What a delight!…read more Founds this place on Yelp when I was in the New Paltz area and decided to stop by for some coffee, breakfast, and to get a little work done. I arrived to find them right off a bike trail in a small shopping center. If you live or are visiting the area and are biking at all, you could definitely bike right on up from the trail. The space inside is bright and airy. It was a great space for working in and they kindly provide free wifi. I ordered a mocha made with oat milk. For milk alternatives, they have oat and sesame. I was leery having never had sesame milk to get that so opted for oat milk but kinda wished I would have tried it. That said, the mocha was splendid--rich, strong espresso and flavorful chocolate--it was pitch perfect. For my breakfast I opted for their avocado toast which was an absolute dream. Hands down one of the better avocado toasts I've had the pleasure of enjoying. The service was warm and welcoming. Zero complaints about this spot! Get to it!

The reason why I'm only leaving three stars is because there's always this one girl who's attitude is so apparent. I don't like the "gen z stare" term/ stereotype BUT this girl is a professional at it! Every time she calls out drinks she awkwardly rolls her eyes. I didn't catch her name but it's the lady with short hair and bangs!

Then the girl behind him in line ordered an iced mocha and she made it for her. He didn't tell me this until after we got into the car. But if I had known I would not have ordered anything. My boyfriend is black and I just wondered if it was a racism thing. I could be wrong but it felt that way since everyone else was white. It happened while I was going to the bathroom at the creepy bus station office next door which you have to go to bc the coffee shop doesn't have one. I got a chocolate croissant which tasted fine but the woman who worked there made me wait a super long time while she and the guy in front of me talked about his dog. There are a lot of coffee shop options in New Paltz so you don't have to go here if you need coffee. I would stay away from this place. I was led astray by a review that said it was good.

I popped in one winter lunch break and was hypnotized by the promise of that cocoa comfort I love. Ridge C. isn't just another cozy café. They have an entire wall lined with spices and loose-leaf teas in clear, labeled Mason jars. It's like a tea lover's dream. I was in my element. But let's talk hot chocolate. The first time? Disappointing. Bland. Still, I gave it another shot. This time requesting they go heavy on the chocolate. Nope. My 'heavy on the chocolate' request slipped into thin air, because round two was just as bland. Tip: Parking on Main Street is a nightmare and the meter maid's out here like it's a sport. Save yourself and look for a side street instead.

You have all the natural sunlight coming inside with a great view of the walking path. Everyone here is very happy and friendly. I had a great time here hanging out and will come here again.

A cafe needed some games. Then it needed a lot of games. Then it needed food. And drink. And more games. Now they're roasting their own coffee. The inertia is palpable. But, none of that really matters. Anyone can come in and pay a modest price for great coffee, and choose a board game and lose themselves in it. It's that simple. The perfect rainy day activity when you can't climb. GGG for life!

Located quickly off the Thruway we hopped off and were at New Paltz Bagel Cafe in just a few minutes. Located in the Tops Shopping Center they are right up front and there is plenty of parking. There were also a couple of EV car chargers in the lot. We walked into the shop and we were the next online. It is a small cozy shop with ample seating. There was a great choice of bagels and spreads as well as muffins and cake. We came at a great time as people started pouring in as soon as we sat down with our food. I went with the "Super Onion Egg Bagel" with some cream cheese while my wife went with "Everything Bagel" with vegetable cream cheese. Both of us truly enjoyed our selections. Being from Long Island and patronizing the same places for years, our expectation levels may be a little high. Overall, this shop did a great job especially with the wonderful staff here.

Ever since I was a child, FroYo has been a bit of a passion of mine. There's just something special about a sweet cup of frozen cultured milk (translation: yogurt). Plus, my Father always took me, & then we'd catch the marching band in town. Oh pops, how I wish I take you to this establishment. Anyway, the diversity of the menu in Delish is actually very astounding. Personally I am biased towards the mindsquelching feeling of getting a cup of FroYo, however not everyone goes to a FroYo place wanting FroYo (apparently). If you have a less adventurous appetite, you'll go with a smoothie, Boba, or perhaps even an Açaí bowl. Oh the variety is quite impressive if I do say so myself! But that's not all, the service is pretty capital! The employees here totally embody the FroYo spirit, keeping this place whimsical & wonderful! I haven't been here in quite some time, but I'm definitely looking to return. I'll honor my Pops with his favorite flavor, butter pecan. I'm holding my spoon high & to the sky, thank you Delish for this experience.

Now that we're living in The Catskills, my quest to find that similar market prototype I grew to love in Westchester, continues. I had forgotten hubs and I came here before during one of our bi-annual trips to The Catskills. Recently though, when I searched for produce markets near work in Highland, Wallkill View in New Paltz popped up within a short driving distance. As you drive past all of New Paltz bustling shops and restaurants on Main St, you'll soon approach a sleepy farmland area overlooking Mohonk Preserve in about 5 or so minutes. I've been hard-pressed to find a market that tops my favorite one in Westchester and checks all the boxes. Wallkill View grows and sells a nice mix of produce the area has to offer. And when veggies and fruit aren't grown on-site or in season, they're sourced from elsewhere. Unlike other farm markets that operate only Sat+Sun, Wallkill V. is open everyday. Well...almost. These folks shut down for Christmas and throughout the winter- reopening in March. Prices are about $1 more than what I paid down in White Plains- but hey... I get it. Service is great though.
