Stopped there on our way to our travel destination for a cup of morning coffee. A simple coffee place with warm vibes, friendly staff and a refreshing cup of coffee. Really loved it
UC is such a warm comfy coffee shop. Jenna always takes care of me whenever I stop in.My go to quick grabs would be their BLUEBERRY MUFFINS🫐🧁 & a cappuccino!Uptown Coffee does a monthly showing of wall art for local artist/photographers where you can showcase or sell your artwork on her walls!Not only is that fun to glance at while you wait for your food/coffee addiction but its a beautiful gesture to show someones art! Which she kindly did for me🌿Support small local businesses, stop in Uptown Coffee🖤☕️
This place has seriously ruined lattes for me. Theyre so freaking good that nowhere else compares! Its not just the lattes that are amazing here, the food is fantastic as well. The scones are made from scratch and the flavor combinations are always phenomenal. The staff is friendly and the owner, Jenna, is amazing. This place deserves 10 stars and a golden medal. I live in the Woodstock area, so I rarely go to Kingston these days. Which is unfortunate for my mouth, but probably extremely fortunate for my bank account. Id die a happy woman if I had to survive on nothing but their products for the rest of my life. Oh, and the art! Jenna almost always has amazing art, by local artists, hanging in her coffee shop. (Im pretty sure, but not positive, that you can usually purchase the artwork while there as well.)
My #1 morning spot great coffee, great baked goods and the people are nothing but wonderful.
I discovered this small shop while visiting Kingston and what a glorious find! First off, the staff are very friendly! Second, the blackberry scones are out of this world! I had a fresh one and it was filled with blackberries, soft, and just straight up delicious! Third, the coffee is great. I really enjoyed my cortado. I’ll definitely stop here again when I’m in town
Great old fashioned shop with very good coffee
I crave their lavender oat milk latte
This may be the best coffee Ive ever had out!
Lovely place with excellent food and beverages!
Good food, friendly staff.
I stopped in one day for the first time and the vibe was great! It’s tough to get over there due to my work schedule but when I did, it was a great experience. The Coffee was great! Recommend it to anyone in the uptown area.
Muffins, Tea, Coffee. All top notch! Made in an antique furrier’s shop this place has it all!!!
I am there every other day. It feels like my other home. Today I had another great salad and a mocha. The staff feels like family. They are all so hospitable and helpful. Sometimes I come in with a person who has mental challenges due to Lyme disease. They are kind and understanding. Thank you.
Maybe its COVID, maybe I was having an off day, but I wasn’t thoroughly impressed with this coffee shop. The man who served my coffee was a little gruff, and the wrap and coffee that I got were just subpar. A little disappointed when there’s so many other great coffee shops in Kingston.
No other place to go for a great latte! Staff is always kind, and they have really unique specials. I love seeing what they come up with each week. The TW is a great drink, it needs to be on the menu every day!
Dont order breakfast here. Unless you like microwave eggs and bacon bits. Drinks are alright
UC is a great local coffee shop. It has a fun look with a cool round room in the back that is inspiring, and their simple menu is perfection flawlessly executed without the fringe of other coffee joints. And the STAFF IS AMAZING. Down to earth, solid people in a quaint-yet-wonderful little cafe. This one, go here!
Sour, acrid espresso.
The coffee is excellent, the owner and staff are even better. Anytime I go in there my day instantly gets better. Highly recommend.
Stopped by one of my favorite places today for a cup of tea and some hot beverages for my staff. Jenna the owner brightened my day with some fresh chocolate chip cookies and a warm smile. I left remembering why I love Uptown Coffee and the awesome team of people over there.
I ordered a caramel latte with an extra shot and it was the most disgusting coffee ever. Ive gotten this type from many other places and its always been great; and Ive gotten a regular caramel latte from Uptown Coffee and it was good, but this time it tasted awful. Im not getting coffee from them again because it kind of made me feel sick to my stomach and I even added cinnamon and some sugar to change the taste but to no avail. I dont like to complain but right dollars is allot of money to throw away and I should have said something but like I said I dont like to complain. Plus I work in the food industry I know how it is and they were busy so I didnt want to be the one to make a scene.
Excellent coffee and amazing hot chocolate. The service is wonderful and my family and I have come here anytime. We will often stay and drink our beverages while talking for quite a while enjoying the atmosphere. It is a wonderful quaint little coffee shop. And I wish the world had more gems like this.
I walked into this place wanting to try something new. I sat down and was served my dolce latte and salad. I had to take photos because it was so pretty. I sipped my latte and ate my salad. It was actually pretty good. The coffee was nicely made. I was halfway through my salad when I looked down and saw a maggot crawling out of the greens...I felt my core temperature run up and though I was about to vomit I needed proof this was real. I quickly captured the little fly infant on video and then begged for someone to come take a look. The waitress Almost cried and took my plate..after what felt like forever I asked for water because I felt light headed. I then waited to see what would he done...nothing..i asked for my money..and left went back to work and had diarrhea for three days...i felt like they could of handled this better.I was hurt they didnt respond more empathetic.
It’s nice to walk into a business and be greeted by genuine people who love what they do, and provide coffee that reflects the same. Well done.
An unpretentious, but attractive place with great coffee & tea& a relaxed/friendly atmosphere.The prices are based in reality as well, whereas some otherlocal shops are a little full of themselves.Love this place.
