Ambition Coffee & Eatery, Inc

Quirky and relaxed environment. Every time I eat here I find something new and fun on the walls I may have missed last time. Great place for brunch, lunch or dinner. Plenty of options to choose from, and haven’t been disappointed yet! Staff is always friendly and upbeat.

We stumbled upon this fabulous luncheon place. My mixed greens salad with chicken, feta, grapes and house made dressing was plentiful and very flavorable. The others had delicious sandwiches on pretzel bread and other salads. We had a very attentive pleasant waitress. A definite return if in Schenectady.

I loved the vintage artwork on the walls and the bottle caps that adorned the ceiling, it was so cheeky, and lovely! This place has a charm to it which I find cozy. It brought me back to my youth, when your friends bedroom was like an art gallery, a destination of peace. Also great food, my Lox sandwich was better than I imagined, so yummy! I had a chai latte that was absolutely scrumptious! Thanks for existing!

Nice place and friendly service. My only complaint food was not hot, and the bacon was not cooked crispy as requested. But will definitely give it another try.

So yummy and delish!! I just wish they would update the atmosphere. It is extremely dated and needs a serious makeover. It’s quite dark and dingy inside, like a bar. But the food more than makes up for it.

The dilemma with rating 5*s a small place like this is,... It's so perfect for you you may not want to draw in a bigger crowd but you want it to not struggle with keeping the doors open.
I believe this place has a great formula for success. They take a great location with easy access and tons of locate draws near by, add in some greasy spoon vibes and eccentric decorations, then (most importantly) add a perfect amount of portion sizes of food and plate spacing equal the place I wish I could have my wedding reception in.

Please get here and enjoy before they either appear in diners drive-in and dives or grow beyond this quaint local hot spot.

I've only ever had great experiences at Ambition. The staff are friendly, and the food is delicious. There's a great atmosphere between the catchy music that's always playing, and the colorful decorations adorning every inch of the walls and ceiling. Don't let 'Crabby' Marc scare you - he's the best!

Stopped here while waiting on a layover for Amtrak, great decision! I was able to get a nice mimosa, and the bacon and home fries are some of the best I ever had. The home fries are great, nice seasoning on them, I didn't need the extra salt I put on by habit. Prices are very reasonable, I would recommend this place to anyone. Only a few minutes walk from train station.

Funky little sandwich joint with fantastic names for their menu items. Always friendly service and amazing lattes (which is basically like the icing on the cake for me... or maybe the mayo on the sandwich? Lol I digress). I have yet to be disappointed. Keep up the good work!

Quaint and nostalgic. Menu - unique, trendy and healthy. On this day, with a party of 6, well received and somewhat timely. Most were not impressed with the food. One commented that the food was not as good as expected. Another said it was not up to its usual quality. May have been a tough day. Will try again.
