Back to Hudson Valley Field Guide

The Hudson Valley's cafes and bakeries are built on tradition. Daniel Leader has been baking Bread Alone's sourdough the same way since 1983, Simone Williams inherited a 30-year-old recipe at All You Knead in Beacon, and Arden Fuchs transformed a 1927 bank into Banque's chocolate shop and cocktail bar in Hudson. Coffee Labs in Tarrytown sources beans directly from farmers and roasts them daily. Scattered across fifteen towns—from Woodstock to Tarrytown, Kingston to Cold Spring—they range from full bakeries to coffee shops, a few blurring into restaurants and cocktail lounges.

Coffee Labs Roasters

Westchester's original third-wave roaster, more than two decades in: beans roasted on-site daily, bought direct from farmers, and brewed by baristas who'll explain the difference between a Kenyan pour-over and the house blend.
