Coffee Shops near Waterford

“If I could give a 10+ that would be my rating. Rental was easy. I used Joe Forget, who is associated with the facility, as our caterer. Joe and his staff will get a 10+ rating. Food was outstanding to say the least. Bartender, Joe, was accommodating, efficient and friendly. Super great experience from start to finish.“

“This Waterford location made my day! I wasn’t having the best day and picked up my daughter from school and went to the closest McDonalds. Staff was great,food was great, and the location was actually super clean. The manager Marwa, was super patient with my daughter (who took so long to decide what she wanted) she gave us suggestions when we didn’t know what to get and I’m so glad I trusted her! Food was great, costumer service was a 10/10!!“

“After buying a Niche Zero, I needed to buy a new coffee machine to replace the BaristaBrew. I went to their site and Mark gave me a thorough review on the machine that caught my eye (Rancilio Silvia Pro X). Their price was comparable to other sites, but the bottomless portafilter was actually cheaper. Plus free shipping? Good deal. Thanks Chris' Coffee.“

“The associates are sweet and wonderful. I love everything about this place so far. The patrons seem to include some of the happiest, loveliest, most interesting people. I have actually had spontaneous conversations here...wow, conversations, and nice ones. That's special. I adore Jacob Alejandro!“

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

“Local and welcoming. What more could we ask for?“

“Good food and great coffee.“

“It was so good we went here three times while staying at a hotel nearby. I will be daydreaming about the strawberry milk cold brew for a while. Also enjoyed the toffee cold brew and pumpkin dolce latte.

Staff was polite and approachable which isn’t always the case at trendy coffee shops. The ambiance is upscale and design forward which really made it an appealing place to be. Their patio looked lovely but unfortunately was closed due to weather.“

“Just returned from having a wonderful lunch at Tailored Tea. My husband had a chicken potpie and I had a warm turkey, apple and spinach wrap. They were both delicious. Along with our lunch my husband had English breakfast tea and I had pomergranate, white tea, Berry etc. and they were both delicious too. The restaurant was a little noisey, but our lunch compensated for the noise. When you go to Tailored Tea plan on having a leisurely meal and spending at least an hour or more there.“

“Absolute delicious!!! We had Cider Belly be our wedding dessert and they were a hit!! Everyone loved all the delicious flavors and the beautiful display! Jen was amazing to work with from the beginning. They even put a special box aside for the newlyweds to ensure they also get so enjoy the yummy doughnuts!“

“Amazing place - LA coffee at upstate NY prices. Great selection of coffees, perfectly prepared. Loved it!“

“Fifth Tier has become my favorite place to visit on the weekend. The food is heavenly and the space is so inviting and comfortable. The staff ALWAYS helps and makes you feel at home. I highly recommend!“

“Stopped in there today for my first time and I was very impressed, great cappuccino. I’m about to be a regular customer 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Truly amazing and delicious coffee\nStaff are wonderful, competent and excel in the art of customer service.\nEmeline, in particular was our server, she went above and beyond, making us welcome, a star ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️\nAs a nurse myself, I appreciate how difficult it is presenting to the public in a positive manner regardless of our own hurdles.\nkeep being you Emeline, the world needs more loving and caring people like you.\nKeep up the good work.“

“Best hidden treasure in the Captial region. The food was so good. Worth the small time to wait. It's hidden in an office building. It's middle eastern food. I had a beef Ruben and my wife a Gyro. Even the fries were fabulous.“

“Great vibe! Delicious breakfast & terrific bloody Mary’s and other cocktails..!“

“Love Babe’s. I’ve always put it at the top of my breakfast places to eat. Great small town atmosphere that is very rare these days as far as I can see. Paula and Patti have a real winning place to get a great breakfast with big portions for a very fair price. Check it out.“

