Tomgirl Kitchen — Restaurant in Burlington

I came in with my mom on Labor Day 2023. It was super hot that day, and we had been walking for a long time, and both of us, especially my mom, were pretty close to heat stroke by the time we walked into Tomgirl, desperate for something to drink. Turns out, they don’t sell bottled water, but they “offered” to make us what they called an iced lemonade sweetened with honey, which turned out to be the Lemon Bee Sting on their menu. We were desperate, so we bought them. What we didn’t realize at the time was that the Bee Sting has cayenne in it. They didn’t tell us that before we bought them, we only found out when we took our first sips and choked on it. They weren’t even drinkable. To add to that, on our way out of the shop, we walked past a water cooler and cups, right by the door. It had been there the whole time. I didn’t notice on the way in because I was trying to get my mom inside before she passed out. The women in the shop didn’t say anything about it when we asked them if they had water. Nope, they instead sold us smoothies with cayenne in them, which is NOT what you give to a person on the edge of heatstroke. That was an unkind, awful thing to do, plain and simple. We were tourists, and very obviously not their normal type of customer. They didn’t have to consider repeat business from us, and I get that of course, they wanted to sell their product instead of point out the free water cooler – even though that is literally what we had asked for – that’s how business works. But seriously, in walk two people, one of them a lady in her late 60s, clearly overheated and having a hard time breathing. Do you really think selling her a lemon juice smoothie with cayenne pepper in it is what would make her feel better, especially when that’s not what you told her it was? No. That’s having a laugh at someone else’s expense when all it would have taken is a little compassion and humanity to just give her some water. I would give 0 stars if I could. You don't treat other...

Tomgirl Juice... I love you so very much!!!

Every morning after school drop off I go to Tomgirl Juice and fuel up for my day. Without fail I get a Golden Almond Milk and a Peruvian Lime Juice. If there are quinoa bowls or spring rolls I’ll snag some for lunch, and I always make sure to pick up a fresh buckwheat and berry muffin for breakfast.

When I walk through the door of Tomgirl, and am greeted by Gabrielle and Sherita, I know my day is off to a good start. If I’m feeling under the weather or even in a bad mood they always have a tasty suggestion to set me straight. The food is amazing, the juice is ambrosia, and the people brighten my mornings!

I would recommend Tomgirl Juice to anyone who loves clean eating, delicious food, and fantastic people. Pop in and grab a juice for the road, or sit yourself down and absorb some of the nutritional knowledge that is as freely handed out as the smiles.

And don’t forgot to...

I have been enjoying Tom-girl juices for about 6 months now after a friend brought me three juices when I was sick with a horrible flu. It was the best thing that anyone could have done for me in that moment! I've been buying them ever since on a weekly basis. I buy about 6 a week and now have to share them with my husband and kids - at first I was very annoyed that I had to share them, but have comes to terms with it! We have our favorites but also love trying Gabrielle's new creations! I notice that I don't crave junk food and coffee when I have a good supply of juices as it's my top choice first thing in the morning. When I miss a week, I notice the change in my energy level and I start craving less healthy foods and drinks - I think it has to do with the ph level in the body as the juices can really balance everything. I'm so thankful for Tom-girl juices and only wish I could afford to buy more...
