Devils Lake Lavender Bistro Baraboo

It s ok

Vintage Port is a quaint deli / coffee shop on the Square in downtown Baraboo. The owners did a superb job of renovating the location, giving the venue a rustic chic feel. I’m a fan of both the exposed cream-colored brick interior and painted tin ceiling. It’s a fantastic spot to flip open the laptop, grab a homemade pastry and some weapons-grade coffee and power through that spreadsheet / next novel chapter.
I was less impressed with my lunch experience. I ordered the Filthy Pig sandwich, which sported a stellar ingredient list (ham, brie, bacon, tomato with a chocolate balsamic vinaigrette) that befitted the sandwich’s catchy name. Neither the brie or the ham imparted much flavor and I ended up needing to a couple shakes from the salt shaker to amp up the flavor. The generic corn chips that accompanied my meal seemed out of character with the artisan vibe that Vintage Port attempts to convey.

The other issue that detracted from my lunch experience was the glacial pace of the kitchen, which took close to 30 minutes to deliver my meal. The counter didn’t give me any warning that the kitchen was backed up when I made my order, making the wait unexpected and more frustrating.
Will I return – probably, since I really like the space, but only if I have time for a leisurely paced meal.

Taffy was a godsend for me last weekend! We were hosting a huge climbing festival at Devil's Lake and ran short on coffee Saturday morning. I went into Baraboo to seek help, and Taffy was willing to come in early to brew 300 cups of coffee for us for early pick-up the next morning. Not sure you'd get that kind of service/help in many places. Thanks so much Taffy and I look forward to stopping in the future.

Taffy catered our wedding this past weekend and was phenomenal in every way. She was friendly, prompt, courteous, and professional, and of course the food was amazing. Our guests raved above how good the food tasted. I would highly recommend this company for catering any event.

From the moment I called and talked to Taffy at Vintage Port she was so great to work with. She helped me come up with options for my sister's baby shower and everything was easy and went super smoothly. The food arrived right on time and was really delicious! Thank you!
