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 wish they had more separate tables and chairs bc it gets packed but this is a nice place to kill some time, come w ur partner, or just do some work. Their drinks are amazing! If I lived nearby I would come here every week to get their matcha's. Their food is just as good! I LOVE their hand pies!! I have not tried one that wasn't good. Their pastries are good quality too. If you've never been here idk what you're waiting for.

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.

I asked for a bowl and she very abruptly expressed that she was only doing a limited menu today, no bowls. She could make an egg and cheese sandwhich and it would be 10 minutes. I said I was willing to come back and ordered the sandwhich. As I stepped away, I watched the woman behind the counter go back to her phone. No wonder the place is always empty. There was NOTHING welcoming about the experience. If I wasn't so darn hungry, I would have said "forget it." The sandwhich itself was really good, and a great price (compared to the rest of uptown Kingston), which I appreciated. She thanked me for coming back for the sandwhich and that was that. Really too bad the place isn't more welcoming. They'd have more customers from nearby offices, I'm sure.

It's one of the businesses on that stretch of Broadway to endure while others have changed hands. So the other day, I decided to take a peek inside and find out what's for lunch. Chicken Vindaloo. There was also a vegetarian option. Each cost $15. The vindaloo was really delicious. I could smell it as soon as I walked in. The location is both a gift shop/ market and restaurant. There's dry goods and ready-made foods for sale on the shelves as well as brightly hand-painted gifts such as food storage containers and kitchen towels.I bought both as gifts for friends. I also got an order of vindaloo to eat-in along with unsweetened ice tea. The meal was delicious. The business owner is gracious and helpful. Her ready-made lunches are served in what look to be attractive eco- friendly paper containers. When I let her know that I couldn't finish my meal, she smiled and said," I'll give you a cover for the container so you can take it home." The cover fit perfectly and was secure. I let her know that I'd be returning for lunch and shopping another time.

Moonrise Bagels' Kingston NY location is located within a little blue building on Broadway. It's…read morecute. Because of the size of the place, it is limited to take out only. Moonrise's claim to fame is their stuffed bagel. I'll attach a picture because it's easier to show rather than explain it. It must have taken quite a long time to figure out the boil/bake time for this creation. It works. The bagel is thoroughly cooked and the contents, in my case, scrambled eggs, sausage and cheese, were heated through but not overdone. Since the items are premade, the choices for your bagel are limited to Everything or Plain. The bagel also comes with a mayo/mustard sauce on the side, which seemed a tad too aggressive for my palate. The business seemed to have a steady stream of customers while I was there.
