    Chicken & Waffle
    Louie T.

    Stumbled upon this gem randomly. Bc the original breakfast spot I was planing on going for my weekend trip wasn't open yet. And glad it wasn't ,bc BVC was amazing. Food was great, Coffee was great and the Service was great. The food was just perfect sized for the price and delicious.

    BV latte
    Danilda S.

    Quiet, we had a great time celebrating a birthdayna Friday Morning. Their specialty drinks were full of flavor and the food was just as good, everyone in the group was raving about their drinks. I tried the BV latte and the Chai , both were great. The avocado toast was amazing a must try. The b'day girl received a free drink, that was super nice of the staff.I'm waiting for the next visit to try something else.

    Boba gives this place 5 PAWS!!

    I wish this place had longer hours! Gem of a cafe in Newburgh.. the food is absolutely delicious, with vegetarian options that don't feel like an afterthought, breakfast here is scrumptious! Sitting at one of their rustic picnic tables with my dog, stuffing my face with a portobello BLT -- they even roasted up some chicken breast for Boba, who enthusiastically rates this place 5 PAWS!

    Shrimp and grits

    Food was good. Service was amazing. Great atmosphere great vibes. I highly recommend.

    Perfectly balanced pomegranate lemonade.

    Only fantastic biscuit in town. Everything was great as was the staff. We had the egg and sausage biscuit sandwich and house breakfast sandwich. There is a genius behind their mix of drinks-- for example the lemonade pomegranate drink and the house latte. espresso/ chocolate mocha/ white mocha. Sweet but balanced. Nicely decorated--- trendy couch small lounge area with surrounding tables. And modern art by black artists. Go here!

    Matcha latte
    Veronica M.

    Such a local love you can see that the community really supports this location. But that being said they are very welcoming to visitors and first timers. I've been twice and have enjoyed the regular latter and the matcha latte. The girls I was with both got bagel sandwiches and said they were very good

    Shrimp and grits - with a few bites already gone ;) very good!!

    Super impressed with Blacc Vanilla Cafe! Stopped in yesterday for a coffee, chia and a corn muffin, and saw the rest of their menu so decided we had to come back today for breakfast and I'm glad we did! The service was great and everything was delicious! I got the shrimp and grits and was not disappointed!! Next I want to try their Buffalo Mac and cheese! All the food I saw at other tables looked amazing too! This is a great local find!

    Already a fan of Big Mouth in Beacon but this location in Newburgh is even better!…read more Not only does it stand on its own in an old gas station now turned into a cool, hip, space - but they also have a seating area that in the warmer months they open up the "garage/mechanic shop" door and it's its own thing. Private events here also HIT. The space can turn into anything you want. The layout of the coffee shop is a bit funky but it's exactly what gives it character. The chocolate croissants here area MUST but word on the street is their almond croissants are even better. I wasn't able to try them since by the time we came here they were sold out but we really enjoyed our drinks, croissants and danishes. Using top of the line La Marzocco to make you the perfect espresso drink, you can choose from cappuccino to latte, to flat white. I got the flat white with macadamia nut milk and lavender syrup served in glass and it was absolutely delicious. The cool thing is you get to sit right in the room where the magic happens: the roasting. The plants give it the right touch and it's the perfect space to come and get some work done while you sip on some delicious coffee.

I stopped in during a walk down Main Street and immediately loved the vibe. The space has that minimalist-yet-cozy aesthetic: clean lines, soft natural light, and the comforting smell of freshly roasted coffee beans in the air. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel like you could sit for hours and unwind. I ordered the lavender latte, and it was perfection. Smooth espresso, just the right touch of floral sweetness -- not overpowering, just beautifully balanced. It's officially my go-to whenever I'm in town. The staff was super friendly and clearly passionate about what they do, which makes the experience even better. Between the atmosphere, quality coffee, and the charm of Beacon itself, Big Mouth has easily become one of my favorite stops in the Hudson Valley.

I got the Iced Vanilla Latte which was fine and did the job. The espresso was extracted well, it was bold, and not overly intense. The vanilla was barely palpable as I didn't taste that sweetness I was looking for. I'd probably stick to some classic menu items rather than anything with an add-on. Decent try!

I was craving something hearty and healthy so naturally, I went for the pearly bowl which originally comes with couscous, roasted cauliflower, golden raisins (trust me these add THEEEE touch), pickled red onions (YUM), tahini sauce, avocado, and a lemon-mint vinaigrette - THISSSSSS. I ended up substituting the couscous for quinoa which was perfect for the type of meal I wanted before traveling. Can we talk about that lemon-mint vinaigrette? It's perfectly green and brings the whole bowl together, SO GOOD. Wish I would've gotten a whole side of that. Ordering delivery through Yelp is so easy thanks to DoorDash and I was so thankful I didn't have to be stuck eating chips and m&ms - love these but I needed a little something more.

Also, the music was so on point. Just tied together a wonderful experience.