An absolute blessing in Uptown Kingston, UC has great coffee, the best scones, and a welcoming atmosphere. I look forward to my daily trips to UC for an afternoon caffeine fix!
Lovely array of delicious treats, one better than the next!
Uptown Coffee is the rarest of the rare nowadays, especially in a tourist town like Woodstock or even in many college towns, because local economies can no longer support comfortable, spacious places to sit and drink coffee or eat pastries at a leisurely pace. To survive in most trendy places in America, a cafe must adopt the Starbucks model: uncomfortable chairs, crowded arrangements, and overpriced, overrated food. Uptown Coffee defies all these trends and remains the ideal place for writers, readers and talking heads -- including attorneys and civil servants from the courthouse across the street -- to do their thing in a proper environment.
Far and away the best espresso in Kingston. Also the best breakfast sandwiches (I love the Uptown Funk with bacon and avocado). Staff is great. Ambiance is low key and casual and friendly (just what you want in a good coffee house). For espresso I put this place in the top five between Westchester and Albany.
Homemade chocolate sauce, staff is really great. Fast service.
This is my favorite place in Kingston, NY to get lattes and coffee. Ive tried every Cafe in the area, I go out of my way to get a caramel latte from here daily. Friendly staff, quick service, A+ coffee.
Love this place! Espresso is consistently well done. Service is fantastic.
The staff here are incredible. Im not from the area and was having issues with my phone service and they were very nice and knowledgeable about why that mightve been a thing. Also, squash in a breakfast burrito? Genius. It was fantastic. I had the Diablo. I highly recommend!!
Nice locally owned coffee cafe. Great seating area and friendly atmosphere.
I love the atmosphere. Its a great coffee shop environment, and very spacious. My problem is the espresso. Its very biting and sour in the front, and weak in the back. I would rate the body as acceptable, but not great, and the aroma left something to be desired. That said, its a great place to go alone or with a group, and the exposed brick is beautiful.
Quick service and efficient staffing. I will say that the secondary barista was speaking very loudly and the conversation was extremely intrusive. This did cause us to leave because we couldnt hear each other speaking over her raised voice and we were even in a different room, this seemed unprofessional. But the food and coffee were excellent.
Fast, friendly service. They make their own chocolate and the iced mocha is outstanding.
Cant make a decent tea latte to save their lives!!They skimp on tea leaves and dont let it steep at all before adding milk. The result is an overpriced, tasteless, weak drink. Ive given them way too many second chances because of convenience, and Ive NEVER gotten tea lattes as reliably terrible as this place.The second time I tried to get a London Fog here, I came back and asked them to remake it because it was so weak I could only taste vanilla and milk. Instead of being gracious about it, she claimed that their customers LIKE the tea lattes weak 🙄
Stopped for a Macchiato to go, wished I had time to sit & sip but still got the vibe while enjoying on the go traditional crafted drink and a yummy cranwal muffin. Morning complete.
Nice and quite coffee shop located in an old bank. The original safe is still located in the bathroom.
Great iced coffee, good service, smiling faces (learn something,Hipsters), reasonable prices, and cool environment. What more could you ask for? 👍
Coffee/tea and service was great, its just kinda run down and dumpy in so many easily fixable ways. nothing major, but so much of a coffee shop is atmosphere and vibe and this really detracts from that. Id still go back, though. Wi-Fi works great.
Will never go again. Ordered two sandwiches, two coffees and two chocolate milks for the family. Kids HATED the chocolate milks (at $3 a piece) and my youngest threw my sandwich on the floor before I could take a bite. I understand that theyre not obligated to make another however after spending nearly $25 on food and drinks youd think theyd take pitty on us. Last visit. Go somewhere else if you have children
Good service
Their drinks are so good, I dont even want Starbucks anymore!
Great staff! Knowledgeable and friendly! Yummy coffee too!
A great old fashioned real coffee house with good food and great coffee
Really great service and creative drinks.
Ok....vegetarian but no vegan options although thry were accomodating. Not much table seating if you coming with a few people.
One of my fav breakfast/lunch spots. Best coffee and the staff is always pleasant. Jenna and Donna are great!
Great coffee spot, so much better than the big chains.
Love this place. Great coffee, atmosphere, and food.
Veggie wrap was tasty
Always friendly, great drinks and a great place to get work done!
Great choices and fantastic made with serious care
LOVE the environment! Owners are very hospitable and welcoming.
Good coffee. Friendly staff.
The best coffee in the world!! The personnel was awesome and fantastic scones. Id totally go back!!!!!
Im a cappuccino snob. Ive tried all spots in town. This is by far the best.
This is hands down the best café or coffee shop I have ever been to. The service is perfect, they allow you to make any modification you want on your order. The food options are great for any diet. Lots of gluten free, lactose free, paleo and low carb offerings. The daily soup is usually a good bet. The coffee drinks are creative, especially the tea based drinks.
Not just great coffee. Wraps, baked goods, paleo diet favs.
My favorite coffee shop around! Try the Spicy Chicken wrap soooooo good!
Good coffee and corn muffins 😋
Food is very salty but the coffee is great!
Best cappuccino in the Hudson Valley! To-die-for good.
Cool place, good coffee and light snacks
Good eats, friendly staff and convenient hours.
Love the coffee and atmosphere whole of the best lattes I have ever had put Starbucks to shame. Just visiting here from Cali but cant miss coming here
Cute little café but very pricey.
Jalepeno egg bombs were da bomb
