Allan's Coffee & Tea

Such a great little coffee shop tucked away in Albany! Emma was so sweet with her recommendations and the watermelon lemonade she made me was delicious! The pastries are also so yummy, highly recommend the blackberry danish! Lots of indoor and outdoor seating in a peaceful environment!

Quiet , a bit out-of-the-way place. The beverages are great and the bakery goodies are yummy. Very good place for meeting friends or colleagues for conversation. They always seem to have space and don't mind if you linger.

When it's quiet, it's a wonderful place to be. Peaceful, delicious menu, and usually nice service.

When it's loud, I hope you have headphones, because it gets very difficult to concentrate. One guy usually starts shout-talking when there's no noise, and then all chaos breaks loose trying to talk above one another.

Still, that's here and there. This is a beautiful shop and I especially like their teas and energy drinks.

I had a fantastic Mayan Hot Chocolate and Cruffin, both were very good and it was a great place to hang out. The MHC had great flavor and the right amount of Hearn the Cruffin was nice and light flakey with great sweetness!

Every time I come in the staff is extremely friendly, kind, and the drinks and pastries are delicious. I’ve been buying a bag of beans every week for the last year or so. My ONLY frustration lately has been the new packaging of the beans. The opening is so tiny that every time I use the coffee grinder at the shop I lose several ounces of grinds in the process of getting the bag out. The plastic zipper also does not work well when grinds get stuck in it. The great coffee itself is the only reason I keep buying the bags, because otherwise the new packaging would send me elsewhere!

Great coffee, lovely selections of pastries breakfast items

I go here for a quick bite. I work close by so it's convenient. I like there chorizo breakfast burrito it used to come with chips, it even says it does on the menu. The last several times I got one it didn't. Not sure why the change.. They have good bagels, cruffins, even quiche. If you sign up for special offers you get a 1$ off your next purchase.

Great quiet place to catch up. Super friendly customer service and yummy coffee.

Keep in mind this was my very first visit but they have tables marked as taken that are not which is really limiting the seating (beyond the social distancing), the coffee was a quite sweet and my croissant that was heated was still cold in the middle, a good croissant though. I'd be willing to try again, but I'm not optimistic

This is a clean, nice little coffee shop. They don’t have much of a selection in the way of a lunch menu. I found their coffee to be to strong for my taste, so I didn’t finish it.
