I customized my matcha with a tiny bit of strawberry flavoring and it was perfection. The taste was great and matcha was super smooth and the perfect temperature. My husband enjoyed his oat milk latte. The service was friendly and helpful. The little cafe was cozy and cute. I also love that they allow dogs in the front part of the store while ordering (but not in the cafe seating area) and have dog treats! Will definitely be back when visiting!

First time visitor to Broadway Coffee! Somebody highly recommended this shop to me!…read more I decided to try one of their current specials, a Tokyo Fog! This drink is akin to a London Fog latte but is made with Matcha, Earl Grey, and Honey cold foam. It tastes good! My four-star rating is because I absolutely love Bergamot and wish there were a stronger Bergamot flavor. The matcha could also be more strongly flavored. I ordered an iced Tokyo fog, and it was ready super quickly. The inside of Broadway Coffee is so unique, adorable, and inviting. Next time we visit, I want to stay to have my drink there. Looking forward to trying more of their special menu items!

Woooooow this place was so popular! We visited three times while in Saratoga Springs and every time…read morethere was a line to order. The bagel was delicious and fully stuffed with cream cheese or whatever else you order in it! There Matcha was good, the coffee was good. Everything was amazing about this place. Plus, there's so much seating available and we are able to add our own sugar/milks. TLDR, great coffee or Matcha spot and great bagel spot

Disappointments happen. This is a precept of the human experience. Especially when it comes to the…read morepursuit of a good café. So it went, you see, in Saratoga Springs yesterday. Uncommon Grounds had all the makings of a fine sit n' sip: high ceilings, superfluous interior arches, mildly darkened aesthetic, tin ceiling tiles, and an abundance of screamin' local artistry dressing up the joint. Brothers and sisters... I was stoked about the possibility of churning out some real Aldi-grade literature at one of the chunky timber perches. I was ready for a slammin cup of joe and a sick-ish vibe. Alas, all I got from behind the counter was a jersey stuffed with caustic disdain and affected arrogance. It was impressive in that the tone, delivery, volume and words were all brilliantly matched in conveying unmistakable I-wish-you'd-get-the-flip-outta-my-space-clappery. I know the exact phrasing and such would go a long way here, but the whole dang affected setup I received from the other side of the counter would be hella exhausting to recount. And not worth my time. To be clear, my time really ain't worth all that much. Now I could go on to tell you about the rest of the experience, the quality of the bagels and the consistency of the schmear, and the tones you'll find playing throughout the house-roasted brews. But as a journeyman writer in the café world, I'm not gonna waste any more descriptors on the brat-infused tea steeping at the front of house. Why? Simply because cafés are more than the drink and grub. Cafés are as solid an offering of what culture Earth has to offer across its varied continents, countries, and street corners. They are something to engage with and experience directly. Like riding a scooter across Vietnam. Like a Moroccan food market. Like wiping volcanic ash off your hiking boots after a day's hike in Cinder Cone. If the human engagement of the place is reprehensible, then in IMHO the treats and steeps don't matter. Disappointments happen. That's for sure. But I'm only gonna spend two more sentences telling you what you probably already gathered about this place. It's slippin' baby. It's slippin'.

We stopped into Saratoga Tea & Honey Co. after seeing their specials board outside, and the moment…read morewe spotted the Lavender Lemonade, we knew we had to try it. Fresh‑squeezed lemonade topped with their Karner Blue Lavender Tea and sweetened with honey -- it sounded intriguing, but it tasted even better. Everyone absolutely loved it and talked about it for the rest of the day. It was the perfect refreshing treat after an afternoon of book shopping. The shop itself is lovely, warm, and inviting, with a calm energy that makes you want to linger. The staff was friendly, and the whole space feels thoughtfully put together. It's exactly the kind of place you're excited to discover and even more excited to return to. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

I was cut off before I could finish my question and told the dog could not come in. I identified him again as a service dog and was cut off again and told he had to stay outside.

I wasn't sure what to expect being my first time and knowing for a fact that they run out of baked goods early. I was just happy to buy whatever they had left. THEY AGGRESSIVELY SUGGEST THAT YOU NEED TO PREORDER before you arrive. Just so you are "aware" of the atmosphere when you arrive. One of the staff members was super nice and answered my many questions. The other of the two just wasn't and informed me of the above. What's up with Saratoga businesses hiring really rude children?

Spot Coffee has been consistent since we arrived to New York. This was our nearest coffee stop as…read morewe hibernated in our airbnb when us Californians made the move to Upstate NY (what?! Crazy I know). However since we have been coming to SPOT we've never had an issue with our drinks, and the food is actually great! On top of everything else the staff are beyond friendly. My husband works right across the street and the barista who always works in the AM memorized his order (it's the small things that make a difference!). On top of that-their kitchen is not bad! I've had their chicken dumpling soup, sourdough breakfast Sammy's, and their turkey melts. However their BCE Bagel Sandwiches take the top prize. Idk what it is--but the toasted bagel sandwich comes piping hot every TIME and you get the perfect bite of CRISP, cheese pull, and bacon...the perfect AM treat. Inside you can expect your traditional coffee shop ambiance, however there are plenty of spaces to sit and lounge.

On this particular visit, I had an iced pistachio coffee and got some dark chocolate cherry pistachio bark. As you might've guessed, I really love all pistachio and assorted nuts in my chocolate. To top it off, I also grabbed a few pieces of assorted chocolate truffles as they are simply to die for. I had to stop there as moderation here is key.

Darling Doughnuts offers a rotation of weekly flavors to choose from. The donuts are square and are also available in mini sizes. We picked Boston cream, Churro, and classic vanilla sprinkle. The texture was really nice and light with strong flavor. Loved the donuts! I liked the Churro best as they make the chocolate with a hint of cayenne, so you get a kick of flavor there. The shop atmosphere was fun and gave me a Wes Anderson movie vibe with the colors and decor. Service was friendly and quick. Took a minute to decide but they were patient with us. I also ordered a tasty lemonade/ice tea, as they offered a detailed drink menu. Seating was available indoor and outdoor.
