Hobo's Cafe

Very good place for breakfast, food was very delicious, they mixed up my order, but after completing they made my very happy.
I will definitely stop by again.

Many times, side dishes aren’t the main event… BUT my omelette came with a side of smoked beans and I wanted to lick the bowl clean! Great food and nice company in this small but tasty joint.

My GOD this food was good. The sausage gravy was far and way the absolute best I've ever had. I will come back as often as I can manage. It would make a unicorn cry with the beauty of flavor.

The food is SO good. I tried a Hungry Man special and the pancake. I’ve never had such good sausage gravy, and the pancake was perfect. You should definitely stop and eat here if you’re staying here or passing through.

We checked out this reasturant while on vacation. The staff was extremely friendly. The food was legit so good. Everything is homemade. Later in the day we saw the same reasturant staff running a food stand at Colebrook craft fair. They remember us from the morning and we ordered their brisket. It was so good. My boyfriend said it was better than the brisket he had in Texas. This place was one of the most friendliness reasturant I've experienced delicious food.

Delicious food and great service! Highly recommend stopping by for breakfast.

We’ve been coming here for years. The food is always good. The service is fast and friendly. It still has the old “Jennifers” feel. Every time I’m up to camp, I make it a point to come here.

No doubt the beautiful area of Island Pond was a very special place to Native Americans for thousands of years- in rmore recent history it was special to those who rode the rails from Monteral to Potland and stopped in this train hub town. Now what we find very special there is the little gem of a restaurant , "HOBO's". Run by a Dad and his master chef son, the ribs and brisket we experienced there were off the graph in flavor. Everything was fall off the bone quality with stunningly good rubs and barbecue sauces home made by this very talented chef. The restaurant is right downtown and has a railroad motif to complement the town's history. Everything was spotless with fast and attentive service. Do yourselves a favor - take a beautiful drive through Vermont to Island Pond and visit Hobo's for "to die for" ribs.

Ordered the open face turkey sandwich, much bigger than I thought it would be and the food was awesome. Probably the best turkey sandwich I’ve had in many many years. Everything was so fresh. Would recommend to anyone and I’ll be going back

Food was excellent! The potatoes had onions (amazing!), the toast was thick, homefries were crunchy, and the beans were the best I've ever had (seriously... we drove an hour to try this place, and we will go back just to have those beans again). Highly recommend!

Restaurant is small, clean and cozy and service was very friendly.

Good food was served fast. I like the no fuss atmosphere, I was there from pretty far away but its obvious this is well-liked local establishment.

Excellent quality, delicious, traditional diner breakfast. The beans are famously good. And the service was very attentive.

As a southerner from the Texas area, let me tell you this place had an amazing taste with every bite of our orders. Looks can be deceiving and this time they were. The food was perfect, the staff were friendly as family, and the price range is affordable. We had great conversation and were treated wonderfully. We will be returning soon!

Excellent service and the food was great! Hearty portions, amazing beans, and the brisket hash was out of this world, they even serve local bread....so good!

Only game in town for breakfast and yahoo it's a good one. Good menu options. Tried side of beans with my order.. WOW. Ordered double order nxt morning. These are money! Due to covid hours and my camping schedule missed their BBQ items. Sad face. THIS IS A VERY GOOD KITCHEN. dont miss it!

I've had BBQ all over the country and Hobo's serves some of the best I have had. Their recipes are amazing and food is prepared perfectly. The staff is awesome, I feel like I am home there.

Awesome place. Have been here several times. Portions to price is great. Food is delicious. My compliments to the chef. The staff is friendly, I feel like family when I'm there.

Had Hobo's Cafe cater my wedding of 170 people based off of strong recommendations only!! Food was raved about-sooo good! Bob and the family were easy to work with, prompt, and professional!! Very impressed!

Best pulled pork in all of northern Vt.
Best home made corn bread in all of northern Vt.
Great prices on the sides so you can try a little of everything.
My go to place for BBQ hands down.

My friends & I were on a roadtrip to Canada when we found this gem. The guy who served us shared great conversation and was so welcoming to a bunch of random foreigners. He even gave us koozies as a souvenir! The breakfast was so good & just what we wanted before our long drive ahead. Thanks!!
