The sitting space if I'm being honest is kind of tight with chairs backed up against the display divider for the line/counter ordering area. The benches up against the wall opposite counter are beautiful and force good posture. There were also some window spots I'd definitely aim for next time. The counter person was delightful no complaints. Explained the drinks and didn't rush us. We came later morning on Saturday, most of the bakery items were sold out. But what we got was amazing, a nice mixture of scones, perfection. I appreciated the mixture of small morsels, it included flavors that I would not have tried otherwise. I got a cream brûlée latte as suggested classic with a hint of sweetness, standard with double shot of espresso. My wife got a mocha variety definitely much richer. The art on top was also a nice highlight. As other reviews mentioned prices were not listed but this is definitely a specialty place so expect a higher price than a pump your own coffee express station. But also I rather give my money to a local place than a huge mass marketed place thats serving half the quality.

Alias Coffee partnered with 518 Craft and Primobotanica to open up in a shared space in downtown Troy, NY initially during covid. With good coffee and service, I'm sure they will have a successful future. I'm not a coffee drinker, but I do taste it so as part of the yelp experience, community CO was thoughtful enough to partner with a small and upcoming local coffee shop on National coffee day and get us in for a cup of coffee. I asked the Barsita to make me the best drink from the available choices and was given a Cappuccino, which I took a sip and handed it to my dad. My dad did say the coffee was good and from my tasting experience, the coffee was smooth and had a bitter after taste (like a few people I know like it that way) and the taske kept lingering fir an hour. Go get your coffee, this is in a neighborhood that requires revitalization, there have been some good initiatives and us as a community can help support them.

Service is friendly and street parking is easy; there is even a bus stop across the street.

I found this sweet gem on Yelp while looking for a coffee spot while visiting Troy for the first time. WHAT A FIND. I absolutely love all the outdoor possibilities you have. From working/dining out front by the street with plenty of tables, chairs and just a chill little vibe if you want the street action mixed with a bit of people watching and enjoying the outdoors. If you're like me today, I chose the backyard solarium area to get some work done and grab a bite. It's so ZEN and I'm just obsessed with the plants and just the whole relaxing atmosphere. WHAT A FIND. Perfect place to grab lunch, catch up with a friend, do a work meeting, coffee date, really anything!

Having only been in once I have a limited view of the menu, but what I did have was great. The coffee was freshly brewed, a delicious, recently roasted, Costa Rican Tarrazu. It was complimented by a wamred brownie. The owner, Niek, was a joy to talk to. He is clearly someone passionate not only about what he does at the cafe, but about the local community. Mojo is a great cafe offering something unique and special to the area that is absolutely worth stopping in to.
