+ Friendly and knowledgeable staff + Make customized tea lattes and choose your own tea from a wide selection! + Add your own simple syrup, agave syrup, and honey to taste + Lots of seating (indoors) Overall I would say I had a good experience, the staff helped me choose a floral, light and sweet tea (oolong orange blossom). They have a variety of tea leaves and the tea latte was ~$4.25 for a good portion. It reminds me of the tea lattes at milk tea stores, and being from CA, $4.25 is a good price for the size of the drink. read more

my favorite spot during a trip to hudson, lots of seating and very quiet calm vibe, I was able to just sit and read on a rainy day and another day on a hot afternoon. I got the iced chai latte which was mild but refreshing and tried a sesame and a peanut butter cookie. the staff were patient and kind as well. It's worth a stop for a treat and a break in your day. read more

Stopped in here while walking the strip. We were excited to try some of the flavors. I got the iced hot chocolate which was awesome but I couldn't finish it. It was just too sweet. Nice to try but I wouldn't get it again. Felt like I was going to go into a sugar coma. My wife got the featured iced tea. Hibiscus. She liked it. The macrons were really good. Fresh baked. The place had a lot of mass produced stuff but I think it was supposed to look more artsy and independent. We bought a tea set too which was kinda expensive for what we got. Sitting outside was great. But it's hard to mess up outside seating. That's sorta dependent on God right? Not the establishment. I think there were too many people on for how not busy it was. Who watches the watchmen? read more

Verdigris Tea & Chocolate Bar - Tea and iced hot chocolate - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hudson, New York

walked around the shop and found everything pretty expensive besides the tea leaves. SO affordable and sold by the ounce!!! the display was aesthetic and clear, couldn't resist to buy 3 as they all smelled so unique and complex. spontaneously decided to get a berry topped cheesecake as we left. SO worth it ESPECIALLY considering how cheap it was for a huge slice. pretty popular place and we only found open outdoor seating. the cake was CREAMY, smooth, flavorful, not too sweet, the berry sauce so fresh and fruity, tanginess perfectly balancing with the creamy cake. felt like i teleported to berry flower land. don't miss out on this one. read more

Delightful little place in Hudson NY. They have many teas to choose from, both iced ant hot. Also lemonades, coffees and hot chocolates. There are an abundance of tea accessories in their little shop too. Chocolates and pastries looked lovely. We tried one cookie that was delicious. Bathrooms are clean. Will definitely return when in the area . read more

Any place that has chocolate or hot chocolate I will go to lol. It's like a lure I cannot deny, though I probably should :P Anyway what a cute place and I very much enjoyed my cocoa from here. Service was good. read more

I think I get why Coffee is, by far, the most popular hot beverage in the world. But a serious Dark Hot Chocolate, is what's gotten me since I stopped coffee almost 15 years ago. And I don't mean that watery (no offense) Dunkin or Starbucks mess. I was hyped when I bookmarked Verdigris Tea and Chocolate a couple of years ago located in chic Hudson, NY. I was engulfed by Verdigris' chocolate scent off the bat. Place is spacious with an enticing range of gourmet Teas, lots of teaware and tea accessories to turn every sip of your loose leaf tea you purchase here into a taste of poetry. And in a shop that's dominated by Tea and Chocolate, Verdigris threw in a few coffee drinks. I think I was more numb with the heavy Chocolate scent, I completely forgot to pick up some loose Tea. Hubs powerful 'Angelina' Hot Chocolate hit all the high notes and was far tastier than my flat 'Mexican'. Maybe customize next time? Don't get me wrong, the spiciness and cinnamon were there, I just wished it had the same 'Angelina' rich component in mine. Service was pleasant from the ladies in the back to my hazel-eye girl in the front. Just so you know, this stuff isn't child's play- it's some serious undertaking when you come here. read more

I purchased a "dairy free" cake and it was delicious. You would never have guessed it was dairy free. Would definitely go back.

