“I just started working in Alden NY, a coworker told me about this place and they did not disappoint. I’ve never written a review before but I had to let everyone know. Next time you go to Six Flags you have to stop here.”

“Overall, this was an incredible dining experience. The food, service, and ambiance were all top-notch. I will be back definitely! . I highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you from Saratoga Springs NY 🤘”

“I was pretty bummed when I found out my favorite tea was discontinued a couple years ago. Someone posted on Reddit to try Design A Tea, so I did and it completely exceeded my expectations. I was thrilled to find that I could have my favorite tea custom created- Green tea, orange, passionfruit, and jasmine. The options that they have available is insane. Absolutely love the recyclable packaging, custom labels, and the bags that were included. Lovely tea and a good book are one of life's little pleasures :)”

“We stopped to grab coffee on our way out of Darien Lake before our 2 hour drive home. Zay helped me with my order of a vanilla cappuccino and she was incredibly customer-focused. She was friendly and kind. It was a perfect end to our visit.”

“Wings were big and meaty for about $20 for 10. Got the Buffalo medium and the sauce was tasty. They come with celery and blue cheese. My only reco would be to cook them a bit longer they weren’t crispy but the size and taste was excellent.”

You can tell the chef is passionate about his food and loves what he does. The food is always fresh and tastes incredible!! Thank you for such a wonderful experience every time”

“👍👍👍👍👍Even though it was Labor Day and there was a limited menu, my friend and I had the best lunch. Our waitress, Amy, had made crab cakes (from scratch) which were to die for! Kudos to Amy...not only for her culinary skills, but for her humor, her willingness to please and her gift of knowing what the customer wants before they do! What a friendly place to kick back and have a nice meal! p.s. I tried to do a google review. I'll try again tomorrow...”

“I love Alden Coffee House! The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The menu has something for everyone, and everything I’ve tried has been excellent. sometimes I feel like Norm from Cheers when Danielle yells out my name. Whether I’m grabbing my usual or trying something new off the monthly board, it's always great!”

“Windy Brew offers a nice selection of drinks in a cozy, smaller setting. They also offer a limited food menu. A unique touch is the cool wall display of law enforcement patches. While there's parking out front, note the extra spots along the right side (potentially belonging to the owner). The staff is friendly, but note that growlers are not available for purchase; be sure to bring your own for fills!”

“Delicious food and Ginormus portions I ate till I almost threw up”
