Eunice Gourmet Café is a hidden gem! The coffee was amazing. I tried The Ash sandwich and was completely blown away fresh ingredients, perfect flavors, and honestly one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. I’m more than willing to drive the extra distance just to have it again!
The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. If you’re looking for amazing food and a warm, inviting atmosphere, don’t miss out on Eunice Gourmet Café. Highly recommend!!

I can tell it's filling a role in the community as it was pretty popular with retired regulars. Has a variety of inoffensive uncomplicated items on the menu, and one of the only businesses serving food in this part of Albany before 11am on a weekday (which is why I went).
Can't say I thought it was particularly good or for me though. I can tell most of the ingredients were the pre-prepared Sysco type stuff we'd get delivered at my old pizza place job, so the bread wasn't fresh baked and ingredients weren't particularly high quality. But, nothing was truly bad either. There's certainly a place for an unfussy cafe like that in any neighborhood but I didn't love that it cost me about as much as Picnic down the street for a much lower quality product. Most of the menu items weren't any cheaper than a lot of the speciality coffee, sandwiches, and other food in the area. So it didn't feel great to spend $32 on two sandwiches with nothing else that don't hit ikes quality.
Service was pretty slow too. Ended up waiting 20 minutes for my sandwiches to be made and it wasn't that busy. I get the whole made fresh angle but it didn't really translate to better quality food and makes me wonder if there's some better food prep that can be done in advance.
There's only a few tables on the inside and a few tables outside so the cafe-and-chat element seems to be missing vs similar cafes I've been to. So not sure what the draw was for that kind of activity when I was there this morning. It'd be awfully hard to find a seat here with someone if you wanted to meet up for a chat.

Eunice Gourmet is a great spot to grab a coffee or delicious sandwich. I recommend the tuna melt and a bag of chips.

Awesome value, great food. Perfect for a simple and filling sandwich at breakfast or lunch.
This place is absolutely fantastic! I'm a bagel enthusiast and have tried many around town, but this spot stands out among the rest. We sampled a variety of their offerings, including the Tuna Melt with Cheddar, Chicken Wrap with Tahini Sauce, Turkey Ham, Swiss on Croissant, and Grilled Chicken Breast with Mozzarella—each one was a flawless addition to our day.We grabbed two for a quick bite on our day trip, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice because all four of them were incredibly delicious. The taste, saltiness, and freshness, along with the aromatic blend of the meats and veggies, were spot on. Everything about the experience was just right.We loved it so much that we came back for another visit, and I think my partner might have already snuck in for more. The combination of flavors, quality, and overall experience has made this our go-to spot. We're both smitten with this place and can't wait to indulge in more of their delightful creations!

Outstanding Yemeni coffee. Medium roast, full bodied, low acid. Amazing mix of flavor tones and balance. If you are a connoisseur of coffees, stop by this place. How lucky are we to have half a dozen coffee shops within a few blocks of here. This one definitely can hold it's own!

Just walked here to check out their coffee and it’s interesting. Barista is very friendly and the place is clean. Tasting Yemen coffee for the first time. Open and appreciative of the opportunity without going to Yemen.Very happy that there is a steady stream of customers coming and some are obviously regulars because the barista knew their names.
