I was super excited when I realized most of this place is vegan, but was disappointed by flavor. The mocha was okay but lacked significant flavor and the vanilla bean latte must have had actual beans used because it was also lacking flavor but had a mysterious crunch. It's a cute place, though, and maybe other items taste better....

Vegetarians rejoice!…read more Where do I start? How about with the best damn sandwich I've had in years. This place was recommended to us, as my wife and I are vegetarians. I ordered the Fontina Panino (vegan sausage, fontina cheese, arugula and fennel mustard on ciabatta) and a cortado to drink. We take out seat in the very cool back room, and only after 5 or so minutes the drink and food arrives. Now I am a complete foodie, really tough on everything I eat, but after one bite I was in love. To the point where I asked Lauren, the owner, what mustard they were using, and then ordered a panini press when I got home hoping to recreate the magic. Perfectly chewy bread, just the right balance of sweet and savory, and that mustard. Truly amazing. My wife ordered the avocado toast which she said was perfection. I wish I could bundle this place up and ship it to New Haven because I'd be eating one of those sandwiches every week. As for everything else: The service was great. The atmosphere laid back and funky. Everything was reasonable priced. LOVE LOVE LOVE Cafe Joust!

When they advertised homemade baked goods, they were understating. Man, this place is a gem. I had the breakfast sandwich which was melt-in-your mouth, off the charts, eye-rolling good. The herb mayo? Holy cow! Hubby ordered the breakfast burrito and he said that it was the best he'd ever eaten. We were in the Catskills, so we had to have a decent bagel, and the gluttony was excused because we knew we weren't going to have the real thing again. We walked away fat, full, and happy! Service? Amazing. Ambience? Charming. Clean. Delightful.

Yummy and not overwhelmingly sweet which seems to be the trend. But what stood out was their version of a Macchiato I got. It was strong, rich and not milky! It was on the smaller side, but the barista named Lauren, nailed it! She was quite friendly and pleasant as well. The other barista whom I did not catch her name was friendly and very nice. The both of them made for such a nice coffee break as I just had a beer prior. The ambiance was antique and modern with a cool poem stash on the bay window that gave a nice touch of reading pleasure and the seating which was intimate and close. Not a big place but organized well. Lighting was more natural lighting which was really nice. I love great coffee and if you are looking for a nice cup of some and some good cake to go along with it, this is where to go. Thank you for an awesome experience.

I decided to try some of the different truffles they had, including the Raspberry Jelly, Tahini Lime, PB & J and Passionfruit Vanilla. I also ordered the Mocha Latte. Everything was incredible! The truffles were out of this world good and the flavors were spot on. The latte was also the perfect cross between espresso and hot chocolate. The service was fast and friendly, and the shop is so cute. I highly recommend ordering a drink and enjoying it in the shop!

It was self service at the counter. We were disappointed that the onion rings were only offered on certain days but we were able to get some pretzels and beers. I do like that you can order a half pour/small glass to try different beers. I liked the Heritage grape ale framhouse beer a lot but also unfortunately they did not carry them in cans to take away. Nice place to chill for a while if you're in the catskills!

Nobody knows how to run the machines and by the time you get your shit I'm pissed off and you don't want it and you want your money back and sometimes you just walk out and don't get your money back. I've been there twice and twice it was just like that I was with someone and they stopped me. I'm letting them get away with my money. I didn't have homegirl with me today, but I got my money but I didn't get actually what I wanted. Don't go there if you want good cappuccinos or mocha lattes or whatever I know one that I can get good hot coffee from and it's good so but that one sucks I wouldn't give it to my enemy. Hopefully you get more responsible workers that know what they're doing. Know how to work a machine and you ain't gotta wait 10 or 20 minutes for iced coffee or iced coffee with something else that you wanted it that they don't know where it is or how to mix it into the coffee. That's a whole bunch of stuff too much too old for that bullshit y'all have a good day.
