Glad we stopped here on our way through town. Went for the coffee and vegan pastries (which they seemed out of) and ended up checking out the book selection, too. Very friendly and welcoming staff
Aaron Cowan
Excellent selection of books; I encourage anyone who seeks neat vintage novels, essays, etc… to shop here. Owner was lovely and open to any conversation. There are some who might disagree with his political ideologies, but truly he was a pleasure to talk to, and if you want to expand your perspective on any of broad issues of the 21st century, give this place a visit.

My brothers and I got sidetracked riding on the Empire State trail from New Paltz and trying to find a good way into Kingston to have lunch and recharge. Just wanted to thank the young man at Blackbird who took the time to give directions for lunch spots and then the best way to ride back up out of the river valley and back to the trailhead. It all worked out great, we had a really nice lunch and then rode up into central Kingston without having to go straight uphill… much appreciated as we are not young guys! Thank you my friend, appreciate your time and assistance very much!! Chris

Wonderful people, open to chatting and wonderful books, food, and seating.
Dean Labowitz
Wonderful and expansive collection of lefty books unlike any other these days. Wide selection of books on anarchism, Marxism, Black studies, movements, and poetry. Many vintage books on these topics that make for a fun and surprising journey through history. Plus the coffee and pastries are incredible!!!

My husband and I quickly stopped here for breakfast during our vacation. I have to say those pastries were amazing! We got some type of savory pastry with mushrooms which may have been the most amazing pastry I've ever tried, a beautiful cinnamon role and an almond croissant.
Wow - all three were winners. Definitely worth the trip.

We were traveling through on New Year’s Day and looking for coffee. Found this great place open. Warm inviting and what we all need in my opinion. It was a welcome treat to find books on the very topics that had been circling my mind for the last few months right there on the shelves. No judgment just information to help you stay on track and want more. Thank you for opening a place like this. And in such a beautiful spot for discovery. Happy 2024 and keep it up!
