Located on Pine St. in Burlington, The Great Northern first began serving customers in early 2017. Apart from serving lunch and dinner, the restaurant has a raw bar, a full-stack bar, an espresso station, and it serves a Sunday brunch.
The Great Northern, as is implied in the name, combines a Scandinavian influence in their cuisine, with fermented vegetables and salmon tartar being two examples.
Inside, you will find a trendy and fascinating interior. With the large open spaces and warm dark colors, the restaurant offers an exceptional dining room setting for all party sizes.
The Great Northern has a splendid collection of cocktails, beers, and wines. The cocktail pictured here, named "Romancing The Stone", comprises Stonecutter Adventure whiskey, grapefruit liqueur, sherry, honey and lemon.
Another perk about this restaurant is that they make delicious espresso and other cafe drinks. The coffee pictured here, called the "Vermontte", is a crafted latte, containing
carrot juice spiced with ginger, black cardamom, nutmeg, cinnamon, espresso, milk, and Vermont maple syrup.
