44 Best Cafes near Delmar

“I could go on and on, but I won’t. I will say everyone was super friendly, the restaurant was clean and beautifully decorated. Definitely a change from what it had been. The food, very fresh…well priced, ample portions. I already want to go back and eat here again!“

“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.“

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

“Thank you for making the best wedding cake for my daughter's wedding. It was absolutely the best cake we ALL ever had. So many people complimented on the cake and wanted to know where we got the cake from. It really was the best cake we ever had!!“

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

“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“

“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!“

“Went on international donut day, donuts were good but a bit of chewy texture. Only thing that was disappointing was the cinnamon roll, it was dry and hard. (Edit) So I came back after the owner asked that I retry the cinnamon roll, the 2nd time it was definitely better and fresher but maybe I just prefer a thicker roll but wasn't dry. The fudge fancy was decent but on the smaller side compared to other local bakeries. The Lobster tail wasn't bad just have never had a custard filled so it has a different taste and it's very crispy. The Maple Cream Bacon Cronut was amazing and made the trip worth it.“

“The coffee was just ok; I'd skip the pastries. Fairly priced. This is a great place to work, provided you can find a table (has outlets and Wi-Fi)! The best part is they're open past 3pm, which none of the other coffee shops nearby do.

You may have to share a bench with a stranger even if sit at your own table, and they're pretty light so they slide around a bit.“

“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 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.“

“this is my family's go to spot for coffee and caffinated yummy drinks. all the cold berry lattes are really nice and flavourful, the frappes and lattes are just right on the money and the food is always great, and clearly made by people who love what they do. also, the service is excellent. Margie and her staff are super cool.“

“Incredible.“

“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!“

“This place is pleasant and friendly.
They have this Blueberry Pancake Latte that is not on the menu and it's fire.

My special request sandwich was outstanding.
The homie that put it together is a master at their craft.

That latte, tho...🤌🤌🤌“

“Small Cafe for breakfast and lunch with in-house seating.

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.“

“Everything is so fresh and the staff is wonderful!“

“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 literally love Stacks! I’m here usually 3 times a week for work. The workers are always inviting and super nice. I work with individuals who have special needs and they are always willing to help my client’s peers when they purchase drinks and meals. I will continue to support them as much as possible I hope one day they start making refreshers“

“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!“

“Highly recommend this place. The people were nice and had friendly service. I got my food quickly. It was delicious! I wish I had taken a photo but I already dug in before deciding to leave a review. I’ve been trying all the Jamaican restaurants in Albany and this is by far the best! The oxtails were tender and falling off the bone. They also weren’t stingy with giving meat or gravy. The oxtail has a little kick to it(I can’t handle too much spice) but I would say for people who love spicy it would be perfect. Also the sorrel was very flavorful. I will return!“

“Good food, fresh and amazing owners and staff.“

“The lobster bisque was delicious!!“

“I had an amazing dining experience! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting—perfect for a relaxed evening out. We were greeted by the boss Ali, and The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home.

We started with the Mozzarella Sticks which was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. For the main course, I had the Chicken Shawarma Meal and it was absolutely delicious. The sauce was beautiful and the flavors were perfectly balanced, and the portion size was just right.

The bar was also impressive, every drink was perfect, which was the perfect sweet ending to the meal.

Overall,I loved it here. It is a true gem. The quality of the food, the service, and the atmosphere make it a standout spot in the area. I can't wait to come back!“

“The combination of good food and a friendly staff can significantly enhance any dining experience. It is a pleasure to find a place where both the quality of the meal and the service are commendable. When the prices are also moderate, it creates a sense of value for the customers. This balance often leads to a positive and memorable visit.“

“My husband is a breakfast connoisseur and said this is the best breakfast he has had ANYWHERE! The Rocky Mountain Benedict’s was delicious and the Cherry Amaretto pancakes were to die for!! The home is gorgeous and SAM was the best server, hostess all around amazing l person ever! This is a must go and eat when in Albany! 5+++++ stars!“

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

“Wonderful food and the homemade soups are Amaaaaazing. Staff is friendly. Mom and I love having lunch here .“

“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 love the convenience of this place. I usually get something to go and it’s always ready within 15 minutes, usually less.“

“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!!!“

“I love coming here to get a tea! They always have a variety of teas and specials going on!! Every time I come here everyone is always so nice and pleasant!“

“stopped in Choices daily for 3+ weeks while a loved one was hospitalized. every time it was a good experience. nice variety of food every day. best part was all of the staff, every day everyone working was kind, polite, professional, and helpful! 10/10 staff!!“

