Sugar & Spice Cafe Poughkeepsie Reviews
Great little spot. I had the chicken motzarella panini, which was delicious, and sweet potato fries that might be the best I've ever had. It was very busy so I was worried I would have trouble finding a place to sit but luckily I was able to find one and the place started clearing out as it got closer to 3pm. The staff was very friendly and I will definitely be coming back.
I sat at the counter post breakfast rush when the rest of the group had already gotten up on the mountain to ski. The staff was friendly and inclusive, I felt very welcome and everyone from the waitress to the host to the kitchen staff made sure I enjoyed my meal. The open view into the kitchen allows you to see how clean their operations are. There is also a fun gift shop!
I’ve been going to sugar and spice for a few years now and I have to say they are always extremely consistent in their service and food. It is ALWAYS so good! 😭👏
This place is amazing! Today was my first time trying it and I will DEFINITELY be back! My tattoo artist suggested I go here when we were talking about french fries- She wasn’t wrong! My panini was amazing and my wife’s wrap was delicious as well! We will definitely be back soon. I can’t believe I passed this place for years and had no clue it was there. What a gem!
Sugar and Spice Cafe never misses. The food is always super fresh and comes out fast, whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout. It’s self-serve, but the quality is anything but basic—everything feels elevated and thoughtfully made. Plus, the daily specials keep things exciting and give you a reason to come back often. I used to come to this plaza all the time without stopping in, but once I finally tried it, it quickly became a weekly go-to.
The food is out of this world. Their soup is delicious. Everything is homemade by scratch. I advise everyone to eat here.This place is amazing. I love their food.....
Sugar & Spice Café has been around for years, and there’s a reason people keep coming back — including me. This place is one of those rare spots that stays consistently good no matter how many times you visit. Every time I walk through the door, it feels familiar in the best way possible. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and always clean, with a comfortable layout that makes you want to sit down and enjoy your meal instead of rushing through it. The food here is fantastic. You can taste the care that goes into everything they make. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or something from their catering menu, the flavors are always on point. The French fries and potatoes are especially popular for a reason — perfectly seasoned, crispy, and honestly some of the best around. You can tell the recipes have been perfected over the years. The staff is another big part of why this place has lasted so long. They’re friendly, fast, and always seem happy to see returning customers. Even when it’s busy — which it often is — they keep things moving without making you feel rushed. Sugar & Spice is the kind of café you grow attached to. Consistent food, a great atmosphere, and people who make you feel welcome every visit. We’ve been coming here for years, and we’ll keep coming back.
This place is usually pretty packed on a Saturday and the food is amazing. Always cooked hot and fresh. You will get what you pay for. Great portions of food and friendly workers. 🥰 Definitely a family favorite place to go any day of week.
I've lived in the general area for 10 years now due to work and Sugar and Spice remains one of my favorite places to get food from. What I like the best is their paninis and wraps. It's just the right size and isn't overfilling relative to other places where you get less healthy or bigger portions you end up bringing home and snacking at for a few days until fully eaten. They also catered my wedding (smaller event of 20 people in 2018 and everyone enjoyed the food). Really love the place and one of my faves in the Hudson Valley
Sugar & Spice Catering were absolutely fantastic! They are extremely accommodating to food allergies-they were able to make my wedding entirely gluten free as I have celiac disease. They had great communication throughout the planning process. Billy and the entire team were incredibly kind and wonderful to work with. The food was delicious, we got so many compliments (and guests couldn't even tell everything was gluten free)! We highly recommend!
LGBTQ+ Friendly! This place is incredible! It’s tucked in an assuming strip mall, offering a wide variety of food options—sandwiches, wraps, breakfast items, and desserts. The portions are generous, and I highly recommend the potatoes, whether as a side or even the main dish. We had the bacon, egg, and cheese wrap with potatoes, a sausage, egg, and cheese on a roll, and a Bill Drone omelette with potatoes. Everything was flawless—just absolutely amazing!
This is a really nice place which is great for breakfast and lunch. They may serve dinner as well but I only ordered from their breakfast menu. They have some innovative sounding breakfast wraps and omelets along with pancakes and pastries. I simply had their bacon, egg and cheese, sandwich and it was very good. A nice woman behind the counter took our order and gave us a number card to put in the holder on the table. When it was done she brought us the food. Very nicely decorated atmosphere with tables and chairs and some booth style seating along the walls. The bacon was cooked perfectly (I'm a bit picky about bacon - I like it crispy but not overdone and hate it dripping in fat. This was done just right.) My friend had scrambled eggs and bacon that came with home fries. I'm not a big fan of home fries but these were REALLY good! We didn't partake of their delicious looking cookies and cakes, but I'm guessing they are just as good as their food. We stayed past 11 and already it was getting crowded for lunch. Nice place, good prices, and very good food. I highly recommend it.
Was my first time here and I had such a great experience. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The space was clean, comfortable, and though it was very busy there were still seats available. The food was fresh, came put fast, and portions are a great value. I will definitely come back when I am in the area.
Attractive eating area, convenient parking and my Greek omelet was fluffy and delicious. My toasted multi-grain bread was delicious and the roasted potatoes crisp.
First time here. There was a big group in front of me but the gentleman got through them pretty fast. I ordered my food online and paid when I was in store. I ordered a Tex-Mex chicken wrap and added roasted peppers. The salsa makes the wrap a little soggy at the bottom but otherwise had a good kick to it and the fries were crispy.
We got the Homerun and Western Omelet. The Homerun had homefries and we weren’t a fan of the taste. The orange slice was very yummy as well as the french toast with sausage patty. He didnt like the dryness of the omelet and the ham used. otherwise, yummy! the space is small, a little cramped but evem though it was busy, could still find a place to sit
I’ve been here quite a few times and the food has been pretty good. I normally order a panini with fries and so far they haven’t disappointed. The fries are always perfectly battered and crispy. I got the sweet potato fries once and they were not as good as the regular. The place gets pretty busy during lunch time, so seating is pretty limited and it might take you a while to get your food. They do sometimes mess orders up, but it’s understandable given how busy it is during that time. I’d recommend calling and placing an order ahead for pickup if you’re going during lunch.
Good lunch spot! I’ve been there a few times but this most recent was the most memorable. Counter service. Staff was super kind and all our lunch orders were correct and fresh tasting! The turkey Swiss panini was delicious and the crab soup of the day was also pretty yummy. We loveeee their French fries- crispy breast and amazing. The double chocolate cookie was also very yummy for dessert. Unassuming spot in strip mall plaza but cute inside as well.
The place is great. Clean, organized, a great amount of different items on the menu. The menu has so much in it that my eye got tire. The food taste good. I don’t usually like salad but they make it so good that I eat my all my plate. The only thing that I didn’t like is a little actitud that the employee at the counter gave. We asked for a recommendation and the only thing he did was point to the menu. Besides that everything was good. They have available parking.
Ordered a sandwich today. Made a mistake, I said sorry and wanted to slightly change my order. Make cashier was not too nice and didn’t put a toothpick in my sandwich. Young, inexperienced cashiers do not have that people friendly personality. I do like this place.
The food really is delicious but the customer service here is really awful, I was sitting waiting for my food for almost an hour about 45 minutes and then while sitting the older guy who works the front counter ran into my chair with his body instead of saying anything. I only got a soup, it’s just sad cause such a good restaurant should have better staff. My food was done 2 minutes after I ordered it and they just didn’t bring it out. It’s delicious but just needs a better staff or for them to care alittle more
