Cafe

Whether it’s coffee and a pastry or full breakfast in the morning; soup, salad and a sandwich for lunch; or picking up a loaf of bread, some local cheese, and your favorite beverage for your evening, we’ve got you covered!

As of May 1st, 2026, our cafe will relocate to 60 Main Street in Montpelier’s historic downtown.

Pastries

Like our breads, Red Hen pastries are made from simple, uncomplicated ingredients—an approach that emphasizes the textures and flavors that come from proper fermentation and handling from mixing bowl to oven.

Represent Red Hen

Next time you order online, add some Red Hen merch to your order and pick it up in the cafe! You can order on the same page where you place your food order and we'll have it ready for you when you arrive!
