“I always enjoy Panera. This trip, my You Pick Two Tuna sandwich and spicy salad were delicious and made to perfection.
I was having a tough time working my gift card in the self use device, and a team member came right over.
Thanks, “

“The Delaware Cafe is a gem! Exceptional food and service with personal care and attention given to each customer! Such kind staff always willing to help! I have a gluten allergy and they have always been willing to work with me! The last time I was there, the owner came out and asked me questions to help him understand what I needed and actually asked me what my worst fear was. I was able to talk to him about my cross-contamination fears and he listened and cared! I have had a wonderful meal each time I’ve visited the cafe, with no problems whatsoever later. They take good care of me. I really love the homemade corn beef hash! My son has no allergies and he loves all of their Benedict‘s. They are truly treat! Wide array of menu options sure to please your whole party! I highly recommend the Delaware Cafe!“

“Just had the BEST iced vanilla latte that I have EVER had in my entire life 🧋“

“Absolutely delicious. I've only had boba once before (at a different location) and it was so...bland? I didn't like it. I tried this place out on a whim with my friends and I was shocked! It knocked it out of the park in regards to taste. I got a milk tea with boba but it was so delicious that I'm still thinking about it! If you want boba go here. If you're nearby, get boba! I cannot hype this place up enough“

“Baristas are friendly and efficient, and the coffee never disappoints.“

“This place is incredible. I rarely come to East Greenbush and I was driving through this morning and found a true gem of the area. The coffee is great, food is amazing and the staff here is so friendly and inviting. Indoor and outdoor seating, easy parking. The only problem is that I want to eat everything!!!“

“Looking for a spot to get a quick lunch. My son suggested this place. Food was great, service was quick, friendly staff and very reasonable. Definitely looking forward to a return visit!“

“Love love love everything about this sweet little cafe! They have a perfectly small menu, milk alternatives, and the owner is a nice young woman, running the whole place with one other person! I love supporting small businesses like this, especially when the espresso is strong and delicious, the atmosphere is cozy, and the treats are unique.
I'll be stopping by again tomorrow and the next day before I go back home!“

“Highly recommend this establishment - which has a cool atmosphere, delicious pastries, smoothies, and bowls, not to mention friendly customer service. I am not a coffee drinker but if I am anywhere near Graham's and have the opportunity to make a stop, it is a must for me. Extra fun when the owner is up front to say hello. Not to mention her social media content has always been awesome! If you haven't made it a point to go, you need to!“

“We love coming to Bliss and try something different every time. Never disappointed. Tried the Camo, Mellow and Unicorn 🦄 along with Caprise Avo Toast. 😋“

“Looking for a unique spot to get your grub on? Want something with some ethnic scrumptious flare? Look no more. Outstanding food, great service (kind and friendly) HIGHLY recommended. Best Everything bagel in town. It's small and the food inside packs a punch of flavor! You would t be disappointed! There is a couple of tables to sit inside if you wanted to. During the nicer weather there are seats outside but I get all, order to go!“

“delicious bagels. nice people.“

“Absolutely delicious, every single bite. The staff were extremely friendly and always ready to serve you, whether it be a coffee refill or asking for a side of mayo. The omeletts are perfectly made with every ingredient you order in each and every bite. The homemade corned beef hash is some of the best corned beef hash I've ever tasted. The physical restaurant itself is extremely clean and very well maintained. I have been to just about every Diner and Cafe in Schenectady and Albany County, as well as other states. This Cafe is definitely one of the best. Do not hesitate to give this Cafe a try!“

“This is by far my favorite coffee shop in Telkwa and Smithers. I probably spend far too much money then I should here, but I absolutely love it. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere is great, and don't even get me started on the coffee and the food. I don't know if I've had anything that I didn't like from here. I've tried pretty much everything from the pies, meat pies, the freshly made sourdough bread that is just delicious, and the burgers on Fridays. You also have things like the cookies, the brownies and so much more. On top of all of that there's even a lot that I have yet to try, the ice cream being one of them. She even went on vacation for a couple of weeks and that was probably the longest couple of weeks without a good coffee. Oh yeah and I almost forgot, the breakfast wraps are absolutely delicious. You got to try them. Try anything try everything try it all, I'm sure you'll love it.“

“Best coffee around! Bakery items are fresh and delicious. Staff is friendly. Quick service helps in the morning. A must visit 😊☕️“

“A group of 8 to 10 of us has been going to roots every other week for a couple months to play mahjong in the back area. First of all, the food is good and there's a gourmet candy section to drool over at the front of the store. There are also great baked goods to take out. But I would like to address the staff, especially Mallory. They have made us feel so welcome. Our tables are always ready. She already knows what kind of drinks and soups and coffee most of us are going to want...(And when) She greets us and waits on us as soon as we arrive. And she attends to us all afternoon while taking care of the customers at the front of the store. One doesn't see this kind of excellence very often. They are accommodating attentive and fun. Ihighly suggest you try out Roots Cafe if you would like a delightful dining experience with good food, a cozy atmosphere an excellent service, whether you want to go for a quick breakfast or lunch or whether you want to go hang for a couple of hours... and ask for Mallory!“

