Coffee Bean Cafe

Monica Jerminario

We've only gone a few times, but each time we've gone in the morning. We grab lattes, gluten free mochi donuts, and GF chocolate coconut cookies. Lattes are strong (which we welcome!). Baked goods are delicious. It may sound ridiculous, but I think it's kind of brave when baked goods have a generous amount of salt in/on them. The savory-ness bring these into a different arena than typical sugar-laden "desserts". Makes them memorable. They even made our kid a special steamed milk drink when they ran out of hot chocolate for the day. She loved the heart on top! Everything is so good that we dream about the mornings when they are open so we can come back. Also best place to eavesdrop on conversations 😂 it's happened to us and we've done it to others-- at least to get the feel of what's going on in Kinderhook.

Cozy cutie spot with great vibes. The latte was smooth and creamy, and the mochi donut? Chewy, soft, and just sweet enough. Perfect for a chill coffee break.

New place to have breakfast and lunch. Limited menu but food n drinks were great.

Ok, stopped by with several family members on Sunday. Perfect cappuccinos and lattes. The breakfast sandwich with spicy Thai lemongrass sausage and scallion aioli was perfect - and if you have never had a fresh from the oil mochi donut you have not lived. We had a toast special with papaya and other great green tasty treats on it (forget the name but see the photo! ) sweet but paired well with the spicy sandwich. The owner and staff couldn't have been nicer. The giant windows and white interior area are maybe a little stark for some but the vases of fresh tulips on the tables added a bit of color and cheer. Can't wait to come back for lunch/ dinner as my son and daughter in law have taken out on multiple occasions and have nothing but accolades. (and yes, I took a bite before the photo..... I will take that blame)

I'm not sure what kind of culinary witchery the place does to make such a unique and delicious egg sandwich. I've never tasted anything quite like it. The mochi donuts are also out of this world. Very impressed with my first visit and will definitely return.

This is a great place to stop in kinderhook. The food is Vietnamese inspired with a Hudson valley twist. They serve lunch and dinner most days. We got the vegetarian glass noodles which were superb and the breakfast sandwich. The egg was cooked perfectly and the milk bun is made in store. They also sell a few odds and ends as well as some unique pastries. They had a mochi donut that is really unique and a must try, it was very good! The same aff here are also very friendly.

Stopped here during a bike trip along the Empire State Trail and it was just delightful! The food was delicious (we tried a breakfast sandwich), the coffee was excellent and the service was great. There’s also an adorable shop next door called OK pantry that is a great place to check out too! And I should mention we bought a mochi donut to enjoy later on the bike ride and OMG it was amaaaaazing!!!

When food tastes so good, you don't want it to end, your taste buds go on an adventure, and tell you mind, this is where it's at? That is the delicious lunch menu by First Class chef Hannah Wong. Highly recommend the Veg Curry from the lunch menu, my friends had the Spicy Tamarind Soup, and on several occasions said how delicious the flavors were. Thank you Hannah Wong, I'll be a regular there, and can't wait for your other upcoming businesses! DE-LICIOUS

Cute and clean little coffee shop with an inviting, chill vibe. Coffee and tea were great as well as the pastries!

Great breakfast sandwich and coffee and great staff, but when I went, the crowd was pretty pretentious. Not the places fault, I guess, but if I could I’d knock off half a star for it.

Very good lunch! We enjoyed the uniquely flavored duck basil fried rice, richly flavored glass noodles, and the awesome grilled cheese twist on the scallion pancakes. Also loved the mochi donut - texture/taste reminds me of a fave pastry growing up in Asia. Glad to have stumbled upon this gem on our drive back to the city. Highly recommend!

I love this cafe’s lighting and drinks. I enjoy the food but a personal take, I wish they would make the whole menu gluten free since it looks like they would only have to switch to an alternative bread and granola to do so. Their mocha donuts are delicious.

Loved this bright beautifully appointed Cafe. We had an EXCELLENT brekky sandwich and veggie curry! The mochi donut was warm and freshly sugared and SEXY! We also enjoyed the coffee cake and the chocolate cookie. Robert was a doll! I wish there was a bigger selection of food on the cafe menu but I'm imagining that will happen in time. The sell food related gifts like unusual tableware, teas, magazines. I thought the lemonade drink was way too sweet for my palate but there's water available to cut it, so you can get two drinks for the price of one. They carry high quality teas which makes me HAPPY as a tea person but I would add a strong black tea and a mint based tea to their selection as well. We will be back!

Morningbird has a beautiful, artsy, welcoming interior. The display wall with glassware and snacks for purchase is lovely. The menu is interesting and ever-changing. The dishes are thoughtful and well-executed. I agree with another reviewer who said "if you haven't tried a fresh warm mochi donut you haven't lived." My favorites are that, the potato croquette, and a new item this week- Vietnamese coffee French toast with coconut whipped cream and maple syrup. It's a real gem in the area!

I can’t believe it has taken me so long to eat here!! The most delicious breakfast sandwich I have ever had in my life, seriously. Great atmosphere and lovely staff.

Stopped here after a hike for a quick breakfast sandwich to-go and I am not exaggerating when I say it was THE BEST sandwich my boyfriend and I have ever had. Mouth is watering just thinking about it hours later. Perfectly crispy egg with mildly runny yolk. Juicy, sweet pork sausage. Fresh salad greens drenched in chimichurri. Lemongrass was the star of the show though… Will have to come back!!

Arguably the best mocha I have ever had. Super nice and helpful people, laid back, comfy atmosphere.

DO NOT get the mochi donut… you will never stop thinking about it and you’ll eventually be shopping for bigger pants. Delicious food with veg options! The staff is awesome, coffee options are delicious but I wish there were more flavoring choices. Atmosphere is an aesthetic vibe but sadly, not very cozy. Nice to sit at the windows and watch the goings on in town though.

New Kinderhook restaurant has 3 or 4 breakfast and lunch choices and a separate menu for dinner. The food is delicious and the restaurant seating is well spaced and clean. There is also outdoor seating. We also enjoyed two of their wonderful pastries: hot cross bun and a heated donut.

When we first moved to the area two years ago Morning Bird was our go to coffee spot. The barista at the time was excellent and the drinks were consistently great. Over the past year we have had one too many disappointing experiences which culminated in the following. My wife ordered a cold brew. It was served in an 8oz hot to go cup. She was charged $8.64. That’s right, eight dollars and sixty four cents for 8oz of cold brew in a hot to go cup.

Extremely disappointing experience here that could have been remedied if the staff cared enough to show any level of care. We ordered at the counter at 11:15am and only received 3 orders by 11:40 with 4 orders still missing around 11:50. The staff was completely unaware and seemed to have zero level of urgency in correcting this problem. The French toast that did arrive was drenched in over cup of syrup and the server spilled syrup on someone in our group as she was setting it on the table. They automatically added oat milk to one of our drinks when we never asked it as well as an additional meal (yogurt and granola). We noted to the girl who took our order at the register that we did not add these to our order and the response was snippy and rude, asserting that we must be mistaken - someone with a nut allergy does not accidentally ask for oat milk. The cashier tried to help us get a refund at our request because we were tired of waiting for this food at this point (30+ minutes later) but then she didn’t refund us correctly multiple times and was unable to give us a return receipt. The manager was suppose to come speak to us, but never showed. All in, we wasted over an hour here. It’s Unfortunate because of the few things we did receive - the fried omelette/ rice and mochi donut - were tasty, but would not return again given how bad the service was, even for a casual / order at the counter place.
