seattle! I always buy a lb. or 2 of beans for myself or family/friends. Also love the free mug fill-up when u purchase beans. Great local place, visit if you're in the area.
(5)Nathan H.
Great place to grab coffee - the staff is nice and the product is excellent. I'm not a huge fan of the eclectic, haphazard decor and the drafty doorways, so I rarely linger there for long. More than once I've thought tables were sticky/not clean. But it's a beloved institution and they're doing plenty right - I'll keep going there.

Decent coffee; Questionable service. Went in for a cup about 45 min prior to closing one day. Virtually all of the self-service carafes were empty, and those with any coffee were lukewarm to ice-cold. When this was mentioned to the barista (by multiple customers, no less), she replied that they were closing soon, and she wasn't planning to make any more coffee this late in the day...unacceptable. As a customer who has already paid for a cup of hot coffee, I expect to be supplied with just that, up until the establishment locks its doors. How hard is it to brew a pot of hot coffee for paying customers on a cold day? I don't think I'll be frequenting this place.

Speeder and Earl's Pine Street store is my favorite place in town to have coffee and get an hour or two of work done. The coffee drinks are delicious, and flawlessly-made by the expert and friendly baristas. The store has a spacious feel to it, with wooden tables, making this place mouse and laptop-friendly, though only about half of the spots have outlets nearby, so if you're bringing your computer, have some battery power ready. And one is not as likely to encounter another customer gabbing loudly on the cellphone as happens all-too-often at other coffee establishments in town. My only complaint is that when it gets busy, unlike other Ma And Pa coffeeshops where Ma and Pa help the baristas, at Speeder and Earl's the owners generally act all aloof and ignore the lines. Not a problem if you're not in a rush to be somewhere.

I must say that my experience here was great. I walked in a half hour before they opened and the curly haired girl served me up anyway. Now that's what I call good customer service. The coffee was good, but could have been stronger. Because of this excellent customer service experience I will return on my next trip to Burlington.

This is the best coffee shop in Burlington. The atmosphere is wonderful and relaxed. Outlets are few and far between if you bring your computer, but I usually just bring a book and wait for an outlet to open up. The free wi-fi is very fast. The coffee itself is terrific. If you visit, make sure to try a 'Clockwork Orange' or a 'Peppermint Freeze'. I always bring a pound of Speeder's home with me so I can enjoy every morning. And the coffee is brewed right in the store, so you know it's fresh. Finally, I have to mention the awesome baristas. Not only will these lovely ladies make you a cup of coffee, but they will also strike up a friendly conversation, unlike some other area coffee shops. So come to Speeder's for coffee and wi-fi but stay for the atmosphere and awesome staff.

Really fantastic coffee. When I sleep I dream of red cups filled with organic Sumatra. This place really hits all the right notes. Service, design, and the best coffee beans in the region. They roast in Vermont and honestly I don't think I've had better coffee since my arrival. Speeder and Earl's coffee beans have an unbearably short existence in my cabinet... never enough.
