Handy’s is the authentic diner experience, conveniently close to the train station. All seating is around a U-shaped counter. Earl, the 3rd generation owner, is a sweetheart and the soul of this establishment. He engages with all his customers. The Big Daddy Breakfast certainly lived up to its name…filling and hearty. Next time, I’ll ask for a stronger brew of coffee. Overall a homey spot for breakfast.

This place is great, your quintessential greasy spoon diner! It was busy when we arrived, but there were a few open seats still available at the counter. They only have counter seating, but there are about 13-15 seats. I ordered eggs and bacon which came with home fries and choice of toast, I chose rye. My sister tried the SST which she said was beyond amazing. My food was hot and very tasty too. Definitely a locals type place, but they didn’t flinch an eye when us “strangers” showed up. Great service, great food, limited hours, but worth it!

Delicious! Such a cute and small diner, very affordable options and quick service! The owner was cooking when we went and it’s so nice to be able to watch your food be prepared and have the cook himself ask how everything is! So good I had to take a bite first!

Awesome place. Delicious food. Great prices. Loved this place. A little close on the seats, but otherwise this place is sweet!! Will be back!! Great off the beaten path, but yet still close to Church Street. A hidden gem!! If you want a cheap, filling meal, this is the place to go.

As a tourist, this felt like a classic American diner experience. No frills food but that ain’t a bad thing. Great service too!

I had breakfast here with my sisters the atmosphere was great I felt like I was having breakfast at a family member’s house. Being from out of town Earl was just a great person to meet. Great food, great service, and Earl just felt like a great person. Thank you from NY.

Atmosphere is awesome. Walk in and they greet you, food is made pretty much in front of you. Yes a little pricey but WELL WORTH IT. Best breakfast sandwiches around hands down. I’d drink an hours from where I live to eat there again and again.

If you’re in Burlington, this is the place to go for a great breakfast! It’s a small neighborhood place with a casual, friendly vibe, excellent homemade corned beef hash and interesting breakfast sandwiches.

We were in Burlington to visit UVM from Nashville, and were looking for a great breakfast joint. After a little research we decided on Handy’s, and I couldn’t have been happier. It was delicious. They have lots of breakfast sandwiches to choose from, real French toast, homemade pancakes, and delicious bacon! Couldn’t have felt more welcome to be there too. Really enjoyed it, and look forward to being back!