“As a queer woman in America, with a disability and a service dog... there are many places in this world where I do not feel comfortable, accepted, or even tolerated- much less welcomed. Any time I want to stop into a new place, I get a stomach ache outside, wondering whether people who don't know the ADA, or who don't understand what it's like to be challenged in every doorway for your right to exist, are going to mess up my day. (If you're a person with a service dog, then you know what I mean.) Today, though, I stopped by Cafe Euphoria and finally went in to eat. I can't tell you how happy I am to have found this place exactly as welcoming, warm, and fabulous as everyone had told me it would be. I had just had such a nerve racking morning. All I needed was to sit down worth warm comfort food, and not be bothered. A person in my situation can't take for granted that I can get such a thing in a public place. A lot of people wanna give me notes about the dog. I walked in with my dog, and no one treated me like a pariah or try to tell me I needed to show "papers" to exist in public. Instead, everyone was warm, friendly, and accepting! My dog and I are fairly new to each other. She is completely trained, both in her public access skills and in the tasks she performs to assist me. But in my experience, the whole first year together is really a time of learning to work together and work out any kinks in training. I discovered one today, when a burst of wind suddenly pushed open the door and began flapping papers hung near the door, at exactly the same moment that two guests suddenly stood up to greet each other right next to our table. My dog was surprised, and for a brief moment her training fell apart, with a sharp, brief, yelp of surprise on her part! This is a thing that can happen, even in a well trained dog - they're like people, and we all have our moments. But I've been in many situations where such a thing might have caused all the nasty, snarky little things being whispered around us suddenly get loud and blatant. Technically speaking, a business is not required to allow even a svc dog to misbehave in public, so they could have come over to get gate-keepy over that. (I was pretty embarrassed, as I've had a service dog for my entire adult life and I try to be more pro about it than that. I was actually prepared to just get up and leave, in case anyone was bothered.) But when I looked up, no one was giving me the hairy eyeball! No one was frowning at me, nobody was whispering accusations about my dog not being a "real" service dog. Instead, most people just went on with whatever they were doing, and those who met my eye just smiled warmly, full of acceptance and calm. The server even asked her name, with a bright and sincere smile. God, if you're not a person who is assisted by a service animal, you've NO IDEA both how rare and how special that kind of respectful acceptance can be. EVERYONE wants to patronizingly able- splain to me why they don't think they need to follow the ADA, why they don't think I've got the right to be there, or why they don't "believe," as though their beliefs should matter here, that my dog is really a service dog. This is such a relentless feature of my life that I am flooded with gratitude any time it doesn't happen that way. So much love to Cafe Euphoria! What a lovely, welcoming place. The food was DIVINE! What a welcome change from some of the other places I've been in this region. (Oh the stories I can, and prolly will at some point, tell about businesses not NEARLY this cool!) THANK YOU CAFE EUPHORIA!!!“

“Excellent smoothies & very affordable! Great for this heat!! The bowls are really good too!“

“Finest coffee in the capital district!“

“I have dined in Stacks on numerous occasions and I regularly get take out. This is one of my three go to coffee shops in Albany NY. I enjoy the Chai lattes, seasonal soups, sandwiches, and croissants. The only thing they need is Hazelnut syrup for the drinks!“

“miss the coffee club from many years ago. it was amazing and educational at first, then another person within the coffee club got on a "power trip, and ruined the entire thing". when the coffee club first started it was an amazing way to have a bite to eat, gather with friends, learn about different coffee's and roasts... once the other person took over, it was Mandatory to reserve a spot, and then this individual raised the cost to almost double the cost, with a very limited menu, which this individual revamped the menu to suit their needs ... I get it , there are food allergies, and may be vegetarian or gluten free foods.. their was no longer any input from anyone else in the coffee club... and then the portions and coffee and teas were limited.... I was extremely disappointed.... it only one individual to ruin a great night out with friends“

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

“This place is phenomenal! The owner and other patrons are so kind and inviting! We called whilst traveling from out of town during Christmas just hoping someone may have food available, and the owner texted me personally when the call was missed to let me know he was open and to come by for breakfast! Saved our butts, we had lost hope. Everyone was incredibly nice and the food was so good! Highly recommend if you're in the area.“

“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.“

“I was so excited when I first learned that we have a Joe's here! They're the perfect alternative to both Starbucks and Dunkin'. I love the cozy vibes of everything they do while still being convenient and customizable. Joe's quickly has become my go-to for breakfast and coffee!“

“Wonderful mochas and a great staff💕“

“Always friendly, great with order ahead. Food always good.“

“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...🤌🤌🤌“

“They make amazing teas great customer service and are true to their prices! 🧋😁“

“I had the yummiest mocha latte this afternoon, but even better than the latte was the wonderful atmosphere! I'll be back! ❤️“

“we stopped in tonight to see Buggy Jive and Amelia Ray. they put on a great show. MoJo's had all sorts of beverages. The coffee was amazing!!“

“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! 🫶💛“

“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!“

“Great place with quick service“

“We used Carols to cater a baby shower— not only were the options great, they gave us a good price, all the food was fresh and delicious, and it was exactly the right amount of food for the number of guests. I would definitely use them again and recommend for anyone looking for good local catering options!“

“Have been to four of their locations, and they have all been outstanding. Best bagel and breakfast sandwiches in the Capital District. Coffee also outstanding.

