The smell inside will have you drooling harder than a boxer puppy smelling a pizza. Unfortunately I forgot to save the photo I took of the delicious display of pastries. That display certainly hooked me. Came in for coffee walked out with delightful bites I couldn't wait to dig into. One of which was a strawberry danish. That crust was amazingly light and flakey. Layered strawberries, center with a little cream and that cream topped off with some lemony drizzle. Oh just pure goodness. Prices VERY reasonable. Coffee is outstanding. Desserts are dangerous. You will want to say "One of each please" and you won't regret a thing.

It's located on such a charming street, and stepping inside felt like walking into an elevated Barnes & Noble straight out of a Harry Potter movie. There are endless shelves of books across every genre, cozy seating throughout, and the perfect atmosphere to spend hours browsing or reading. The coffee was just as wonderful as the space. I wasn't sure what to order, so the barista recommended a drink and was incredibly accommodating with my many requests. I can't have too much milk or syrup, so I basically gave them a complicated custom order, and they made it exactly to my liking without hesitation. I also ended up buying one of the chocolate bars they had at the counter and turns out it was $20!!!! As a tourist, I had no idea it was a well known local chocolate brand with a factory nearby, so that was a fun surprise. This is the kind of place that makes you want to slow down. I'd love to come back, grab a coffee, spend the entire afternoon reading, and just soak in the comforting smell of books and fresh coffee. Such a cozy, magical spot that's well worth visiting!

I'd come here all the time if I lived close by.

There was NOTHING welcoming about the experience. If I wasn't so darn hungry, I would have said "forget it." The sandwhich itself was really good, and a great price (compared to the rest of uptown Kingston), which I appreciated. She thanked me for coming back for the sandwhich and that was that. Really too bad the place isn't more welcoming. They'd have more customers from nearby offices, I'm sure.

Their handmade drinks are quite good, and the coffee is well pulled. Strong without any bitterness. I haven't tried the food yet, but they sounded good so I'll have to go back. Oh, there's a bathroom in the antique shop. It's clean. Should I just go around reviewing public bathrooms lol? I was told that you can use the U driveway up front as a kind of drive thru? But there is parking on the antique shop side. It's a great location because you can walk around the shop while you wait for your drink - they have a cool selection if a variety of antiques. The only annoying thing is if you're going southbound, and you want to get back on the southbound side after. That left turn sucks.

For quick in and outs to grab coffee, you can pull into the wrap around driveway, or there is additional parking in the back. Every single drink on the menu is made to perfection and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients used. Some ingredients are made in haus! Anthony is the heart and soul behind the carefully curated Arios Coffeehaus. He is always welcoming and very friendly. We also love when his mom is filling in for him! The vibe is very classy, easy going and makes me feel like I'm in a little Italian cafe. My favorite drink is the midnight coconut. Collectively between myself, my boyfriend, and cousin we have tried every drink on the menu and every one of them hits the spot every time. We love the loyalty cards and make sure we always have ours in the car. This is my favorite coffee spot ever so far. I love the emphasis on local here. You can't help but to be aware of all the love and care that is continually poured into Arios. The key to your success will be to always remember that love and intention are the secret ingredients to anything good in life. Thank you for every wonderful visit!

Kingston Bread+Bar came a long way from their previous spot. Their previous location had its charm,…read morebut this new home on Broadway I feel is way better. This is more inviting, has more personality and just a whole vibe I think. Parking can be a little touchy depending on when you pull up, but once you get inside, you forget all about that. They make all their (and maybe in-house(?)). Beyond the bread, they have shelves with canned goods, fridge stocked with cheeses and other little finds. Kingston B. is like a little neighborhood-market-meets-bread-bar energy. I came in for a bite and somehow left with more than I could chew. I went with the grilled cheese with white cheddar and ricotta pressed between their sourdough bread. Simple on paper, but the flavor was definitely on point. It's creamy, super cheesy, had a freaking terrific melt pull and the bread is crispy where it needed to be. I mean- that bread really brought the whole thing together. Or was it the combo of the cheeses? Definitely not your basic grilled cheese.

The turkey was nicely sliced and the ingredients were all fresh, but it was so salty, I could barely eat it. The bacon very thick, so they put the slices on the side.

You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, and everything feels thoughtfully made. The ambiance is warm and cozy, the kind of place you want to linger in. I also love that it's part cafe, part market, so you can grab incredible food and also pick up market goods like fresh bread and local items. It feels like a neighborhood hub and a destination all in one. An absolute must if you're in Kingston.
