The environment was very welcoming. Along the walls they have art and clothes you can purchase and games you can play. The food was cooked nicely with great portions. The blueberry muffin was especially tasty! The matcha was made traditionally but if you want more of the strawberry or lavender flavor, I would ask for extra. Would definitely come again! read more

Such a cute space to get breakfast and do some work! We stopped in during the Troy Farmers Market and it's such a creative and collaborative space! We didn't try any of the menu items but the coffee was pretty decent and our baristas were very nice. It took a little while for them to make the drinks but the cafe offered some fun things to look around. The pastries looked yummy in the display so might have to venture back to try them. Overall it's a fun little spot to stay a moment. read more

Yummy vegan breakfast options with the ability to accommodate gluten sensitivity. Food not pictured because it was devoured. Quick service, friendly, great vibe and coffee. This is a gem read more

I love this place for its vegan and regular options. Drinks always come out the way I ordered. The menu items are varied and I've never had a bad meal. Peanut noodles, homemade pop tarts--you can't go wrong here. Very welcoming as well. read more

My partner and I like to come to Cafe Euphoria because we feel welcomed, safe, and we feel in community. The food is also fresh and delicious. I think having this venue in Troy really makes Troy a good place to live. Thank you Atsushi for always being attentive :) read more

So friendly!! I visited Cafe Euphoria for the first time and tried their vanilla chai ice tea. The person working was really welcoming to the cafe. Such a relaxing safe space read more

We stopped in here during Chowder Fest to enjoy their butternut squash soup offering and check out the space. They have a chill environment with several tables and they had set up the Chowder Fest table at the front of the restaurant. They also have a small selection of clothing and accessories for purchase up at the front. The butternut squash soup was really good with a touch of cinnamon. My only suggestion to improve would be to locate a separate trash bin outside for folks participating in Chowder Fest. It was inconvenient to have to go back inside the restaurant to dispose of the soup cup and spoon after enjoying our soup outside because there were so many people waiting in line for more soup. Would definitely check this place out again next time we are in Troy! read more

Good food, good people, good vibes. 10/10. We were looking for a brunch place to go to and we had passed by their stall during Troy farmer's market. Our group was a mix of vegan, lactose intolerant and omnivores and this place was perfect and delicious. They had alternative options for all their entrees. We got the brunch pre-fixe menu, where you could get everything on the food menu + coffee/tea. For $8/$16 or $24 (per person and price scaled based on your income), we got to try: [summer 2022 specifically] - soy chorizo tacos, well spiced and super flavorful - bagel with lox, picked onions were a nice touch - cold soba noodles, refreshing on a hot day and PERFECT soft boiled eggs - kimchee fried rice, personally like it more kimchi but delicious none the less - belgium waffles, highly recommend getting a side of ice cream with this - tofu scramble, the adobo sauce was SPICY but GOOD. recommend not dumping the whole thing on unless you are good with spice. - mango and raspberry sorbet, omg I'd come back just for this. no dairy but it tasted almost creamy and so so refreshing! - brownies, too crumbly for my liking as I prefer fudgey. Highly recommend trying this place! As a bonus, going to this place is a great way to support the local and transgender and non-binary community! read more

I come to Cafe Euphoria as often as I can for lunch, breakfast or to work while sipping one of their yummy coffee roasts. The vibe is warm, welcoming and fun. I like the chatter around me, and that sometimes families are playing board games at the next table over. Everything is tasty and fresh, with flavors and textures always in an appealing balance. My vegetarian friends get as many options as I do. A key for me in making a place one of my regular habits is cleanliness in the washroom: theirs is clean, well-equipped, spacious and neat. read more

Great food with a freindly courteous staff and welcoming environment. I highly recommend. Lee read more

Troy NY is a funky place, including Euphoria Cafe. We stopped in on a Sunday morning shortly after opening. The cafe is a trans visibility project and LGBTQ+ friendly space. Had okonomoyaki (Japanese savory pancake) prepared by one of the owners and a breakfast sandwich with a cafe latte and a mocha. Service was friendly and food was tasty, though our server was a little scattered. Got the sandwich order incorrect and had trouble with the coffees but we weren't in a rush and it was all quickly rectified. We will be back! read more

The ambiance is very homey and welcoming, the food was hearty and fairly priced, and the service was warm and friendly. I had the vegetarian chili and an arugula salad, and both were perfect. A plus for me is that it's pet friendly. My dog and I sat on the patio, and there was a jar of dog treats by the register. read more

Super tasty and healthy and friendly. Had a great vibe and the food was great. I had the curry and my mom had a blt.

