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.

I enjoyed an attractive cortado and am looking forward to tasting a locally made cranberry orange walnut breakfast cookie that I brought home to share with my wife. Did I mention that the cookie is gluten free? Future plans for the coffee shop include rehabbing the backroom to provide a great place to relax while enjoying your coffee concoction. Service is friendly and street parking is easy; there is even a bus stop across the street.

I ordered a matcha, lightly sweetened, and a bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was perfect; not greasy and the perfect texture. I love their pickled zucchini which adds the perfect little crunch. Their garden patio is so cute and would be a great space for an event. I can't wait to come back again soon.

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.

Enjoyed the vibe of video game tables and a bar setting. Did not joy the fact that my table was smeared with food from the last customer. Would return. Coffee was hot and they had lots of plant based milks to choose from. Wish they had a vegan pastry choice in their display case. I'm grateful that this cafe exists. Liked the oatmeal with choices of toppings but serving size was slightly small.

They have Wi-Fi and really nice vibes. Pro tip: They have a point system, so don't forget to ask about it!

My wife and I would stop by every week just before going to the farmers market and I can say the Greg is one of the better breakfast sandwiches around Troy.
