Coffee Crawl: The Best Coffee in the Saratoga Area
Author: Eliza
Are you looking for some of the best coffee in the Saratoga Springs area? We have a few favorites that offer you the best brews in the area and a charming spot to sit and sip for a while as well. Read on for some of our favorite coffee spots and recommended drinks.
Uncommon Grounds:
402 Broadway, Saratoga Springs, NY
Uncommon Grounds is situated prominently on Broadway Street in Saratoga Springs and has been a gathering spot for coffee and bagel lovers since the 1990s. Their focus is on fresh and high quality both in their beans and their bagels. There are lots of tables to sit at and enjoy your drink and usually a longish line, especially on the weekends, but it is well worth the wait. I highly recommend the Turmeric latte with espresso. It is one of the best coffees I have ever had. The turmeric and espresso flavors are nicely balanced and not too sweet - this is an incredible 10/10 coffee. And while this is a coffee run down, do yourself a favor and get a bagel too.
Kru Coffee:
46 Marion Ave, Saratoga Springs, NY | 140 Glen Street, Glens Falls, NY
Kru Coffee is a small, family owned, coffee shop with lots of charm. Whether you visit the Saratoga or Glens Falls shop, they have a local vibe that makes you want to stay and enjoy your coffee and conversation with a friend. You can’t go wrong here but we loved the matcha latte with almond milk. It is a little on the sweeter side but not too grassy and a great all around matcha.
The Spot:
55 Railroad Place, Saratoga Springs, NY | 221 Glen Street, Glens Falls, NY
The Spot has big windows, lots of light and is a great spot to stay and sip awhile. They are a Buffalo based company who have been brewing craft coffee for 30 years. They have lots of pastries as well as breakfast and lunch foods. I recommend the Japanese Brewed Iced Coffee for a great and dependable ice coffee that is very crisp.
