“Only go to this coffee shop if you want the best cup of coffee you'll ever have in your life. Only go if you want to be greeted by the kindest people in the world.

I had the absolute pleasure of coming to Anna et Pierre this past week while visiting a friend, and since then no coffee I've had has compared to the one Gigi made (seriously, you 100% must get Anna's Mocha Latte!!). My friend had already hyped up the coffee (and the kind people) so my expectations were already high, but the second I stepped into the door they were blown out of the water! The cafe itself is super pretty with the atmosphere being light and airy, almost all of the tables were filled with patrons either working or chatting, and we were greeted by two smiling faces behind the counter. Gigi immediately turned her warmth to the two of us and started up conversation, while Dade impressed me with his knowledge on all of the cafe's menu items and their specifics. I ended up getting Anna's Mocha Latte (which I still daydream about) and a raspberry jam filled muffin. Every sip and bite was to die for. My friend and I sat and enjoyed our food and drinks for a while before we sadly had to leave, but we ended up going back several days later. Gigi greeted us again with a smile and remembered my name (impressive after only meeting me once!), and I got an iced hazelnut latte and a raspberry jam filled croissant. Both were just as amazing as the previous choices.

I will now forever and always recommend Anna et Pierre to anyone I meet. Their customer service skills are top notch, genuine, and evident the second you pass through the door. Add-in their amazing quality beverages and pastries (at prices that won't hurt your wallet!), then you have on your hands an absolutely one-of-a-kind, magical place. You will not regret coming here... and then coming back again and again!

(I cannot stress enough that you have to try Anna's Mocha Latte!!!)“

“Different, welcoming and quaint.“

“Great food - as in tasty & good for u!“

“This spot is incredible. The chocolates are mind-blowingly good and the coffee and other beverages are amazing. Original, creative, ethically sourced, and cosy.“

“Love this Place with my whole heart!“

“OMG - best donuts around! Especially the jelly donut. So good 10/10. The fact that they only make them on Sunday’s makes it perfect too. It’s like a special little treat only on Sundays. I love it!“

“First time at the location in Gardiner today- and I’m so happy I decided to try it! An iced lavender matcha is to DIE for! I didn’t catch the young woman’s name but she was so helpful, answered all my questions and made me a custom drink- and even made sure I liked it! The smoothie bowls are so fresh with crisp fresh fruit and toppings.. highly recommend! 😍“

“The owners, James and Michelle, and staff are always welcoming. Great selection of coffee and tea. They'll grind your selection of beans or take em home whole. James' paninis just great. Starbucks has nothing on Mudd except hype. You want good ☕️ and reasonably priced selection of quality products when you need a break Mudd Puddle is worth a drop in.“

“Absolutely beautifully crafted and delicious desserts. Staff/students are extremely helpful.!“

“Spice Catering came highly recommended to us by our venue and friends. We are SO glad we went with them. We had our wedding at Locust Grove Estates. Billy and his team were a well-oiled machine working there. They knew the venue in and out. They also knew what to recommend for us for the venue. The day of the wedding, Spice Catering ensured that we ate and that we always had drinks if we wanted them. They were flexible with us in determining if we keep the ceremony/cocktail hour inside/outside due to the weather forecast. They also had plenty of staff to greet guests as they entered and to serve our guests. Erick, our maître d', helped our day of coordinator set everything up, take everything down, and ensure the timeline was followed smoothly. Erick was amazing to work with and took the time to get to know my husband and I to best support us on our wedding day. Our guests complimented how delicious and hot the food was and mentioned it as a highlight of the wedding. We HIGHLY recommend Spice Catering.“

“First time visited Paula’s today, Jan. 5, 2025. Had a delicious breakfast with wife, will definitely be my go to place from now on! Friendly staff and friendly owner!“

“Best bakery/restaurant around! Can't go wrong whatever you order it will be delicious and authentic. Fresh and cooked in a spotless clean environment. Everyone in the staff are wonderful and friendly, attentive. A true gem of the Hudson Valley. My favorite is the chicken noodle soup, homemade with big chunks of fresh chicken carrot and a wonderful broth. Along with the incredible strawberry shortcake. But again choose whatever you like guaranteed delicious“

“friendly and food are very refreshing and healthy!“

“Very sweet people .. good service .. supreme food“

“Incredible experience that touches deep in the soul and resonates for days, months, years and likely a lifetime. For those open and accepting for the light and dark energies that connect us all“

“I'm on the fence, I've had awful lasagna (brick of mush and sauce) and the most amazing Alfredo. I've found dishes I really like and stick with them. I do really like their grandma pizza. Best to call in your orders rather than go online. They are nice people all in all.“

“My daughter love this place and she is 8. What the hell so do we!“

“What a lot of students(who don’t have a very good understanding of health restrictions) complain about is the food quality this year, as if it’s completely terrible. The dining staff has done a terrific job this year, obviously the food is not going to be as good, or I would even say very good. It’s covid times, and they’re mass producing food for the student body. The dining staff is equally at risk and I am grateful that they have put in the work into improving the food, and it is very good.“
