This cozy cafe in Kingston will make you consider moving upstate just so this can be your local spot. They serve high-quality coffee in aesthetically-pleasing locally-made ceramics. When you find that you’ve fallen deeply in love with your mug, don’t worry — you can probably buy one to take home.

The food here is worth going out of your way for. A seasonal salad is never a bad choice; they’re usually bulked up with interestingly-seasoned nuts or seeds and some local cheeses. There are also breakfast sandwiches, a variety of toasts, and a pastry case filled with good looking things you’ll have a hard time choosing between.
