As someone who reviews coffee establishments, this place was HIGHLY recommended to me on a visit to…read moreRochester. My boyfriend and I recently tried out Working Class Coffee and loved the rustic vibe of the location as well as the choice in decor, music, and food. I have Celiac Disease so I was unable to try any of their food - but my boyfriend who is NOT celiac was able to try one of their breakfast sandwiches. Even upon returning home to Boston, he still thoroughly misses this breakfast sandwich and recommends it to friends who still live in Rochester, For coffee, I had a coconut latte with housemade syrups, which was incredible. My boyfriend got a mocha which he also enjoyed and rated a 7/10. I would rate my latte a 9/10. If you're in Canandaigua or Rochester, this place is worth a visit. It easily makes my best coffee places list for the area.

The food was good too, but pricey for the portion size. They have gluten free bread available, as well as a chia pudding menu option for those with gluten allergies.

We were in Canandaigua visiting family, up early, and craving coffee and breakfast. Kershaw's was…read moreright by our hotel, and we could smell the thick bacon from the street, in all the best ways possible. The barista was kind and patient, walking us through all the drink options. They have a great selection, and everything felt crafted with care. We ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel and a soft egg and cheese on a croissant. Both were delicious, hearty, and full of true New York vibes. The café itself feels vibrant and young, the kind of spot that buzzes with easy energy but still feels like a neighborhood coffee shop. It's on a charming street beside a pizza place, and the view right outside looks over a portion of Canandaigua Lake. You truly can't beat that on a crisp autumn morning. A perfect start to the day, great coffee, great food, and small town warmth.

I went in to reorder and make sure the delivery order was canceled. Steve was super nice and apologized and said to call him if I didn't get a refund explaining they don't deliver . Ok fine so I sit down to eat and my coffee is iced but I ordered a hot latte and it's on my receipt. And my egg croissant is burned! I go back in and Steve was again very nice and gave me a hot latte and a new sandwich. The owner came out and I said if you don't deliver you should fix your website. She insisted I ordered on door dash . I go on my phone to pull up her website and she starts yelling at me to stop pointing my finger in her face ! I was holding my phone and still looking for her website! I never pointed at her ! She's screaming now and pointing in my face! I run behind my daughter and she screams and points in my daughter's face ! What a lunatic! We ran out with her yelling that I am a horrible person! The store was full of customers! So bizarre ! And why after 7 door dash drivers show up don't you call me ? Steve had my name and phone number ! He knew my name right away when I told him my order was canceled! If you go on their website it looks like they can deliver!!!

What an amazing place to spend your time. This beautiful…read morecafe (located in the heart of Canandaigua) is run by the Ontario County Arc and employs individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. The goal is to teach individuals life skills while serving up yummy drinks. My boyfriend and I tried out North Star Cafe before heading back to Boston and fell in love with the people, the space, and our drinks. The barista we had was honest and didn't hesitate at all in critiquing every flavor choice on the menu which my boyfriend and I appreciated! We knew we were in great hands when he recommended and made us what he loves most on the menu. I got a coconut/white chocolate mocha and my boyfriend got a classic mocha - both iced with whole milk. We both love almond milk, but the barista we had that morning said we simply could not ruin his drinks with almond milk... so whole milk it was! Honestly, this cafe is amazing and I wish we still lived in Rochester so I could frequent more often. However, it is a great place to visit when we're in town!

Coffee Cures Everything is a cute little side of the road coffee kiosk in Canandaigua, NY. There is…read moreno indoor space for ordering or lounging, so drive through service only. The gentleman working the kiosk was very cordial and friendly, explaining that they source all their ingredients locally. I decided to go with an iced white chocolate mocha, which I asked to be made slightly less sweet. The drink was decent, but a bit too sweet with an artificially sweetened syrupy taste which superior coffee places generally do not have in their drinks. While I'd rate the drink a 3.5/5 at best and probably wouldn't return, don't mind rounding up for the friendly service from this small business.

My mom and my brother had an appointment in downtown Canandaigua when I was home visiting a couple…read moreweeks ago. My mom said "walk around downtown and take some pics" I did that. as I was doing that I came across this little bakery. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE LOVE local bakeries vs buying the processed crap at the stores or buying things at Wegmans, Albertsons, etc bakeries where they no longer bake at the actual stores anymore. Thats just sad. Anyway, I walked in here. The lady was nice. She seemed a little sketched out though for some reason, but super kick back at the same time if that makes sense? lol Anyway, told her I was just checking things out and I would let her know if I needed anything. She came back out from the front and asked again if I needed anything. So, I got a blueberry muffin. I LOVE blueberry muffins, but I never buy them anymore bc I no longer eat most things like that. It's a sad, lonely choice I made....to cut out all the tasty treats in the world lol NOT THIS DAY THO!! haha! I could not resist. The looked incredible and for $2 a piece being as big as they were...I had to. UNBELIEVABLY delicious. I was so happy I got it. Was so tempted to get a few other things, but Ive been so good with my diet...I had to refrain from doing so and just accept my boring, no sugar treats, kind of life lol I absolutely recommend this place. Prices are decent, the lady is nice, but she should realize that not all of us are bad :) The place itself is super cute, very homey, lots to look at and HEY! its a local bakery! You should always support places like this...over Wegmans and certainly over....ugh Walmart! Thanks for reading, Yelpers! Cheers!

I am a cake connoisseur. I test cakes from many bakeries and compare the taste and texture…read more I am not as concerned with decoration or presentation, although an attractive cake is nice to have. It is very unfortunate that the old ethnic bakeries have gone away and replaced primarily by grocery stores. It appears that the children of the old ethnic bakeries saw how hard their parents worked and decided to become doctors and lawyers and such. The delicious cakes of our long ago memories are gone. I visit a lot of new bakeries trying to relive my past memories. It appears that most of these new bakeries utilize standard cake mixes available from a variety of sources. They may add an ingredient of two to try to make it taste more homemade, but they all fail my taste and texture tests. Most are light and fluffy cake with average icing. They do look good however, but that is not what I look for. I look for taste and texture. I was very pleasantly surprised with our recent visit to Sweet Solutions on Main Street in Canandaigua. I ordered two large cakes for a corporate event. One was Vanilla/Vanilla and the other was Triple Chocolate. WOW ! Both cakes were exceptional in both taste and texture. They looked great too. Both cakes were devoured by the 45 people in attendance. Sweet Solutions mentioned that each cake would serve about 40 people. They must serve small slices. Our guests had two and three helpings apiece. Everyone raved on how great the cakes were. I personally had three pieces (large by the way) and would have had more the next day if any were available. The visit to Sweet Solutions took me back to the 60's and 70's when Shreck's and Vecchi's bakeries in Canandaigua when I was a child. Both were exceptional bakeries that were local institutions. There are a few bakeries in Rochester, NY who make some nice cakes but they are not as good as Sweet Solutions in Canandaigua, NY. My wife is ordering another today ! I am overjoyed to finally find a bakery that can meet my high standards. I can honestly say that Sweet Solutions is the best in the greater Rochester area. Thanks for reading.