Came in for a sweet treat while doing doing some shopping in Hudson a few months ago. I got a cappuccino and I believe it was a banana cream pie and enjoyed both, especially the pie. It was a cute shop and had nice little tables inside. Perfect place to take a break during the day, especially when it was chilly outside. Would definitely return. read more

Verdigris Tea & Chocolate Bar - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hudson, New York

Really friendly and cute place to enjoy some time with someone. I Said my favorite tea flavors, and they had a mix that had all of them in one flavor. I was recommended the Kama Sutra tea, and I made it into a latte.. Love that they have a huge assortment of rooibos non caffeine flavors. Lavender chocolate I bought was also very yummy. read more

We had an awesome tea experience at Verdigris! We went on a Sunday afternoon before leaving Hudson, and we enjoyed a large pot of the Breathe (herbal) tea. It was a very unique, spicy flavor, and we sat at a 2-person table near the door for about an hour to enjoy it. Upon our arrival, the staff was so welcoming and offered to answer all of our questions about the "tea wall" - basically a wall containing dozens off teas Verdigris offers for drinking there or purchasing for consumption at home. Our tea was ready in ~5 minutes and a member of the staff brought a silver platter with the pot and 2 mugs to our table. The shop is set up like a typical coffee shop with limited seating. It has an area to purchase tea, coffee, and other drinks, and another area to purchase tea to take home. In addition, there is freshly-made chocolate as well as pre-packaged chocolate and tea supplies for sale. Prices are reasonably compared to a large chain, and Verdigris has a home town feel. read more

Doing some work in the building, I had the pumpkin pecan tart and it was to die for. The wonderful ladies working filled the place with absolute charm and hospitality. Definitely a must try. Everything looked amazing from ambiance, service, and tasty treats was an A+. read more

I accompanied my friend here. He was buying chocolates for his wife. He selected an assortment of chocolates. The female attendant just threw them all in a bag. All of the paper cups of the chocolates were strewn all over in the bag. And the chocolates ended up in one giant pile. It was such a mess. She didn't even bother to put them in a box. She was about to ring him up but another couple entered the store and cut him off. The couple ordered a slice of cake. The female staff dropped his bag of chocolates on the counter and served the couple first. She gave them their order and rung them up. She made my friend wait to pay after a couple that came in AFTER him. Even though he was completely done with his order and was waiting for the cashier to ring him up. What an absolute disgusting situation. I was going to order some desserts but I left after seeing how they treated my friend. read more

Came here for dessert and so glad we did. Definitely coming back. Pros: - The shop is absolutely beautiful and full of tea! Some tea shops are more like coffee shops. Also loved the ambiance. - Really nice people who work here Cons: - No public restrooms read more

So overwhelmed by the selection in this shop! I purchased pastilles, chocolate, a vegan truffle and a postcard. Such a great place for gifts and for me! I'll be back when I am next in Hudson to be sure. read more

Wonderful baked goods and (rich) hot chocolate. Only better hot chocolate I've had is from Shane's Confectionary in Philadelphia.

Super cute tea spot on Warren street! They have a wide variety of teas to order and purchase. The interior is warm and inviting. It is pricey but that's to be expected on Warren street. They also use paper straws as part of an environmentally conscious effort. read more

Verdigris Tea & Chocolate Bar - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hudson, New York

Great destination for teas and sweets. They have a huge selection of loose leaf teas. I'd guess that they have at least fifty different varieties of teas. They've got a barista in the back making teas, coffees, smoothies, and other beverages. The store has a bunch of different tea equipment including infusers, mugs, and kettles. They also have a ton of sweets including cakes, pies, and a huge selection of chocolates. read more

Came here three times in my week up in Hudson i loved it so much. Cool vibe. Great tea and pastries. Super friendly staff. Gave great tea recommendations. Can't wait to return! read more

Extremely friendly and dog friendly for that matter which is very important. If you are looking for something yummy and delectable this is an excellent spot for it. They have vegan, gluten-free, and as gluttonous as you want chocolates and cakes and cookies and delectableness. It's a warm environment where you can enjoy quality treats and beverages and feel welcome and at home. They have a huge array of loose tees to choose from. It would take months to try them all. Highly recommend. read more

This shop is absolutely adorable! Chocolates, baked goods and drinks are separated at three different counters. The list of teas was extensive and the prices were less than $3 for a large cup of loose tea. There was a variety of baked goods including scones, cookies, cakes, etc. The Linzer tart was delicious as was the caramelized pear rooibos tea. Can't wait to go back! read more

Verdigris Tea & Chocolate Bar - Cup of tea and Linzer tart - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hudson, New York

Slice of cake and cookie were good, chocolates were decent, however the staff member servicing us was cold and borderline rude. The cookie was placed in the same box as the cake and when we asked to please separate the two we were met with a huff and obvious attitude, as if we were inconveniencing them. Also when we asked for a specific type of chocolate the response was "youre just going to have to read". Shocking to say the least. Wont be back. read more

