    Coffee and book

    Cute coffee shop with ample indoor and outdoor seating. They have many coffee and food options, free wifi, and a welcoming atmosphere. The people who work here are kind, courteous, and make your order quickly. I would highly recommend this coffee shop.

    Fantastic locally-owned coffee house, serving delicious breakfast, lunch, and coffee in a cozy welcoming space. Highly recommend stopping in for pleasure or for work. Great internet. Don't miss it!!

    the entrance to the cafe

    The coffee tastes pretty good. I ordered their brewed coffee. (The low stars are due to the lack of customer service from the staff) Upon walking into the spot, a blonde haired lady with nose ring looked directly at me, didn't speak, and began vaping behind the line where the coffee, drinks, and food were to be made. Another female barista was making drinks looked at me, but never spoke. Finally, a third employee saw me, spoke and said she would be right with me. She was kind enough to wash her hands before taking my order. I have never been here before and told her this as I looked over the menu. They were out of the juices (e.g. Apple & orange), which is what I wanted to add to my order. I had to look over the menu again to find something else. (I like to support small businesses and wanted to purchase something before leaving). The friendliness of the crew left a lot to be desired. I was never thanked or asked to come back again. When in the area again, I will give my $ to other establishments that show appreciation to their patrons.

    Best coffee shop in Albany hands down!!! Artists at work! Free WiFi and room to work while you enjoy a meal or beverage. Once you come here you won't go to that chain place that starts with a "S."

    Vanilla Iced Latte

    If you want friendly and quick service for coffee in Albany this is your place. I decided to get a vanilla iced latte since I needed something quick and simple. The drink had more of a caramel taste than vanilla but it was overall still great iced latte! I always enjoy trying local coffee shops instead of stopping by Starbucks for drinks and I must say they always are so much better!

    Elements is a nice, relaxing place that now serves beer. The patio is a great place to chill on a cool day and coffee is great when It's cold. They have delicious smoothies and frappucinos for the summer when it is unbearably hot, too! Maybe you are just a little hungry. They have pastries and sandwiches to quell the hunger and a reading corner to enjoy it. Elements is a locally-owned coffee shop that you should give a try.

    Came home to visit for the weekend. Before I left Albany, King's Deli was one of the best wing…read morespots in the city. Wings were a full-sized normal wing. Now I'm not sure what the hell happened to where as they think it's acceptable to sell a chicken wing smaller than a bird's dick.

    May 25, 2018 First of all the phone is always busy and I…read morethought it was due to being busy and all, NO. I called them trying to place a to go order and the phone was busy. When I got there no one was on the phone so it was my turn to order I took my cell phone dialed the business number and put it on speaker and told the cashier that the phone is off the hook and put my speaker food on so she can't deny it, so apparently they tale the phone off the hook to avoid taking to go orders. I called them at least 15 times during the course of my 20 drive to the restaurant. Then I tell them the phone off the hook they just looks at me. They didn't apologize or even come up with some lame ass excuse!!!! Then I noticed they was having issues with the credit card machine ( as usual) so I asked before I ordered. The cook was like "yeah it's tripping right now" I turned around and walk way. Went down the street to Good Times. I received better service, good food at a cheaper price! I supported Kings Diner for a long time, 2 years or more but they've lost my business permanently. The food is good but the service is horrible so that makes it all NOT WORTH IT! Even the cashier at Good Times said verbatim " The service at Kings Diner is horrible". I personally think the owner or management need to fire all those ghetto hood rats and get New help. Horrible services is a business killer. Really my experience they deserve 1 Star the ONLY reason why they have 2 Stars is because the food is good

It had been out of date since January 2025. I was visiting in August 2025. They have a known habit of taking bad meat and covering it in butt rubb before rewrapping it. The management in store is also very very poor. The country store road location posted a hiring sign, I called and was told over the phone "OK call me Monday and we will get you in the system and go from there", then the manager blocked my number and ghosted me. I have 24 years of experience in grocery stores specifically, so their is definitely something not kosher in why he suddenly changed his mind, especially given his comments about "the kind of people who work at Pic N Sav." (my previous employer) Not a healthy attitude to have as a supposed member of leadership, and telling about why mike's is in such bad shape that Mike Rogers has tried to sell two of his stores in the last year to his competition.