I guess we've always gone at the wrong times--I really wanted to love this place, I support their ideals, but don't go expecting a warm welcome. We've never received one, and the food is seriously mid. They broke my queer kid's heart tonight--how shitty do you have to be to tell a kid brave enough to come to a game night by himself that bringing friends is "strongly encouraged"? If he had them, he'd bring them. Don't position yourself as being about creating queer community if you can't back it up. We won't be back read more

Absolutely fantastic place. It felt like I was in a close friends house and was treated as such. The food was so delicious, I had the Korean bowl and my boyfriend had the Mac and cheese. Genuinely one of the best places I've ever been to. read more

My family and I were downtown checking a deed at the County clerk's desk office and decided to grab a bite and a cup of coffee. My family is pretty square so we had no ideal it was an LGTBQ space. There was a selection of shoes out front, which kind of threw me off because I wasn't sure whether it was a boutique or a cafe. It was a really welcoming space- sunny and bright, radio playing classical music, modern decor. The food was healthy, homemade and tasty. Dad got the mushroom omelet, mom got the egg sandwich and I got the butternut squash soup. Would love to know what they season the eggs with- they were a standout. The staff was pleasant, friendly and went out of their way to make us comfortable. Highly recommend this independent business. read more

I stopped by Cafe Euphoria for lunch, which just opened in Downtown Troy. This vegetarian cafe/restaurant and kitchen is LGBTQ and Transgender owned and operated. The place is pretty cozy and homey with table in the front, open prep kitchen and counter seating in the back. They also have a small thrift shop inside the cafe. There's also sidewalk table seating in front too. The place was fairly busy when I got here so I sat up at the counter. They offer vegan and vegetarian friendly food here made to order items including sandwiches, Belgian waffles, chorizo tacos, salads, muffins, pastries, cold drinks, coffee, tea, and dessert items. I decided to order a 3 item Prix Fixe ($21 plus tax, save $6) and went with the Grilled Eggplant Sandwich, Citrus Salad, and Coconut Cake with ice cream. I paid first at the register and took a seat at the counter. I watched my food being right made in front of me, practically sitting in the kitchen.  The Grilled Eggplant Sandwich had thin slices of pan grilled eggplant, Sriracha, arugula, red pepper remoulade between chewy ciabatta bread. The Small Citrus Spring Green Salad had greens, arugula, oranges, sweet almond clusters with a lime vinaigrette dressing. The first two items were really good, fresh, and tasty. The dessert however was very basic, a slice of frozen Pepperidge Farm Coconut Layer Cake served with a scoop of Stewart's Vanilla Ice Cream. As I was eating, the kitchen was running out of ingredients for certain popular items such as eggs and kale for the Breakfast Burritos. The service from the staff was friendly and welcoming.  Overall, Cafe Euphoria is a good place to stop for a bite to eat, especially being close to the Troy Farmer's Market area. read more

Stopped in a bit after opening time and they weren't exactly ready but they were friendly and accommodating about. Food was excellent, service was friendly and attentive, prices were great. Can't really comment on ambience as they were putting things back together after an event the night before, but looks pretty cute. Great location in historic, downtown Troy on River Street. read more

Warm, welcoming atmosphere, delicious food, very friendly service... can't wait to return!

Although I'm a stranger to all the people is this cafe. I feel like it's an another home with a caring family. Their food is amazing and everyone is so welcoming. They have games to play, and shelves with cute/cool things made by small businesses. I love going here with my girlfriend! read more

I finally had a chance to visit Café Euphoria in person and I loved it! I am a really picky eater so I thought I would try something simple like a Caesar salad and I was not disappointed. The dressing they use is the bomb! I don't know whether or not it's homemade, but it is delicious! Their chocolate chip cookies were fresh out of the oven and they were warm and chewy. I have dined there several times since my first visit and everything is always so fresh! I actually ordered a Caesar salad at well known pizza chain while in New York and it tasted like it was store bought. It did not compare to the one at Café Euphoria. The service was excellent and the wait for my meal was not long at all. To pass the time while waiting for my food, I was able to do a little shopping. They have handmade jewelry and artwork on display for purchase and they have a small thrift store in the back with clothing for men and women in a large range of sizes. I bought myself a few pairs of handmade earrings and a beautiful blouse from their thrift store. I will definitely be dining (and shopping) there anytime I'm back in New York! read more

Atsushi is a gratuitous host and wonderful person. You can't miss going here! The coffins great and so is the conversation! read more

We stumbled upon this quirky spot. The ambiance is super eclectic and crowded. The food, however, was quite tasty and definatley made to order. The staff was friendly and helpful. read more

