50 Best Coffee Shops near Kingston

“My daughter and I were in the area for an appt. and we came across Tino’s and I have to admit this is by far THE BEST Pizza we have ever tasted in our life!!!!! If you have not gone there- please do!!! They have excellent food and will not disappoint. Cheers!!!!“

“I'm so happy I found this gem. After during a few recommendations in a local group, I found myself in town and stopped by. Faraz welcomed me and I was instantly impressed by the vibe. Safe, clean, comfy, and friendly. The music was pleasant, modern, and not intrusive. I enjoyed my Americano and Faraz was extremely responsive and efficient when he noticed I spilled some. I felt pricing was reasonable and I'm eager to go back soon!

Parking: Ample parking is available behind the Cafe, away from the main road. There is one van accessible handicapped reserved parking space.“

“Best coffee, tea, and vibes!“

“Lyberry Coffee is amazing with fresh, delicious food and seasonal coffees! The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming and calm. Go enjoy!“

“This food is just phenomenal. So creative and delicious and the friendliest owners as well. Thank you! ❤️“

“Ginger cardamom scones! Actually, all the scones are delicious. Coffee beans are roasted in a facility in Rocky Hill. Our favorite is the dark roast. Shop local!“

“Great pastry and wonderful black tea. The person behind the counter was very hospitable and friendly. I definitely recommend the cream puffs.“

“Credit card companies make a killing by screwing over small businesses but small businesses would be better suited sorting that out and investing in a functional checkout system than investing in a useless singing robot waiter.

Decent food, very nice regular hot tea as well as bubble tea, with hit or miss desserts in a lovely environment that sometimes takes a very, very long time (even with reservations made over a week in advance).

The QR code on each table would be very simple for orders except that it's not per scan but per table. Several times I tried to add to our order but the site refreshed so I had to add everything to the order again.

In the end, I worried about the buyer getting saddled with four botched orders and resorted to stealing a QR code from an empty table. That way I was able to immediately place and pay for my order without inconveniencing my friends or whoever sat at that table next.

I'd give Prince Teahouse three stars due to repeated disappointment but I don't want to ruin their review score that badly and the employees try their best.“

“too expensive, horrible service, arrogant and ignorant staff. unless you have 15 minutes to wait for a simple coffee and muffin while these igorant people commiserate with college students, dont bother patronizing this place. $15 for muffin, coffee and tip makes Starbucks seem inexpensive.“

“We dropped in for breakfast. The coffee was great and the various pastries and pies. Everything has amazing. We ordered Spinach turnover, cheese danish, egg avocado cheese Sandwich, beef salami and leak and Parma jam turnover, almond raspberry pie croissant.

Service was fast and efficient

We recommend the Black Pearl.“

“Nice outdoor seatings. Order at the counter and they’ll bring the food to you. Pretty coffee mugs, but the latte and flat white are not as strong as I preferred. The sandwiches are tasty, especially the steak sandwich. Reasonable prices. Can get crowded on the weekends.“

“I’ve never been much of a sweets person at all, but I’ve been hearing so many good things about this place, the whole town has been raving about it. Today I decided to stop in and I couldn’t control myself everything looked so delicious, the Cinnabons, cookies, and cupcakes are so fresh and tasty. Pretty busy business, which is a good sign, the staff was so friendly, Lilly helped me out & the owner Joanne is amazing!!! Can’t wait to come back & try more delicious baked goods :)“

“Good food“

We sat on the terrace and enjoyed the coziness. ✨❤️We will definitely come back. I recommend this place to everyone💯🔝“

“This coffee shop is amazing! The owner is wonderful. She recently came to our apartment at The Parc at Princeton Junction for a wine and truffle tasting for Valentine’s Day and it was a fabulous event. So my boyfriend and I decided to stop by her coffee shop and try it out and was I blown away! The coffee was absolutely wonderful! The atmosphere is amazing! If you are ever in the Princeton area I highly recommend this coffee shop!“

Really enjoyed the seasonal iced rose peach tea with avocado toast. The pastries looked incredibly tempting. Those are for my next visit! Great atmosphere and service!“

“My family and I flew to Nj to visit a Buddhist temple for a day and decided to come here for lunch. 10/10 service, atmosphere, and food. The staff was very courteous, the music was perfect volume, and the food was great! If we ever visit Philly/NJ again we are definitely hitting this place again!“

“The products in this particular location are always super fresh any time of day and the employees are among the very best at any establishment in which I have shopped. They are always friendly and engaging and remember their customers. This is especially rewarding as it underscores that the customer is both appreciated and valued. I will go out of my way to shop at this DD site.“

“Hood food and a great staff! Located in what is about to become a very impressive town village

Kid-friendliness: More than welcome

Wheelchair accessibility: They have an ADA Compliant sidewalk and entrance“

“I've been going to this Dunkin' for years, and it never disappoints! The staff here are always friendly and make you feel right at home. Recently, I tried their new tap coffee, and it's absolutely fantastic – smooth, rich, and just what I need to start my day. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee on the go or sitting down to enjoy a donut, Dunkin' always delivers quality and great service. Highly recommend!“

“What a truly wonderful experience it was coming here. This nice young lady that works there was very polite. There was a bit of traffic building up in there behind me, but she was very patient with me as I surely took quite a while to order a few things for my family members. Everything was clean, and freshly organized. She even made sure to reassure me that the utensils were all cleaned properly because I tend to get a bit skeptical due to the possibility of cross contamination. The ice cream quality was great! Much better than most other places in this area. I never asked for that young lady’s name but she wore a lot of bracelets, and had black nails just like my daughter, which I complemented! I will be back in here for sure!

