Margin Coffee Roasters (Downtown)

Incredibly disappointed in the quality of service here. The barista with the blonde chunk of dyed hair was Incredibly impacient and dismissive. I also witnessed her speak very rudely to the customer in front of me to the point the customer was struggling to order. So sad that such a beautiful business is having its atmosphere ruined by such a careless worker. I will not be coming back, and will definitely not be recommending to any friends looking for a calm and respectful coffee shop to relax in.

I'm a daily drinker of Margin coffee. Staff are always kind and I feel welcome there. The walk from our house is 0.5 mile and our dog insists we go every day.

Very nice design inside. White and black color scheme while still paying homage to the old antique style of the building. The hot mocha I ordered did not have the depth of flavor I was hoping for, nor the latte art on top. Plenty of seating inside with people working away on their laptops - even on the weekend.

Great coffee. Great service. Didn't wait long. Plenty of places to sit and tables to set your drink on. Quiet enough for casual conversation, not too loud. Ordered a turkey tower. Was delicious! Parking was a bit challenging during lunch time.

your guys' menu was so simple & clean looking but with that you guys don't mention the details of your drinks .
your chai came with lavender ??
I definitely would of ordered something else ... & unfortunately it was a waste since both my mom & I dumped our drinks out in the parking lot .
atmosphere could of been a little better than the intense fiddle music that was playing while we got our order to go . lol

So welcoming and delicious!

Margin is a great central meeting space and I always love a piano in the room.

Such a cute little cafe. Service was quick and coffee was tasty. I got the avocado bagel sandwich and it did not disappoint. I'll definitely remember this place next time I'm in Albany

Love these guys. Solid espresso and wonderful pour over options. You literally cannot find a more hospitable place to meet in Albany.

I ordered the rooibos tea, and they nailed it. Perfect temperature, lightly sweetened with honey, smooth and clean without any bitterness.
We shared the cucumber bagel sandwich. Everything bagel, stacked with cucumber, tomato, lettuce, red onion, and cream cheese. Finished with olive oil and vinegar. Crisp, fresh, every ingredient doing its job.

The space is open and light. High ceilings, cool-toned wood floors, pale walls, and plants everywhere. Shelves with artful clutter. A piano tucked by the counter. Everything feels intentional without trying too hard.

The staff were bright, patient, and fully present.

Out front, it’s casual and welcoming. Places to sit, slow down, people-watch.

Strong chance this becomes a regular stop.
