Storied Coffee Schenectady Reviews
Hasna made the best matcha latte I ever had!!! Delicious. And great conversation. Nice atmosphere. They recently started being open in the evenings, great spot to chill in downtown Schenectady!
My husband and I have been regulars at Storied since we moved to the area in 2022. I'm never been a huge coffee fan, but Rich honestly changed my mind (at least on espresso) with their delicious house made syrups and perfectly steamed lattes. I love that they also offer teas and boba so my husband (the real coffee fanatic) and I can both get exactly what we want. It's the perfect place to come hang out, do a little crafting and reading, or get some work done. Bonus points for the second hand books, toys, puzzles and featured local art on the walls - it all makes for a cozy, inviting atmosphere! Parking in the lots is free on weekends and holidays!
Welcoming staff with cool and fun quirky things laid out. The coffee and the pastries are delicious. Try the apple fritter :) Thank you to the staff for a pleasant experience. ☕️
i came here for the first time today with my mom to pick up breakfast for my family the lox bagel, and plain cream cheese bagels were so good, i had an apple fritter and mom had a cream cheese danish both very delicious then i came back with my mom to get my sister her own cream cheese danish and myself their strawberry matcha latte the matcha was so good and they made the strawberry syrup by hand too
Storied is not a place to visit for a 90 second, in-and-out experience. Storied is the place to visit when you want a GREAT coffee beverage. Their customer service is top notch. I've never had an unpleasant experience at Storied in Scotia, and after 3 visits in the past few weeks, I am happy to report the trend seems to be continuing at the new Jay Street location. Baristas take the time to craft each beverage with care, which can include double checking your milk preference, reciting your order back for clarity, and pulling new espresso shots if the first try doesn't turn out right. Storied lattes are the best lattes, IMHO, and my partner loves to order matcha from here. I recently also grabbed a trio of Cider Belly donuts for a birthday treat for a friend. Love the collaboration with other local businesses. This new-to-them space has walls filled with artwork and plenty of seats, including table and window-facing counter space for your visit. I was also happy to find one of my favorite features to see at a coffee shop ever - a community puzzle table, positioned well and tall enough for customers to participate while waiting to place an order at the register or pick-up their goods at the side counter. Very smart and fun! Like the Storied Scotia location, you'll find lots of used books and fun stickers for sale, too.
Had a flat white and a bagel with cream both were great would come back again great staff and fun place to have a coffee and relax

Best all-round coffee and tea shop in the area. Friendly knowledgeable staff and the best ingredients.
When in downtown Schnectady, Storied is always my first choice for coffee! The employees are always so friendly and they have a very cute punch card system (its a library card). The books are reasonably priced (i paid $2 for a paperback) and they are building a decent selection. Definitely check them out if you’re looking for coffee or your next read!!
Friendly staff, great books, lovely vibe. When you think "coffee house", this is the place you imagine. You just want to have your coffee and stay a while, it's our go-to place when we visit.
My favorite place to get coffee in Schenectady. Great atmosphere, delicious coffee, tea, and food, and some of the friendliest employees around. Highly recommend.
Absolutely delicious coffee and an incredible vibe. Storied Coffee has a unique personality which you could only understand upon entering its doors. The owner, Rich, is super cool and down to earth and makes sure you are taken care of. SC is a great place to sit down and read, get work done, catch up with a friend, or grab one to go. They also have live entertainment on weekends. I highly recommend!
Storied makes a great cappuccino! And if you’re looking for a milk tea I suggest the maple milk tea hot or iced.
Uniquely tasty coffee. Good vibes and friendly barista. There are some interesting books and tattoo collection there.
Had a great morning coffee and bagel before my meeting. Very nice and the ppl are super friendly and accommodating!
Went for the first time yesterday and again today. The people working there are friendly and helpful to new customers, and I enjoyed the atmosphere. I'm not a coffee drinker myself, but I loved the tea I had. Great service, affordable prices, and great vibe
Espresso drinks are the best around, chicken salad sandwich is 🔥🔥🔥, and homemade boba fresh every day. Had the hojicha milk tea sweetened with just a little bit of honey and hit the spot. Chill vibes all around. Highly highly recommend!
Im not a fan of a lot of the cafe items they have, but the ones they do have are very very tasty. The atmosphere is very lively and fun. The staff is considerate, kind, and accommodating. You cannot go wrong with choosing this place for a spot to hang out with your friends, or go on a date.
They have PERFECT BOBA!!!! It is made with real tea and housemade syrups; no powders here! So delicious!! I don't drink coffee so it is so nice to have the wide variety of tea options here. My only complaint is that they're 40 minutes from me!! Try the Thai tea, maple, chai, jasmine green, mango, blueberry; it's all so good!
Delicious coffee and a very welcoming, comfortable vibe! The had ornaments to paint, puzzles, and books all for free enjoyment while you drink your coffee. Great spot!
As a person who is sensitive to caffeine it’s really hard to find good decaf coffee and their decaf americano is *chefs kiss* this place was recommended to me by a local shop owner and I’m so glad I tried it out. I’m here at least a couple times a week. The staff are friendly and they have a great rewards program/stamp card. Give them a try if you’re in the neighborhood you won’t be disappointed 😊

Simultaneously the best cappuccino I've ever had and the most casual business I've ever seen.