We were visiting Albany and found this charming, eclectic spot. Housed in an old building that has been given new life with this Cafe. The kitchen manager was warm and welcoming and the menu has a nice variety of food options as well as beverages. Gluten free and vegan options available too. Try the Belgian Waffle with fresh berries and a fruit bourbon compote. As pretty to look at as it was beautiful. Will come again next visit to Albany! read more

Just finished a euphoric breakfast at Cafe Euphoria! The restaurant provides a welcoming and vegan friendly eating environment. There are some meat items on offer, which we appreciated. My party of four enjoyed the house breakfast omelet, a couple Euphoria's breakfast sandwiches, and a delicious breakfast burrito. Everything was prepared fresh and presented nicely. The house adobo sauce was smokey with a nice kick. The coffee was "endless cup" and "help yourself"; and yet still delicious! The owner was delightful and provided attentive service. The restaurant was clean and airy and offers outdoor seating on the sidewalk. We ate inside and enjoyed the eclectic decor. We will certainly be back. read more

I was in to look for some clothes for a wedding for my young adult step-child from their curated thrift. Though we were unable to return to make a purchase, I am grateful for the excellent, thoughtful assistance I had from Ryke (sp?). I didn't have the time to grab a snack, but hope to return sometime soon to try out their delicious looking food. read more

Full of good feelings about this place. When's the last time I was met with generous, radical, trusting, intentional energy when ordering a single drink? A then pay for that drink on sliding scale pricing with unlimited refills?! And to know that the folks running the place are building community and safety and accountability? While there I witnessed the owner speaking with someone. Without getting into specifics, I fully believe the owner knows what it means to navigate violence and somehow survive with the capacity to love other people. This is probably a heap ton of projection and assumptions for such a short encounter, but whatever. I left with a glow. read more

Not enough stars!! We are regulars here, including my emotional support dog. We love it. The food is always fresh and cooked to perfection. The whole menu is diverse, and the fact that they have offerings for vegetarians and vegans is a huge plus. They have awesome themed nights and great events. We love the board game nights and drag shows. They have a stellar drink menu. My favorite is Mara's Strawberry Matcha it's pretty and delicious. They have so many innovative ideas, and I love the fact that they have worker/owners. It's a great space to work from or meet with friends. The staff is kind, knowledgeable, and fast. I'm always excited to see their seasonal menus, and we are HUGE fans of the Prix Fixe brunch. There is also an on-site thrift shop. Our faves The dusted fries Gyoza Brownie Ala mode The Japanese Pancake with Salmon Miss Breakfast Burrito with sweet potatoes Chorizo tacos Muffi the Service Dog enjoys a side of the smoked salmon and fresh bowl of water she gives them 5 wags. read more

Loving this place more and more! Innovative menu, super welcoming atmosphere, well curated thrift. Open mics fun and needed.

usually love love LOVE the food here and the environment is always awesome, just went at a bad time today. please never leave the buzz cut guy and the man bun guy alone in the cafe ever again jesus christ it took an hour for two drinks a burrito and a sandwich. man bun guy made poor buzz cut guy do all the work on his own, he was standing in the kitchen area, TALKING, doing nothing for like 40 minutes, and the only time he went to seemingly go do something active he actually just went to move the speaker. buzzcut guy was truly TRULY trying his best but he was a little slow, love him down tho. also (bad day ig) they were out of the sweet potatoes which literally MAKES OR BREAKS both the lunch burrito and the helen sandwich the ratio was so odd but it was good anyway. foods awesome, but please i beg don't leave them alone together please read more

terrific environment, cheery staff, nice options for gf muffins. Easy to buy take out items. Moderately priced so plan and budget. They do a sliding scale if you are need and you can ask them about this. Go to their website which clearly outlines all pricing so you can plan. Eating out does take planning these days and is worth the fun and relaxation at this chill, and LGBT and Allied friendly space. Safe, easy handicapped accessible space where you can feel free to spend time reading a book or enjoying the company of a friend in conversation while sampling backed goods and many vegan options. Also note the fascinating crafted drinks including teas, coffees and herbal blends. They do a nice job with main dish gf options in addition to the baked goods. I recommend them for the vibe and quality. read more

Great vibes, great foods. Highly recommended! We did the pre-fixe menu and foods were very tasty.

An "alternative" cafe - vegan/vegetarian & LGBTQ run - with excellent food at affordable prices. Longer wait-times during peak hours, but worth it. Creative interior, + menu pricing structure for folks living on the fringe. I had the breakfast burrito - delicious + innovative, with kelp + adobo sauce. Will return. read more

Really cute little cafe in downtown Troy. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is great.
