    Love this Café! Very friendly staff. Food and drinks are absolutely delicious and I love going there to do some homework. "Melt my heart mocha" with heart sprinkles is definitely my favorite drink there!

    It's been awhile since I have been there but I really enjoy their coffee. And the relaxing friendly environment is also great.

    A really cute and clean place. I got an egg salad sandwich and it was delicious and prepared fast.

    We stopped here on a long car ride from Rochester to Virginia. We will be stopping again next…read moretime! It was worth it to get off the beaten path (for a very little bit, in the scheme of things) to eat here. We were disappointed we'd already had too much coffee for the day because it all looked so good. The service was a little blah but I'm okay with that, as long as the food is good. Took a while to make our sandwiches, but it was a bit early in the day (11:15 a.m.) and it gave us time to use the (clean) restrooms and look around the cute little place. I had the chicken Caesar wrap - HUGE amount of greens and some chicken (maybe not enough for some) and - get this - croutons(!!) in there, all with a great-tasting but not overly done dressing. It was so big it was shareable. But I managed to eat the whole thing. Couldn't have done any better on that wrap!! It came with chips and a really good pickle spear too! My hubby had the EBLT. SO huge. Not the easiest to eat while driving haha but an amazing sauce on there that just MADE the sandwich so much better than a boring BLT, even with an egg on it. Sure wish we had this little gem closer to us! Great little downtown vibe and quaint area. Next time, we won't skip the coffee, no matter how much we've had already!

    I have been coming to this place for a long time and, until today, had no complaints…read more Today I brought in a coffee from the coffee shop down the street, thinking nothing of it. In fact, I thought that a place called "The Kind Cafe" might appreciate someone supporting another local business. Instead, I was told to cover up my coffee with a sleeve. It struck me as a very odd request, but I complied anyway. After that, the experience became increasingly uncomfortable. I overheard the barista making comments to other customers such as, "Thanks for choosing our place for your drink order." Given the context, it felt very clearly directed at me. The comment was made publicly, in front of other customers, and came across as an attempt to shame me for bringing in a coffee from somewhere else. Then he asked me what kind of drink I had gotten. After I answered, he responded, "Oh, I thought it was something special," with a tone that felt sarcastic and dismissive. At that point, I asked him directly whether I had offended him by bringing in a coffee from another business. He told me that outside drinks were not allowed but delivered the message with an attitude that felt unnecessarily hostile. I explained that I had never been informed of this policy and genuinely did not know. I also told him that I felt he was trying to make me feel bad about it. His response was essentially, "I wasn't trying to make you feel bad, but whatever." The policy itself is not the issue. Had someone politely informed me that outside drinks were not allowed, I would have respected that immediately. What bothered me was being publicly embarrassed and treated with passive-aggressive disrespect over what was clearly an innocent mistake. I've been a regular customer for years and order from this place nearly every week. This was the first time I had ever brought in a coffee from somewhere else. Being treated this way by both the owner and the main barista was disappointing and completely at odds with the values this business claims to represent. For a place that calls itself "The Kind Cafe," this was one of the least kind customer interactions I've experienced in a long time. Perhaps this is an opportunity for some reflection on what kindness actually feels like from the customer's side of the counter.

    If I could give 6 stars I would. I'm a coffee snob. I say this not to brag, but rather to provide…read morecontext. I've spent a ton of time in serious coffee shops from Shanghai to New York with Q graders and baristas with bonafides. Alabaster can stand up to the best of them. The coffees we tried were fantastic. The Rwandan was delicious and the roast complimented the natural expression of the beans. My dad got the Ugandan which was awesome as well. I grabbed a bag of the Salvadoran beans to take home, and it brews up an amazingly clean and interesting cup (I used a V60). One of the better cafes I've visited in the U.S. with a roaster that knows what they're doing. On top of all that, the tahini date banana bread we tried was seriously good and wasn't a premade, mass produced baked good like so many cafes have resorted to in recent years. On top of that, the cafe was beautiful with reclaimed wood tables. We were traveling with our dog and they allowed her in because she was well-behaved. Nice people, awesome cafe, world-class coffee, and seriously good pastries. Keep up the incredible work! I will be back to Williamsport for more.

    Alabaster Coffee Roaster and Tea Company had a spacious and warm atmosphere…read more The tables were on the smaller side, but they were easy to move. There were plenty of outlets along the walls, which made it relatively easy to study. There was a lot of foot traffic, but the overall ambiance did not get too rowdy, providing pleasant white noise. There were a few seasonal specials, but otherwise the selection was not very large. The tea selection was rather small, especially considering it is part of their name. Drinks came out extremely quickly. There was a dish tub near the entrance to drop items off after finishing. I tried their seasonal egg nog cappuccino, and it came out lightly warm. The egg foam was not overwhelming and the spiced notes were well incorporated into the drink. It was not too sweet and gave me a pleasant buzz. I hope to see more diverse tea options in the future, but the overall feel and quality of this cafe were great.
