Great ambience that's inviting into the store and cafe. Staff is friendly, coffee was tasty. Food options seemed promising too!

I came here a few weekends ago as I was staying in the area, and it was super cute!…read more If you love indie bookstores with the ability to buy coffee, pastries or wine, then you have found your spot! They had a good amount of seating (including both in the coffee area as well as surrounding the books). The service was friendly and they had a really good variety of books to choose from. I'd come here all the time if I lived close by.

I have so many good things to say, where do I even start?!…read more First of all, this book and bar spot is absolutely beautiful. It's located on such a charming street, and stepping inside felt like walking into an elevated Barnes & Noble straight out of a Harry Potter movie. There are endless shelves of books across every genre, cozy seating throughout, and the perfect atmosphere to spend hours browsing or reading. The coffee was just as wonderful as the space. I wasn't sure what to order, so the barista recommended a drink and was incredibly accommodating with my many requests. I can't have too much milk or syrup, so I basically gave them a complicated custom order, and they made it exactly to my liking without hesitation. I also ended up buying one of the chocolate bars they had at the counter and turns out it was $20!!!! As a tourist, I had no idea it was a well known local chocolate brand with a factory nearby, so that was a fun surprise. This is the kind of place that makes you want to slow down. I'd love to come back, grab a coffee, spend the entire afternoon reading, and just soak in the comforting smell of books and fresh coffee. Such a cozy, magical spot that's well worth visiting!

A train buddy of mine recommended this place as a good destination when taking a trip with the…read morewife. He said they had lots of trains, and other things that would appeal to the misses. He was correct on both counts. It took an hour to get here from Albany (actually, a little more because we got lost and our smart phone led us astray) and as we were arriving at lunch time we both hoped that food might have been part of their wares. Sadly, it was not. What we did find was a charming store that seemingly carried everything one could ask for if trapped in a nearby camping area. They had an eclectic selection of nature, history, cooking, an entertainment books; local candles, soaps, and jam; sewing and craft supplies; toys, puzzles, games, and other similar things; car, boat, plane, and R/C plane kits; metal soldiers and castles; chochkes and knickknacks; and they had trains. I took about 45 minutes in the store and believe I saw everything. They didn't excel in one area but had a nice selection of a little bit of everything. Their hardware section was extremely small, and I overheard someone asking for twine which they didn't have (and I thought that was odd). I was hoping to find some old fashioned candy but their sweets selection was limited. I purchased a small soap for my mother but otherwise didn't buy anything except a pastry made nearby at a bakery. But, I came for the trains and they had lots of them. Someone looking for a train set would find a good selection in various scales (N, HO, O, and G) here. Their prices were decent and considering that they were located in the middle of nowhere I think more than fair. Their selection included lots of new, modern trains (meaning, made recently) which surprised me, as well as some old, used trains. They had books, magazines, hats, whistles, and some VHS tapes that likely will be there for eternity. They had a couple of display layouts that hadn't been operated in a while, including one in Z scale which I thought was neat. Sadly, I couldn't find anything I needed. I hate going to a train store, especially one where the proprietor is actually trying to run a nice store, and not buying anything. They had some things that interested me but their prices weren't what I wanted to pay. They had some great prices on things but I didn't need or want them. So, I bought a pastry and left without a train purchase, actually feeling disappointed. It is a cute store. It won't replace the local, well stocked train stores near me but it was a fun destination place. For anyone camping nearby that needed something to keep themselves busy I can imagine this would be a little bit of paradise.

On our visit to Kingston we decided to stop by Hurleys' Country. My husband is a model train…read moreaffectionate, we wouldn't want to miss visiting this store.