Will recommend this place for all ice cream lovers!“

“Charming little cafe with excellent food and service 😊“

“Great place! Coffee is amazing and their matcha drinks are the best. If you’re ever craving something cold and fresh that’s the place to go’“

“The coffee is excellent and the staff is professional, caring and have an enjoyable sense of humor. I will be back.“

“I have been numerous different Dunkin Donuts, this Dunkin is hands down the best I've been too. I've been here a handful of times and they know what to make as soon as I walk in, have the freshest chocolate glazed donut and the employees are very welcoming! Keep up the awesome job, thank you for helping get thru my day!“

“From the moment we walked in, Sara made us feel so welcomed and comfortable. She was so professional yet warm, which really set the tone for our visit. The entire experience from start to finish was truly amazing! And Renee wow, she is a 10/10 server. So kind, attentive, and genuinely made us feel cared for the whole time. We couldn’t have asked for better service. We’re so grateful we decided to come here and will definitely be back again! 😍😍“

“dunkin donuts has always been my go to for coffee. being honest though, some locations make a better coffee than others. therefore I have my favorites. but overall the service is always friendly. and they will do their best to correct and or adjust your order.😁“

“5 stars Friendly atmosphere and friendly workers“

“I enjoy coffee and I like the way Starbucks is consistent and my area I’m fortunate to have great friendly staff, no drama.

Kid-friendliness: New location is great and offers drive-thru too. Has an outdoor seating area. WiFi included ?“

“Went around 7pm and they actually had sold out of munchkins but wasn’t the end of the world and the cashier said that she still had a few donuts left. She was very nice and she was very patient with us. Definitely recommend instead of the other Dunkin down the road.“

“This place has a nice selection of vegan cookies, plus they don’t charge for plant milk. The cookies are artisanal. One sad thing: this place will be closing at the end of this month (June 29, 2025); so make sure to come by here before then. Updated from previous review on 2025-06-26“

“This Dunkin’ at Schalks Crossing is super convenient and well-run. The staff is usually fast and friendly, and my mobile orders are ready on time. The store is clean, and the drive-thru moves quickly even during morning rush. Coffee is consistent, and the hash browns are always hot and crispy. Great spot to fuel up before work or errands. Highly recommend!“

“Ice cream was good and the people working were super friendly. I am mainly writing this to sincerely thank the young man working Feb 4 who chased me down after I left my wallet. I had an early flight the next day and would have been stuck!!“

“It's a coffee shop inside Whole Foods. Never seems too busy not that they moved it to a corner in the bakery section. Lots of options. You either have to leave with your drink or carry it around with your while you shop.

Vegetarian options: It's all veg and your can get dairy free stuff too“

“We had a wonderful experience at Paris Baguette! We bought to go boxes of coffee for the staff at a local school. Eli and Sarah were so helpful preparing my order. Eli even helped me bring the coffee to my car. My kids and I went back later that day to grab some treats and everything was delicious. They even gave my kids a free hot chocolate! I was blown away by the kindness of the staff and the place was so clean and nice! Highly recommend!“

“Best coffee! Friendly staff! My go to place when I’m in Hillsborough.“

“We stopped in on the way back from a trip to Trenton. We searched for a place to get Pho, soup dumplings and boba tea. This place hit on all three.
This is a small store front and at 9 PM on a Saturday it was very busy. There were a few seats open but most were full. There were a half dozen or more people waiting for food and drinks and a steady stream of people were coming in to pick up takeout.
The decor is contemporary, bright and busy lots of signs, specials, menus, etc.
There were only three employees visible and all were in constant motion.
The service was efficient without time to do much more than acknowledge each customer.
The food and drinks are focus and the draw
I am not a huge fan of boba tea, but when asked to try it, I have to say that it was excellent. The milk tea was rich and flavorful, the bobas were not too sweet, the texture was so much better than others that I've had. (Admitting that I am no expert, I will say that I will definitely explore the drink options when I am able to visit again.)
The soup dumplings were delicious. Many different flavors shown through and blended perfectly.
My favorite pho is roast pork, which was not an option, so we got the standard beef. It was also very good.
This seems to be a Princeton staple and I can absolutely see why. I wish they were closer. I would absolutely be a regular if it was close to home!
I would highly recommend this place!“

“Ginger cardamom scones! Actually, all the scones are delicious. Coffee beans are roasted in a facility in Rocky Hill. Our favorite is the dark roast. Shop local!“

“Beautiful place to visit and walk around. The grounds are open to the public, although you should be respectful of the fact this is a residential college (grad dorms). Dining hall is probably the most beautiful on campus with its fantastic stained glass. A smaller stained glass window in memory of geaduate students who died in WW1 can also be found just outside the dining hall. As a place to live it can be sociable and attractive, but the rooms are somewhat spartan and lack air conditioning. It gets very hot and humid during the summer. Other options are more comfortable, but living here has a very special charm.“

“I also enjoy their coffee ☕️“

“By far the best Starbucks in the area. Stephanie the manager runs a great team and is amazing herself, it’s always clean, always busy but your coffee always comes out as promised. Everyone is kind, even if you are a particular person- like myself that like their coffee a specific way. Oh and the music selection is always the best! Great way to start my mornings on a positive note. Thank you to them for being great people. After Covid the service industry changed- but not here!!!“

“This Dunkin consistently provides great service, good food, and quality coffee. I have been a regular customer since 2024, visiting almost daily, and my experience has always been positive. I’ve noticed many negative comments, but from my perspective, the staff here work very hard and handle a high volume of customers with professionalism. Often, there are long lines both inside and at the drive-thru, and it’s important to recognize that efficient service takes time. Despite everything, my orders have always been accurate, and the employees remain courteous. Overall, this location does an excellent job, and if you have worked in customer service, you will empathize with them.“
