Poindexter Coffee Reviews
Vegetarian options: Great atmosphere and decor behind the Graduate Hotel Lobby. They nailed 1920s Yale/New Haven. Great Gatsby-ish. Large wood-paneled cozy backroom library for studying w/ coffee. Excellent chai latte, croissants, and quick oatmeal
Buckets of charm to this amazing cafe adjacent to the lobby of an equally charming hotel, The Duncan. Ambience was relaxed, comfortable and mellow with lots of droll design details to fill in one's experience. I can't think of a better spot in New Haven for a rendezvous. Added bonus of being on the same block as the mid-century architectural landmark Rudolph Hall, by brutalist master and Yale icon, Paul Rudolph. And the coffee & croissant were fab too!

Service: 5 - helpful...read full review
