Graham’s Coffee Parlor

Not sure how I heard about this place (Facebook?) and was driving by today and decided to check it out. Comfortable spot with a clean modern feel. Couldn't stay long so ordered a coffee to go and, oh what are those but blueberry lemon scones? The owner was behind the counter and cheerfully greeting each visitor while masterfully preparing the coffee. Did I mention the awesome blueberry lemon scone? Encouraging neighbors and friends to support this new locally owned shop. :)

Truly an experience! Graham's is a special place. As soon as you walk through the door you feel taken back in time to when you were a kid in the 80's. You almost expect a-ha or Madonna to come walking out to make your drink. The owner Katryn is super personable and makes you feel welcome. I'm working my way through the menu and everything I've had is delightful from the coffee to beetroot latte to the juice to the pastries. Everything is made to perfection. I really love how they have some flavors that you don't see many places like cardamom maple, beetroot, even bloody Mary flavors. This place is a gem!

Awesome local coffee shop. Fantastic cold brew!

The perfect local coffee shop that Albany always needed. The menu is solid and coffee is exceptional. The staff is extremely friendly and always smiling (thru their masks of course). Highly recommend supporting this local small business. Try their Lavender Bee Latte/Iced Latte, it’s delicious!

This is a cute little place with friendly staff. The coffee drinks I've had here are all very well made, and the juices seem very popular as well, judging by the screeching juicer blades behind the counter. The place is cleverly decorated with a variety of seating and a rotating diorama (!), and nice bright windows. It seems to attract mostly people passing by, many becoming regulars, with a few small groups sitting to talk. Parking can be a little tight sometimes.

Graham’s is a winner on many levels. The food and drinks are delicious and they have both a wide variety of items while also not such a huge menu that you’re overwhelmed. They have the cutest decor and merch. They know their brand and it’s all around fabulous!

How can you put absolute perfection into words for a review.
The feeling you get when you walk in, how clean it is, the smell coffee being prepared, the smiles, and an overall feeling of welcome and this is where you should be. Pick anything on the menu, there options, fresh ingredients, and just an atmosphere that is addicting. Make sure to stop by on the weekends for their amazing Grahamwhich which is my favorite!

Such a cute atmosphere, makes you want to stay all day! I tried an iced decaf latte and it was alright! My husband had a smoothie which was really good. I definitely want to try more of the food/drinks, everything looked so good. Great staff!

Some of the best coffee I've had in a while great pastries to.

Graham's Coffee Parlor is the absolute best coffee shop in the 518. While this place was under construction, I waited patiently as the owner helped build this place by hand. Driving by seeing the hard working going into it. When it finally opened, I was greeted very warmly. It was such an inviting and fun atmosphere with wonderful employees clearly happy to be where they were. Clearly proud of the work they were putting into each and every cup. It's gotten to the point that when I walk up, they know my name and order.

During this crazy time, Graham's goes the extra mile to protect its staff and customers. Offering window service, take out, and even a cute little front area with tables and chairs to sit in. I still think you guys need a pink flamingo and a lawn gnome, but that's just personal taste. 😂

I really appreciate the hard work everyone at Graham's puts into giving us all a little normalcy in this crazy time. When you find a business that doesn't treat you like a customer, but like a human being, you know that this business will be successful.

Stop going to Starbucks, stop going to Dunkin, support local. Support good people. You won't regret it after you get a taste of their coffee. Even their food choices are delicious. Get a grahamwhich on the weekend. It will change the way you make breakfast.
