Character Coffee

Some of the best coffee in Utica. Jesse really cares about the people he serves, and the coffee he serves to them. Don’t expect $1 McDonald’s coffee, because you get what you pay for in quality and community.

Charm is the word here. You can tuck in the corner, work, study, relax. Or hang at the bar and socialize with the locals and baristas. However you take your coffee shop experience, you can count on an expertly sourced and crafted coffee beverage. Also carrying an array of locally baked goodies, and teas. If you’re in a hurry, online ordering is available through Cloosiv. But don’t be in a hurry, take time to savor these special characters.

Surprise, surprise. Our best to the owners for quality and presentation. A pleasing culinary experience right here. This establishment certainly makes a visit to Utica, NY, worth it.

Great coffee with lots of variety & specialty drinks. The staff was very helpful & friendly. Indoor & outdoor seating available.

Very nice and charming place. The mocha cappuccino was amazing. The furniture was comfortable and there were plenty of places to relax.

The best place to get a cappuccino in the area. Also the maple latte is a favorite. They are always friendly and diligent about making exactly what I want.

Great coffee/espresso. They make a perfect espresso shot!!! Hard to find!

Stopped here during a drive from Buffalo to New Hampshire and was not expecting to find such an amazing cup of coffee! I’ll be stopping again for sure!

Honey lavender latte was the best. Great attitude in employees.

I love the lattes. Flavorful, creamy, wonderful! Have tried them in several other places, just to see, and nothing comes close!
