This rating is not for food, drinks, or atmosphere related. First time in Albany and wanted to check this place out. Was very interested in this place however it is difficult to access. While following Google maps to park, there were no roads that leads to this place.
It’s likely that the (student) parking lots are somewhere around the whole college and you would have to walk there. Still confusing nonetheless. Seems like it’s a local student cafe rather than a tourist spot. It is unfortunate that I wasn’t able to try this place out! I was actually looking forward to it.
Great quick bites and rice bowls. Everyone is so kind and welcoming. Really enjoy this spot!

The food is just very generic; you're going to get what you paid for. We ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on a croissant and received Canadian bacon. The cold brew is also very weak and feels like it's just coffee that's been iced. For a new establishment, it's not terrible, but I'd recommend improving significantly.

The ambiance and food is awesome! I’m visiting from another country, and I came in here with a friend to get a coffee, but we ended up ordering much more than that. Definitely recommend to stop in and give it a try. If I lived here I’d be here everyday to work, or bring people/friends in.

I really wanted to love this place because of the convenience being on campus, but the food is terrible. I've tried the sandwiches, gyros, quesadillas, soups.. multiple things to see maybe if it was just that specific item but it's not. The food is below mediocre, tasteless and takes a while to receive. I had broccoli cheddar soup the other day that tasted like broccoli in hot water, wasted $7. Would give it 1 star based upon food, but gave it 2 simply for the decoration and looking appealing.

An adorable little cafe located in the Maria College but open to the public.They have breakfast sandwiches, bagels with cream cheese, lunch foods, a respectable number of espresso beverages as well as teas and juices.
