Even though it is a cloudy and rainy day. Battery Park was a good spot to enjoy some of Beansie’s amazing fries. Definitely the best in Burlington. Shared a large, it was plenty big enough. Thank you for all the years!

I’ve been going to the yellow bus since I was three years old and it is just as I remember it. I lived on Park street when I first moved to America. I used to play on the swings for hours then my grandfather would buy me a small ice cream. It became a daily treat. What I didn’t understand was that my grandfather saved His change throughout the week to save up for my ice creams. The staff nicknamed me “The Penny Kid,” by the end of the summer. Revisiting Beansie’s as an adult is nostalgic. The staff feels like a family with new faces. The burgers are classic American slider style while the French fries have a classically salty taste. The fries aren’t crispy but that brown soft fry that pairs perfectly with a few sprays of vinegar. Popsicles, canned soda, and hot dogs are all perfect additions to your day at Battery Park. Beansie’s has allowed us to enjoy days, evenings, and sunsets here for years.

I just graduated from UVM and went for the first time yesterday, on the last day before they closed for the season. The lady serving me gave me free fries and a drink. She was incredibly kind and it really made my day, plus the food was excellent. I'm excited to go back in April!!

Prices are unlike anywhere else in Burlington Vermont, and FOR A YUMMY BURGER?! I accept. Only issue is they seem to be cash only, so if you’re like me and have Bank of America, sorry to say that you may have to find an atm out of state before coming to this delicious truck. However it is well worth it, as it accommodates towards the community of individuals (such as myself when I was unemployed) who suffer from limited income. That plus the food is very good!

Had to get my Beansie's Bus fix. Went with the Michigan hot dog and a pint of frys. The French frys were awesome as ever. The Michigan was very good

Great food. Ordered the Michigan dog, a hamburger with Michigan sauce and fries. The fries were awesome and they give you a lot- 2 people could split a small. The Michigan sauce was very tasty and a little spicy which I really liked. They’re cash only so come prepared!