Don't be intimidated by a line, their staff does a great job of moving traffic through without sacrificing quality.“

“Rich and his crew are the best hands down. Always greeted with a good morning and a smile. Make it a point to stop here most mornings, hopefully someone from corporate can see how this crew works because this is how it should be doneRich and crew awesome job!!!!!!“

“Great bubble tea (I love the star jelly—peach flavored), but the real winners are the wings from Basak Wings inside. We like the spicy Asian (spicy and sticky-sweet) and the spicy original. Definitely some of the best wings we've had in Troy.“

“Always friendly, great with order ahead. Food always good.“

“Not quite a da Vinci masterpiece.

Wanted to try to place for a while now but their kitchen hours would end just before I could get out of work on a normal day, but at some point they started to sell liquor and thus were forced to keep the kitchen open during all hours. Works for me.

Ordered online using their website, going with a slice of the quiche, a Vanilla Protein shake, and the Joe Buss'n which comes with chips. Came to just under $36 with tip, pretty standard for Cafe local.

Pickup was simple, right on the outer side of the mall, though they were waiting to make the final touches on my shake. Which as soon as I got it I could tell it was really, watery, which I confirmed back in my car. Typically the protein shakes I have had are thick, like a smoothie, I mean I added bananas, blueberries, strawberries, peanut butter, and a handful of flavors. Yet it was about as thick as the almond milk I picked. Great flavor mind you, great flavor, but no substance or body. To say I was disappointed, would be about right.

Back home I dug into the quiche and the sandwich. The quiche was like many I have had, great cheesy and eggy flavor, the crust was buttery, and the veggies added a nice refreshing edge. Pretty solid. The amusingly named sandwich was, different, but in a mostly ok way. Loved how crispy the ciabatta bread was, the pepper jack was a great choice, chicken and bacon was good, and the veggies were also great, but something about the BBQ sauce muddled the waters. I don't know why, it should have been a good compliment to the meat, maybe it was just too intense? Whatever the reason I found the sandwich to be pretty whatever, nothing to write home about.

Overall, prices match typical cafe fare, service was good, shake and sandwich were disappointing, quiche was good.“

“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“

“Smack freshly cooked great staff shrimp and grits to die for“

“** PLEASE LIKE & SHARE PUR REVIEWS. **
Wheelchair accessible. With fresh snow fall, this Dunkin looks like something out of a snow village. It is located near a plaza with several other shops.
Clean, plenty of seating & fast wifi service. Stopped in to do a quick interview for a potential new agent and ordered some snacks. The service seemed speedy and kind.
Their restroom is very clean & they have tumblers and other Dunkin merch avail. They have a drink cooler and seating for all types : high back stools, booth, tables, high table.
Can order online for pick up or drive thru.“

“My daughter and I stopped in for a quick snack. I had the strawberry frappe and she wanted a chocolate milk out of the cooler. They were all out so the staff offered to make her a fresh cup of it. It was great, she loved it and was very satisfied with the taste. Staff was very friendly, accommodating and efficient !!“

“Had the pleasure of running errands in this area and decided to check out this Stacks location. Their coffee never disappoints and their service is always great. Tried the Espresso Sunrise this morning- I love how creative they are with flavors!“

“Caramel Macchiato! ❤️❤️❤️“

“The service is always good at this location. I think the coffee drinks are great, but the teas are even better. America really does run on Dunkin!“

“Great products, and friendly staff. Awesome place !“

“It's dunkin donuts, go have a donuts! Sometimes the younger crew lacks their attention to detail, like selling people very dirty gift cards or no cheese (on the receipt/order) means no egg. Overall they are quick and you can't go wrong with a good coffee.
