This place is a GEM! Love the staff, super friendly and suggest good replacements if things get sold out (and they do)! The interior is communal and I'm here for it! Also, big comfy chairs in a corner. The food Slaps! Lentils - 5 out of 5! Bagel - 5 out of 5! Lattes were so good just needed to be hotter. read more

Just went there for the first time last weekend. What a super cute place. loved the vibe and warmth inside. Tons of parking, even in winter. Staff was super helpful and friendly, and got my drink quickly. Lots of people hanging out, and I got mine to go, so I didn't have a lot of opportunity to explore, but I will definitely be back. Great coffee, and great vibe! read more

Good ambiance. It used to be they serve drip coffee late but now they switch over to espresso only unfortunately. Service seemingly down a bit too, had a woman make me an espresso drink then turn her back to me to clean things while the drank sat there on the espresso machine read more

Cute place with a lot of seating; space in the back has video games, too! Menu looks great and they have a small selection of treats--cookies and croissants, oh my! The matcha was the right color and tasted great, even without flavor. Which means it was mixed properly and quality matcha was used. Loved this and I will return. read more

We came here for breakfast this morning. Camp Kingston is nestled within the town and you have a wave of the regular and out of towners. I had a veggies burrito with the green salsa and sour cream. My food was fresh, really hot from after it was done being pressed. Both sauces worked with my veggies burrito. Cardamom Chai Tea latte was okay too. One of the popular food items u ordered it, he said it was delicious and would order again. In Camp Kingston, there is plenty of space to dine in. Towards the back, there is a mess hall, one of the rooms was small, chill vibe and had some small chairs and some arcades and games displayed. Menu items are clear, other items are snacks on the go. There's a shelf towards the mess with other items available. All payments accepted, parking can be tight outside however is doable. Staff is friendly, service is good, see you next time. read more

Love Camp Kingston for the coffee and the vibes! It's very shared work space friendly up in the front room but there are also two rooms in the back with arcade games and pool table. Something for everyone for sure! A few outdoor tables as well. Their matcha is my favorite in Kingston (and only $5 for a latte!). I've never had any food items aside from the pastry case (including Balthazar and little rye bake house) but my partner swears by their breakfast burrito. Feels very local friendly with the staff remembering peoples names as they filter in and out. Highly recommend! read more

Camp Kingston - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Kingston, New York

My colleague and I were looking for a place to do some work after wrapping up a meeting. I stumbled across Camp Kingston. I liked the theme of the restaurant, and it looked like they had a nice snack and lunch menu. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in. We arrived at around 11:30 and there was a handful of people in the main room that they call the mess hall. I ordered a chai latte and a cinnamon roll. My coworker got the mocha hot coffee with a chocolate croissant. The waitress was very helpful and polite. My chai was delicious savory and the cinnamon roll was also really tasty. Unfortunately, they weren't able to warm it for me before enjoying it. After I went to the restroom, I noticed that there were two other rooms where guests can eat, work, or have meetings with one another at the restaurant. Very nice sized establishment. This is definitely great place to gather with coworkers or friends. The bathrooms were really cute as they went along with the camp theme, and they also had one restroom that included a changing table for the parents on the go. Both restrooms were accessible to individuals who are in a wheelchair or are on crutches. However, there isn't currently an accessible entrance for someone with a wheelchair. My coworker and I stayed so long working that we decided to get lunch. I ended up getting the camp turkey hoagie with a red jacket apple cider. My coworker ordered the sambal tofu bahn mi. By this time, there was a bit of a wait due to the lunch rush, but it was worth it. They put potato chips on the camp Turkey hoagie. That just brought me back to middle school! And the flavor was quite nice with the dill, mint, and peppered relish. This place had great food, service, and music filling the space. I may come back again when I'm in town. read more

Cute spot with delicious sandwiches, soup, and pastries/desserts. Rolled through Kingston and stopped to charge our EV and our friend recommended we stop by and try the banh mi, which did not disappoint. The bread especially was delicious! And the cheesecake with pear was delightful. Was quite busy when we went but there was ample seating inside and out. Service was friendly and prompt. Would absolutely go back if I'm ever in the area again. read more

Cute interior and exterior. I am getting a bit tired of the counter to order, no service, and find your own table set up that almost every lunch place upstate is going with. I get why they do it but sometimes these places und up feeling like a kids space (guess thats why they call it camp). But all the counter staff were friendly and helpful. Food was really good. Loved the tofu banh mi and the turkey sandwich (it was a bit light on turkey). All the salads were great too. Campfire latte was also delicious. read more