“Great food and great coffee!!!“

“What I love about this place is the taste of the bagels. I loved their plain bagel with sausage and cheese. The coffee I loved it too. quick service though the 1 person who make my sandwich shes kinda rude but thats okay my food taste good anyways. Price is fair I recommend go here instead dunking donut. Not just serve fresh bagels and good taste coffee the price is right!“

“Peaches is a great spot for breakfast but it also has some nice dinner additions as well. We had the salmon which was tender and perfectly cooked as well as the pasta Cajun chicken. Chicken was tasty and had a good amount of heat. Definitely recommend.“

“Have been to Cafe Capriccio numerous times, over the past 30 years, and we do LOVE it! This last visit was different. We had a very earlier reservation (5:15pm) because we were coming from the MVP area, after a disappointing car show, and then we had theater tickets for candlelight concert. The restaurant filled up very quickly, and I would assume they were planning a seating after the first groups. But I have to admit I felt rushed! We did not tell the staff that we had plans, so we could have been planning a nice relaxing meal. We were not told that the staff was working as a team, as soon as the one waitress took our cocktail order (which came out wrong) another waitress came to take our order. She was wearing washed out blue jeans, not very profesional, and quickly ran off to the kitchen. The Maitra-d asked her a question but she said she needed to "put their order in before I forget it" The dishes as usual were delicious. We will be back and see how that goes.“

“Fast service, best bagels and coffee with affordable prices!“

“Delicious, healthy alternative! Salads, (everything, really)are amazing!!“

“I ordered the brown sugar boba with original tapioca pearls. It was some of the best boba tea I have ever had! The taste was sweet and enjoyable. The workers were very nice too. I got my boba tea in only about a minute after ordering so very quick service.“

“Super nice staff but I got home and had no dressing for my salad. Wish I had double checked before I left. 🤦🏼‍♀️“

“My husband and I got married at Lucas. We had the time of our lives and can’t believe how amazing the day went. From first tour and booking to packing everything up and leaving, Maeve was absolutely phenomenal to work with. She was smart, easy to work with, responsive, attentive, understanding, and just a calm and collected figure the day of the wedding. We rented all of Lucas and the Garden for our wedding. We did brunch so there was a lot of logistics I was quite worried about since the timeline in the morning was so tight to do an 11am ceremony.

Everything went off without a hitch, we had to delay the start time by 5 additional minutes and that was no problem for them! The venue was decorated beautifully. The front lounge is so sunny in the morning and the space felt so warm and welcoming when people first came in. It was raining on our wedding (good luck for us!) so it was so nice having people walk into this beautiful cozy space. The garden is picture perfect. It felt like a dream. It is not a big space so the space would not work for a larger wedding. The garden is where both our ceremony and our reception took place. The staff flipped the space during cocktail hour (by the bar and front area). When they flipped the space, they made sure to include the specials I requested like putting the centerpieces, program, and name plates out. Maeve even realized I forgot table numbers and quickly went in the back and made some for my 5 tables so guests knew where they were going.

We had a few extras that were around the venue in lieu of dancing and all the little nooks and crannies helped fill the space. For events, they have the buffet on the back wall which was perfect and out of the way. The bar was always packed, and everyone said the bartenders were friendly and fast—just what you want at a wedding. I literally had no complaints from any of my guests and everyone raved about the spot. Most of the guests had never been there and couldn’t believe how different and unique Lucas was from traditional event spaces.
The venue was able to play my playlist over their Bluetooth speakers, Maeve helped control the music for us walking down the aisle and the recessional. The venue was so prepared, it was obvious that they had done several events and are true event professionals. They even let us bring everything the night before and put our flowers in cold storage for us overnight to keep them fresh. We had a few large and bulky items and I had lots of bins. I was worried they weren’t going to have the room to store stuff overnight but Maeve took everything to the back and told me that it wouldn’t be a problem which was a huge relief. I created my own flower centerpieces and was really worried that they would die from Friday to Saturday if they weren’t put somewhere safe. My last rave will be about how unlike traditional wedding venues, Lucas doesn’t nickel and dime you. There were no stupid BS fees like napkin overuse fee, coffee creamer fee, set up fee, Bluetooth speaker fee, etc. The contract stated everything and that is what we were charged which is amazing because most venue I feel look at weddings like a cash grab and Lucas didn’t do that.

Only small con is that one of my guests said the roof in the garden was leaking in one small spot so I would recommend that someone looks at the roof ASAP before we start getting summer thunderstorms.“

“This cafe is a team favorite. Excellent espresso, clean space and always welcoming.“
