Ugly Duck Coffee

Wonderful coffee sources from a variety of local and non-local roasters. Expertly pulled shots and very friendly, proud baristas. One of my favorite spots in Rochester. Love it! Can't wait to go back!

Professional coffee, great baristas and cozy place, I glad I stopped for coffee here :)

I liked the cafe, great atmosphere and nice staff. It could be somewhat bigger, for all the coffee fans to sit, relax and chit- chat. This place is very popular- not only for locals, it was quite packed on a Sunday morning. They are dog friendly. Oh, I almost forgot- I loved their coffee :) Good place for vegans, they have multiple non- dairy options for a surcharge. Coffee beans and other small gifts are available to purchase.

The best maple latte I have ever had! I haven’t had coffee this delicious since Seattle! Definitely a must try! 🤤🤤🤤

Awesome coffee and a good atmosphere. We love the seating outside as well. The location is a convenient walk to downtown and a few good museums and art places. The croissants were fantastic as well - try a red-eye with an almond croissant!

Food. Coffee is legit. The mocha is nice, I find in recent years everyone has been going strong coffee, dark chocolate, serious mocha. This one is lighter, more towards the chocolate side than the coffee side. I had their The Snug and that was excellent as well.

Service. Good. Everyone was nice.

Atmosphere. Tables are quite small, so don't expect parties of 3 or 4 to use laptops or textbooks. There's no wifi. Washroom is clean. If you dine in, just come expecting to enjoy the coffee otherwise their set up is better for a grab and go.

It's cute quaint and fast and efficient. Nice walk quiet and polite in there reminds me of the 90s and I'll definitely will be back .

Besides the coffee, the baristas at Ugly Duck are the best! I forgot my phone at the shop on a Friday afternoon and retraced my steps a few hours later, and lo and behold they were hanging onto it.

Sometimes finding seating and connecting to wifi can be challenging, but great coffee.

The most excellent coffee in Rochester. I've tried almost every specialty drink on the menu, and I can confidentially say that you can't go wrong with any choice. My highest recommends are any of their iced lattes, the Lavendar Menace, and their limited Pumpking Coffee Slushie ❤️

I was impressed to find this little place. It is very comfortable and the coffee was great
They even have a choice of milk for the coffee.
