Still going strong
ABOUT: These pieces are autumn lovely, a little Klimt-ish. A really beautiful fit with the exposed brick and railroad style layout of this sweet counter-service restaurant. The burritos are delicious too-- Boloco uses local meat, so you can chow on the teriyaki in good conscience.
HOURS: 11 AM - 10 PM daily. DIRECTIONS: Boloco is on 92 Church St., Burlington, VT. Boloco is located on the right hand side if you're walking up the hill toward the church. It's just after Stella and Speeder & Earl's.
