    I am just in love with this place! The baristas are always so nice and such a beautiful environment. The drinks and food were also delicious and fairly priced - unlike most cafes these days! What really gets me though is the art collection - it is seriously floor to ceiling, so much to look at. I have tried all of the cafes in the area and I keep finding myself here. I think I have a favorite!

    My favorite cafe to go to in roc! The atmosphere is so cozy and welcoming. Their drinks are great and the service is as well. The only complaint I have is that their cookies are not the best, but I believe they get them from another place locally.

    I was in the mood for a pastry and coffee and came here. The setting with some tables, a counter against the wall, draperies, photos & paintings creates an appealing ambiance to sit and chat with a bunch of friends or just sit quietly to sip and eat your meal. It has an ample menu of cocktails, sandwiches, and a few pastries, coffee, tea. I really liked it.

    Came here on a Saturday so it was super crowded but there was a lot of seating both inside and outdoors. Wanted to get a bagel but it was a 30 minute wait so I got a pistachio muffin which was great. They have both coffee and cocktails and overall it's a very cozy, artsy vibe. There is no public wifi which is the main downside if you're looking for a study spot

    Iced mocha

    Cute cafe on Park Ave! Came here around lunch time on a weekday and luckily it wasn't too busy when we we got there! I love all of the art inside. They have seating inside as well. I got the Presto Pesto with a side salad (+$1) and an iced mocha. I thought the mocha was okay, and I enjoyed my food. I think this is a cute place and a great place to meet up with friends or get some work done.

    Okay let me start by saying Cafe sasso is a legit coffee joint in the grand ol city of rochacha! A real Funky joint, artsy, classy, open-minded flare! They Gita great coffee/tea/paninis/cocktails/muffins/pastries et Al....如果你有空的话,你一定要来这里尝试一,尤其是因为你绝对不会后悔的!哈哈哈哈哈哈 git er done! I luv this joint, I used to come here a lot back in the day, great place to come and get a nice cup of Joe and just really chill out! Hahah enjoy it! Now how did this place get their name? I just found this out.....so this joint used to be boulder coffee like 7,8 years ago. and the word "sasso" means "stone" in Italian. So essentially cafe sasso is like the "little boulder"'coffee shop Hahhahaha like the "sasso" took the place of the really big "sasso" the boulder, after boulder coffee closed! Isn't this place nuts! Hahahhah But it is way cool!

    Good spot for a latte & reading

    I went in while visit Rochester and needed a spot to kill an hour and wake up with a coffee. I ordered a iced latte with oat milk & amaretto which was a great choice. Would recommend to anyone looking for coffee!

    Mango Smoothie
    Molly R.

    6/5 stars. My favorite cafe in Rochester. The staff is friendly and work diligently to get all orders in. The cafe is decorated so fun and there are lots of unique places to sit. I loved to study here throughout college. The coffee is wonderful, as well as the specialty coffees. When I'm in need of a non caffeinated drink the mango smoothie is super refreshing. The best part is the number of gluten free items (sandwiches in particular) that are made GF without an up charge.

    Excellent little coffee shop. It's not huge so seating inside can be a little tight, but there is additional seating outside. I try to time my visits for when it's a little slow as I to get some writing done while having my coffee. It's not the most ideal coffee shop to work from, but it's possible during slower hours. The coffee is delicious. So far all the food I've tried has been amazing. Really, this is a place you visit to have a chat with friends or a meal. Or liquor if that's your thing. Parking is 95% street parking, which can be limited to an hour.

    Perfect little spot on Park Avenue. Come for coffee in the morning stay for drinks in the afternoon. You'll feel like you're sitting in an art gallery! Lovely sitting inside or out. Service is fast and friendly. Coffee is served piping hot!

    Had some time to kill before the shows tonight at Comedy at the Carlson so I popped into this cozy joint to write some jokes. This place is really nice. Lots of cool art on the wall and the couch is comfy! There's a giant peace sign out front so if you like your coffee shops with a bit of war this place is not for you. They have cocktails too but I didn't get one because ol' Dusty has a little bit of a drinking problem hahaha (seriously) but I'm sure they're great. Nice baristas. Nice coffee. Five stars!

We're not that picky so we chose to drink them as is Instead of bother staff but I'm sure they would have helped fix it if asked. The lattes were very pretty and tasty. The mocha has a soft chocolate flavor which I prefer. Cookie my son got was great as well. They have a little shop area which I also enjoyed browsing. Bathroom is really nice BUT no changing station unless they want to count the wooden decorative table. Don't tempt me I'll use it Justice for parents just trying to exist in public spaces with their children! Overall I did really enjoy our stop in today!

This visit wasn't quite at that same level, but I still enjoyed the experience overall. This time, I ordered a hot caramel latte and a rosemary brown sugar latte. The presentation was fine, and the café itself is aesthetically pleasing. I especially enjoyed the lower level filled with hanging plants, which creates a relaxing, zen atmosphere that's perfect for studying, reading, or catching up with friends. The cashier was friendly and accommodating, and the café was very clean overall. My only criticism was with the drink preparation. While we were waiting, it seemed like the espresso and milk were ready, but the drinks sat for a few minutes while conversations continued behind the counter before they were finished. As a result, the coffee wasn't as hot as it could have been by the time we received it. I was also a little disappointed with the rosemary brown sugar latte. I was really looking forward to that flavor combination, but I could barely taste either the rosemary or the brown sugar. It felt like there was only a hint of the flavoring, so the drink came across more like a regular latte than the specialty drink I had ordered. Overall, I would definitely come back because I know how great Hydra Coffee can be. My first visit was outstanding, and I know they're capable of making exceptional coffee. The atmosphere is relaxing, the staff is friendly, and I appreciate the unique drink menu. I'm hoping this visit was just an off day because I look forward to giving them another try.