b.overly_delicious @campkingston Kingston, NY: I've been hearing about crazy cafe, deli, bar, pinball space that has breakfast, lunch, and dinner and thought what a strange concept. Bar by night but breakfast in the morning . Finally, I made it over to check it out and was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't what I imagined, although I'm not sure what I expected. This place was slammed for a weekday afternoon. Walking in gave me instant nyc coffee house vibes. Well themed around summer camp and the outdoors. Owner Sam said his concept came from his college days in Ithaca. The back rooms sport a pinball gallery and the other a pool table. The front has a full bar with a grab and go beverage cooler and a full service coffee bar with Balthazar pastries behind the case. I got an iced latte, a pecan sticky bun, and an prosciutto and pesto sandwich. Latte was solid enough and the pastry crispy with caramelized sugar. The sandwich came out on a Bread Alone baguette which had a crusty shell ther gave way to an airy interior. The fillings were light but high quality and tasty. With a strong cured meat and cheese, you don't need a lot. Prices are what you would expect in the new post-covid Kingston. I believe the coffee, sticky bun, and sandwich came to $28. Cool vibes and I like their merch/logo. I wouldn't mind killing a few hrs here. They rent the space for events, so check their schedule online. #kingston #camp #campkingston #coffee #hveats #eater #hvfoodies #hudsonvalley #ulstercounty #balthazar #breadalone #ulstereateriesunfiltered read more

What a wonderful little find. I had a small vacation in Kingston and this spot quickly became my favorite coffee spot over the days. Delicious cold brew, lattes, and chai. The baked goods are soft, light, and sooo flavorful. Plus, the staff is super friendly. The cafe itself is a throwback to some favorite camping memories -- nostalgic, vibrant, and fun! A must stop on any visit to Kingston! read more

I have not yet revisited Camp Kingston, but after my initial review, I was contacted by the owner. He was very receptive and responsive to my feedback, and he gave me some information to help me understand some of their procedures. Camp Kingston is a nice addition to Kingston- the inside is nicely designed and it's in a great location. I'm looking forward to going back again soon to try some of the food! read more

Pros: Great sandwiches, good beer, nice staff and arcade games/pool table in the back. Cons: People treat this like a co-working space, which sometimes makes dinning in with 2+ on a weekday next to impossible. read more

Love the Balthazar cinnamon roll but my god the look of that place is like picking a theme for your myspace or early gmail....just close your eyes and ask for the espresso and the balthazar treats and head for the hills... read more

Delicious food and great atmosphere. Room to sit indoor or outdoor while you enjoy coffee and food. Big fan of the simple breakfast burrito (no meat) and the green sauce it came with on the side. Several pastries and breakfast parfait if you are looking for something else. read more

Such a fun vibe! I definitely recommend exploring the building, there's some cool community spaces to hang out in while you eat and drink.

Came for a quick lunch. Was going to sit at the bar but had to order and pay at the front desk. Left 20% tip! Food was OK but the wine glas wasn't even 4 ounces. And when I left the bar I was asked to take my dishes to a dish rack! Declined to do so! You wonder why you tip staff ? read more

This was my first time coming here and I had their vegan tofu bahn mi and I think it was the best sandwich I've ever had... even the bread it was on was amazing. My boyfriend and his friend had the breakfast wraps and loved them too. Also he had the single origin coffee which he said was wonderful. They have great vegan options, highly recommend! And they also have really cool rooms in the back to hangout in. read more

GET THE TURKEY SANDWICH! I cannot stress this enough. If you go there and do not get the turkey sandwich, you're doing it wrong!

Stopped by with my family while passing through Kingston and we loved it. Great service, great coffee/matcha and BEST GF sandwich I have ever had. We aren't from the area, but we will be back! read more

Camp Kingston has the 5 stars it deserves on Google, but we gotta correct this 3-star crap on Yelp because that ain't right! Listen, Dr. Cooks-a-Lot M. (who is too lazy by their own admission to cook but has plenty of energy to write yelp reviews). I have lived in this neighborhood for over a decade, and seeing this building finally get used, and have a fabulous small local business take the gamble of opening up shop there, is the best thing that's happened around here in a long time. The space is beautifully done, the back rooms with the arcade games and pool table are cool as hell, and the food and coffee are good and served up by the friendliest staff. They also have the most adorable bathroom, which is neither here nor there. I expect the food experience in particular to only improve and expand as they continue to find their footing and build relationships with local vendors. As an aside, Camp Kingston is LGBTQ+ owned and operated, and feels warm and welcoming to all (even total sticks in the mud like the good doctor Cooks-a-lot M.). The idea that this business is somehow not "local" and doesn't depend on the patronage of their customers is...patently ridiculous? What the hell are you talking about? It's not a Starbucks, dude. What about their model "doesn't work"? Seems like it's working just fine, given that the place is never empty. If you want Stewarts or QuickChek prices, go there. But if you want good food, good coffee, good vibes, and a nice place to hang out for a while, Camp Kingston is an immediate Kingston classic! Glad I got that off my chest. I love going to Camp! read more

I was taught that if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything. That isn't helpful with reviews though... but I digress. This place inspired me to write a slew of reviews which I haven't done in a while.... So I guess that's good? Go there for your zoom meetings or bring your friends visiting from Brooklyn who want to feel like they are right back at home. Meanwhile support your other local places that depend on your dollar for their livelihood and let these places wonder why their model doesn't work in upstate NY. Food 1.5 (combination of could make it at home but too lazy crossed with pretty much the same things you find at every other place like this in Kingston who have been doing it for much longer) Ambience 3.5 definitely not boring Coffee 2 (seriously though, way better coffee in Kingston for your dollar c'mon. And both times I went for coffee it was vastly different) read more