“Love love LOVE B&B. Such a fun unique business idea, executed with passion, love, and the best Mac and cheese in the 518. You can tell the owners care deeply about each and every guest, and their passion shows in everything they do from their main gaming feature, their food, to the events they host. Warm, welcoming, inclusive atmosphere. Much love to all the staff , and Charlotte and Bryan! 🫶💛“

“We love this place, it's our favorite place for brunch! Looking forward to bringing out of town family with us tomorrow. We have brought them here before, but they asked us to go back.“

“Great and friendly service!“

“We tried Mimi’s for the first time after seeing posts on Facebook. Food was great, service was super friendly, and we will definitely be back!“

“This is a really cool coffee shop, and their prices are great too!! I absolutely love their coffee and bagels, and I really love their soup. Their lattes are so amazing. And they get almond milk to foam a lot too. Most places can't do that. I try their special and seasonal lattes a lot, but lately I've been going a lot, so I got tired of the same amazing latte, so I tried the caramel latte, and Oh, THAT WAS GOOD. I've had a caramel latte before, but that one was SO good. I definitely recommend it. They do have a ton of options, I like to get the cinnamon raisin bagel with PB and J. It is really good. They have super good cream cheese here too. I definitely recommend that too. And the bagel sandwiches? 😋😋. I recommend getting the Mediterranean sandwich. I really love this place and hope you do too!!!“

“Can’t say enough about this place! The egg and cheese biscuit and the tahini butter and jam sunflower toast were amazing! We enjoyed the cold brew as well. Cool industrial decor. This is a must stop place for us on our way to upstate and VT. Thanks for the great service!“

I’ve had a few different sandwiches here, but their soups and baked goods are my favorites.

Located on Broadway in Menands, small parking lot on the side.“

“Workers are all super friendly. Lovely warm inviting space with plenty of room. Food is always yummy and coffee delish! (also I'm sorry for my husband's 1 star review - I'm trying to get him to take it down. I don't know why he's so grumpy)“

We have been there for her amazing breakfasts and have ordered her take out pot pies and WOW, we were not disappointed with our amazing dinner. I had the Eggplant and my husband had the Filet. Warm and cozy atmosphere- just perfect!!“

“The atmosphere and vibe of this cafe is amazing!

The entertainment on weekends are nothing that I have experienced anywhere else.

Mr. Ventura is always polite, attentive and accommodating. The staff are as well! Really giving you that welcoming hometown coffee shop feeling.

Considering I drive 30 minutes out of my way to grab a bite to eat. That should say enough about how delicious the food is. But if I must, the food is just as excellent! The Love Salad is my favorite! They also have gluten free options!

This is Just a steller place to experience!“

“My mother-in-law and I brought my husband he for his birthday brunch. He told me to leave ya'll a 6 💫 review, no wait time to be seated, all the staff were nice and friendly, and the place its self was clean and very well lit. The food was amazing and came out in a timely manner. Thank you all for making this such a good experience. We definitely will be back for the lunch menu!“

“First time here and the workers were so kind and welcoming. The place was very clean, there are tons of great options to choose from, and the prices are very reasonable. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Five stars for the atmosphere because I haven't tried everything to eat or drink. When you come here to sit down and have your coffee, etc, you notice that people actually come here to talk to each other. It is a very cozy setup, and local crafts are on display.“

“So grateful Works Cafe opened a location near Crossgates Mall (Guilderland/Albany)! Only a couple minutes from I-87, worth the stop! Great smoothies, bowls, bagels, sandwiches, and bring your coffee mug to fill for a discount. Best loyalty program too! Earn points! My favorite smoothies… Carrot Mango with added protein and the Kale Crush with added protein. Great for after a workout or when on the run! The folks working there are the BEST TOO!“

“favorite place to get me through a night managing at chilis“

“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.“

“Choices Cafe - truly a cafe that lives up to its name ✨ I chose a Snickers bar and some delicious Cool Ranch Doritos 😋 if you’re on the fence about whether to dip your toes into the cafe’s vast array of selections (choices one may say), I suggest diving right in 🕺“

“We had our first couples boxing class last night and it was outstanding. Corey is open to unique class ideas is very welcoming to everyone. Our trainer was also outstanding! He worked out the entire time with my husband and I and kept the enthusiasm alive the whole time! Such an awesome experience from some other gyms and group fitness that yell at people or don’t watch for correct form and ensure safety. We will be back!!!“

“friendly welcoming stuff, delicious food and desserts, dog friendly“

“My daughter and I love coming here for a a special lunch together. Everything is always delicious. The service is always friendly and polite. The place is clean and great ascetics. And really reasonable pricing for high quality food. I cant wait to go back!“

“It’s basically a Starbucks, so they sell most of the same things as a Starbucks. However, they’re not the exact same as a Starbucks, so you won’t get free water like you would at an actual Starbucks. But if you’re paying it’s basically the same as a real Starbucks.

Parking: There’s a parking lot near the Mueller Center, which is nearby DCC.
