Could easily be the name of cologne on sale in Macy's. But it's not. This was one of the best cappuccino I've ever had anywhere On Earth. Even California. The gentlemen who took my order was very professional. Bought some shades for 13.50 because I left mine at home. 5 stars.

One of the best coffee spots in the Capital Region! The drinks here are not only delicious but also incredibly creative. I tried the strawberry milk cold brew and it was refreshing and beautifully presented. The baristas are friendly, and the space is modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed. You can tell that the owners put a lot of heart into every detail — from the coffee to the interior. Their pastries are also amazing — fresh, flavorful, and made in-house. Whether you’re grabbing a quick latte or sitting down to work or chat, this place is a gem in downtown Troy. Highly recommend!

This cafe offers more than coffee. It offers an indulgent experience that encourages you to slow down and linger in the elegant aesthetic of the cafe, and the rich, layered flavors and textures of the drinks. We sampled many offerings from the menu. The velvety vanilla citrus spice latte was comfort in a cup on a raw, blustery day. My family especially enjoyed the warm spices of the horchata latte, and the delicate sweetness of the saffron latte. And the creative cold brews offered bold and unexpected flavors. It’s no surprise then that the baristas are winning international competitions and acclaim.

My go to stop after visiting the farmers market. I have yet to have a bad drink here. The lattes are always so smooth and delicious with the seasonal ones always being a must try. The drink pictured was the tiramisu latte and it was well worth the visit!

I e stopped in several times but in December went with friends to an evening (after normal hours) Geisha tasting event here… interesting experience learning about coffee roasters and sampling geisha style. Tiny but beautiful space, met people drawn to the location from more than an hour away which says something. Love the little window seat nook overlooking River Street. Every cup they put out is a work of art. Inclusive, friendly, have yet to try any of the pastries/smaller bite cafe food but looks yummy. Cute, clean bathroom with the best air freshening scent and I am never a fan of public restrooms.

Outstanding coffee shop for folks really into coffee or just looking for a nice cup or specialty drink. Reserve menu is killer and those are available as pour over or AeroPress you love to see it, friends. Shop is on the smaller side but I’ve never not found a seat and although the line can look long I’ve never waited much; they’re quick! Sorry for the one not great pic, I wanted to highlight the award for their cold brew. The shop is cute - go and see for yourself!

No visit to this town is complete without making it a stop. Without a doubt, this Troy coffee shop is my favorite. A true treasure is cold brew strawberry milk. Jacob Alejandro's ambiance, which radiates sophistication, is the ideal match for the experience. The space's meticulous attention to detail and lush green accents are my favorites. A vibe, that is all!

Lovely cafe in a great location downtown. The horchata latte and pumpkin cold brew were both delicious. Staff here were super nice, making orders cleaning up and handling customers close to closing time. This definitely isnt a food place, but the pastries are pretty good.

I absolutely adore Jacob Alejandro; it's one of my favorite coffee shops in Troy. I've enjoyed a variety of their delightful coffees, from my beloved Horchata Latte to their indulgent Chocolate Milk Cold Brew. Their inventive flavors, like the cheesecake cortado, and seasonal offerings keep me coming back for more. And their housemade pastries—each one is a treat, from scones to cheese bread. The ambience at Jacob Alejandro perfectly complements the experience, exuding class and elegance. I love the green accents and the attention to detail throughout the space. It's simply a vibe, and I also enjoy working from here every once in a while!

Place is great for coffee. I got regular filter coffee all black and it tastes just like how I wanted. A little bitter. Cappuccino is well made and beautiful. Too bad we don’t eat much pastry breakfast but they look great. We come here because the ambiance is well designed and the leather couch. Luckily we got here super early and the window seats are open. The town is so cute and quiet for a weekend getaway. I can tell the owners put a lot of thought into this place with little touches. There are a lot of tasteful green color. My maybe future cafe would totally have their vibe. Overall a great place for your first cup to just chill and relax.

It was good but I hate being the guy to complain about price. It’s “a little treat” not an every day thing. Nice meet up spot.

I’m a coffee addict, and I was genuinely excited about visiting this café, especially since they present themselves as a coffee specialty spot. Unfortunately, my expectations weren’t fully met. Although the café is equipped with professional machines and the baristas clearly know what they’re doing, the cappuccino I ordered wasn’t of the quality I had hoped for. The beans, as is often the case in the U.S., were over-roasted, and the milk foam lacked the firmness typical of a proper cappuccino. That said, compared to other cafés within many miles, this one is definitely among the better options. There was a line for coffee on Saturday, which speaks to its popularity. The atmosphere inside is pleasant, the staff is friendly, and they offer a selection of pastries.

Good coffee, good treats. But I just am never going to be a fan of the huge up charge for non-dairy milks. You can go down the street to whistling kettle and get your non-dairy milk included!