This place has soooooo many brands of chocolate to choose from to buy! The staff was really sweet too! I found some brands that I ended up having to order online a bit. They have nice tea items and different tea and coffee beverages to either buy or order their to have too! A few of my favorite things all in one spot, definitely a gem to stop by! If you check in, you can also get some discount on your smoothie too! read more

Verdigris is a Hudson staple. For me personally, they make the best dirty chai lattes. Pies are fresh and amazing as well as their baked goods. I'm looking forward to them expanding their tea accessories and confections read more

The food, tea, and selection of chocolates that we tried were fantastic! My only issue was that there wasn't any real food. No sandwiches or bagels or anything. I think this place would be a five-star place if it had something savory to eat, that would go with the something that was sweet. I should note that they did have one tray of quiche. But I would've really appreciated a selection of real food. We ended up going somewhere else for lunch but we would've absolutely ordered more here. read more

This used to be one of my favorite spots for an excursion, but the last time I went in, the service was so rude. The older lady barked at me to get on the right side of the line. While you can sit for about @15 minutes to enjoy your beverage / chocolate, their bathroom is now closed. As much as I had enjoyed this, I don't spent money to be treated badly. read more

The teas are great, so is the hot chocolate, but oh, oh, oh the cookies and pastries...I can't stop thinking about the molasses ginger cookie...and the blueberry cheesecake....Go. So very good. read more

This place was great! Got an iced matcha latte and the staff were friendly and easy to deal with. They were taking a lot of safety precautions due to covid-19 so I can respect that. They are allowing only 10 people at a time in the building and are taking it seriously and managing it. Good for them! I didn't try any of their baked goods because it was kind of impossible at that point for me to decide but they looked very good. read more

Disappointed this establishment is not enforcing social distancing and mask wearing rules. Two people walked in right before I did and the gentleman wore his mask with his nose exposed, store employees said nothing. At one point he pulled the mask completely away from his face to speak with an employee. Store employees said nothing. His companion did properly wear a mask but while I was waiting in line to order a beverage she walked up next to me and stood immediately next to me for several minutes. Way too close even if the world wasn't experiencing a pandemic!.Store employees said nothing. I understand I sound like a "Karen", but I became so uncomfortable I left without making my purchase. New York State law states any person who is over age two and able to medically tolerate a face-covering shall be required to cover their nose and mouth with a mask or face-covering when in a public place and maintain social distancing by keeping at least six feet distance between you and any other persons. The store had signs on the front door regarding masks and social distancing, the employees chose not to enforce it. read more

Great place, great service. I had a root beer float here which was excellent (the soda was a little flat, but by no means a deal breaker). My wife had frozen hot chocolate which she enjoyed. We would come back here again the next time we're in town. read more

If you are going to kick people for answering a phone call from their mother you should really have a sign warning people that you have a no phones policy. Thank you for making my day worse and making me feel unwelcome in a town I am visiting for the first time. read more

You can wile away an afternoon here, enjoying their fabulous truffles like the white tea coconut creme, coconut cluster and lavender truffle while sipping freshly brewed loose leaf tea (served with tiny hourglasses that let you know exactly how long each pot should steep for). And wile away we did. Lovely spot. read more

Where to begin? A large selection of loose teas, chocolate, sweets and local fare. They will brew you a tea or make a hot chocolate at the window in the rear of the store. We tried the lavender lemonade, which was one of the most refreshing and interesting things I've tasted in a long time. The lemon lime pistachio biscotti was awesome, super crunchy with the captivating flavor of lemon and lime zest. We also treated ourselves to a piece of habanero chili fudge, which was dreamy, and a lavender cream filled dark chocolate candy, also good with intense, natural flavors. The staff were super friendly and helpful. It's a place we will go to again when in Hudson read more

We stumbled upon this cafe on our way back to Manhattan. It's a chocolate and tea bar, but the pastries stood out to me the most. My BF ordered the coconut, carrot and pineapple bread and it was the most unique flavors we've tried and delicious too. The cafe was spoiled that day because the baker was on site baking the treats. The bread was warm and just came out of the oven. We also ordered a blueberry cheesecake with pistachios and it was another stellar dessert. We didn't have time to taste their teas but I'm sure it would have paired the desserts amazingly. Another reason to come back to Hudson because of this a gem. read more
