Great coffee- they brew parlor coffee which is genuinely one of the best roasters I know…read more Tried the caprese danish and it tasted as if a pizza and a croissant had a baby so naturally, it was delicious. The tomatoes were ripe, slightly roasted and juicy. I enjoyed every single bite. The service was nice, a little slow, but they do seem to be doing everything in house so that makes sense. The actual café is small but there's a lot of outdoor seating in the alleyway right next-door. Would definitely love to go back and try some other things--they had breakfast sandwiches and other sandwiches to try and I'm sure they're probably really good.

Village Coffee was the best coffee I found in the surrounding area. The espresso is excellent, with…read morereal attention to detail, and the breakfast sandwiches are OUTSTANDING. I went three times during my visit and had a different sandwich two times...both were incredible. I also really loved the music they play, which gives the whole place such a great atmosphere. Village itself has a small amount of seating, while Little Village has much more room to settle in, plus Wi-Fi if you want to stay awhile. Great coffee, great food, great music. I'd absolutely make this a regular stop anytime I'm in Kingston.

The cinnamon sugar hot donuts were definitely the highlight--soft, fluffy, and absolutely worth ordering. From what I noticed, it seems to be a popular spot for tourists, so it had a lively vibe throughout the day.

My wife has found her new absolute favorite bookstore! I think it is an incredibly thought out and…read moreperfectly executed bookstore meets bar meets cafe. We were about an hour away where this is typically around 5 hours away so knew we needed to check it out being so close. Snagged street parking easily and even just the vibes of the outside started off our experience so nicely. Located at what is dubbed Four Corners that is I believe the only remaining intersection in the US that has pre-revolutionary stone houses on all 4 corners. Such an amazing sight to see the old architecture. Rough Draft has utilized the space so perfectly. Worth visiting even if you are looking to just browse. I highly recommend trying a coffee or tea drink to start your day though and a baked good. If those aren't your cup of tea grab a beer or wine then. My wife got an Iced Mocha and loved it. I went with one of their current specials, "I Know What You Did Last S'more". It was so good but was unique compared to a typical s'more coffee drink since it had espresso and smoked black tea. I also had a chocolate croissant while my wife had a maple palmier and we enjoyed both. We snagged some window seats and it was the perfect way to enjoy the drinks and baked goods. My wife loved browsing the books and thought it had so many unique books she hadn't seen at other bookstores. Which it really is more than just a bookstore with the cafe and bar vibes! Highly recommend everyone check it out, if you can. We look forward to coming back!

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!

Also love the iced tea and the apple-turkey-herb mayo wrap or sandwich (literally, I dream about this sandwich).

Little options: no decaf, only one alternative milk choice. I opted for the mocha and I will say it was delicious. I ordered a small and was given a large cup but she explained she ran out of small cups so it's a small size in a large cup. Not an issue, but all of it together left an unpleasant taste. Mocha was yummy, but not sure it was tasty enough for me to return to this unwelcoming space.

Arios Coffeehause is a cute little shop inside the Ball & Claw Antique shop. They have a decent…read moreselection of drinks on their menu, and a small food menu - all very reasonably priced. Their handmade drinks are quite good, and the coffee is well pulled. Strong without any bitterness. I haven't tried the food yet, but they sounded good so I'll have to go back. Oh, there's a bathroom in the antique shop. It's clean. Should I just go around reviewing public bathrooms lol? I was told that you can use the U driveway up front as a kind of drive thru? But there is parking on the antique shop side. It's a great location because you can walk around the shop while you wait for your drink - they have a cool selection if a variety of antiques. The only annoying thing is if you're going southbound, and you want to get back on the southbound side after. That left turn sucks.

Ever since discovering Arios Coffeehaus a few months ago, it has become a staple in my house. The…read morecoffee shop is located inside Ball & Claw Antique Shop and also has its own entrance. For quick in and outs to grab coffee, you can pull into the wrap around driveway, or there is additional parking in the back. Every single drink on the menu is made to perfection and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients used. Some ingredients are made in haus! Anthony is the heart and soul behind the carefully curated Arios Coffeehaus. He is always welcoming and very friendly. We also love when his mom is filling in for him! The vibe is very classy, easy going and makes me feel like I'm in a little Italian cafe. My favorite drink is the midnight coconut. Collectively between myself, my boyfriend, and cousin we have tried every drink on the menu and every one of them hits the spot every time. We love the loyalty cards and make sure we always have ours in the car. This is my favorite coffee spot ever so far. I love the emphasis on local here. You can't help but to be aware of all the love and care that is continually poured into Arios. The key to your success will be to always remember that love and intention are the secret ingredients to anything good in life. Thank you for every wonderful visit!

Kingston Bread+Bar came a long way from their previous spot. Their previous location had its charm,…read morebut this new home on Broadway I feel is way better. This is more inviting, has more personality and just a whole vibe I think. Parking can be a little touchy depending on when you pull up, but once you get inside, you forget all about that. They make all their (and maybe in-house(?)). Beyond the bread, they have shelves with canned goods, fridge stocked with cheeses and other little finds. Kingston B. is like a little neighborhood-market-meets-bread-bar energy. I came in for a bite and somehow left with more than I could chew. I went with the grilled cheese with white cheddar and ricotta pressed between their sourdough bread. Simple on paper, but the flavor was definitely on point. It's creamy, super cheesy, had a freaking terrific melt pull and the bread is crispy where it needed to be. I mean- that bread really brought the whole thing together. Or was it the combo of the cheeses? Definitely not your basic grilled cheese.

They also have lots of vegan options too. Will definitely be back!

A little small inside but there is one large table and a handful of smaller ones - they even have a high chair for the little ones! They have an amazing house made granola - we had it in the yogurt granola bowl which had blueberries and bananas. Delicious. I wanted to buy some granola to take home but they said probably can't do that until the holidays. We also got two breakfast sandwiches on the hard roll (which is actually a soft Kaiser roll). They weren't bad - one came with too much ketchup so I would ask them to hold that next time or just use less. Our friend liked the hot bird sandwich (turkey, bacon, and cheese). Would probably return next time we are in the area!

They also have some picture books to borrow (For the kids) while you wait. And this was a life-saver. We got a Reuben was was pretty good quality. Very thick meat, the saurkraut was great and so was the cheese. But it was so salty, I could only eat half of it. The same goes for the BLT with turkey. The turkey was nicely sliced and the ingredients were all fresh, but it was so salty, I could barely eat it. The bacon very thick, so they put the slices on the side. I like the concept, but too salty for me.
